Hi! I hope someone can help me...please. I've had the Intell32 & PSGuard in my computer for over a week now and can't get rid of it despite lots of downloading and many suggestions.
Here's what I have downloaded and tried to no avail:

*HijackThis
*AutoRuns
*KillBox
*SmitRem
*Adware Away
*AdAwareSE
*SpywareBlaster
*SpyBot Search & Destroy (now gone)
*CWShredder

The only thing that's ever been close to indentifying anything useful has been

"AdAwareSE"

It came up with this...

Ad-Aware SE LOG entry:
----------------
Malware.Psguard Object Recognized!
Type : Regkey
Data :
TAC Rating : 7
Category : Malware
Comment :
Rootkey : HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT
Object : clsid\{357a87ed-3e5d-437d-b334-deb7eb4982a3}

_______________________________________________________________________

Object Details Per Ad-Aware SE Above Log:
-----------------------------------------
Name: Malware.Psguard
Catagory: Malware
Object TYpe: RegKey
Size: 0 Bytes
Location: clsid\{357a87ed-3e5d-437d-b334-deb7eb4982a3}\
Last Activity: 8-31-05
Relevance: Low
TAC Rating: 7

Comment:
--------
Program masks as doing one thing, but does another.
_______________________________________________________

I've tried removing this particular Registry Key, but it returns immediately.
Also...

SmitRem has claimed this:

Wininet.DLL has been identified as infected
But no other stats or info given as to why or
how to fix

I do not have a Windows disk so I've been cautious as to what I do. I've tried MANY different fixes and I'm getting desperate.

HijackThis gets rid of it...and it returns upon connecting to the internet. ALL of the above downloads seem to work...then all the problems return upon connection to the internet. Any new advice would be much appreciated...thanks and will await instructions...:tazz:

If you're still having trouble, We'll need you to use a free diagnostic tool, Hijack This. Follow the instructions in step five of this guide, and reply here with your log.

Most of what Hijack This lists lists will be harmless or even essential, DO NOT delete or modify anything yet! Someone will be along to tell you what steps to take after you post the contents of the scan results.

Now, the following entry has been removed removed MANY times...it returns immediately upon access to the internet. Even though the removals take place in "Safe Mode".

O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [intell32.exe] C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM\intell32.exe

Also, this "path" has been destryed via "KillBox" and all the other above mentioned tools. Also, in Safe Mode.

AdAwareSE seemingly gets rid of it, but it returns right away with each new scan. Whether you access internet or not...

I also have a copy of my HJT log without the Intell32...if you need it for some reason.

Will await further instructions and or ideas...much thanks:)

Online

Download smitRem.exe and save the file to your desktop.
Double click on the file to extract it to it's own folder on the desktop.

If you have not already installed Ad-Aware SE 1.06, follow these download and setup instructions, otherwise, check for updates:
Ad-Aware SE Setup
Don't run it yet!

Now go offline

Next, please reboot your computer in SafeMode by doing the following:
  • Restart your computer
  • After hearing your computer beep once during startup, but before the Windows icon appears, press F8.
  • Instead of Windows loading as normal, a menu should appear
  • Select the first option, to run Windows in Safe Mode.
Open the smitRem folder, then double click the RunThis.bat file to start the tool. Follow the prompts on screen.
Wait for the tool to complete and disk cleanup to finish

The tool will create a log named smitfiles.txt in the root of your drive, eg; Local Disk C: or partition where your operating system is installed. Please post that log along with all others requested in your next reply.


Reboot

Online

Go to Start->Run and type in notepad and hit OK. Then copy and paste the following into Notepad:

copy c:\windows\system\wininet.dll c:\windows\desktop
del copy.bat


Save the file as "copy.bat". Make sure to save it with the quotes. Double click on it.


Scan the desktop folder with E trust web scanner. When done, make sure the box is check for wininet.dll and click cure.


Go to Start->Run and type in notepad and hit OK. Then copy and paste the following into Notepad:

del c:\windows\system\wininet.dll
del c:\windows\system\oleadm.dll
del c:\windows\system\oleext.dll
copy c:\windows\desktop\wininet.dll c:\windows\system
del delete.bat


Save the file as "delete.bat". Make sure to save it with the quotes. Double click on it.

Open Ad-aware and do a full scan. Remove all it finds.

Next go to Control Panel->Display->Desktop->Customize Desktop->Web-> Uncheck 'Security Info' if present.

post a new HijackThis log, and the contents of the smitfiles.txt log.
