[Nickumd]

I've been receiving popups for over a month now to sites with titles such as search the web, find the right school, search inqwire, registry cleaner, and WinAntiVirus Pro 2006. I've tried so many things to get this crap off but nothing has worked. Oh yeah and the sites that pop up always have to do with where I'm going... "find the right school" comes up when I go to a .edu website... thanks.

Hi Nickumd, and welcome to Geeks to Go.

I'm currently analyzing your log, and will post instructions to start with the clean up soon .

Hi Nickumd, and welcome to Geeks to Go.

I'm currently analyzing your log, and will post instructions to start with the clean up soon .

[Antartic-Boy]

-----------------------1

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

Place a shortcut to Panda ActiveScan on your desktop (in Internet Explorer, right click on Panda ActiveScan link select "Copy Shortcut" then right click on your desktop and select "Paste Shortcut" or in FireFox right-click the link and select "Save Link As" and save it to your desktop).

Please download the trial version of ewido anti-malware here:
http://www.ewido.net/en/download/

Please read Ewido Setup Instructions
Install it, and update the definitions to the newest files. Do NOT run a scan yet.

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!

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.

-----------------------2

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.


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


Run Ewido:

• Click on scanner
• Click on Complete System Scan and the scan will begin.
• While the scan is in progress you will be prompted to clean files, click OK
• When it asks if you want to clean the first file, put a check in the lower left corner of the box that says "Perform action on all infections" then choose clean and click OK.
• Once the scan has completed, there will be a button located on the bottom of the screen named Save report
• Click Save report.
• Save the report .txt file to your desktop.

Close ewido anti-malware.

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

-----------------------3

Reboot back into Windows and click the Panda ActiveScan shortcut.

• Once you are on the Panda site click the Scan your PC button.
• A new window will open...click the Check Now button.
  • Enter your Country
  • Enter your State/Province
  • Enter your e-mail address and click send
  • Select either Home User or Company
  • Click the big Scan Now button
• If it wants to install an ActiveX component allow it
• It will start downloading the files it requires for the scan (Note: It may take a couple of minutes)
• When the download is complete, click on My Computer to start the scan
• When the scan completes, if anything malicious is detected, click the See Report button, then Save Report and save it to a convenient location.

Post the contents of the Panda scan report, along with a new HijackThis Log, the contents of smitfiles.txt and the Ewido Log by using Add Reply.
Let us know if any problems persist.

[Nickumd]

ok, I'm on it... thanks!

[Antartic-Boy]

Please follow steps from 1-3 and post the results in your next reply..

[Nickumd]

Great job it appears your logfile is clean.

The following is a list of tools and utilities that I like to suggest to people. This list is full of great tools and utilities to help you understand how you got infected and how to keep from getting infected again.

• Spybot Search & Destroy - Uber powerful tool which can search and annhilate nasties that make it onto your system. Now with an Immunize section that will help prevent future infections.
  
• AdAware - Another very powerful tool which searches and kills nasties that infect your system. AdAware and Spybot Search & Destroy compliment each other very well.
• SpywareBlaster - Great prevention tool to keep nasties from installing on your system.
  
• SpywareGuard - Works as a Spyware "Shield" to protect your computer from getting malware in the first place.
  
• IE-SpyAd - puts over 5000 sites in your restricted zone so you'll be protected when you visit innocent-looking sites that aren't actually innocent at all.
• CleanUP! - Cleans temporary files from IE and Windows, empties the recycle bin and more. Great tool to help speed up your computer and knock out those nasties that like to reside in the temp folders.
• Windows Updates - It is very important to make sure that both Internet Explorer and Windows are kept current with the latest critical security patches from Microsoft. To do this just start Internet Explorer and select Tools > Windows Update, and follow the online instructions from there.
• Google Toolbar - Free google toolbar that allows you to use the powerful Google search engine from the bar, but also blocks pop up windows.
• Trillian or Miranda-IM - These are Malware free Instant Messenger programs which allow you to connect to multiple IM services in one program! (AOL, Yahoo, ICQ, IRC, MSN)

To find out more information about how you got infected in the first place and some great guidelines to follow to prevent future infections you can read this article by Tony Klein

Thanks for all the help but I am still having the popup problem strong as ever. Any more ideas?

[Antartic-Boy]

Can you tell me when exactly are those popups showing? Maybe when you visit some specific web site?

[Nickumd]

I'll try to look for the majority of the popups...

one that always comes up when I go to www.blackboard.com has the title "Online Degree" and the URL for the image displayed in the popup is http://cv.qkilbdr.ne...ient-yellow.gif

when I go to any university of maryland website a popup titled "Find the Right School" comes up with a very similar url (http://cv.qkilbdr.net/ something)

This doesn’t always happen but just now when I went to facebook.com a popup with the title “http://t.trafficmp.com/b.t/emgy/1758902073” comes up, but it’s an ad for Sylvan learning center. The URL for the image in this popup is http://spe.atdmt.com...720x300_100.gif.

When I go to McAfee.com, I get ads for “The Shield 2006,” “WinAntiVirus Pro 2006,” and “Registry Cleaner.” The URL of “The Shield” popup is http://www.pcsecurit...K&affid571&pu=2. The URL for the Registry Cleaner is http://cdn.fastclick...id1162/nice.gif.

Also some popups come on random sites like an ad for “Home123” with a URL of http://cache.traffic...05121310443.htm


I hope this information helps... let me know if you want me to look other stuff up.
