Hi guys, new member here. I have the VCODEC problem on my PC and from looking on your logs its a pretty common problem . I see you guys do some great work, so i hope its possible you will be able to help me. I saw on the logs that you require a hijackthis log, so i scanned my PC and i will paste the results below.

Thanks, Blencs

Also, just thought id mention i ran McAfee virus scan and spybot and it would delete only to reappear. Spy Falcon always pops up, along with a message from desktop saying Virus Alert. Cheers.

Hi Blencs82 and welcome to the Geeks to Go Forums.

My name is Trevuren and I will be helping you with your log.


Removal Instructions:Step 1:

• Print out these instructions as we will need to close every window that is open later in the fix.
• Download FixSF.reg to your desktop by right clicking on the following link and then selecting Save Link As or Save File as, depending on your browser.
  • Confirm that the file FixSF.reg now resides on your desktop as we will need it later.
• 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.
  • If you look on your desktop you will now see a folder called smitRem.
• Go to your desktop and double click on the FixSF.reg file that you downloaded earlier. When it asks if you would like to merge the information, press the Yes button and then the OK button.

Step 2:

• Next, please reboot your computer into SafeMode by doing the following:
  • Restart your computer.
  • After hearing your computer beep once during startup, but before the Windows icon appears, press F8.
  • Select the first option, to run Windows in Safe Mode.
  • When you are at the logon prompt, log in as an Administrator.
• When your computer has started in SafeMode and you see the desktop.
• Click on Start > Control Panel > Double-click on the Add or Remove Programs icon.
• Find the entry for SpyFalcon and double-click on it. Follow the prompts to uninstall the program, but do not allow it to reboot the computer if it asks.
• Delete the following files and folders (Do not be concerned if this folder does not exist):
  • C:\Windows\System32\dxmpp.dll <-- File
  • C:\Windows\System32\ginuerep.dll <-- File
  • C:\Program Files\SpyFalcon\ <-- Folder
• Close all Windows.

Step 3:

• Open the smitRem folder, then double click the RunThis.bat file to start the tool. Follow the prompts on screen.
• If there is an uninstaller present for an infection that smitRem removes it will start this uninstaller.
• Simply click on the Uninstall button and allow the uninstaller to finish. When it is completed, it will close automatically and smitRem will prompt you to continue. Now you should press any key to continue.
• 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.
• Next go to Control Panel click Display > Desktop > Customize Desktop > Web > Uncheck "Security Info" if present.

Step 4:

• Reboot your system back into Normal Mode and perform an online scan with Panda ActiveScan
  • Once you are on the Panda site click the Scan your PC button.
  • A new window will open...click the Check Now button.[list]
  • 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 Local Disks 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 ActiveScan report, along with a new HijackThis Log, the contents of smitfiles.txt by using Add Reply.


Regards,

Trevuren

Reconfigure Windows XP to hide hidden files:

Here are some tips to reduce the potential for spyware infection in the future:

Make sure you keep your Windows OS current by visiting Windows update
regularly to download and install any critical updates and service packs. With out these you are leaving the backdoor open.

I strongly recommend installing the following applications:

• Spywareblaster <= SpywareBlaster will prevent spyware from being installed.
• Spywareguard <= SpywareGuard offers realtime protection from spyware installation attempts.
• How to use Ad-Aware to remove Spyware <= If you suspect that you have spyware installed on your computer, here are instructions on how to download, install and then use Ad-Aware.
• How to use Spybot to remove Spyware <= If you suspect that you have spyware installed on your computer, here are instructions on how to download, install and then use Spybot. Similar to Ad-Aware, I strongly recommend both to catch most spyware.

To protect yourself further:

• Spyad <= IE/Spyad places over 4000 websites and domains in the IE Restricted list which will severely impair attempts to infect your system. It basically prevents any downloads (Cookies etc) from the sites listed, although you will still be able to connect to the sites.
• MVPS Hosts file <= The MVPS Hosts file replaces your current HOSTS file with one containing well know ad sites etc. Basically, this prevents your coputer from connecting to those sites by redirecting them to 127.0.0.1 which is your local computer
• Google Toolbar <= Get the free google toolbar to help stop pop up windows.

And also see TonyKlein's good advice
So how did I get infected in the first place? (My Favorite)
