I had like 10 million different trojans, it was a miracle that my computer didn't crash. But I started using McAfee anitspyware to get rid of them. After the first time, it got rid of almost all of them. I tried installing Spybot Search and Destroy, and the trojan would cancel the installation. As well as Ad-ware, in the middle of the scan it would cancel the Ad-aware scan. It would just get out of the scan.

After a few more scans, and getting rid of other trojans/viruses, my computer would soon was able to completely install Spybot Search and Destroy. Adware was able to completey run. But, with McAfee, I keep on scanning and it keeps on finding Proxy-Raser and/or Proxy-Raser.dr. When the seach is over, it gives me the option to delete the files. But, after I delete the files, I run McAfee again to find out that it has reproduced into a different folder. Sometimes it is in \system32 , or sometimies it was in some unaccessable files.

I downloaded Killbox, which is a program that deletes annoying programs like this when they are un-deletable files. When i tried, it tried to and said that it couldn't. Soon I ran another virus scan to find out that it had infected Killbox.

Also, I would try to go to the Task Manager, but when I press Crtl+Alt+Del, it comes up with the usual professional menu that gives the option to either Shutdown, Log Off, ect.... . But, Task Manager is shaded and cannot be accessed.

Can anybody help me with Proxy-Raser or Proxy-Raser.dr ???? It is very tricky, but I would appritiate some help. Thanks!

Hi :whistling:

Download and run the following HijackThis autoinstall program from Here . Please choose the default location of C:\Program Files\ as the destination. HJT needs to be in its own folder so that the program itself isn't deleted by accident. Having the backups could be VITAL to restoring your system if something went wrong in the FIX process!
  • Run HijackThis
  • Click SCAN and SAVE LOG. (a notepad window will open with the log in it when you click Save Log) (Ctrl-A to'select all', Ctrl-C to 'copy')
  • POST the log into this thread using 'Add Reply' (Ctrl-V to 'paste')
DO NOT MAKE ANY CHANGES OR CLICK "FIX CHECKED" UNTIL WE CHECK THE LOG, AS MOST OF THE FILES ARE LEGIT AND VITAL TO THE FUNCTION OF YOUR COMPUTER

Ok....well I think that I managed to get rid of the Proxy-Raser becuase it's not coming up under the scans. But, it turns there were two other trojans, one was easy and was cleaned up easy with Ad-aware. But, now there is something called AlfaCleaner. ?!?. I do not know what this is, but i do know that when Ad-aware finds it, almost a minute later, Ad-Aware is shut down. Same when i do a search on Windows, it just closes after a few minutes. My guess is that when AlfaCleaner is detected, it closes out of the search. I have no idea if this is right, but it's just a geuss. I just ran Hijackthis and here is the report.

We can definitely help you, but first you need to help us. The first step in this process is to apply Service Pack 1a for Windows XP. Without this update, you're wide open to re-infection, and we're both just wasting our time.

Apply the update, reboot, and post a fresh Hijack This log.
