The reason that you take the PC offline is so that if anything nasty tries to "phone home" during the removal process, it can't get through.
Stick it back online and run it for 24 hours - including at least one reboot. Once you've given it a bit of a workout, let me have one last HJT log and tell me how it's behaving.

Okay, it is definitely better, almost seems clean, but I am still getting occasional popups. I don't seem to be getting multiple popups at a time or redirects anymore. Also, don't know if it matters, but probably 50% or more of the time the popup will be for partypoker.com.

Here's the latest HJT log:

Also, should I be worried about the line:

O15 - Trusted Zone: *.elitemediagroup.net

I know I've seen that elitemediagroup.net is spyware before...

If you didn't install these, do the following:

1) Run HijackThis as you did to generate a log, but this time click on 'Do a system scan only'.
Place a checkmark in the boxes to the left of the following entries, by clicking on them:

O9 - Extra button: PartyPoker.com - {B7FE5D70-9AA2-40F1-9C6B-12A255F085E1} - C:\Program Files\PartyGaming\PartyPoker\RunApp.exe
O9 - Extra 'Tools' menuitem: PartyPoker.com - {B7FE5D70-9AA2-40F1-9C6B-12A255F085E1} - C:\Program Files\PartyGaming\PartyPoker\RunApp.exe
O9 - Extra button: PartyPoker.net - {F4430FE8-2638-42e5-B849-800749B94EED} - C:\Program Files\PartyGaming.Net\PartyPokerNet\RunPF.exe
O9 - Extra 'Tools' menuitem: PartyPoker.net - {F4430FE8-2638-42e5-B849-800749B94EED} - C:\Program Files\PartyGaming.Net\PartyPokerNet\RunPF.exe


CLOSE ALL OPEN WINDOWS AND BROWSERS - EXCEPT HJT and click on Fix checked

2) Remove the following folders:

Folders

C:\Program Files\PartyGaming.Net
C:\Program Files\PartyGaming


As an example:
To delete C:\WINDOWS\system32\foldertogo
Double click the My Computer icon on your Desktop.
Double click on Local Disc (C:)
Double click on the Windows folder,
Double click on the System 32 folder,
Right click on foldertogo and from the menu that appears, click on 'Delete'


~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I usually leave the O15s until last because if the malicious file that did this is still present, it will just do it again. As I think you're about done, do the following:

Download DelDomains.inf from here and save it to your Desktop.
* If you use Firefox, right click the link and from the menu that appears, click on Save Link As... *

Right click on DelDomains.inf and from the menu that appears, click on Install.

* Please Note: If you use SpywareBlaster and/or IE/Spyads, it will be necessary to re-install the protection both afford. For SpywareBlaster, run the program and re-protect all items. For IE/Spyads, run the batch file and reinstall the protection *

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Run the PC for 48 hours, rebooting at least once, and give it a good workout and then post a fresh HJT log and let me know how it's behaving and we'll take it from there.

I didn't remove the PartyPoker references because I installed those intentionally, and it seemed like you were saying they were probably only representative of a threat if I *hadn't* chosen to install them myself.

I did run the .inf you pointed me to, and will keep tabs on the machine for a few more days. Thanks.

Well, unfortunately there doesn't seem to be a change after running that last program. I'm still getting rouge popups every 10-15 clicks, and occasionally I get a little Google icon that pops up in the quick start bar saying that something is trying to change my homepage, which I don't allow it to do.

Here's the latest HJT log:

About a month and a half. Obviously I could've had problems that never revealed themselves before, but until clicking a bad link that I immediately regretted shortly before starting this thread, I never had noticed a single hiccup, popup, redirect, etc. I initially didn't install AV because the Norton that I have makes my other computers slow as dirt and this one's *almost* entirely used as an HTPC, which I can't afford to lose any speed on. Looks like a great decision now though, huh!

The best advice I can give is to reformat the PC as it cannot be guaranteed 100% clean. You also have the problem that malicious files may have made changes to your OS that will make it more likely that it will be infected in the future.
If you don't want to, or can't, then don't use it for anything that involves personal information - bank details, credit card numbers etc... just to be on the safe side.

If you still want to carry on with cleaning it up, do the following:

Download the 14 day trial of Webroot's Spy Sweeper from here.
Once the download has completed, double click the file to begin installation.
During the installation you will be given the option to check for updates - click the button to allow it to do so.
Once the installation has completed, your PC will need to be rebooted.

Once your PC has rebooted, open Spy Sweeper:
  • Click the Options button.
  • Select the Update Tab.
  • Click Update Spy Sweeper.
  • I.E. will open displaying a page from the Spy Sweeper website - you can close this as Spy Sweeper will continue to update regardless.
Once the updates have all been downloaded:
  • Select the Sweep Tab.
  • Check all the boxes under "Items to Sweep" and "Other Options".
  • Now click the Start Sweep button.
Once the scan has completed, Spy Sweeper will display the results of the scan. If anything has been found, click Quarantine Selected.
If you are asked to allow a reboot, do so - if not, manually reboot your PC anyway.

Once the PC has rebooted, open Spy Sweeper:
  • Click the Options button on the left.
  • Select the Sweep Tab again.
  • Click the "View Session Log link in the bottom right hand corner.
  • Click the Save to File button - by default the log will be saved as Spy Sweeper Sessions Log.txt in My Documents.
Copy and paste this into your next reply along with a fresh HJT log AND a description of how your PC is behaving.

I'm pretty hesitant to format at this point and start over, not because of the time involved, but because HTPCs are really tricky to "tweak" properly to get the playback as good as possible - especially with HDTV - and mine's working really well right now. I did run the Spy Sweeper, then ran it again (which found one more result) then ran it a third time (which came up clean) - all with reboots in between. I'll put the two logs that found something in this post and the newest HJT in the next.

In the hour or so I've browsed on this machine since running the multiple Spy Sweeper sweeps, I have yet to notice a problem, so that's good!

The HJT log looks OK, and if the PC's playing nicely then i'd say that it was about done.
Do be aware that with the length of time that it spent without protection, there may have been system changes that make it more likely that it will be infected in the future.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

KAV will run out shortly and you'll need a decent firewall as well, so read on:

Avg Free Edition: Available here.
avast! 4 Home Edition: Available here
AntiVir PersonalEdition Classic :Available here

While you can download them all to see which one you prefer, only install one at a time - running two or more anti-virus programs simultaneously can cause conflicts resulting in less, not more, protection.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

While the SP2 firewall is better than nothing, it doesn't monitor outgoing traffic, so anything malicious on your computer can 'phone home' at will.
There are a couple of free firewalls available.
Zone Alarm: Available here.
Kerio: Available here.

Again, while you can download both to see which one you prefer, only install one at a time - running two or more firewalls simultaneously can cause conflicts resulting in less, not more, protection.

Download the installation files and then log off from the internet before you uninstall KAV and stick your choice on.
I've used AVG in the past and both my PC's are using Zone Alarm at the moment without issues, but any combination will do.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

You are running an old version of Sun Java which needs updating:
  • Go here and click on the Download button to the right of Java Runtime Environment (JRE) 5.0 Update 8.
  • Accept the license agreement by clicking the radio button.
  • Under Windows Platform - J2SE™ Runtime Enviroment 5.0 Update 8, click the Windows Offline Installation, Multi-language link.
  • Go to Add/Remove Programs and remove any entries that refer to Java 2 Runtime Enviroment and then reboot your PC.
  • Navigate to and delete the following folder, if it exists: C:\Program Files\Java.
  • Finally double click the installation file that you downloaded earlier.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

As long as the above goes OK, I want you to run your PC as normal for a few days. When you are happy that everything is fine, do the following:

Update your anti-virus program,
Disable System Restore,
Boot into Safe Mode,
Scan your computer for viruses.
When you get the all clear, reboot into Normal Mode.
Re-enable System Restore,
Create a Restore Point.
This will give a clean Restore Point should you need it in the future.
A tutorial for System Restore is available here.

The reason for waiting is that if removing the malware has caused a problem, which it occasionally does, you can put your PC back to how it was before the fix. This will re-install the malware, but an infected PC is better than an expensive paperweight!

Some bedtime reading: This is a very good tutorial about keeping your computer safe and secure on the internet.

Wow, what an excellent help you have been! I'll do as you say and post back next week sometime with the latest update... The only thing I'm likely to hold off on for now (unless there's a serious problem in doing so) is updating Java, simply because the Java installation is *very* key to proper playback issues with the HTPC. Otherwise, thanks so much for the links to the AV and FW products. I may try installing NAV again (which I already have a current copy of sitting around) now that the computer seems "clean" to see if it'll install now. If not, I'll check out the options you listed.

Thanks again! Cheers to you... :whistling:
