Hi,
A couple of weeks ago, my computer got infected by Spysheriff and BraveSentry. Internet Explorer Homepage was changed and the background of the Desktop got white. A new restore point was automatically created and all the previous ones were deleted (so long for my brilliant idea of restoring…).
I have carefully read many post on this site and followed the steps that were helpful to others to clean their machine. I don’t seem to have the above mentioned intruders anymore, but my computer is still awfully slow (for exemple, a Spybot scan used to take 20 min, it now takes up to 2 hours). Also, whenever I run the tools you guys recommend (AdAware, Panda, Spybot, etc.), I keep finding and removing bugs, which come back at reboot. By the way, 3 out of 4 times I run these tools, I get an error message, saying that it needs to close (sometimes the debug button works, sometimes it doesn’t), which I think is not a good sign. My Internet Explorer Homepage keeps changing to MSN.com and in general, my computer is not “acting normal”.
So my guess is, I still have some “residue” of the Malware/Spyware/Adware that won’t leave so easily.
Sorry in advance for the length of this post, but I try to give you the more details I can. So here is what I have done up to now:
I have followed the steps indicated in the “How to remove SpySheriff” that I found in the “Before you post a Hijack log” post;
(Safe Mode) SmitRem <Report below>
(Safe Mode) AdAware
(Safe Mode) Ewido – which is now AVG Anti-Spyware <Report below>
Panda Active Scan <Report below>
I then followed all other steps explained in the “Before you post a Hijack log” post;
CleanUp
AdAware <Report below>
(Safe Mode) CWShedder - Nothing Found
Spybot <Printscreen of results attached in Word document> Spybot_2006.10.14.doc 79.5KB 13 downloads
AVG Virus Scan – Nothing Found
Trend Micro Online Virus Scan – Nothing Found
And finally, a HijackThis log.
If someone could take a look at all this, it would be very appreciated.
