I can't access certain sites I know are not just down such as http://www.tweetsie.com (my wife's computer picks it up just fine). I'm fairly computer savvy but can't figure this one out. I followed your instructions for posting the hijackthis log exactly, so I hope you can help me. Thanks!

Hello leaper1976 and welcome to Geeks to Go

As an introduction, please note that I am not Superhuman, I do not know everything, but what I do know has taken me years to learn. I am happy to pass on this information to you, but please bear in mind that I am also fallible.

ALL staff here at Geeks To Go are volunteers, please bear that in mind if I don’t answer your post quickly; I give what time I can.

Please note that you should have Administrator rights to perform the fixes. Also note that multiple identity PC’s (family PC’s) present a different problem; please tell me if your PC has more than one individual’s setting, but continue with the fix.

Before we get underway, you may wish to print these instructions for easy reference during the fix, although please be aware that many of the required URLs are hyperlinks in the red names shown on your screen. Part of the fix may require you to be in Safe Mode, which will not allow you to access the internet, or my instructions! (Click the Options drop down near the upper right of the topic. Select Print this topic.)

You have been hijacked by those wonderful people in either Belarus or the Ukraine, and your surfing is now via them. This normally results in the Wareout infection. Let’s see what we can do.

Firstly could you please disable Windows Defender from running during the fix, it may just hinder our attempts to change anything. Open Windows Defender, click Tools, click Options, under Real-time protection options, clear the Use real-time protection check box, click Save

Please disable SuperAntispyware. Right-click on the shortcut from the system tray, choose View Control Center (preferences/options), on the General and Startup tab, uncheck, Start SUPERAntispyware when Windows starts, click Close to exit.

Also please disable AVGas Guard from running for the same reason/as it will hinder our attempts to change anything. Right click on the multicoloured icon with an S, in the taskbar (near the clock) and uncheck Resident Shield. The icon will change to a grey colour.

When your PC has been declared clean, please only enable one of those three programmes to run in real-time. All others should be used as “on demand” scanners. Having more than one antispyware programme running in real-time will cause slowness and even conflicts.

Go to Start > Run and type or copy & paste this into the Run box:

sc delete WinVNC4

Hit ENTER

Please download FixWareout from one of these sites:
http://downloads.sub.../Fixwareout.exe
http://www.bleepingc.../Fixwareout.exe

Save it to your desktop and run it. Click Next, then Install, make sure "Run fixit" is checked and click Finish.

The fix will begin; follow the prompts. You will be asked to reboot your computer; please do so. Your system may take longer than usual to load; this is normal.

Once the desktop loads a text file will open (report.txt), you can close it - the file has already been saved.

Run HijackThis. Click "Do a System Scan Only", and place a check next to the following items (if found):

Click FIX CHECKED. Close HijackThis.

Go to Control Panel. - If you are using Windows XP's Category View, select the Network and Internet Connections category. If you are in Classic View, go to the next step .

CAUTION!: It is possible that your Internet Service Provider requires specific settings here. Make sure you know if you need specific DNS settings here or not before you proceed to make the following changes or you may lose your internet connection. If you are sure you do not need a specific DNS address here, you may proceed.

• Double-click the Network Connections icon
• Right-click the Local Area Connection icon and select Properties.
• Hilight Internet Protocol (TCP/IP) and click the Properties button.
• Be sure Obtain DNS server address automatically is selected.
• OK your way out.

Next bit

• Go to Start > Run and type in cmd
• Click OK.
• This will open a command prompt.
• Type or copy and paste the following line in the command window:

ipconfig /flushdns

• Hit Enter
• Exit the command window
• Restart your computer.

Finally, please post the contents of the text file that opened earlier (you can find it at C:\fixwareout\report.txt), along with a new HijackThis log, from normal mode, into this topic.

Hello Brian

You appear to have normal routing for your surfing, the hijack is no more.

Your HJT log looks fine, albeit a little heavy on start-ups. This fix is entirely optional, just my recommendation. It will not cause any harm to your system but it will give you back some resources and improve your boot up time. Please note that I am leaving Windows Defender in situ with your real-time scanning allowance, the others I have disabled but you can and should still use them for on demand scanning. Always remember to update first.

Go to Start > Run and type or copy & paste this into the Run box:

sc delete WinVNC4

Hit ENTER

Go to Start > Run and type or copy & paste this into the Run box:

sc delete AVG Anti-Spyware Guard

Rescan with HijackThis. Close all programmes leaving only HijackThis running. Place a checkmark or tick against the following:

Congratulations! your new log is clean. Just a little bit more to do to prevent further infection.

Reset and Re-enable your System Restore to remove bad files that have been backed up by Windows. The files in System Restore are protected to prevent any programmes changing them. This is the only way to clean these files: (You will lose all previous restore points which are likely to be infected.)

To reset your restore points, please note that you will need to log into your computer with an account which has full administrator access. You will know if the account has administrator access because you will be able to see the System Restore tab. If the tab is missing, you are logged in under a limited account.

(Windows XP)
1. Turn OFF System Restore.

• On the Desktop, right-click My Computer.
• Click Properties.
• Click the System Restore tab.
• Check *Turn off System Restore*.
• Click Apply, and then click OK.

2. Reboot.

3. Turn ON System Restore.

• On the Desktop, right-click My Computer.
• Click Properties.
• Click the System Restore tab.
• UN-Check *Turn off System Restore*.
• Click Apply, and then click OK.

I recommend going to the following link and update as recommended by Microsoft. This adds more security and extra features including a pop-up blocker for Internet Explorer. Microsoft Update

MVPS Hosts file This replaces your current HOSTS file with one that will restrict known ad sites from serving you unsolicited advertisements. Basically, this prevents your computer from connecting to those sites by redirecting them to 127.0.0.1 which is the IP of your local computer.

SiteAdvisor download this plug-in for your browser and it will alert you of a known bad site for FREE.

Now that everything is fixed, I suggest that you consider getting these programmes to help keep the computer clean:

SPYWARE BLASTER - Blocks bad ActiveX items from installing on your computer.
WINDOWS DEFENDER - With daily updates and scans, this programme offers good security against malware.
AD-AWARE PERSONAL – A fine free malware detector and removal programme
SPYBOT S&D – Excellent free spyware detector and removal programme
GOOGLE TOOLBAR - Blocks many unwanted pop-ups in Internet Explorer.
FIREFOX - Safer alternative to the Internet Explorer web browser.
AVG ANTIVIRUS FREE EDITION - Free antivirus programme if you currently are not using one.
ZONEALARM - Free firewall programme if you currently are not using one (Windows XP has a built-in firewall).

Remember to update these frequently.

Please note that whilst there is nothing wrong in having more than one antispyware programme for “on demand” scanning, having two or more antivirus systems is not recommended as they may well cause conflicts and slowness.

You may also want to read "How did I get infected in the first place" to learn how to better secure your computer.

Be sure to keep your Windows, antispyware and antivirus updated.

It just remains for me to wish you happy safe surfing; I hope you found my advice helpful.
