I've got the DrWatson Postmortem Debugger problem that so many others do as well. Can't open anything associated with Windows Explorer including My Documents, Control Panel, etc.

I've done all the downloads and scans as instructed: AdAware, CWShredder, Spybot S&D, Trend Housecall, TDS-3. Although I found and deleted lots of stuff the problem persists.

Any ideas? Appreciate all the help I can get!!!

Here's my HJT log:

Please run my previous instructions again. Nothing was deleted.

When you reboot into safe mode make sure all files are showing. There's a tutorial in the instructions. :tazz:

I followed the tutorial and looked for the files and they weren't there. I'll try it all again and re-post.

What a bummer!

You have a nasty About:Blank infection. This fix requires several tools that need to be downloaded. Please download these now, we will run them later.

1) About:Buster - Download it and extract it to C:/aboutbuster.
2) CleanUp! - Download it and install it.
3) CWShredder 2.11 - Download it and save it to your desktop.
4) Ad-Aware - Download, install, and update.

Enable hidden files and folders: http://www.bleepingc...torial=62#winme

During the fix do NOT connect to the internet. Unless you can memorize these instructions, it would be a good idea to print them out.

Boot into safe mode:
Restart your computer and as soon as it starts booting up again continuously tap F8. A menu should come up where you will be given the option to enter Safe Mode.

Run AboutBuster
-Click Start to begin the process
-Click OK on the Buster Report dialogue box to start the scan
AboutBuster scans the computer for malicious files and deletes them.
Save the report (copy and paste into Notepad and save as a .txt file) to post a copy for review.

Run CWShredder
-Next, click on the: ‘Fix’ button
-Follow the prompts, and press OK

Run CleanUp
-Make sure it is on Standard Mode
-Click the "CleanUp!" button

Run Ad-Aware
-Configure Ad-Aware for a full system scan
-Run it

Clean Up the left overs

Run HJT, close any open windows, and fix the following items (if they are still there):

R1 - HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main,Search Page = res://C:\WINDOWS\spbcm.dll/sp.html#22776
R1 - HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main,Default_Search_URL = res://C:\WINDOWS\spbcm.dll/sp.html#22776

R0 - HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main,Start Page =
R0 - HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Search,SearchAssistant = res://C:\WINDOWS\spbcm.dll/sp.html#22776

R3 - Default URLSearchHook is missing

O2 - BHO: (no name) - {CE8AC142-6FBE-5F35-22E2-B0910048C1FF} - C:\WINDOWS\apimb.dll

O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [msnappau] "C:\Program Files\MSN Apps\Updater\01.02.3000.1001\en-us\msnappau.exe"
O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [atlru.exe] C:\WINDOWS\system32\atlru.exe
O4 - HKLM\..\RunOnce: [netqk32.exe] C:\WINDOWS\netqk32.exe
O4 - Global Startup: Microsoft Office.lnk = C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office\Office10\OSA.EXE<<resource hog

O6 - HKCU\Software\Policies\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Restrictions present
O6 - HKCU\Software\Policies\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Control Panel present



The following are not necessarily spyware/malware, but we suggest you place a check mark next to the following entries, as these programs may be taking up system resources.

O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [CARPService] carpserv.exe
(Description: Not necessary. Carpserv info)

O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [TkBellExe] C:\Program Files\Common Files\Real\Update_OB\realsched.exe -osboot
(Description: RealPlayer scheduler. Completely unnecessary. Removing this entry will free up a small amount of system resources.)

O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [HPHUPD04] \"C:\Program Files\HP Photosmart 11\hphinstall\UniPatch\hphupd04.exe\"
(Description: HP software update checker and wizard launcher.)

O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [WinampAgent] \"C:\Program Files\Winamp3\winampa.exe\"
(Description: The WinAmp Agent. This puts a WinAmp icon is your system tray. It is completely unnecessary, and some viruses may hide in this file. Removing this entry will free up a small amount of system resources.)

Then delete the following files (if they exist):

C:\WINDOWS\apimb.dll
C:\WINDOWS\system32\atlru.exe
C:\WINDOWS\netqk32.exe


Reboot into normal mode (simply restart your computer as you normally would), and run the following free, online virus scans:

http://housecall.tre.../start_corp.asp
http://www.pandasoft...n_principal.htm
http://housecall.tre.../start_corp.asp

Then restart your computer one more time and post a new HJT log as well as the About:Buster log I asked you to save earlier.

I hope we're getting closer to a fix. This is killing me!!

Here are my HJT and About logs. I also added my ActiveScan log as it found stuff that it said it couldn't delete. That's helpful... :tazz:

Things seem OK. Haven't noticed any fake security pop ups and my windows explorer works. Now I can get to MyComputer without being in safe mode and can access control panel, my pictures, etc.

Thanks for all the help, you definitely should get a raise!

Congratulations! Your system is CLEAN :tazz:

How do you prevent spyware from being installed again? We strongly recommend installing SpywareBlaster (it's free for personal use) Click Here.

Prevent the installation of ActiveX-based spyware, adware, browser hijackers, dialers, and other potentially unwanted pests.
Block spyware/tracking cookies in Internet Explorer and Mozilla/Firefox.
Restrict the actions of potentially dangerous sites in Internet Explorer.
Consumes no system resources.

Download, run, check for updates, download updates, select all, protect against checked. All done. Check for updates every couple of weeks. If you have any errors running the program like a missing file see the link at the bottom of the javacool page.

It's also very important to keep your system up to date to avoid unnecessary security risks. Click Here to make sure that you have the latest patches for Windows.

These next two steps are optional, but will provide the greatest protection.
1. Use ANY browser besides Internet Explorer, almost every exploit is crafted to take advantage of an IE weakness. We usually recommend FireFox Posted Image.
2. Install Sun's Java. It's much more secure than Microsoft's Java Virtual Machine .

It's okay to delete the Hijack This folder if everything is working okay.

After doing all these, your system will be thoroughly protected from future threats. ;)
