I am working on a friend's computer - and as much as I want to reload the OS and start them from scratch, I need to clean it up & not destroy anything -- ARGH! Needless to say, I've cleaned off countless other spyware, adware, malware and now I'm stuck. I've run Spybot & Adaware continuously to get it as clean as it is now, but Spybot doesn't find the Winik.sys stuff and Adaware dies upon trying to remove it. The antivirus software is AVG (Free) - which sees the bad file and tries to heal or quarantine it, but then it just keeps coming back. Microsoft Updates have been applied. Any help you could offer would be greatly appreciated. I'll be hammering away at this all evening once I get out of work. Here's my most recent HijackThis log:

Hello lola 251 and welcome to G2G. A few nasties there, let's get started.

Please download the OTMoveIt by OldTimer.
  • Save it to your desktop.
  • Please double-click OTMoveIt.exe to run it.
  • Copy the file paths below to the clipboard by highlighting ALL of them and pressing CTRL + C (or, after highlighting, right-click and choose copy):

    C:\WINDOWS\System32\pkshdjvn.dll
    C:\WINDOWS\System32\vcbheybl.dll
    C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\RDSA\rdsa.dll
    C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\x1ff\x1ff.dll
    C:\WINDOWS\System32\richedtr.dll
    C:\WINDOWS\System32\pshwr.exe


  • Return to OTMoveIt, right click on the "Paste List of Files/Folders to be moved" window and choose Paste.
  • Click the red Moveit! button.
  • Copy everything on the Results window to the clipboard by highlighting ALL of them and pressing CTRL + C (or, after highlighting, right-click and choose copy), and paste it on your next reply.
  • Close OTMoveIt
*If a file or folder cannot be moved immediately, you may be asked to reboot the machine to finish the move process. If you are asked to reboot the machine, choose Yes.
**If a reboot was necessary or you needed to Exit before posting the log, you will find a copy of the log at the root of the drive where OTMoveIt is installed, usually at :
C:\_OTMoveIt\MovedFiles\********_******.log
(where "********_******" is the "date_time")


Click "Exit" to close OTMoveIt.

Please re-open HiJackThis and scan. Check the boxes next to all the entries listed below.

Now close all windows other than HiJackThis, then click Fix Checked. Close HiJackThis. Reboot

Now, to make sure there isn't anything else, let's run a couple of scanners to see what it comes up with.

SUPERAntiSpyware Home Edition (free version) - Download - Home Page

1. Install it and double-click the icon on your desktop to run it.
2. It will ask if you want to update the program definitions, click Yes.
3. Under Configuration and Preferences, click the Preferences button.
4. Click the Scanning Control tab.
5. Under Scanner Options make sure the following are checked:

1. Close browsers before scanning
2. Scan for tracking cookies
3. Terminate memory threats before quarantining.
4. Please leave the others unchecked.
5. Click the Close button to leave the control center screen.

6. On the main screen, under Scan for Harmful Software click Scan your computer.
7. On the left check C:\Fixed Drive.
8. On the right, under Complete Scan, choose Perform Complete Scan.
9. Click Next to start the scan. Please be patient while it scans your computer.
10. After the scan is complete a summary box will appear. Click OK.
11. Make sure everything in the white box has a check next to it, then click Next.
12. It will quarantine what it found and if it asks if you want to reboot, click Yes.
13. To retrieve the removal information for me please do the following:

1. After reboot, double-click the SUPERAntispyware icon on your desktop.
2. Click Preferences. Click the Statistics/Logs tab.
3. Under Scanner Logs, double-click SUPERAntiSpyware Scan Log.
4. It will open in your default text editor (such as Notepad/Wordpad).
5. Please highlight everything in the notepad, then right-click and choose copy.

14. Click close and close again to exit the program.
15. Save the log information. If needed (still infected) paste this info along with your HijackThis log.

Please go HERE to run Panda's ActiveScan
  • Once you are on the Panda site click the Scan your PC button
  • A new window will open...click the Check Now button
  • Enter your Country
  • Enter your State/Province
  • Enter your e-mail address and click send
  • Select either Home User or Company

  • If it wants to install an ActiveX component allow it
  • It will start downloading the files it requires for the scan (Note: It may take a couple of minutes)
  • When download is complete, click on My Computer to start the scan
  • When the scan completes, if anything malicious is detected, click the See Report button, then Save Report and save it to a convenient location. Post the contents of the ActiveScan report
