I see that combofix did pick up one file, although everything else looks clean. Problem still there?

I see that combofix did pick up one file, although everything else looks clean. Problem still there?

[JustPrime]

yes still here... any more suggestings...

[Stamper19]

Lets do one more scan to rule out active malware. Then we will consider other possibilities.

Click here to download AVG Anti Rootkit and save it to your desktop.

• Double-click on the AVG_AntiRootkit_1.0.0.13.exe file to run it.
• Click "I Agree" to agree to the EULA.
• By default it will install to "G:\Program Files\GRISOFT\AVG Anti-Rootkit Beta".
• Click "Next" to begin the installation then click "Install".
• It will then ask you to reboot now to finish the installation.
• Click "Finish" and your computer will reboot.
• After it reboots, double-click on the AVG Anti-Rootkit Beta shortcut that is now on your desktop.
• Click on the "Perform in-depth search" button to begin the scan.
• The scan will take a while so be patient and let it complete.
• When the scan is finished, click the "Save result to file" button.
• Save the scan results to your desktop then come back here to copy and paste the results in your next reply to this thread.

[JustPrime]

the scan came up empty... nothign found and nothign to put in a report. It did nto give me an option to save a report either.

[JustPrime]

I installed Firefox to see if that would have the same trouble... if it had been fine I would have just dropped IE but firefox has the same trouble.

[JustPrime]

Well, I figured it out. It turnes out the Rogers (MY ISP) is redirecting traffic from urls that are not registered. I asked them about this from day one and they denied it. After going through all of this the past few days I decided to hook a computer up to a different ISP and it worked with no problmes. Went back to rogers and the problem started. I called rogers and they still insist that they are not redirecting anything. SO, I decided to run a third test. Whille still connected to the rogers system I changed my DNS to a third part DNS server and boom problem solved. So there you have it. Shady work on the part of ROGERS who after being caught red handed still tells me that I don't know what I am talking about and that they are not redirecting any mistyped domains or ungegistered domain traffic.

Thanks for your help, sorry to have bothered you. Hopefully thin information saves someone else lots of trouble.

[Stamper19]

Happy that you got it figured out. I was about to start looking for non-malware related issues, as the machine is clearly clean.

[JustPrime]

I have another question for you about the hijack this log... Can I delete things that I nolonger use?? For example, all those keys from worldwinner.com I do not use world winner anymore....

[Stamper19]

Can I delete things that I nolonger use?? For example, all those keys from worldwinner.com I do not use world winner anymore....

Yes, absolutely. All those 016 worldwinner entries can go.

Congrats - your logs are all clean

There are still a couple of things you should do for the sake of cleaning up.

---------------------------------------------------------------

Time for some housekeeping

• Click START then RUN
• Now type Combofix /u in the runbox and click OK
  
  
  
  • 
  
  
• When shown the disclaimer, Select "2"

The above procedure will:

• Delete the following:
  • ComboFix and its associated files and folders.
  • VundoFix backups, if present
  • The C:\Deckard folder, if present
  • The C:_OtMoveIt folder, if present
• Reset the clock settings.
• Hide file extensions, if required.
• Hide System/Hidden files, if required.
• Reset System Restore.

----------------------------------------------------------------

Otherwise, unless you have any questions, you are all set. Included below are some tips for keeping your computer malware free in the future.

Cheers,
Stamper

----------------------------------------------------------------

Now that you are clean, please follow these simple steps in order to keep your computer clean and secure:

• Make your Internet Explorer more secure - This can be done by following these simple instructions:
  • From within Internet Explorer click on the Tools menu and then click on Options.
  • Click once on the Security tab
  • Click once on the Internet icon so it becomes highlighted.
  • Click once on the Custom Level button.
    
    • Change the Download signed ActiveX controls to Prompt
    • Change the Download unsigned ActiveX controls to Disable
    • Change the Initialize and script ActiveX controls not marked as safe to Disable
    • Change the Installation of desktop items to Prompt
    • Change the Launching programs and files in an IFRAME to Prompt
    • Change the Navigate sub-frames across different domains to Prompt
    • When all these settings have been made, click on the OK button.
    • If it prompts you as to whether or not you want to save the settings, press the Yes button.
  • Next press the Apply button and then the OK to exit the Internet Properties page.
• Use an AntiVirus Software - It is very important that your computer has an anti-virus software running on your machine. This alone can save you a lot of trouble with malware in the future.
  
  See this link for a listing of some online & their stand-alone antivirus programs:
  
  Virus, Spyware, and Malware Protection and Removal Resources
  
  
• Update your AntiVirus Software - It is imperitive that you update your Antivirus software at least once a week (Even more if you wish). If you do not update your antivirus software then it will not be able to catch any of the new variants that may come out.
  
  
• Use a Firewall - I can not stress how important it is that you use a Firewall on your computer. Without a firewall your computer is succeptible to being hacked and taken over. I am very serious about this and see it happen almost every day with my clients. Simply using a Firewall in its default configuration can lower your risk greatly.
  
  For a tutorial on Firewalls and a listing of some available ones see the link below:
  
  Understanding and Using Firewalls
  
  
• Visit Microsoft's Windows Update Site Frequently - It is important that you visit http://www.windowsupdate.com regularly. This will ensure your computer has always the latest security updates available installed on your computer. If there are new updates to install, install them immediately, reboot your computer, and revisit the site until there are no more critical updates.
  
  
• Install Spybot - Search and Destroy - Install and download Spybot - Search and Destroy with its TeaTimer option. This will provide realtime spyware & hijacker protection on your computer alongside your virus protection. You should also scan your computer with program on a regular basis just as you would an antivirus software.
  
  A tutorial on installing & using this product can be found here:
  
  Using Spybot - Search & Destroy to remove Spyware , Malware, and Hijackers
  
  
• Install Ad-Aware - Install and download Ad-Aware. ou should also scan your computer with program on a regular basis just as you would an antivirus software in conjunction with Spybot.
  
  A tutorial on installing & using this product can be found here:
  
  Using Ad-aware to remove Spyware, Malware, & Hijackers from Your Computer
  
  
• Install SpywareBlaster - SpywareBlaster will added a large list of programs and sites into your Internet Explorer settings that will protect you from running and downloading known malicious programs.
  
  A tutorial on installing & using this product can be found here:
  
  Using SpywareBlaster to protect your computer from Spyware and Malware
  
  
• Update all these programs regularly - Make sure you update all the programs I have listed regularly. Without regular updates you WILL NOT be protected when new malicious programs are released.

Follow this list and your potential for being infected again will reduce dramatically.

here are some additional utilities that will enhance your safety

• IE/Spyad <= IE/Spyad places over 4000 websites and domains in the IE Restricted list which will severely impair attempts to infect your system. It basically prevents any downloads (Cookies etc) from the sites listed, although you will still be able to connect to the sites.
• MVPS Hosts file <= The MVPS Hosts file replaces your current HOSTS file with one containing well know ad sites etc. Basically, this prevents your coputer from connecting to those sites by redirecting them to 127.0.0.1 which is your local computer
• Google Toolbar <= Get the free google toolbar to help stop pop up windows.
• Winpatrol <= Download and install the free version of Winpatrol. a tutorial for this product is located here:
  Using Winpatrol to protect your computer from malicious software
