Every 7 minutes an ad window pops up (usually from hotoffers.info and antispy.globolook.com) even when I’m offline. If online, the window takes over any active window, which makes it difficult to even make this post (I have my timer set). :tazz:

There is also a white X in a red circle on my taskbar. If I click (right or left) on it, I get one of the pop-ups.

This warning pops up frequently (even offline):

Your Windows is corrupted with spyware virus.
You must patch your PC urgently to protect your system.
Private info is accessed by ports:

-8080
-3128

You can patch your PC for free now and delete all spyware viruses.

Click OK to choose and download free spyware removal using AntiSPY.

OK Cancel



In addition, the following pops up with the ad sometimes and will not allow either window to be closed (can only reboot to get rid of):

WARNING!

****YOUR PC WILL NOT BOOT NEXT TIME WITHOUT URGENT PATCHING****

Our analysis shows that your PC is infected with spy software.
You have been infected with 'winSterHJK v.2011.'
Your PC is now accessed through ports:

-3128
-8080

Your private information is in danger.
Patch your PC immediately for free.
No money, no credit card, all downnloads are CNET certificated.
We're the team of volunteers helping to fight with spyware.

Click OK to choose and download free spyware removal using AntiSPY.

OK



This has been going on for several days and I've tried so many different things to get rid of it without success. Below is my latest Ad-Aware Log. I'm not sure if I ran it with the criteria required. Please help if you can. Thank you in advance for any assistance you can give.

We need to see scanlog from "Full system scan", not "Custom mode".

I think this right, now. Sorry it took so long to get back. When I was removing cookies, I looked at my System32 folder and found several *.ico files that relate to this problem. I deleted one of them, but not sure I should have. Unfortunately, my knowledge of computers is limited. I'll let the experts take care of this problem for me. Thanks again for any help!

Hi Mannen and thanks for your offer to help. I'm having difficulty downloading the ActiveScan program so plan to reboot and will try again. If I have trouble getting back on (very slow), I will try again tomorrow evening. Thanks again for your help!

Thank you both...I will not be back online (on my home PC) until later this evening and I will try to get everything you requested. My system is extremely slow with this hijack problem. Hope you can bear with me during these trying times. Thanks again!

Good morning!


Download this tool called Killbox.
http://www.bleepingc...are/KillBox.zip

Unzip it where you can reach it easily. We will use it later

Now disconnect from the internet and close down ALL browser windows

Run Killbox

Select the Delete on Reboot option.
In the "Full Path of File to Delete" field copy/paste these files below. Copy one file at a time and click the red circle with the white X in it. When entering the .dll file into KillBox, check the box that says 'Unregister DLL before deleting'. First click yes, then when it asks you to reboot, click No. Then enter the other files and click yes to reboot when you are done with the last.

C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM32\param32.dll
C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM32\guninst.exe

Then run Adaware and delete everything found. Reboot and post a fresh Adaware log and tell us how things are

Cheers
Mannen

Thank you very much for your response, Mannen. I will be offline for a few days so will not be able to follow your instructions. However, I printed them out and will do this on Sunday evening. I hope you stick with me since I cannot take care of this right away. Will be back in touch later. Thanks again!

Ok...I'm finally back and things are better but not great. I ran Killbox and deleted the files you requested. I then ran Ad-Aware and deleted everything then rebooted and here is my log. My system is still running very slow. However, the red circle with the white X is now gone from my taskbar and finally the annoying pop-ups (every 7 minutes) are gone. When I went to look at the System32 folder the .ico files are still there. Anyway, here is the latest log...thanks!

Hi Rawe, and thank you. Completely forgot to check for updates first, but just ran the update and here is my most recent log. Again, thanks for all your help...don't know what I'd do without this forum...this has been an experience!
