The problem is there are items in the registry that need to be deleted.
Because of the way they are coded.
We will need to manually remove them.

Backing Up Your Registry
  • Go Here and download ERUNT
    (ERUNT (Emergency Recovery Utility NT) is a free program that allows you to keep a complete backup of your registry and restore it when needed.)
  • Install ERUNT by following the prompts
    (use the default install settings but say no to the portion that asks you to add ERUNT to the start-up folder, if you like you can enable this option later)
  • Start ERUNT
    (either by double clicking on the desktop icon or choosing to start the program at the end of the setup)
  • Choose a location for the backup
    (the default location is C:\WINDOWS\ERDNT which is acceptable).
  • Make sure that at least the first two check boxes are ticked
  • Press OK
  • Press YES to create the folder.
================================
Then go to Start> Run type in REgedit then hit ok.
This will open the egistry editor.

You will see a list of items on the left that have plus signs next to them.
To get to the location in the registry do the following:
GO to this area HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE click on the plus sign to reveal a set of subkeys then navigate to this one software then continue clicking the plus signs until you get to this location microsoft\shared tools\msconfig\startupreg so the entire location will look like this > HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\software\microsoft\shared tools\msconfig\startupreg < under this key you will see this > Á³# L"h'þ9Óœð3rÅWC:
Right click on that folder with this name on it Á³# L"h'þ9Óœð3rÅWC: and choose delete.
There will be 3 other entries that look similar to that one they are (see below)

Á³# L"h'þ9Óœð3rÅWC:\Program Files
Á³# L"h'þ9Óœð3rÅWC:\Program Files\ISTsvc
Á³# L"h'þ9Óœð3rÅWC:\Program Files\ISTsvc\istsvc.exe

Delete those as well then please reboot and post a new dss log and then let me know if everything is back to normal.

Hers the DSS results, my wife in the background here keeps asking me to tell you that we recieved two modems from sympatico and she thinks this has us running both. Could that be involved? The computor is running better than ever now and the nasty blonde from pipeline graphics is gone.
Thanks again.

Very good :)

we recieved two modems from sympatico

This would not be a malware issue.
But I see no other issues.
==========================================
Cleanup::
  • Make sure you have an Internet Connection.
  • Double-click OTMoveIt2.exe to run it. (Vista users, please right click on OTMoveit2.exe and select "Run as an Administrator")
  • Click on the CleanUp! button
  • A list of tool components used in the Cleanup of malware will be downloaded.
  • If your Firewall or Real Time protection attempts to block OtMoveit2 to reach the Internet, please allow the application to do so.
  • Click Yes to begin the Cleanup process and remove these components, including this application.
  • You will be asked to reboot the machine to finish the Cleanup process. If you are asked to reboot the machine choose Yes.
===============
Upgrading Java:
  • Download the latest version of Java Runtime Environment (JRE) 6 Update 7.
  • Scroll down to where it says "The J2SE Runtime Environment (JRE) allows end-users to run Java applications".
  • Click the "Download" button to the right.
  • Select your Platform and check the box that says: "I agree to the Java SE Runtime Environment 7 License Agreement.".
  • Click on Continue.
  • Click on the link to download Windows Offline Installation (jre-6u6-windows-i586-p.exe) and save it to your desktop. Do NOT use the Sun Download Manager..
  • Close any programs you may have running - especially your web browser.
  • Go to Start > Control Panel, double-click on Add/Remove programs and remove all older versions of Java.
  • Check any item with Java Runtime Environment (JRE or J2SE) in the name.
  • Click the Remove or Change/Remove button.
  • Repeat as many times as necessary to remove each Java version.
  • Reboot your computer once all Java components are removed.
  • Then from your desktop double-click on the download to install the newest version.

=============================
Delete\uninstall anything else that we have used.

System Restore
Then I will need you to reset your System Restore points.
The link below shows how to create a clean restore point.
How to Turn On and Turn Off System Restore in Windows XP
http://support.micro...kb/310405/en-us
=====================================
After that your log is clean. :)

The following is a list of tools and utilities that I like to suggest to people.
You do not have to have all or any of them they are only suggestions.
This list is full of great tools and utilities to help you understand how you got infected and how to keep from getting infected again.

Spybot Search & Destroy-Uber powerful tool which can search and annhilate nasties that make it onto your system. Now with an Immunize section that will help prevent future infections.

Spyware Blaster - Great prevention tool to keep nasties from installing on your system.

Spywareguard-Works as a Spyware "Shield" to protect your computer from getting malware in the first place.

IE-SPYAD- puts over 5000 sites in your restricted zone so you'll be protected when you visit innocent-looking sites that aren't actually innocent at all.

Windows Updates - It is very important to make sure that both Internet Explorer and Windows are kept current with the latest critical security patches from Microsoft. To do this just start Internet Explorer and select Tools > Windows Update, and follow the online instructions from there.

Tony Klein article To find out more information about how you got infected in the first place and some great guidelines to follow to prevent future infections you can read this article by Tony Klein.

Thanks for all your help, I have got the system restore ON now, is that were it should always be? I have down loaded the spybot and the spyware blaster. The one topic heading said delete /uninstall anything that we used does this include the DSS and malewarebytes programs that are on my desk top?

I will need you to turn it off then back on again.
After that leave it on.

Yes that means everything.
You can uninstall Malwarebytes.
After you do the Cleanup option within OT MOve it it will get rid of the tools except for Malwarebytes.
