[Henying]

Hey there,

I came across your website today when I googled "Trojan-Spy.HTML.Smitfraud.c" after I got a blue screen telling me my system was experiencing problems with it. Some other people (including a certain Homerjay, check http://www.geekstogo...ic=16897&st=15) seem to have had the same problem.

Before I found your website, unfortunately I panicked a bit and deleted some files manually, for example the wp.exe and the links which the nasty added to my Internet Explorer. I also reset the start page, which had been changed. Oh yeah, both of that is very strange since I don't ever use IE except for Windows updates.

Anyways, once I found your homepage, I followed the instructions on the beginner's page, used Adaware, Spybot and CWShredder in the indicated ways and got the newest Windows Updates. I am also using a free but usually very reliable Antivirus which I update frequently. I will start one of the web-based antivirus right now, as I'm going to bed. I should be able to tell you tomorrow what the results of that were.

To get to the point, the only 2 problems left now (as far as I can tell) are frequent Internet Explorer popups (advertising spyware remover and casino stuff) which happen after a blinking warning sign shows in the task bar, and the lack of some of the tabs (only two remain) to configure the screen (now black) when I right-click on the desktop.

I have run Hijack This and StartupList, the logs for both are below.

Well, I really hope you can help me with this, I much appreciate every kind of insight you have to offer, especially because I am quite an amateur myself.

Thanks a million,
Henrik

Hey Don77,

thank you for your help. Since the popups etc. were really bugging me, I found a site on the web that had a do-it-your-self thing on Smitfraud, and I did everything they told me to do there. The steps were pretty similar to what you wrote and there was also something to fix the registry afterwards.
The computer doesn't seem to have any problems now, and Ad-Aware found only one tracking cookie which I deleted while my Antivirus found nothing at all. Just in case I forgot something, I post a new HijackThis Log. It would great if you could just look over that one.

Thank you very much for your help,
Henrik

Nice job your log is clean !
How is it running ?
Please use the following suggestion to help prevent reinfection

Download the following program, For keeping crap off your system to begin with
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.
Download Spyware Blaster

Keep Ad-aware and Spybot handy, Check them for updates prior to running and run them weekly
Same with your Anti Virus,

For an added check run an online virus scan, you can use one of the 2 below,
TrendMicro's HouseCall
ActiveScan

Be sure and give the Temp folders a cleaning out now and then as well, Make sure after you clean your Temp files to empty out your Recycle bin as well.
For ease use the following program
Download and install Cleanup
Run "Cleanup" and when it has finished, Reboot

Remeber to Check Windows for updates

Probably a good time to create a new restore point See Here Name it clean or something like that,

Thank you for your help and the tips, Don, I installed the programs you suggested and hope I won't have to bother you for a while now.

Take it easy and keep up the good work,
Henrik
