I am trying to help my friend who said his browser is slowed down a lot. He used the norton antivirus and detected four different files affected by the adware.
The files are comanti.dll, olesvr.dll, req.dat, and cabms.dll.
The first thing I tried is using the ad-aware. It successfully removed the first two (comanti.dll and olesvr.dll) plus some more adware (not detected by Norton).
However, it does not detect req.dll and cabms.dll
Then, I tried the Spybot Search & Destroy. It find one more adware (CDilla) and then it returns an error - Xuron 55 (Datei C:\windows\win.ini ... The process cannot access the file because it is being used by another process). I was still puzzled with it.
Afterwards, I used killbox. It can successfully removed the req.dll and req.dat (with the option - delete file after reboot). When I used it against cabms.dll, it returns an error saying PendingFileRenameOperations Data has been removed by External Process.
Then, I click ok and do a system "reboot" by using the windows reboot.
However, the cabms.dll is still around after reboot (I tried the safe mode also).
Did I do something wrong??
I haved tried to remove the registry entry referencing the cabms.dll but it reappears after I run the regedit again. Then, I used the Sysinternals Process Explorer to see which process holding the dll. It is the explorer.exe and the winlogon.exe. Now, I am stuck because I cannot end the winlogon process (it causes reboot).
Thanks in advance.
