one problem i think i'm having is that for whatever reason, i can't get into an menu/option ANYWHERE so that i can restart or go into safe mode--even F4 and F8 at startup doesn't work...

ANY help on this would be great... as a MozillaFirefox user for quite awhile, popups are even more annoying now!

[Advertisements]

Let's try fixing the Aurora problem first and see if you can get into Safe Mode (after I say that you are clean).

Download Ewido Security Suite at http://www.ewido.net/en/download/

Update its database at http://www.ewido.net...wnload/updates/

Run a scan and let it clean the computer.

**Note** DO NOT REBOOT the computer during the removal process. If you do the filenames will change. If you can't leave the computer on now, I suggest not running the logs below yet. Wait until you can leave it on.

Download FindIt's.zip to your desktop: http://forums.net-in...=post&id=142443

1. Unzip/extract the files inside to a folder on your desktop.
2. Open the folder. Double click on FindIt's.bat and wait for Notepad to open a text file. It will take a while so please be patient ...
3. Then post the results here along with the new HijackThis log.

I'll leave the ewido suite dialog box open w/out rebooting until you get back to me... btw, it never did finish scanning completely before giving me the reboot request...

[superfluous]

I also had tried running trend micro's housecall free scan which found a few trojans that i cleared out--previous to posting my log... it's quite obvious these are linked to the aurora popups??

[greyknight17]

You may restart or shutdown after doing any of the scans and fixes. Just DON'T restart or shutdown once you did the fixes and POSTED the two logs here. The main thing is that you should keep it on once you post the logs, otherwise a restart/shutdown will change the filenames.

Download KillBox http://www.atribune....ads/KillBox.exe
Download and install CleanUp http://cleanup.stevengould.org/

Go to My Computer->Tools->Folder Options->View tab and make sure that Show hidden files and folders is enabled. Also make sure that the System Files and Folders are showing/visible also. Please make sure system restore is enabled by right clicking on My Computer and go to Properties->System Restore and make sure that System Restore is enabled (box should be unchecked). Once you're clean we will turn this off and then create a new restore point.

Close out all open windows and disconnect the computer from any internet access.

1. SKIP

2. Go to Start->Run and type in services.msc and hit OK. Then look for 'System Startup Service (SvcProc)' and double click on it. Click on the Stop button and under Startup type, choose Disabled.

3. Run the CleanUp program you just installed and when prompted to reboot/logoff select NO.

4. Run KillBox. Go to Tools > Delete Temp Files > Click *OK* Paste the following locations into KillBox one at a time. Checkmark the box that says "Delete on Reboot" and checkmark the box "Unregister DLL" (If available) Click the red circle with the white X and it will ask you to confirm the file for deletion, say YES and when the next box opens prompting you to reboot now...click NO...and proceed with the next file. Once you get to the last one click NO when it asks you to reboot.

**Note** Don't let KillBox reboot the computer...Do it manually after the fixes to the hijackthis log.

5. Go to Start->Run and type in cmd and hit OK. Then type in each of the following (hit Enter key after each line):

cd windows
nail.exe /FullRemove
exit

6. Run a scan in HijackThis. Check each of the following and hit 'Fix checked' (after checking them) if they still exist (make sure not to miss any):

O2 - BHO: DNS Resolve Support Dll - {4920E150-5D27-4B95-B60B-D68B78928441} - C:\WINDOWS\system32\dnscore.dll

7. Reboot the computer now. Reconnect your internet access and post another FindIt’s log and HijackThis log.
