Hi caseykid, Welcome to the Geeks to Go Forums

My name is Trevuren and I will be helping you with your log. It appears that you have a couple of things going on here so we will tackle them one at a time.

Please print out or copy this page to Notepad. Make sure to work through the fixes in the exact order in which they are mentioned below. If there's anything that you don't understand, ask your question(s) before proceeding with the fixes.

1. Download CW-Shredder at the link below: (don't run it yet)
http://cwshredder.ne.../CWShredder.exe

2. Download 'SpSeHjfix'. >>> http://www.derbilk.de/SpSeHjfix112.zip

3. Clean out temporary and TIF files. Go to Start > Run and type in the box: cleanmgr. Let it scan your system for files to remove. Make sure these 3 are checked and then press *ok* to remove:

Temporary Files
Temporary Internet Files
Recycle Bin


4. Reboot into safe mode.

How to use the F8 method to Start Your Computer in Safe Mode

*Restart the computer.
*as soon as BIOS is loaded begin tapping the F8 key until the Advanced Options menu appears.
*Use the arrow keys to select the Safe mode menu item
*press Enter.

5. Disconnect from the net and Close ALL OPEN PROGRAMS.

6. Run 'SpSeHjfix'. and click on "Start Disinfection".
When it's finished it will reboot your machine to finish the cleaning process.
The tool creates a log of the fix which will appear in the folder.

7. Now run the Shredder - Hit The FIX button!

8. Reboot and repeat the process above.

9. Reboot and post a fresh HJT log and the log that was created by 'SpSeHjfix'.

Regards,

Trevuren

Please print out or copy this page to Notepad. Make sure to work through the fixes in the exact order in which they are mentioned below. If there's anything that you don't understand, ask your question(s) before proceeding with the fixes.

Now let's do some work on your log:

First we need to make all files and folders VISIBLE:

Go to start>control panel>folder options>view (tab)
*choose to "show hidden files and folders,"
*uncheck the "hide protected operating system files" and the "hide extensions for know file types" boxes.
*Close the window with ok
*All hidden files will now be visible

Close all browser windows and RUN HijackThis.
. Click the SCAN button to produce a log.

Place a check mark beside each one of the following items:

O2 - BHO: (no name) - {D435A8F0-7A98-47A1-88D0-D90D9EEFCFD9} - C:\WINDOWS\System32\hiej.dll (file missing)
O9 - Extra button: Related - {c95fe080-8f5d-11d2-a20b-00aa003c157a} - C:\WINDOWS\web\related.htm
O9 - Extra 'Tools' menuitem: Show &Related Links - {c95fe080-8f5d-11d2-a20b-00aa003c157a} - C:\WINDOWS\web\related.htm


Now with all the items selected, delete them by clicking the FIX checked button. Close the HijackThis window and Reboot Your System in Safe Mode

How to use the F8 method to Start Your Computer in Safe Mode

*Restart the computer.
*as soon as BIOS is loaded begin tapping the F8 key until the Advanced Options menu appears.
*Use the arrow keys to select the Safe mode menu item
*press Enter.


Using Windows Explorer, locate the following files/folders, and DELETE them (if they are present):

FILES

C:\WINDOWS\System32\hiej.dll

FOLDERS (with all their content)

C:\WINDOWS\web

Exit Explorer, and REBOOT BACK INTO NORMAL MODE

Finally, RUN Hijackthis again and produce a new HJT log. Post it in the forum so we can check how everytjhing looks now.

Regards,

Trevuren

Trevuren, You're probably going to strangle me but between instructions I downloaded and install Microsoft SP2. I did follow your instructions but only line 02 in the hijackthis log was still identical, which I checkmarked and fixed. In safe mode I did a search and did not fine the file c:\windows\system32\hiej.dll but did find c:\windows\web and deleted it. Here is the latest hijackthis log-Logfile of HijackThis v1.99.1

You are right, I am going to starngle you. One should never perform upgrades yntil their system is clean. Hey, what is done, is done. We will work it out.

You posted your log in doublespace format. We need to change that.

To remove the double spacing in your log, please do the following:

.Please go to Start - Run... and type notepad.exe
.Hit OK.
.Now go to Format and uncheck WordWrap.
.Close Notepad.

Please provide a fresh HJT log.

Thanks,

Trevuren

Please print out or copy this page to Notepad. Make sure to work through the fixes in the exact order in which they are mentioned below. If there's anything that you don't understand, ask your question(s) before proceeding with the fixes.

Now let's do some work on your log:

First we need to make all files and folders VISIBLE:

Go to start>control panel>folder options>view (tab)
*choose to "show hidden files and folders,"
*uncheck the "hide protected operating system files" and the "hide extensions for know file types" boxes.
*Close the window with ok
*All hidden files will now be visible

Close all browser windows and RUN HijackThis.
. Click the SCAN button to produce a log.

Place a check mark beside each one of the following items:

O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [WinLoad] C:\WINDOWS\system32\Winload.exe
O9 - Extra button: Microsoft AntiSpyware helper - {82F10403-0210-4442-B2A0-C174353B932A} - (no file) (HKCU)
O9 - Extra 'Tools' menuitem: Microsoft AntiSpyware helper - {82F10403-0210-4442-B2A0-C174353B932A} - (no file) (HKCU)


Now with all the items selected, delete them by clicking the FIX checked button. Close the HijackThis window and Reboot Your System in Safe Mode

How to use the F8 method to Start Your Computer in Safe Mode

*Restart the computer.
*as soon as BIOS is loaded begin tapping the F8 key until the Advanced Options menu appears.
*Use the arrow keys to select the Safe mode menu item
*press Enter.


Using Windows Explorer, locate the following file, and DELETEit(if it is still present):

C:\WINDOWS\system32\Winload.exe

Exit Explorer, and REBOOT BACK INTO NORMAL MODE

Finally, RUN Hijackthis again and produce a new HJT log. Post it in the forum so we can check how everytjhing looks now.

Regards,

Trevuren

Trevuren,

I've done a search in C:\..... (My only harddrive) for winload.exe and load.exe in all files and folders, including hidden files. I also manually looked for it and it doesn't appear to be on the drive.

Thanks,

Hi casey kid,

Try out your system for a day and please det back to me with a fresh HJT log.

We'll see if any of these rear the ugly little heads before finishing the cleanup.

DO NOT USE SYSTEM RESTORE for fear of reinfection.
