I followed Metallicas instructions posted here:
http://www.geekstogo...exe-t23033.html

Now I have to problems:

1) my spyware problem is only partly solved (I do have the full range of desktop properties again - but this annoying red icon popping up once in a while to inform me that I do have spyware on my pc remains)

2)I can't open Outlook anymore because something was presumably damaged by the repair work I excecuted. I'm supposed to provide the proplus.msi file (which I found on the net). The problem is: I have no idea, where the original CD I used to initially install Outlook may be!

Update:
Ok, I solved the Outlook problem by installing a newer version of Outlook! Hooray! However I still do have this annoying littel spyware icon (which by the way looks exactly like the killbox icon) which keeps telling me that my "computer is infected!"
Any Ideas how to get rid of it?

I would be very grateful for any help!

Thx

hanes

Glad you got it worked out now.

Update Ad-aware and Spybot, and then run the scans for them. Remove what you find. Post a new HijackThis log here for review. I will take a look at it.

Adaware, antispy & antivir do not find any spyware. May be you find something suspicious.

There you go:

By the way: thanks you for your help!

[greyknight17]

Please print out or copy this page to Notepad. Make sure to work through the fixes in the exact order it is mentioned below. If there's anything that you don't understand, ask your question(s) before proceeding with the fixes. You should 'not' have any open browsers when you are following the procedures below.

The Temp folders should be cleaned out periodically as installation programs and hijack programs leave a lot of junk there. Download CleanUp! http://cleanup.stevengould.org/ (Alternate Link if main link don't work - http://www.greyknigh...spy/Cleanup.exe ) and install it. Run CleanUp! and click on CleanUp! button. When it asks you if you want to logoff, click on Yes.

Right click on this link -> http://www.bleepingc...g/smitfraud.reg and save that file. Double click on it and click on Yes when it asks you if you want to merge it into the registry. Once that's done, right click on your Desktop and go to Properties. Next go to Desktop tab->Customize Desktop button->Web tab. Uncheck everything listed there. Then delete all the entries listed except for 'My Current Home Page'. Click OK and OK.

Go to Start->-Control Panel->Add or Remove Programs and remove/uninstall the following programs, if found:

Security iGuard
Virtual Maid
Search Maid

Exit Add/Remove Programs.

Go to My Computer->Tools/View->Folder Options->View tab and make sure that 'Show hidden files and folders' (or 'Show all files') is enabled. Also make sure that 'Display the contents of system folders' is checked.

Download KillBox http://www.greyknigh...spy/KillBox.exe. Run KillBox and check the box that says 'End Explorer Shell While Killing File'. Next click on 'Delete on Reboot'. For each of the following files below, check the box that says 'Unregister .dll Before Deleting' if it's not grayed out. Copy the below files and go back to KillBox. Go to File->Paste from Clipboard and then hit the button with red circle with a white X. Confirm to delete and when asked if you want to reboot now, say no:

C:\wp.exe
C:\wp.bmp
C:\bsw.exe
C:\Windows\sites.ini
C:\Windows\popuper.exe
C:\Windows\system32\hhk.dll
C:\Windows\System32\wldr.dll
C:\Windows\System32\helper.exe
C:\Windows\System32\intmon.exe
C:\Windows\System32\shnlog.exe
C:\Windows\System32\intmonp.exe
C:\Windows\System32\msmsgs.exe
C:\Windows\system32\msole32.exe
C:\Windows\system32\ole32vbs.exe

Restart your computer and boot into Safe Mode by hitting the F8 key repeatedly until a menu shows up (and choose Safe Mode from the list). In some systems, this may be the F5 key, so try that if F8 doesn't work.

Delete these folders if they exist:

C:\Programme\Search Maid\
C:\Programme\Virtual Maid\
C:\Programme\dict.cc\
C:\Programme\quickbar\
C:\Windows\System32\Log Files\
C:\Programme\Security iGuard\

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):

Do you know what the following program(s) are for? If not, uninstall them and fix them in HijackThis:

O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [stnospy] C:\Programme\SinEspias\no-spy.exe /autorun
O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [Absolute_Delete] C:\Programme\Absolute_Delete\Absolute_Delete.exe StartUpMin

Close HijackThis.

Restart your computer.

1. Download Hoster http://www.greyknigh.../spy/Hoster.exe and run it. Choose the 'Restore Original Hosts' button and press OK. Close the program.

2. Right click on this link -> http://mvps.org/winh.../DelDomains.inf and select Save As to download WinHelp2002's DelDomains.inf. Save the file to the Desktop. To run the inf file, right click on it and select Install. Note: This will remove all entries in the 'Trusted Zone' and 'Ranges' also.

3. The Temp folders should be cleaned out periodically as installation programs and hijack programs leave a lot of junk there. Download CleanUp! http://cleanup.stevengould.org/ (Alternate Link if main link don't work - http://www.greyknigh...spy/Cleanup.exe ) and install it. Run CleanUp! and click on CleanUp! button. When it asks you if you want to logoff, click on Yes.

4. Run an online scan at http://www.pandasoft...com/activescan/ and save the results from the scan!

Restart and post a new HijackThis log along with the results from ActiveScan.

[hanes]

This seems to have helped. That dirty little bugger is gone!
However there are two things I found a bit strange:
1) I was not able to excecute HijackThis in safe mode (so I did it the repair work in normal mode)
2) I can't (though I have previously) use Activescan. Whenever I open it, it starts scanning, but finishes immeadiately, saying that there are no viruses found. So it would not have made a lot of sense to post a log of a three second scan I thought.

Anyways, here is my Hijackthis log:

Thanks again for your time and attention.

OK, do this:

If you have a fast internet connection (broadband), run an online virus scan at TrendMicro http://uk.trendmicro...call_launch.php. Just follow the instructions on the site to run the online scan. If any viruses/trojans are detected, try to delete or clean them in that site. You may use Panda ActiveScan also at http://www.pandasoft...ucts/activescan. Otherwise, make sure your antivirus program has the latest definitions and run a full system scan.

Your log is clean.

Turn off system restore by right clicking on My Computer and go to Properties->System Restore and check the box for Turn off System Restore. Click Apply and then OK. Restart your computer and uncheck the same box to enable System Restore.

Make sure to get the latest updates for Windows and Internet Explorer at http://v5.windowsupd...t.aspx?ln=en-us.

To help prevent future spyware installations/infections, please read the Anti-Spyware Tutorial and use the tools provided.

Are there any problems now? If not, you should be set to go.

Micro has identified winnook.exe in the system32 folder to be Troj_topantspy.c (I looked it up in their encyclopedia and the description "how you get infected" is exactly what I experienced)

The problem is that it can not repair that file (presumably there is a write protection). It says that I could simply delete it, if I was sure that it does not contain any important information - well, I'm not sure and I have no idea what else would prove to be a viable solution. So I would be very grateful, if you were able to give me hint on how to proceed here.
Thx

Hannes

Hi Hannes, you may delete that file. If it's giving you problems deleting it, boot into Safe Mode to delete it.

Any other problems before I close this topic?
