I'm looking into the probs that a friend is having with their pc. Have removed 14 virii and over 300 spyware items but the pc is still prompting for a dial up connection repeatedly upon bootup.

I've got the pc at at my house at the mo so it's not got a net connection, but can download things on my pc and copy over on floppy/cd if needed.

I'm wondering if there's something lurking so have run Hijack This. Here's the log:

Hi Dubber Dan,

What a nice friend you are <_<. I know this looks like a lot, but just hang in there. For their PC, You may wish to print out a copy of these instructions to follow while you complete this procedure. Any files I tell you to download need to be saved to floppy, then put on your friend's pc.

First, Download Registrar Lite from here:
http://www.resplende...oad/reglite.exe

Put it in its own folder. You may want to keep this program. It is an excellent free, registry editor.

Copy and paste the follow text into the address bar, then hit 'Go':
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\URLSearchHooks

In the pane on the right are the values associated with that key.
We want to remove this one -> {9368D063-44BE-49B9-BD14-BB9663FD38FC}_
Notice the underscore at the end, all the others with that need to go as well.

Right click on it, and select delete.
If you get a confirmation question, respond OK then close out the program.

Then, reboot in safe mode (by tapping F8 at startup and select safe mode from the menu). Be sure you're able to view hidden files, and remove the following files in bold:

C:\Program Files\Freeserve\ <- Folder
C:\Freeserve\FreeserveConnectionKit\ <- Dialer Folder!
C:\Program Files\Common Files\Real\Update_OB\realsched.exe <- RealOne Player Spyware
c:\program files\RBEnhance\ <- RapidBlaster Folder (bad stuff!)
c:\program files\RapidBlaster\ <- Same as Above
c:\windows\system\netdllex.exe <- Trojan

Next, please go offline, close all browsers and any open Windows, making sure that only HijackThis is open. Scan and when it finishes, put an X in the boxes, only next to these following items, then click fix checked.

Fix the following you don't want, fixing them will free up RAM:
04 - HKLM\..\Run: [QuickTime Task] C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM\QTTASK.EXE Quicktime Tray Icon
O4 - HKCU\..\Run: [IntelProcNumUtility] "C:\Intel\Intel PSNCU\CpuNumber.exe" /nosplash <- More info on that here

Reboot your PC.

If you would please, rescan with HijackThis and post a fresh log, and let us know how your system's working. :D

Just a little housecleaning:

Please go offline, close all browsers and any open Windows, making sure that only HijackThis is open. Scan and when it finishes, put an X in the boxes, only next to these following items, then click fix checked.
R3 - Default URLSearchHook is missing

Congratulations! Your system is CLEAN <_<

How do you prevent spyware from being installed again? We strongly recommend installing SpywareBlaster (it's free for personal use).

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.
Consumes no system resources.

Download, run, check for updates, download updates, select all, protect against checked. All done. Check for updates every couple of weeks. If you have any errors running the program like a missing file see the link at the bottom of the javacool page.
Link to SpywareBlaster: http://www.geekstogo...tion=show&id=12

It's also very important to keep your system up to date to avoid unnecessary security risks. Click Here to make sure that you have the latest patches for Windows.

These next two steps are optional, but will provide the greatest protection.
1. Use ANY browser besides Internet Explorer, almost every exploit is crafted to take advantage of an IE weakness. We usually recommend Firefox.
2. Install Sun's Java. It's much more secure than Microsoft's Java Virtual Machine .

It's okay to delete the Hijack This folder if everything is working okay.

After doing all these, your system will be thoroughly protected from future threats. :D
