Please run a free online virus scan at one of these two sites:
HouseCall
Kaspersky



How do you know you have about infection? Does it come up in your antivirus? if so, what does it exactly say.

Thanks,

Hi KAOZ,

When you open IE, what exactly does the page look like? Does it say anything at all, or is the page totally blank?

If it is totally blank, you do not have an infection. Something is blocking the change of your home page. My guess would be Microsoft AntiSpyware. This has a anti-browser hijacking built in. So if microsoft antispyware sees your home page as about:blank, then it will keep it that way until you change in their program.

Please read this post completely, it may make it easier for you if you copy and paste this post to a new text document or print it for reference later.

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. Uncheck the Hide protected operating system files option.

1. Reboot into safe mode.

Restart your computer and as soon as it starts booting up again continuously tap F8. A menu should come up where you will be given the option to enter Safe Mode.

2. Close all browsers, windows and unneeded programs.

3. Open HiJack and do a scan.

4. Put a Check next to the following items:

O21 - SSODL: Mcafee SecurityCenter - {98BF672A-8B9D-5FE1-7720-B6FCDEB34AD1} - c:\progra~1\mcafee.com\shared\windavp32.dll

5. click the Fix Checked box

6. Please remove just the files from the following paths using Windows Explorer (if present):

c:\progra~1\mcafee.com\shared\windavp32.dll

Reboot into normal mode and please post a fresh hijackthis log.


Is this a legal version of McAfee?


Thanks,

:tazz:

The McaFee is legal because it came with Verizon when I ordered it.Thanks for your help Excal.The About:Blank was a blank page on the screen and now IE is back to normal.

Hi KAOZ,

Thats great to hear!!

Great job, it appears your computer is clean :tazz:

Ensure you rehide your “hidden files and folders” back to the way they were.

Now that your system is Malware Free, it is important to reset your system Restore. Click Here to learn how to.

Might I suggest the following Free Spyware programs for added security, you can download them at the following links. These programs work great for detection:

Ad-aware SE

Spybot S&D


If you are unhappy with your current antivirus and want to replace it or if you dont already have one, I suggest one of these free programs:
*Note - do not use more than one anti-virus program as it will more than likely cause conflict.

AVG
Avast


The following free programs are great for prevention:

SpywareBlaster 3.4

Spywareguard

IE/Spyad


A Firewall is a must! Here are 3 good free versions:

Sygate

Kerio

ZoneLabs

There are other options other than Internet Explorer for a browser, which some say have better security. Two of them are:

Firefox

Opera

This site is a great source for tightening up security on Internet Explorer settings.

Make sure that you keep your Operating System and IE updated with the latest Critical Security Updates from Microsoft...they usually come out once a month, on the 2nd Tuesday of each month.

Be sure and give the Temp folders a cleaning out now and then as well, Make sure after you clean your Temp files to empty out your Recycle bin as well.
For ease use the following program:

Cleanup
Run "Cleanup" and when it has finished, Reboot

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