Please go here: Jotti Virus Scan

Click the "browse" button and locate this file:

C:\WINDOWS\System32\wininet.dll

Click "Open", then click the "Submit" button. Copy the results and paste them here.

***

Copy everything in the code box below and paste it into notepad. Go up to "File > Save As..." and click the drop-down box to change the "Save As Type" to "All Files". Save it as wininet.bat on your desktop.

dir %Systemdrive%\wininet.dll /a h /s > files.txt
start notepad files.txt

Double click wininet.bat and when it is ready it will open files.txt
Copy the content of files.txt and paste it here.

I couldn't figure any way to launch IE directly on the infected machine - when I double clicked on the app in program files it said the file could not be found. So, I copied the wininet.dll file to the C:\ root dir temporarily and then I could upload it via another computer on our LAN. Hope that wasn't a bad idea.

Here is the jotti results:

Please make absolutly sure that wininet.dll doesn't get to the other computers.

It's important all steps be done exactly otherwise you may lose Internet access. Please copy the instructions below and paste them into notepad or print them out!

If you do not understand something, please let me know before continuing!

Next, please reboot your computer in Safe Mode by doing the following:
1) Restart your computer
2) After hearing your computer beep once during startup, but before the Windows icon appears, press F8.
3) Instead of Windows loading as normal, a menu should appear
4) Select the first option, to run Windows in Safe Mode.

For additional help in booting into Safe Mode, see the following site:
http://www.pchell.co.../safemode.shtml

***

Go to your C:\Windows\system32-folder and rename the bad wininet.dll to wininet.old
Then on top in the menu, choose tab 'view' > 'refresh'
Look if there is a new wininet.dll created in your system32-folder.

If not...

Go to your C:\Program Files\Common Files\Adaptec Shared\System\-folder and rightclick on that wininet.dll and choose copy.
Go back to your C:\Windows\system32-folder, rightclick anywhere in that folder and choose paste.

REBOOT

That must solve the problem. Because your explorer wont load, you'll need to perform everything via taskmanager (ctrl-alt-del) > applications > new task > browse'.

[glennc007]

OK. completed that. no change to desktop.

??????

[glennc007]

Was I supposed to delete wininet.old?

[g2i2r4]

You're fast

After reboot.. delete the C:\Windows\System32\wininet.old.
Also delete C:\Windows\System32\oleadm.dll

[glennc007]

OK. Deleted wininet.old. Still no change in desktop after another reboot. Aargh.....

Note: olead.dll was not found.

[glennc007]

I mean oleadm.dll was not found,

[g2i2r4]

We'll need to transport some files from the computer you are now using, to your infected computer.

Download smitRem.zip and save the file to your desktop.
The tool has been updated, see if that helps
Right click on the file and extract it to it's own folder on the desktop.
So you'll get a new folder called smitrem on your desktop.
I want you to put that folder on cd, floppy or usb-stick.

On your infected computer, boot again in safe mode and open your task manager again.
Now insert the cd, floppy or usb-stick where you saved the smitrem folder in your infected computer.

In your Task Manager, click 'applications' (first tab).
Click the New Task button.
Cick browse.

Now browse to the drive where your floppy, usb-stick or cd is present (could be A or D or E or F.. you'll see..)
Search for that smitrem folder.
Right click on the smitrem folder and choose: Copy

Now browse again via Task Manager to My Documents or Program Files.
Right click somewhere in there, right click and choose: Paste
Now open the smitrem folder you just copied and pasted and click the file: RunThis.bat
Then click open.
In the window where it says 'Create new task', click OK.

Normally, you'll have to drag the different windows you'll see to left or to right, because normally they will open on top of each other and you wont see the command window the tool starts that is under it.
You'll see a blue window now.
Follow the prompts on screen.
Wait for the tool to complete.

When done, in Task Manager, click 'shut down' from the menu on top and click restart. Your computer will reboot now.
Reboot to normal mode and post a hijackthis log in your next reply

This log means it rebooted ok?
(checking the log now)

[g2i2r4]

There's nothing in the log. Can you have the replaces wininet.dll checked at jotti's?

* Save it to the desktop.
* Run Silent Runner's by doubleclicking the "Silent Runners" icon on your desktop.
* You will see a text file appear on the desktop - it's not done yet, just let it run (it won't appear to be doing anything!)
* Once you receive the prompt "All Done!", double-click on the new text file on the desktop and copy that entire log and paste it here.

*NOTE* If you receive any warning message about scripts, please choose to allow the script to run.
For some time it will look like nothing is happening. Just keep waiting.
