Hi, Bonfire,

Let's see if we can get things cleaned up for you.

Have you run Ad-aware and Spybot yet? If not, here are the instructions:

Ad-aware *
Download Ad-aware version SE Personal 1.06 from here:
Download from:
http://www.download....4-10045910.html
http://www.majorgeek...ownload506.html
Install by double-clicking on the downloaded file.
If you have a previous version of Ad-Aware installed, during the installation of the new version you will be prompted to uninstall or keep the older version - be sure to uninstall the previous version.After installing Ad-aware, you will be prompted to update the program and run a full scan. De-select all boxes so that it does not run. If you already have Ad-aware Second Edition skip to the next step.
Manually run "Ad-Aware SE Personal" and from the main screen Click on "Check for Updates Now".
Click the 'Connect'-button and, if there are new updates, click 'OK' and then 'Finish'.
Once the definitions have been updated:
Do NOT scan with the program yet.
Please reboot your computer in Safe Mode by immediately tapping the F8 key (or F5 on some computers)
Use the arrow keys to highlight Safe Mode and press the Enter key.
Once in Safe Mode, launch Ad-Aware, and press Start > Next to let it scan your drives...
It will find a number of "bad" files and registry keys. Press 'Next'
Right-click in that results pane and choose "select all"
Press "Next" again
It will ask you whether you'd like to remove all checked items. Click OK.
Finally, close Ad-Aware, and start your computer normally.

Spybot S&D*
Download Spybot S&D 1.4 here:
http://safer-network...2005-05-31.html
or
http://www.majorgeek...wnload2471.html

** If you have a previous version of Spybot installed:
** update to version 1.4.
Before installing Spybot S&D 1.4 remove 1.3 like this:
Open 1.3 . Go to Immunize. Click on UNDO at the top. At the bottom, take the checkmark OUT of "BrowserHelper> "Enable permanent blocking..."
This will disable all protection. Make sure ALL has been disabled.
If you are using Spybot's TeaTimer disable all protection there as well.
If Opera Browser is installed, de-select protection for Opera Immunity
Then go to Add/Remove programs via Start>Settings>Control Panel and REMOVE Spybot.
Reboot
Go to your Program Files and delete the old Spybot folder.
Delete the old desktop icon.
Then you are ready to install the new version.
Install by double-clicking on the downloaded file.
Run Spybot S&D from desktop icon or Start menu.
Press "Search for updates" button to get list of updates available.
Press "Download updates" button.
Close all IE windows and close & restart Spybot S&D.
Press "Check for problems" button.
Have SpyBot remove all it marks in RED by pressing "Fix selected problems".
Close Spybot S&D, reboot your system.


We cannot do anything using HijackThis until you move it to a permanent folder of its own. Currently, it is opening in a temp folder.
To create a folder:
Click My Computer, then C:\
In the menu bar, File->New->Folder.
That will create a folder named "New Folder", which you can rename to "HJT" or "HijackThis".
Now you have C:\HJT\ folder.
Browse to where you now have HJT and click on it once to select it. Do Edit>Cut. Browse to your new HJT folder, click on that and do Edit>Paste to paste HJT in that new folder.

Please scan again with HJT and post a fresh log. After that we will be able to do some more cleaning. Thanks.

Hi BUgbatter,

I have Adware and Spywareblaster, but do I have to download Spybot? When I downloaded that once before it nearly wiped out my computer, I had to take it in and have things re-installed, so I am a little leary of that program!

[Bugbatter]

In that case we won't risk using Spybot. Just run Ad-aware (which updated yesterday, by the way) and post a new log. Don't forget to move HJT.

[Bonfire]

Thanks! I am trying to move HJT but not exactly sure what the heck I am doing and am having a problem figuring it out! Help! Went to My computer, C:\, File, new, folder, then I browsed for the application, edit-cut, edit-paste. But when I clicked on it and it came up to run a new log it's still saying it's in a temp. folder!!!

[Bonfire]

Okay, not sure, but think I did it. Does it look right now?

[Bonfire]

Okay need more coffee! Forgot to paste it!!! Here it is...

Sorry, had to go run an errand. Okay, before I do this I was looking at what you have down. I use Iwon.com for my homepage and use this site everyday, do you still want me to click that one?

[Bugbatter]

It is your computer so the decision is ultimately yours. Are you getting pop-up ads? I guess you could leave iwon and see if you still have problems.
Here is some info:

Geez, sorry, I keep getting interupted today! Okay, all done, hope I didn't screw it up, how's it look now?

[Bugbatter]

I guess you decided to leave iwon?
You also did not fix this one:
O16 - DPF: {56336BCB-3D8A-11D6-A00B-0050DA18DE71} (RdxIE Class) - http://software-dl.r...ip/RdxIE601.cab

Those 016 entries are active-x items that allow external code to be run on your machine. If you fix that now, you will be asked to install it again the next time you visit the website. You also have a backups folder with your HJT so if you change your mind, you can always restore the backup(s).

If you want to fix that entry, launch HJT and tick that one. Close all windows and click "Fix Checked." Reboot.

Then you should be good to go.

Here is my standard list of simple steps that you can take to reduce the chance of infection in the future. You may have already taken some of these steps:
1. Visit Windows Update:
Make sure that you have all the Critical Updates recommended for your operating system and IE. The first defense against infection is a properly patched OS.
Windows Update: http://v4.windowsupd.../en/default.asp

2. Adjust your security settings for ActiveX:
Go to Internet Options/Security/Internet, press 'default level', then OK.
Now press "Custom Level."
In the ActiveX section, set the first two options ("Download signed and unsigned ActiveX controls) to 'prompt', and 'Initialize and Script ActiveX controls not marked as safe" to 'disable'.

3. Download and install the following free programs:
a. SpywareBlaster: http://www.javacools...areblaster.html
b. SpywareGuard: http://www.javacools...ywareguard.html
Periodically check for updates.

4. Keep your antivirus software and firewall software up to date.
Note: Zone Alarm Firewall (Zone Labs) http://www.zonelabs....ontent/home.jsp is free.
Also Sygate has an optional free version: http://smb.sygate.com/download_buy.htm

5. You might consider installing Mozilla / Firefox.
http://www.mozilla.org/

6. Check for updates in Ad-aware frequently.
I scan with Ad-aware at least weekly.

7. Before using or purchasing any Spyware/Malware protection/removal program, always check the Rogue/Suspect Spyware List. It will save you a lot of grief, as well as money if you are thinking of purchasing. Here is the link: http://www.spywarewa...nti-spyware.htm
If you want to know just how effective your anti-spyware program is, or how well any of the "rogue" programs listed at the above link work, check this for an independent comparison of several anti-spyware programs: http://www.spywarewa...-test-guide.htm

8. I also suggest that you delete any files from "temp", "tmp" folders. In Internet Explorer, click on "Tools" => "Internet Options" => "Delete Files" and select the box that says "Delete All Offline Content" and click on "OK" twice. Also, empty the recycle bin by right clicking on it and selecting "Empty Recycle Bin". These steps should be done on a regular basis.

9. . You might want to take a look at this article, too.
http://computercops....tlite7736-.html

Happy and Safe Surfing!

[Bonfire]

Guess I missed that one! I fixed it and here's the new log. I will follow your instuctions on the other things. My question is should I run a log periodically and check for these things you said to fix and get rid of them on a regular basis?

To be honest with you I don't have a Firewall, not even sure what it is for or how to use it. I tried downloading Zone Alarm once before but didn't understand how to set it up and use it so I un-installed it.

Sure do appreciate all the help you've given me, thanks so much!

My question is should I run a log periodically and check for these things you said to fix and get rid of them on a regular basis?

You did a fine job. Yes, it would be good to run a scan with HJT every so often so you can have someone check to be sure something undesirable is not running around in there.
If you intend to keep iwon, it would be helpful for you to make your helper aware of that when you post the log.

I will send you a PM with some additional information regarding firewall protection for your operating system.
