[viv1811]

I have a blank screen on my desktop and I keep getting security warnings all the time. I have run adaware, spybot which removed a lot of spyware, each time I run it. I have the ewido scanner and keep running it every other day. I have downloaded the panda activescan, and it keeps giving me a message that some virus Agent.E is trying to get into the computer..
somebody please help me with this..
Following is my hijack logfile..

1. Download CWShredder

If you are using anything other than Windows xp you may need a zip program.
Please download the evaluation version of Winzip.


2. Download SpSeHjfix.zip to the desktop.

• Then right click on the desktop and select new >folder, name it spfix
• Unzip SpSeHjfix.zip into the new folder.

3. Disconnect from the net and Close ALL OPEN PROGRAMS.

• Run 'SpSeHjfix'. and click on "Start Disinfection".
• When it's finished it will reboot your machine to finish the cleaning process.
• The tool creates a log of the fix which will appear in the folder.

If it doesn't find any of the SE files or any hidden reinstallers it will say system clean and not go on to next stage.

4. Once it is finished, run CWShredder - Hit The FIX button!

5. Reboot and post a new HJT log and the log that was created by 'SpSeHjfix'.

Warning Note: On a few occasions it has been reported that after using the SPSEHjfix you cannot open Internet Explorer. To fix this, go into Control Panel >Internet Options >Programs & press reset web settings, then you can set your home page to what you want on the general tab.

Regards,

Hi Trevuren,

Thanks for the detailed instructions...I did per your instructions. I did not find the objects that you have mentioned in the hijackthis log, also, could not find those dll files in the windows explorer..
I did run ad-aware and it found about 24 infected files that were removed.

This is the latest hijack log...

Now that we got rid of that bad one, we can rerun the first fix and, hopefully, obtain better results.

Your system has an About:Blank infection as well as other less serious infections.

1. Download the stand alone version of CWShredder

• Save the program to your Desktop
• Click on the CWShredder icon, then on the RUN button
• Click on "Check for Updates"
• Once the program is updated, close it until needed. DO NOT USE IT NOW

2. If you do not have a zip program please download and install the evaluation version of Winzip.

3. Download SpSeHjfix.zip to the desktop.

• Then right click on the desktop and select new >folder, name it spfix.
  
• Unzip SpSeHjfix.zip into the new folder.

4. Disconnect from the net and Close ALL OPEN PROGRAMS.

5. Run 'SpSeHjfix'. and click on "Start Disinfection".

When it's finished it will reboot your machine to finish the cleaning process.
The tool creates a log of the fix which will appear in the folder.

If it doesn't find any of the SE files or any hidden reinstallers it will say system clean and not go on to next stage

6. Once it is finished run CWShredder - Hit The FIX button!

7. Reboot and post a new HJT log and the log that was created by 'SpSeHjfix'.

Warning Note: On a few occasions it has been reported that after using the SPSEHjfix you cannot open Internet Explorer. To fix this, go into Control Panel >Internet Options >Programs & press reset web settings, then you can set your home page to what you want on the general tab.

Regards,

Trevuren

Hi Trevuren,

Thanks for the reply.I got rid of the about:blank infection. Can you help me on a couple other issues:

1. I still have a desktop screen that is plain white and does not change. I was showing some warning before, which is gone, but the palin white screen doesnot go. When I right click on desktop, it does not allow me a lot of options that it should. Pleae guide me on that..

2. I have read that one should not download windows Sp2 unless the system is completely free of malware. so I had not done it yet. Please advise if I should download it now..

3. When I boot my system, it starts a lot of processes that are not useful and that slows down the system. I have to go to task manager and delete the processes, so that computer starts working at normal speed.what can I do about that?

Thanks...

This is the latest hijack log....

Hi,

I just did some change of settings and managed to get my desktop screen back. So I no longer have the plain white background. So please disregard my first question in the previous mail.

Thanks

[Trevuren]

1. You can update to SP2 as soon as you are finished the required cleanup on this page.

2. Go to Start>>Run and type msconfig into the type box. Click on the SETUP tab and remove the checkmark beside the items that you don't want to have run at boot up.

Congratulations, your log shows that your SYSTEM IS CLEAN

There are a few things you must do once you are completely clean:

1. Re-hide your System Files and Folders to prevent any future accidents.

2. Cleanup the leftovers. Download CleanUP! - Cleans temporary files from IE and Windows, empties the recycle bin and more. Great tool to help speed up your computer and knock out those nasties that like to reside in the temp folders.

3. Reset and Re-enable your System Restore to remove bad files from the backup that Windows makes as no program is able to clean those files:

TO DISABLE SYSTEM RESTORE

• Right-click "My Computer", and then left click "Properties".
• Left click on "System Restore Tab"
• Check box beside "Turn Off System Restore"
• Left click on "Apply"

TO ENABLE SYSTEM RESTORE

• Remove check mark from "Turn Off System Restore"
• Click on "Apply"

Here are some tips to reduce the potential for spyware infection in the future:

Make sure you keep your Windows OS current by visiting Windows update
regularly to download and install any critical updates and service packs. With out these you are leaving the backdoor open.

I strongly recommend installing the following applications:

• Spywareblaster <= SpywareBlaster will prevent spyware from being installed.
• Spywareguard <= SpywareGuard offers realtime protection from spyware installation attempts.
• How to use Ad-Aware to remove Spyware <= If you suspect that you have spyware installed on your computer, here are instructions on how to download, install and then use Ad-Aware.
• How to use Spybot to remove Spyware <= If you suspect that you have spyware installed on your computer, here are instructions on how to download, install and then use Spybot. Similar to Ad-Aware, I strongly recommend both to catch most spyware.

To protect yourself further:

• Spyad <= IE/Spyad places over 4000 websites and domains in the IE Restricted list which will severely impair attempts to infect your system. It basically prevents any downloads (Cookies etc) from the sites listed, although you will still be able to connect to the sites.
• MVPS Hosts file <= The MVPS Hosts file replaces your current HOSTS file with one containing well know ad sites etc. Basically, this prevents your coputer from connecting to those sites by redirecting them to 127.0.0.1 which is your local computer
• Google Toolbar <= Get the free google toolbar to help stop pop up windows.

And also see TonyKlein's good advice
So how did I get infected in the first place? (My Favorite)

Regards,

Trevuren
