I've been getting a lot of pop ups lately, and some programs are installing on my computer by itself. .. (ex: surf side kick, search assistant, etc). I think it might be spyware.

I ran adaware, spybot and norton antivirus and I also have an pop up blocker from google.

I've also done some online scans from housecall and panda active scan (log included below)

Can someone look at my logs? Thanks in advance

Download KillBox http://www.greyknigh...spy/KillBox.exe. Run KillBox and check the box that says 'End Explorer Shell While Killing File'. Next click on 'Delete on Reboot'. Copy the below files and go back to KillBox. Go to File->Paste from Clipboard and then hit the button with a red circle and white X. Confirm to delete and when asked if you want to reboot, say no:

C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM\sp32.xml
C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM\winupdt.008
C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM\stlb2.xml
C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM\Cache\mswinstall.exe
C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM\supdate.dll
C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM\redit.cpl
C:\WINDOWS\Application Data\Sskknwrd.dll
C:\WINDOWS\Helper101.dll
C:\WINDOWS\ru.exe
C:\Program Files\Windows Media Player\wmplayer.exe


Upload this file (C:\Program Files\Common Files\SYSTEM\Mapi\1033\95\MTE2NzY6ODoxNg_exe.vir) to http://virusscan.jotti.org and report back what it found.

Please download l2m9xfix at http://www.geekstogo...ds/l2m9xfix.exe

Save it to the desktop and run it. Extract the files. Then open the l2m9xfix folder you just created and run RunThis.bat.

A window will open, and your desktop will disappear, then reappear. Please be patient until the batch says it is completed.

Then restart your computer, and post a new HijackThis log as well as the log.txt file which should be in the same folder as RunThis.bat.

Also run a new Panda scan and post that log.

thanks for your help :tazz:
I don't get anymore pop ups + programs installing by itself, but I have a question.
In control panel>add remove programs, a program named "command" is there and I don't remember seeing it there previously.

When I tried removing it, a window popped up saying " can not find script file "c:\\windows\\VXNlcgAA\\KAfj8q.vbs "

Is this supposed to be there or is it one of the programs that installed by itself?

It's bad :tazz:

See if you can find and delete this folder:

c:\windows\VXNlcgAA\

Go into HijackThis->Config->Misc Tools->Open Uninstall Manager and look for that command entry. Click on it once and then click on the Delete button in HijackThis. That should get rid of it ;)

Any other problems/questions before I close this topic?
