Hi, I have used your help before and have appreciated it a lot! I might have a problem with my firewall because although the computer says it is on, it does not respond when I click on it in the security center. Also I have adware that I am trying to get rid of....Need2find, exactsearch,p2pnetworking, altnet. Norton is picking up "SummaryInformation" and "d0998.msi." I am not new to the removal process but I am having trouble getting rid of this stuff. Also have startnow.

Hi bgdkmetzger2003 and Welcome to Geekstogo!

Please go HERE (Microsoft website) using Internet Explorer (not Firefox or any other browser as they won't work)

• Click on Windows Validation Assistant
• Click on the Validate Now button.
• Be patient while the ActiveX loads, do not click on any links.
• Read the instructions on this page while it's loading. You will be prompted to install - click YES.
• Enter your product key then click continue
• When it says "Validation Complete" please click Continue to return to your previous activity
• Copy what it says and paste it here.

Thanks,



Excal

[bgdkmetzger2003]

Thank you for running the Windows Validation Assistant. It appears that your Windows Product Key is valid.

This is a strong indicator that your operating system is genuine, however the Windows Validation Assistant cannot make a final determination.


To verify that you received a genuine Certificate of Authenticity and software CD, compare your anti-piracy features in the next section.


N o offense but i told you guys that i was not running any illegal software!!

[Excal]

Hi bgdkmetzger2003,

thanks for your patience.

Right click on the Microsoft/Giant AntiSpyware icon (looks like a target) and click on Security Agents Status (Enabled) and click on Disable Real-time Protection. To re enable it after the fix, you follow the same steps but click on Enable Real-time Protection.

Everything looks pretty good, what kind of problems are you having?

open Hijackthis and do a scan. Please check off the following items:

R0 - HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main,Local Page = C:\WINDOWS\about.htm
R0 - HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main,Local Page = C:\WINDOWS\about.htm

click FIX CHECKED then close Hijackthis

reboot

Reboot into normal mode and please run this online virus scan: ActiveScan - Save the results from the scan!

Please post the Active scan log and a fresh HiJackThis log. Let me know how your computer is running.

Thanks,



Excal

[bgdkmetzger2003]

Thanks for the help

I might have a problem with my firewall because although the computer says it is on, it does not respond when I click on it in the security center. "windows firewall cannot be displayed because the associated service is not running...."

Also I have adware that I am trying to get rid of....Need2find, exactsearch,p2pnetworking, altnet.

Norton is picking up "SummaryInformation" and "d0998.msi."

Also have startnow navigation helper in my software files.

I am not new to the removal process so if you could just let me know what to do id be grateful.


Incident Status Location

Adware:adware/need2find No disinfected Windows Registry

I think it would serve you well to clean your registry!

• Please dowload: RegSeeker.
• Click on "Clean The Registry" in the left panel.
• Check all boxes (make sure the backup box in the lower left corner is selected!).
• After it runs, click "Select All" on the bottom, then right-click on any selected item in the window and select "Delete Selected Items".
• Click "Quit RegSeeker".

Now, open any of your installed programs, and make sure that everything opens ok. If so, reboot, then go back and run the RegSeeker again, do the same thing again if anything is found. When RegSeeker finds nothing else, then it's clean!


Go to http://www.billsway.com/vbspage/
Scroll down to

Registry Search Tool
Search the Windows Registry for input string and display results (easier than repeatedly hitting the F3 key in RegEdit).

Script revised 13 Dec 2001 to work with Windows XP and Windows 2000.

And download this script




Open the RegSearch folder and double click RegSearch.vbs. Allow it to run.
Note: if your Antivirus or another program prompts about running a script file, allow the script to run.

copy and paste this in: need2find then hit "ok"

RegSearch will "disappear" but it is actually searching the registry for that entry.

Copy and paste what it finds into a Notepad file.

thanks so much for the help. the regseeker found about 1500 things that either were not there or were active X things. im interested to know why i had so much and how the registry gets so filled up. and what benefits i have from cleaning it?

the billsway.com page would not open when i click on the link so i cannot complete that last step.

im still worried about the firewall thing. when i right click in the tray and try to change my firewall settings it says it cannot find the associated service??

im going to run norton tonight to see if it still picks up the "SummaryInformation" and "d0998.msi."

other than that things are running well.

The leftovers from uninstalling programs is the biggest culprit. and alot of them come from the malware that was on your computer.

Lets finish cleaning you up, then we will take care of the firewall problems...

I uploaded the regsearch to this post, just unzip it to your desktop and follow the previous instructions for it


thanks,



Excal

[bgdkmetzger2003]

thank you for the help. im really interested in how you know how to do all of this stuff. ive been following the geekstogo directions for a while and maybe eventually i might be able to help someone else.

heres the stuff you wanted me to paste:

REGEDIT4
; RegSrch.vbs © Bill James

; Registry search results for string "need2find" 8/19/2005 1:06:50 AM

; NOTE: This file will be deleted when you close WordPad.
; You must manually save this file to a new location if you want to refer to it again later.
; (If you save the file with a .reg extension, you can use it to restore any Registry changes you make to these values.)


[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Need2Find]

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Need2Find\bar]

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Need2Find\bar\Partner]




ps im going to run some anti virus stuff but i think the computer is doin well.

[Excal]

Launch Notepad, and copy/paste the box below into a new text file. Save it as fixme.reg (make sure that Save as Type is set at "All Files") on your Desktop. Ensure there is no space at above REGEDIT 4.

REGEDIT4

[-HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Need2Find]

Locate fixme.reg on your Desktop and double-click on it. You will receive a prompt similar to: "Do you wish to merge the information into the registry?". Answer "Yes" and wait for a message to appear similar to "Merged Successfully".

reboot

and that should do it, let me know
