Hello all!

I have a Dell laptop with that darn registry key: HLM\Software\ShudderLTD\PSGuard that won't go away.

I have read the "Getting Started" post on this thread.

Installed and run Ad-Aware 1.06r1 -> Finds nothing

Installed and run Ewido -> Finds nothing

Installed and run SpyBot 1.4 -> Found the key HLM\Software\ShudderLTD\PSGuard but couldn't remove it.

Installed and run AVG 7.0 Anti-Virus-> Finds nothing

I re-booted my computer and ran Hijack and include its log below.

Thanks in advance for any help you can give!!!

Hello Buckeye Sam,

Thanks for getting back with me.

Since I last wrote I downloaded the lastest upgrade for SpyBot and 'fixed' the problems. Ran it again, and it says there are no problems. I also re-ran Ad-Aware and Ewido both of which found some problems and fixed them. However... Even though these tools all now say I'm clean the nasty little key is still in the registry, and you can't delete it. Is this not a concern or is it important to see the key gone to be completely ridded of this disease?

HK_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\ShudderLTD\PSGuard\PSGuard\Liscense

I'll post a new HiJack log.

Thank you!!

Smitfraud is still with you I'm afraid.


First we need to download and prepare some tools that we will need to fix your problem.
  • Please download SmitRem.zip
    • Save the file to your desktop.
    • Right click on the file and extract it to it's own folder on the desktop.
  • Please download Ewido Security Suite
    • Install ewido security suite
    • When installing, under "Additional Options" uncheck..
      • Install background guard
      • Install scan via context menu
    • Launch ewido, there should be an icon on your desktop, double-click it.
    • You will need to update ewido to the latest definition files.
      • On the left hand side of the main screen click update.
      • Then click on Start Update.
    • The update will start and a progress bar will show the updates being installed.
      (the status bar at the bottom will display "Update successful")
    • Exit ewido. DO NOT scan yet.
    If you are having problems with the updater, you can use this link to manually update ewido.
    Ewido Manual Updates

  • Please download Adaware SE 1.06
    Install Adaware and check for updates, but don't run it yet.

  • Place a shortcut to Panda ActiveScan on your desktop.

=============


Now that you have the right tools we can start fixing your problem.
Please print out these instructions as the rest of this fix must be done in Safe mode and you won't be able to access the Internet.

Please reboot your computer in SafeMode by doing the following:
  • Restart your computer
  • After hearing your computer beep once during startup, but before the Windows icon appears, press F8.
  • Instead of Windows loading as normal, a menu should appear
  • Select the first option, to run Windows in Safe Mode.
* if you have trouble getting into Safe mode go here for more info.


=============


Once in Safe mode, follow these steps:
  • Open the smitRem folder, then double click the RunThis.bat file to start the tool.
    • Follow the prompts on screen.
    • Wait for the tool to complete and disk cleanup to finish.
    • The tool will create a log named smitfiles.txt in the root of your drive, eg; Local Disk C: or partition where your operating system is installed. Please post that log along with all others requested in your next reply.
  • Open Ad-aware and do a full scan. Remove everything that it finds.

  • Run Ewido:
    • Click on scanner
    • Click Complete System Scan and the scan will begin.
    • During the scan it will prompt you to clean files, click OK
    • When it asks if you want to clean the first file, put a check in the lower left corner of the box that says "Perform action on all infections" then choose clean and click OK.
    • When the scan is finished, click the Save report button at the bottom of the screen.
    • Save the report to your desktop.
    • Close Ewido.
  • Next go to Control Panel click Display > Desktop > Customize Desktop > Website > Uncheck "Security Info" if present.

  • Reboot back into normal mode and click the Panda ActiveScan shortcut, then do a full system scan. Make sure the autoclean box is checked!

  • Save the Panda scan log and post it along with a new HijackThis Log, the contents of the smitfiles.txt log and the Ewido Log by using Add Reply.
Let me know if any problems persist.

Many Thanks Buckeye Sam!

Things seem much cleaned out although there are still many registry keys that reference C:\PSGuard\ such as:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Classes\CLSID\{FFE54F5B-2EE3-4F84-82F7-690EE6BE4392}\InprocServer32

with a value: C:\Program Files\PSGuard\Core.dll

Obviously I have uninstalled PSGuard so the reference above goes nowhere but I'd say there are at least 25 keys like this. Should I just leave them be - harmless?

Below are the logs you requested:

PandaScan log follows.

You're looking pretty good! :tazz:

Just a little more cleaning up to do.

Run Hijackthis again, click scan, and Put a checkmark next to each of these. Then close all other windows--you should only see HijackThis on your Desktop--and click the Fix Checked button.

Please download WebRoot SpySweeper from HERE (It's a 2 week trial):
  • Click the Free Trial link on the right - next to "SpySweeper for Home Computers" to download the program.
  • Install it.
  • Once the program is installed, it will open.
  • It will prompt you to update to the latest definitions, click Yes.
  • Once the definitions are installed, click Sweep Now on the left side.
  • Click the Start button.
  • When it's done scanning, click the Next button.
  • Make sure everything has a check next to it, then click the Next button.
  • It will remove all of the items found.
  • Click Session Log in the upper right corner, copy everything in that window.
  • Click the Summary tab and click Finish.
  • Paste the contents of the session log you copied into your next reply.

Spysweeper should clean up any of those registry entries from PSGuard that it finds harmful.


How are things running on your end now? Any more problems?
