I recently discovered the Aurora malware virus on my computer and it has become a real pain in the @$$ for me. I am pretty computer savvy but cannot figure out how to get rid of Aurora. All I know is that I really wish it would leave me alone! If you can take me through the steps on disinfecting my computer I would be VERY VERY greatful! Thanks. Here is my HiJack This Log

Here is my Hijack Log. If you can please help me by telling me what I need to do to get rid of the pop ups it would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

Hi nvhsrunr21 and welcome to GeeksToGo! My name is Excal and I will be helping you.

Before you do anything else, please create a folder for HijackThis and put it in a permanent folder (like C:\HJT) instead of the Temp folder. This is required because HijackThis will create backups and we don't want them to be deleted


DOWNLOAD PROGRAMS


Please download ewido security suite it is a trial version of the program.
  • Install ewido security suite
  • When installing, under "Additional Options" uncheck "Install background guard" and "Install scan via context menu".
  • Launch ewido, there should be an icon on your desktop double-click it.
  • The program will now go to the main screen
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.
If you are having problems with the updater, you can use this link to manually update ewido.
ewido manual updates Do NOT run a scan yet. (if you already have, please just update)

Please download Nailfix from Here
please do NOT run it yet.

Download and install CleanUp! Here*NOTE* Cleanup deletes EVERYTHING out of temp/temporary folders and does not make backups.
We will use this program later.

1. Click this link to be sure you can view hidden files.

5. Now open and run Ewido:
  • Click on scanner
  • Click Complete System Scan and the scan will begin.
  • During the scan when it ask 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, look at the bottom of the screen and click the Save report button.
  • Save the report to your desktop
Close Ewido

6. Go to Start->Run and type in services.msc and hit OK. Then look for Windows 32-bit PnP Driver (winpnp32) and double click on it. Click on the Stop button and under Startup type, choose Disabled.

7. Close all browsers, windows and unneeded programs.

8. Open HiJack and do a scan.

9. Put a Check next to the following items:
