Alright, at least the log file didn't look quite as bad this time. SOME progress was made. Now, some of these instructions will look eerily similar, but I have a sneaking suspicion that an error in my instructions may be the reason that those 2 files are still there.

IN SAFE MODE

Open Hijackthis and check the following entries:

R3 - Default URLSearchHook is missing
O2 - BHO: XMLDP Class - {60371670-81B9-4d06-9C42-4DEC1AABE62B} - C:\WINDOWS\xmllib.dll

O4 - HKCU\..\Run: [Tmntsrv32] C:\WINDOWS\System32\Tmntsrv32.EXE
O4 - Global Startup: dakt.exe

Click on Fix Checked and exit HijackThis.

Using Windows Explorer, locate the following files and delete them:

C:\WINDOWS\xmllib.dll
C:\WINDOWS\System32\wintask.exe
C:\Program Files\Media Access\ (<~~ entire folder)
C:\WINDOWS\System32\medgs1.exe
C:\WINDOWS\System32\kpgdgx.exe
C:\WINDOWS\etb\pokapoka63.exe
C:\WINDOWS\System32\inetppui.exe
C:\Program Files\Common Files\Windows\mc-110-12-0000079.exe
C:\WINDOWS\System32\dcodw4.exe

Now, you'll have to perform a search for the next file. When you find it, delete it:

dakt.exe

If it won't let you delete the file, write down the path and respond with it in your next post. Regardless, continue on with the instructions

Please run Killbox.

Select "Delete on Reboot".

Open the text file with these instructions in it, and copy the file names below to the clipboard by highlighting them and pressing Control-C:

C:\WINDOWS\System32\Tmntsrv32.EXE
C:\WINDOWS\System32\SMSSU.EXE

Return to Killbox, go to the File menu, and choose "Paste from Clipboard".

Click the red-and-white "Delete File" button. Click "Yes" at the Delete on Reboot prompt. Click "No" at the Pending Operations prompt.

If you receive a message such as: "Component 'MsComCtl.ocx' or one of its dependencies not correctly registered: a file is missing or invalid." when trying to run TheKillbox, click here to download and run missingfilesetup.exe. Then try TheKillbox again..

Let the system reboot normally.

Again, check to see if internet connectivity is back up, or at the very least if you can get to a useable desktop.

Give me an idea of how this all went and another HijacKThis log in your next post.

Well, getting closer...

I deleted MOST of the files/folders/etc you identified...Couldn't locate them all, including nakt.exe.

Did everything and rebooted and it looked great, until IE came up (on its own) and began looking for msn.com which I had as the home page...After a few minutes I got this:

res://xmllib.dll/HTTP_Blocked.htm

Also saw a reference to webcruiser...

I did not run Hijack yet...too disappointed to...

If you can get normal mode up at all, that's a major step.

Run me the HijackThis log from NORMAL mode, if you can.

We've made SOOO much progress.

Alright... your major issue here is STILL Trojan.Startpage.O. Luckily, miekiemoes here at G2G has a fix for it. Let's try that.

First download FixO by Miekiemoes. Save it to your computer and run it. It should create a directory. Remember where that goes, but don't do anything else yet.

Run HijackThis and check the following entries:

R0 - HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main,Start Page = http://default.home
R0 - HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main,Start Page = http://default.home
R3 - URLSearchHook: (no name) - {02EE5B04-F144-47BB-83FB-A60BD91B74A9} - C:\Program Files\SurfSideKick 3\SskBho.dll
O2 - BHO: CControl Object - {3643ABC2-21BF-46B9-B230-F247DB0C6FD6} - C:\Program Files\E2G\IeBHOs.dll
O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [C:\WINDOWS\VCMnet11.exe] C:\WINDOWS\VCMnet11.exe
O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [winsync] C:\WINDOWS\System32\kpgdgx.exe reg_run
O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [SurfSideKick 3] C:\Program Files\SurfSideKick 3\Ssk.exe

REBOOT INTO SAFE MODE

Then, again go to Add or Remove programs and remove

Surf Sidekick 3

Also, again use your Windows explorer and delete the following files and folders:

C:\Program Files\SurfSideKick 3\ <~~folder
C:\WINDOWS\System32\kpgdgx.exe
C:\WINDOWS\VCMnet11.exe
C:\Program Files\E2G\ <~~folder

Then, navigate to the FixO folder and run FixO.bat by Miekiemoes and save the log off somewhere you can remember.

REBOOT INTO NORMAL MODE

Please do an online scan with Kaspersky WebScanner

Click on Kaspersky Online Scanner

You will be promted to install an ActiveX component from Kaspersky, Click Yes.

• The program will launch and then begin downloading the latest definition files:
• Once the files have been downloaded click on NEXT
  
• Now click on Scan Settings
• In the scan settings make that the following are selected:
  • Scan using the following Anti-Virus database:
  Extended (if available otherwise Standard)
  
  • Scan Options:
  Scan Archives
  Scan Mail Bases
• Click OK
• Now under select a target to scan:Select My Computer
• This will program will start and scan your system.
• The scan will take a while so be patient and let it run.
• Once the scan is complete it will display if your system has been infected.
  • Now click on the Save as Text button:
• Save the file to your desktop.
• Copy and paste that information in your next post.

So, hopefully in your next post I'll get a HijackThis log, FixO's log and a Kaspersky log.

Good luck.

OK...

The good news is I now can access the internet...

The bad news is that about 10 minutes after a reboot I get inundated with popups..."Goodwebsites," "Winfixer," "about blank," and "Venus 123." Also, godd old SurfSideKick...

Seems like I remove these files/procedures and they still come back...

Here's the latest log:

[Guse]

So, you've got the internet now, eh?

Let's get started with the big dogs.

First, download and install CleanUp!. Don't run the program just yet.

Now, run HijackThis (I know this seems like deja vu) and check the following entries:

R3 - Default URLSearchHook is missing
O2 - BHO: CControl Object - {3643ABC2-21BF-46B9-B230-F247DB0C6FD6} - C:\Program Files\E2G\IeBHOs.dll

O4 - HKCU\..\RunOnce: [wpdcwm] C:\WINDOWS\System32\wpdcwm.exe
O20 - Winlogon Notify: Detect - C:\WINDOWS\system32\sxrstr.dll

Close all other windows and click Check Fixed

Please download ewido security suite it is a free version of the program.

• 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.
• The program will now open to the main screen.
• When you run ewido for the first time, you may get a warning "Database could not be found!". Click OK. We will fix this in a moment.
  
• 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")

If you are having problems with the updater, you can use this link to manually update ewido.
ewido manual updates

Once the updates are installed do the following:

• Click on scanner
• Click on Complete System Scan and the scan will begin.
• You will be prompted to clean the first infection.
• Select "Perform action on all infections", then proceed.
• Once the scan has completed, there will be a button located on the bottom of the screen named Save report
• Click Save report.
• Save the report .txt file to your desktop or a location where you can find it easily.

Close ewido security suite.

Open Cleanup! by double-clicking the icon on your desktop (or from the Start > All Programs menu).
Set the program up as follows:
Click "Options..."
Move the arrow down to "Custom CleanUp!"
Put a check next to the following (Make sure nothing else is checked!):

• Empty Recycle Bins
• Delete Cookies
• Delete Prefetch files
• Cleanup! All Users

Click OK
Press the CleanUp! button to start the program.

It may ask you to reboot at the end, click NO.

Then, please run this online virus scan: ActiveScan

Copy the results of the ActiveScan and paste them here along with a new HiJackThis log and the Ewido log.

[RMM]

Good news!

Looking good after two days...Couldn't run active scan due to IE version, but everything else worked great...Ewido was really good, 939 infected objects, even after everything else we did...

Thanks for all your help.

[Guse]

Post me another HijackThis log so we can be totally sure, if you don't mind.

[Guse]

Welcome back. There are a few more things for you to do.

Close all programs leaving only HijackThis running. Place a check against each of the following, making sure you get them all and not any others by mistake:

O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [opr] C:\WINDOWS\System32\opr.exe
O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [secure] C:\WINDOWS\System32\Guddya.exe
O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [Windows Incontext] C:\DOCUME~1\Owner\LOCALS~1\Temp\InSearch.exe
O20 - Winlogon Notify: CSCSettings - C:\WINDOWS\system32\sxrstr.dll

Click on Fix Checked when finished and exit HijackThis.

Reboot into Safe Mode: please see here if you are not sure how to do this.

Using Windows Explorer, locate the following files/folders, and delete them:

C:\WINDOWS\System32\opr.exe
C:\WINDOWS\System32\Guddya.exe
C:\DOCUME~1\Owner\LOCALS~1\Temp\InSearch.exe
C:\WINDOWS\system32\sxrstr.dll

Exit Explorer, and reboot as normal afterwards. Also, let me know how the machine's been running all this time.
