I have some kind of annoying virus that opens ad windows on my computer. Here is the Hijack this. I have DSL and am running XP if that matters. Thank you in advance for any help.

Please read this post completely, it may make it easier for you if you copy and paste this post to a new text document or print it for reference later.

This will likely be a few step process in removing the malware that has infected your system. I encourage you to stick with it and follow my directions as closely as possible so as to avoid complicating the problem further.

You have a nasty CoolWebSearch infection. First we will need to download a few tools that will help us in the removal of your problem.

Download about:buster by RubbeRDuckY Here.
Download CWShredder Here.
Download SpSeHjfix Here.
Download and install CleanUp! Here

Save all of these files somewhere you will remember like to the Desktop.

Unzip SpSeHjfix to its own folder (ie c:\SpSeHjfix)

Run the CleanUp! installer. You dont need to do anything with it right now.

Update About:Buster
  • Unzip the contents of AboutBuster.zip and an AboutBuster directory will be created.
  • Navigate to the AboutBuster directory and double-click on AboutBuster.exe.
  • Click "OK" at the prompt with instructions.
  • Click "Update" and then "Check For Update" to begin the update process.
  • If any updates exist please download them by clicking "Download Update" then click the X to close that window.
  • Now close About:Buster
Update CWShredder
  • Open CWShredder and click I AGREE
  • Click Check For Update
  • Close CWShredder
Boot into Safe Mode:
Restart your computer and as soon as it starts booting up again continuously tap F8. A menu should come up where you will be given the option to enter Safe Mode.

Please run about:buster by RubbeRDuckY:
  • Click Start and then OK to allow AboutBuster to scan for Alternate Data Streams.
  • Click Yes to allow it to shutdown explorer.exe.
  • It will begin to check your computer for malicious files. If it asks if you would like to do a second pass, allow it to do so.
  • When it has finished, click Save Log. Make sure you save it as I may need a copy of it later.
  • Reboot your computer into safe mode again
Run about:buster again following the same instructions as above, this time without the restart at the end

Now run CWShredder. Click I Agree, then Fix and then Next, let it fix everything it asks about.

Now run SpSeHjfix. A log will be saved in the same folder that you put the exe into. Please post the results of that log in your next reply.

Now run CleanUp!. Click CleanUp and allow it to delete all the temporary files.Reboot your computer into normal windows.

After all that, please post back with how things went as well as the logs requested and a new HiJackThis log.

Is there anything else in there I should try to fix? Also I have MCAFEE and Windows firewall but I continue to get the bugs/trojans/malware/whatever they are, is there a good program to block these things?
Thank you again for your help! :tazz:

Click on Start ---> Run. Type Services.msc and hit enter. Locate the item - Remote Procedure Call (RPC) Helper. Right click on it and then click on properties. In the Startup Type choose the option Disable. Close the window.


Run Hijack This and click on scan. The following items need to be fixed -

R0 - HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main,Start Page =
R3 - Default URLSearchHook is missing
O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [iear.exe] C:\WINDOWS\system32\iear.exe


Close all windows other than Hijack This. Check the boxes next to above items and click on Fix checked.

Open Windows Explorer (right click on Start and then click on explore). Locate and delete the following files -

C:\WINDOWS\system32\iear.exe
C:\WINDOWS\msru.exe


Reboot the PC and post a fresh HJT log
