Hi chesirekat99 and welcome to GeeksToGo! My name is Excal and I will be helping you.

I noticed that your HiJackthis.exe is located on your desktop, make sure to save HijackThis in its own folder (i.e. C:\HJT). This is very important, so HiJackThis can save backups!

Please print these instructions out for use in Safe Mode.

Please download VundoFix.exe to your desktop.

• Double-click VundoFix.exe to extract the files
• This will create a VundoFix folder on your desktop.
• After the files are extracted, please reboot your computer into Safe Mode. You can do this by restarting your computer and continually tapping the F8 key until a menu appears. Use your up arrow key to highlight Safe Mode then hit enter.
• Once in safe mode open the VundoFix folder and doubleclick on KillVundo.bat
• You will first be presented with a warning.

what is that one virus-looking dll program that the pandascan didn't get?
also...how can i get rid of weatherbug once and for all? i just now noticed it when i put up this hijackthis file...i got rid of that thing over a year ago.

[Excal]

If you use Windows XP, Go to My Computer->Tools->Folder Options->View tab and make sure that Show hidden files and folders is enabled. Also make sure that the System Files and Folders are showing/visible also.


Please remove the following files using Windows Explorer (if present):

C:\WINDOWS\Downloaded Program Files\pinstall.dll
C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM32\fccda.dll

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

O2 - BHO: MSEvents Object - {B313D637-F405-4052-AC37-E2119AB3C8F8} - C:\WINDOWS\system32\fccby.dll (file missing)
O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [QuickTime Task] "C:\Program Files\QuickTime\qttask.exe" -atboottime
O20 - Winlogon Notify: fccby - C:\WINDOWS\system32\fccby.dll (file missing)

click FIX CHECKED then close Hijackthis


Please reboot and let me know how everything is running.


Thanks,



Excal

[chesirekat99]

i will post it as soon as i'm home from work.

i rebooted, but because of all the virus scan programs i have on my computer, it was rather slow to start up so i didn't quite have a chance to get a new hijackthis log.

the two items you told me to delete weren't found, but i had been running ewido after the pandascan and i think those two might have been caught and cleaned by that, though i'm not sure.

[Excal]

OK, i will wait for your feed back

[chesirekat99]

there we go! everything looks ok...computer is running pretty slow, but i'm contributing that to the large amount of programs that i have running at startup (ewido, etc).

does everything look ok?

Great job, it appears your computer is clean

Ensure you rehide your “hidden files and folders” back to the way they were.

Now that your system is Malware Free, it is important to reset your system Restore. Click Here to learn how to.

I recommend that you Defrag your computer before setting your Restore points:

Go to start>all programs>accessories>system tools>Disk Defragmentor Make sure it set to the proper drive (default should be your main driver) and click on defragment


Might I suggest the following Free Spyware programs, if you don't already have them, for added security, you can download them at the following links. These programs work great for detection:

Ad-aware SE
Spybot S&D
Microsoft Anti-Spyware


If you are unhappy with your current antivirus and want to replace it or if you dont already have one, I suggest one of these free programs:
*Note - do not use more than one anti-virus program as it will more than likely cause conflict.

AVG
Avast
AntiVir


The following free programs are great for prevention:

SpywareBlaster 3.4
Spywareguard
IE/Spyad

A Firewall is a must! Here are 3 good free versions:
(do not have more than one firewall running on your system)

Sygate
Kerio
ZoneLabs

There are other options other than Internet Explorer for a browser, which some say have better security. Two of them are:

Firefox
Opera

If you decide to keep Internet Explorer, This site is a great source for tightening up security on It's settings.

Make sure that you keep your Operating System and IE updated with the latest Critical Security Updates from Microsoft...they usually come out once a month, on the 2nd Tuesday of each month.

Be sure and give the Temp folders a cleaning out now and then as well, Make sure after you clean your Temp files to empty out your Recycle bin as well.
For ease use the following program:

Cleanup
Run "Cleanup" and when it has finished, Reboot

To help prevent future spyware installations/infections, please read the Anti-Spyware Tutorial and use the tools provided. Also read So how did I get infected in the first place?

i'm sorry excal, the problem seems to be gone. i ran ewido, trojan, mcafee, spybot, and adaware and nothing showed up, so i guess it's gone.

sorry for the trouble!

[Excal]

I read your PM and the two thing you mentioned are OK. One will be fixed by resetting the system restore and the other was probally a quarantine file.

Glad everything is working
