[djh57]

I've got the Winfixer and other popups and from reading the forum here believe I have the Vundo problem.
I use Trend PC-Illin, Spy-Bot, AdAware and Spyware Doctor.
Here is my current HijackThis Log - can someone help? Thanks.

Hi djh57 and welcome to GeeksToGo! My name is Excal and I will be helping you.

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.
  It should look like this

Looks like I have more to do?
Thanks for your help.

almost done

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

O2 - BHO: MSEvents Object - {B313D637-F405-4052-AC37-E2119AB3C8F8} - C:\WINDOWS\system32\pmkhi.dll (file missing)
O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [Alcmtr] ALCMTR.EXE
O20 - Winlogon Notify: pmkhi - C:\WINDOWS\system32\pmkhi.dll (file missing)

click FIX CHECKED then close Hijackthis

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.

Think this file won't be there anymore, but see if you can locate it and delete it:

C:\WINDOWS\system32\awvvt.dll

Go ahead an reboot, and let me know how everything is running

Everything now looks great - I re-ran all the various scanning tools and all show clean!
You guys are awesome - thanks.

Thanks and Happy Holidays

Great job, it appears your computer is clean

If you have unhidden you “hidden files and folders”, ensure you rehide them 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?
