Just to make sure, am I posting the correct location for that winlogin.exe file? Check the path to see if it's the same as I'm posting. If not, give me the path to that file.

OK, let's use a different approach and see if it will fix the aurora problem:

Download Ewido Security Suite at http://www.ewido.net/en/download/ and install it. Update to the newest definitions. Do NOT run it yet.

Please download nailfix at http://users.pandora...chy/nailfix.zip (for Windows XP) or http://users.pandora...y/nailfix2k.zip (for Windows 2000) Unzip it to the desktop but do NOT run it yet.

Download KillBox http://www.greyknigh...spy/KillBox.exe. Don't run it yet.

Reboot into Safe Mode by hitting the F8 key repeatedly until a menu shows up (and choose Safe Mode from the list). In some systems, this may be the F5 key, so try that if F8 doesn't work.

Once in Safe Mode, please double-click on nailfix.bat (or nailfix2k.bat if you have Windows 2000). Your desktop and icons will disappear and reappear, and a window should open and close very quickly --- this is normal.

Next run a full scan in Ewido. Post the log from the Ewido scan here.

Run a scan in HijackThis. Check each of the following and hit 'Fix checked' (after checking them) if they still exist (make sure not to miss any):

F2 - REG:system.ini: Shell=Explorer.exe C:\WINDOWS\Nail.exe
O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [ovxwfzc] c:\windows\system32\tnglhn.exe
O4 - Global Startup: winlogin.exe


Close all open windows except for HijackThis and click Fix Checked.

Run KillBox and check the box that says 'End Explorer Shell While Killing File'. Next click on 'Delete on Reboot'. For each of the following files below, check the box that says 'Unregister .dll Before Deleting' if it's not grayed out. Copy and paste each of the following into KillBox (hitting the X button for each file - choose NO when it asks if you want to reboot):

c:\windows\system32\tnglhn.exe
C:\WINDOWS\Nail.exe
C:\WINDOWS\JSSUYM~1.EXE
C:\WINDOWS\System32\DRPMON.DLL
C:\Documents and Settings\Owner\Start Menu\Programs\Startup\winlogin.exe

Restart your computer in normal mode and post a new HijackThis log, as well as the log from the Ewido scan.

not sure how to find the path for that, the only things I can see with winlogin in it is the [global startup] winlogin.exe (or whatever the file is your telling me to delete)

Yes, we can see it in the log, but I want to know where it is in your computer? I mean the actual winlogin.exe file. Do a search for it and you should see the exact location of it. Delete it from there and fix that O4 entry in HijackThis for winlogin.exe

Check for any updates for your norton antivirus program and run a full system scan for any possible viruses.

I want you to run a new mwav scan and post the log here.

Restart and post a new HijackThis log.
