reboot into safe mode and find this folder:

C:\Documents and Settings\Dave\Local Settings\Temporary Internet Files<<clean out the contents of this folder. Not the folder itself.

Run CleanUp! and post a new log. You're doing awesome. :tazz:

Have I told you lately how much this file is ticking me off? :tazz:

Click Here to download TheKillbox. Extract TheKillBox.exe from the zip file and double click it to open it up. In the 'Enter Full Path and Filename to Delete' box, copy and paste these entries one by one, clicking 'Find and Kill This File' after each one:


C:\Documents and Settings\Dave\Local Settings\Temporary Internet Files\Content.IE5\9A795M4I\FreePeopleSearchAgent_v1[1].exe

Click 'Exit' when done.

Note: 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, download and run: http://www.javacools...ngfilesetup.exe. Then try TheKillbox again.

I was able to get online tonight, so I think we/you are making progress. Did the Active scan from Panda and here's those results...

You are making great progress. :tazz:

Download smitRem.exe and save the file to your desktop.
Double click on the file to extract it to it's own folder on the desktop.

Place a shortcut to Panda ActiveScan on your desktop.

Please download the trial version of Ewido Security Suite here:
http://www.ewido.net/en/download/

Please read Ewido Setup Instructions
Install it, and update the definitions to the newest files. Do NOT run a scan yet.

If you have not already installed Ad-Aware SE 1.06, follow these download and setup instructions, otherwise, check for updates:
Ad-Aware SE Setup
Don't run it yet!

Next, please reboot your computer in SafeMode by doing the following:
  • Restart your computer
  • After hearing your computer beep once during startup, but before the Windows icon appears, press F8.
  • Instead of Windows loading as normal, a menu should appear
  • Select the first option, to run Windows in Safe Mode.
Now scan with HJT and place a checkmark next to each of the following items:
===================================================
O4 - HKCU\..\Run: [Free People Search Agent] C:\Documents and Settings\Dave\Local Settings\Temporary Internet Files\Content.IE5\9A795M4I\FreePeopleSearchAgent_v1[1].exe


===================================================

Open the smitRem folder, then double click the RunThis.bat file to start the tool. Follow the prompts on screen.
Wait for the tool to complete and disk cleanup to finish.

The tool will create a log named smitfiles.txt in the root of your drive, eg; Local Disk C: or partition where your operating system is installed. Please post that log along with all others requested in your next reply.


Open Ad-aware and do a full scan. Remove all it finds.


Run Ewido:
  • Click on scanner
  • Click on Complete System Scan and the scan will begin.
  • NOTE: During some scans with ewido it is finding cases of false positives.
  • You will need to step through the process of cleaning files one-by-one.
  • If ewido detects a file you KNOW to be legitimate, select none as the action.
  • DO NOT select "Perform action on all infections"
  • If you are unsure of any entry found select none for now.
  • When the scan is finished, click the Save report button at the bottom of the screen.
  • Save the report to your desktop
Close Ewido

Next go to Control Panel click Display > Desktop > Customize Desktop > Web > Uncheck "Security Info" if present.

Reboot back into Windows and click the Panda ActiveScan shortcut, then do a full system scan. Make sure the autoclean box is checked!
Save the scan log and post it along with a new HijackThis Log, the contents of the smitfiles.txt log and the Ewido Log by using Add Reply.
Let us know if any problems persist.

It was exactly a file like that that lead me to GTG. It would not die.

Let's try this:

1. Start Hijackthis
2. Click on the Config button
3. Click on the Misc Tools button
4. Click on the button labeled Delete a file on reboot...
5. A new window will open asking you to select the file that you would like to delete on reboot. Navigate to the file and click on it once, and then click on the Open button.
6. You will now be asked if you would like to reboot your computer to delete the file. Click on the Yes button if you would like to reboot now, otherwise click on the No button to reboot later.

If that doesn't work, get a stick of dynamite. No, don't do that. We'll get it. Try this first. :tazz:

Not there!!!!!!!!!!

I can navigate down to C:\Documents and Settings\Dave\ but I do not have a Local Settings folder.

So I ask, how is it finding a file in a folder that does not exist??

Are you familiar with that file as bad??? My wife does some work requiring people searches and that program is one that she used on a case. (Recent news to me)

I have also tried each step in different orders with different settings, deleting cookies different ways, trying to navigate to folders and delete contents that would be deleted using other programs etc...

What next? :tazz:

It is in a temporary internet file and those should be erased with cleanup! Are you sure you have all files showing. Don't do a search, but right-click on start, then exlore and navigate to that folder.

Be sure you're able to view hidden files

I'm kind of dumb. I did have the hidden file deal switched, changed it back and found that folder, but don't see the Content.IE5 folder.
