I have already downloaded Ewido, Spyware Guard, Adaware, and use Spybot, AVG, and Zone Alarm. I have run them to try to clean up things, to no avail. Any help here? Thank you.

Then go to Menu, file, exit.
Then confirm the program is closed.
Reverse the process when you’ve carried out the advise.

***

Please read these instructions carefully. You may want to print them. Copy the text to a Notepad file and save it to your desktop! We will need the file later.
Be sure to follow ALL instructions!

***

Please download noahdfear's smitRem.exe©. Save the file to your desktop. Double click on the file to extract it to it's own folder on the desktop.

***

Launch ewido, there should be an icon on your desktop double-click it.

The program will now go to the main screen

There still appears to be some problem. I have moved all of them to the recycle bin so if I need one for some reason it is still there. Let me know what to do. Instinct says to delete the dialer, but I will wait for your instruction.

I am running the spy wares and the anti virus.

Edited by klx678, 12 November 2005 - 02:53 PM.

[g2i2r4]

You can remove the dialer file too.
Something else showed up. Let's get that too.

***

Please disable SpywareGuard, as it will stand in the way of us cleaning up:

Right click the running icon of Spywareguard, it will open the program.
Then go to Menu, file, exit.
Then confirm the program is closed.
Reverse the process when you’ve carried out the advise.

***

Download FixWareout to your desktop.
Run fixwareout and simply follow the prompts, you will need to reboot when prompted.

Afterwards, HijackThis will launch. Please click Scan, and check the following items:


O2 - BHO: HomepageBHO - {e9ccf15d-4c68-4b5a-9e9a-8e12e4bd39bd} - C:\WINDOWS\System32\hp703B.tmp (file missing)


Click Fix Checked. Close HijackThis, and click OK to proceed.

Please post the contents of the report.txt in the Fixwareout folder, along with a new HijackThis log.

[klx678]

I downloaded FixWareout and ended up with a folder with the following folders and what appears to be an uninstall file :

FindT folder
Sub folder
and the fixit.BAT that appears to be the uninstall file.
Which file do I need to run?

Also, I really appreciate the help, I'll see if I can afford to kick in some money.

Mark

[g2i2r4]

If you download FixWareout and save it to your desktop.
Doubleclick the fixwareout setup file. Click Next, then Install, then make sure "Run fixit" is checked and click Finish. The fix will begin; follow the prompts. You will be asked to reboot your computer; please do so. Your system may take longer than usual to load; this is normal.

When your system reboots, follow the prompts. Afterwards, HijackThis will launch. Please click Scan, and check the following items:
O2 - BHO: HomepageBHO - {e9ccf15d-4c68-4b5a-9e9a-8e12e4bd39bd} - C:\WINDOWS\System32\hp703B.tmp (file missing)

Click Fix Checked. Close HijackThis, and click OK to proceed.

Finally, please post the contents of the logfile C:\fixwareout\report.txt, along with a new HijackThis log.

[klx678]

Sorry, been off for a while with other tasks. I am attaching a word doc. with the screen showing what files I have from the download. The fixit.bat apparently will remove the download. I am at a loss what to do.

Attached Files

•  printscreen_for_geekstogo.doc   474.5KB   10 downloads

[g2i2r4]

Download Brute Force Uninstaller.
Place the file in the fixwareout\sub\ folder.

Now run the fixwareout\fixit.bat again and follow the prompt to restart, Hijackthis will open, just close it,
after windows loads post the contents of the logfile C:\fixwareout\report.txt and a fresh HJT log.
