Redirect Issues, started yesterday

Unread postby pxalpha97 » December 15th, 2010, 8:44 pm

OK, so I was doing some research for school when my browser started redirecting to various websites (the majority of them contained the phrase "riva.1317"). I figured I had been infected with malware that updated my registry settings with a proxy server however that wasn't the case. I checked the registry and there was nothing there but somehow my computer was being redirected. I also noticed that my Windows Vista downloads were failing and I assumed it was related to this issue. I rebooted in Safe Mode, ran several softwares (Ad-Aware, MalwareBytes, HiJack This, Spybot, etc.) but nothing seemed to clear the error. I even ran regristry cleaning sofware but that didn't work. A friend of mine told me to try Combofix which I did and I'm not sure if it was successful. It appears to have deleted a file lsprst7.dll which I'm finding mixed information on. Some sites list it as malware and others list it as being a valid file for SPSS (which is a software that I've used in the past 3 months). I'm posting this in Safe Mode with Networking and I was hoping that someone could review my log file to let me know if I need to take additional steps.

_________________________________
Welcome to the Forums.

Sorry for the delay in getting back to you.

The fixes we will use are specific to your problems and should only be used for this issue on this machine.

Please only use this topic to reply to. Do not start another thread.
If any other issues arise let me know.
The process is not instant.
Please continue to review my answers until I tell you your machine is clear.
Absence of symptoms does not mean that everything is clear.
So lets do this to the end!



  • Save and quit any work your doing before beginning the fix.
  • All hijackthis logs I ask for should be done in normal mode ( not safe mode)
  • These logs should be done last after you have followed my instructions in the previous post.
  • DO NOT be installing new programs while we are fixing this machine.
  • Be sure to use the subscribe button to receive notification by Email that you have been replied to.
    If I do not hear from you in 3 days from my last post this topic will be closed. You will need to start another.


Please if you decide to seek help at another forum let us know. There is a shortage of helpers and tying 2 of us up is a waste of time.
If you have any questions about any advice given here please STOP and ask!


NOTE to Vista and windows 7 users:
For any tool I ask you to run you will need to "right click on it and choose
"Run as Administrator"


Running in safe mode with networking isn't safe. Your anti virus program isn't running whilst you do this and leaves you wide open to other infections.








___________________________________
uninstall spybot search and destroy.
Although it's a good program it sometimes stops us from making changes we need to.
You can reinstall it later when we are finished..
Just easier this way.



Running Combo fix on your own is risky at best.
But as long as you have let me see the log from it.
It's in C:\ComboFix.txt

Post that for me.

Due to a lack of response, this topic is now closed.

If you still require help, please open a new thread in the Infected? Virus, malware, adware, ransomware, oh my! forum, include a fresh FRST log, and wait for a new helper.
