I ran HijackThis, but I really don't know how to interpret the log. Can anyone help?
This all originated because I am being redirected from sites that I try and click on after searching in google.

Here is my log:

Hi av8rx,

Firstly, welcome to the Malware Removal Forum. :)
My name is Scolabar, and I'll be helping you with your malware problems.
Logs can take a while to research, so please be patient.

I am currently working under the guidance of the MRU teachers, everything I post to you, will need to be reviewed by them.
This additional review process can add some extra time to my responses, but hopefully not too much.
;)

Please note the following important guidelines before proceeding:
  1. The instructions that will be provided are for YOUR computer and system only!
    Using these instructions on a different computer can cause damage to that computer and possibly render it inoperable
    !
  2. If you have any questions or do not understand something, please do not hesitate to ask, don't guess or assume.
  3. Only post your problem at One help site. Applying fixes from multiple help sites can cause problems.
  4. Only reply to this thread, do not start another. Please, continue responding, until I give you the All Clean.
    Absence of symptoms does not necessarily mean that everything is clear.
  5. DO NOT run any other fix or removal tools unless instructed to do so!
  6. DO NOT install any other software (or hardware) during the cleaning process. This adds more items to be researched.
  7. Print each set of instructions, if possible. Your Internet connection will not be available during some fix processes.
  8. Your security programs may give warnings for some of the tools I will ask you to use. Be assured, any links I give are safe.
  9. Note: No Reply Within 3 Days Will Result In Your Topic Being Closed!

Please Note: If you haven't done so already, please read this topic ALL USERS OF THIS FORUM MUST READ THIS FIRST where the conditions for receiving help here are explained.

Please be aware that removing Malware is a hazardous undertaking. I will take care not to knowingly suggest courses of action that might damage your computer. However it is impossible for me to foresee all interactions that may happen between the software on your computer and those we'll use to clear you of infection, and I cannot guarantee the safety of your system. It is possible that we might encounter situations where the only recourse is to re-format and re-install your operating system, or to necessitate you taking your computer to a repair shop.

In light of this, it would be advisable for you to back up any important files and folders that you don't want to lose before we start.

If you follow these guidelines, things should proceed smoothly. :)
I am currently reviewing your log and will return, as soon as possible, with additional instructions.

Thank you for your patience.

Hi av8rx,

Thank you again for your patience. :)

Please read these instructions carefully before executing and perform the steps, in the order given.
lf, you have any questions about or problems with, executing these instructions, <STOP> do not proceed, post back with the question or problem before going any further.

Before we proceed please make sure any open programs are closed.

Windows Vista Advice

Please Note:
Any programs I ask you to run will need to be run in Administrator Mode. This is achieved by right-clicking the program file and selecting the Run as Administrator option.
Additionally, the built-in User Account Control (UAC) utility, if enabled, may prompt you for permission to run the program.
When prompted, please select Allow.
Reference: User Account Control (UAC) and Running as Administrator

Step 1:
TFC

Print these instructions. Save any unsaved work. TFC will close ALL open programs including your browser!

  1. Double-click on TFC.exe to run it.
    Vista - W7 users: Right-click on TFC.exe and select "Run As Administrator..." to launch the program. If you receive a UAC prompt, please allow it.
  2. TFC will now begin cleaning up the "temp" files.
    Note: This process may take only a few seconds or it could take several minutes, depending on the amount of temp files found.
  3. If prompted to reboot, click on the Yes button to confirm.

! IMPORTANT ! If TFC prompts you to reboot, please do so immediately, before proceeding with any other steps or other use of your computer.

Step 2:

  2. A black screen will open. Read the contents but do nothing.
  3. When DDS finishes Notepad will open two reports ... DDS.txt and Attach.txt
    Ignore the comments about zipping/attaching any of the report files
    The two report files are not saved anywhere. If you close Notepad before copying and pasting the contents, you will need to run DDS again.
  4. Copy and Paste the contents of both the DDS.txt and Attach.txt reports into your next reply.

Step 3:
GMER

The downloaded file will have a random filename. This prevents malware from detecting and blocking it.

Please download GMER ... random named.exe by GMER. An alternative (zip file) download is available here.
IMPORTANT: Do not run any programs while GMER is running.
CAUTION: Rootkit scans often produce false positives. Do NOT take any action on any "<--- ROOKIT" entries.

  1. Double click on the random named.exe to execute. If asked, allow the gmer.sys driver load.
    Vista - W7 users: Right-click on the random named.exe and select "Run As Administrator" to launch the program. If you receive a UAC prompt, please allow it.
  2. If it gives you a warning about rootkit activity and asks if you want to run a scan click on NO. <--- Important!
  3. On the right side panel, several boxes have been checked. Please UNCHECK the following: (See image below.)
    • IAT/EAT
    • Drives/Partition other than Systemdrive (typically C:\)
    • Show All <-- don't miss this one

    Image
    Click on image to enlarge

  4. If you don't get a warning, then click on the Rootkit/Malware tab at the top of the GMER window.
  5. Click on the Scan button.
  6. Once the scan has finished, click on Save. The Save window will open.
  7. Save the scan results as gmerroot.log to your Desktop.
  8. Double-click on the gmerroot.log file on the Desktop to open it in Notepad.
  9. Copy and Paste the entire contents of gmerroot.log into your next reply.

Step 4:
Security Check

Please download Security Check by screen317 and Save it to your Desktop.
Alternate download site: Link 2

  1. Double-click on the SecurityCheck.exe icon to run the program.
    Vista - W7 users: Right-click on SecurityCheck.exe and select "Run As Administrator" to launch the program. If you receive a UAC prompt, please allow it.
    If you receive an Open file Security Warning click the Run button.
  2. Press the Space Bar when you see the Press any key to continue... message.
    Please Note: This scan will take a short while to complete, so please be patient.
  3. When the scan has completed, a Notepad file will automatically open called checkup.txt.
  4. Save the file checkup.txt to your Desktop.
    Please Note: This output file is NOT automatically saved!
  5. Then Copy and Paste the entire contents of the checkup.txt file into your next reply.

Step 5:

  4. gmerroot.log.
  5. checkup.txt.

Thank you for the DDS logs. :)
Please can you also post the GMER and SecurityCheck logs as requested.

I tried running the gmer but i was having trouble with it, the program would either freeze, or on one occasion, I received an error message to the effect of it encountered a problem and needed to quit. I will try running the GMER program to get that log also later today.

Thank you!

Hi av8rx,

Thanks for the update. :thumbright:

If you still have problems running GMER you could try deleting the existing copy of the program, then download a fresh copy and try running that.
Let me know if you still have problems running GMER.

Please also remember to post the SecurityCheck log as well as the GMER log.

Hi av8rx,

Thank you for the update and feedback. :)

Please can you try the following:

Please Note: You will need to print these instructions as you will have no access to the Internet.

Step 1:
Boot Into Safe Mode

Make sure you have downloaded anything you need. Print these instructions as well, as you will not have Internet access!
  1. Restart your computer.
  2. Continually click on the F8 key (usually) as your computer is booting until the boot menu appears.
    The key used for your computer may be different. F8 is commonly the key used.
  3. Use up-arrow key to select Safe Mode and click Enter.
      If you have a multiple boot system (more than one operating system (OS) installed) or you have Recovery Console installed you will be shown the multi boot screen.
    • Highlight the OS you want to start.
    • Click Enter.
  4. As the system starts the screen will display various files/drivers being loaded. Windows will load your desktop.
  5. Reply Yes to the Safe Mode startup, if prompted.

Step 2:
Run GMER

  1. Double click on the random named.exe to execute. If asked, allow the gmer.sys driver load.
    Vista - W7 users: Right-click on the random named.exe and select "Run As Administrator" to launch the program. If you receive a UAC prompt, please allow it.
  2. If it gives you a warning about rootkit activity and asks if you want to run a scan click on NO. <--- Important!
  3. On the right side panel, several boxes have been checked. Please UNCHECK the following: (See image below.)
    • IAT/EAT
    • Drives/Partition other than Systemdrive (typically C:\)
    • Show All <-- don't miss this one

  7. Save the scan results as gmerroot.log to your Desktop.
  8. Please reboot the computer in Normal Mode - i.e. as normal.
  9. Double-click on the gmerroot.log file on the Desktop to open it in Notepad.
  10. Copy and Paste the entire contents of gmerroot.log into your next reply.

Step 3:

  2. Then Copy and Paste the entire contents of the checkup.txt file into your next reply.

Step 4:

  3. checkup.txt.
  4. Do you have the original Windows installation media for your PC?

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.
