Here, is this better? Thanks for the help. I was having a problem where Norton kept detecting w32.jeefo, but then I realized that I might at well get rid of everything that might be slowing me down.

Hi


I'm Nick :hello2: and I am going to try to help you with your problem. Please take note of two things.

1. I will working on your Malware issues, this may or may not, solve other issues you have with your machine.

2. 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.

This is a "menu" of things you need to do to your system

  • Please set your system to show
    all files; please see here if you're unsure how to do this.
  • Close all programs leaving only HijackThis running. Place a check against each of the following, making sure you get them all and not any others by mistake:

    O23 - Service: Power Manager (PowerManager) - Unknown owner - C:\WINDOWS\svchost.exe (file missing)

    Click on Fix Checked when finished and exit HijackThis.


  • Reboot into Safe Mode: please see here if you are not sure how to do this.

    Using Windows Explorer, locate the following files/folders, and delete them:

    C:\WINDOWS\svchost.exe (file missing)
    Exit Explorer, and reboot as normal afterwards.


    If you were unable to find any of the files then please follow these additional instructions:

    Download Pocket Killbox and unzip it; save it to your Desktop.

    Run it, and click the radio button that says Delete a file on reboot. For each of the files you could not delete, paste them one at a time into the full path of file to delete box and click the red circle with a white cross in it.

    The program will ask you if you want to reboot; say No each time until the last one has been pasted in whereupon you should answer Yes.

    Let the system reboot into normal mode.

    Go to http://www.sophos.com/support/disinfection/jeefoa.html and download JEEFOGUI, save it in it's own directory and run it. COnfigure it to check all files and to keep a verbose log (make sure you know where it is)

Click Start | Run and in the Open box type cleanmgr and click OK
Select drive C: and then check all of the Temporary File Locations, Recycle Bin, Temporary Files and Web client/Publisher Temporary Files.
Click OK
Confirm choice
Repeat this for each of your hard disks.


Reboot into normal mode
Post back a fresh HijackThis log and we will take another look.

Thanks for the tips Nick. I followed what you said exactly. When I ran Killbox though, it couldn't find the file. Below is the HijackThis log. It looks like that line is still there:

Hi kdene20

You say that killbox couldn't find the file. Did you find it with the normal windows explorer and delete it first? ( The file may not have been there anyway, I just wanted to delete it in case it still was).

You may want to print the rest of these instructions.

Ensure hidden files and folders are set to show;

  • Click Start.
  • Open My Computer.
  • Select the Tools menu and click Folder Options.
  • Select the View Tab.
  • Under the Hidden files and folders heading select Show hidden files and folders.
  • Uncheck the Hide protected operating system files (recommended) option.
  • Click Yes to confirm.
  • Click OK.

We need to stop a service...
- Click "Start" button then select "Run"
- Type "services.msc" (without quotes) then hit OK
- Scroll down and find the service called.

Power Manager (PowerManager)

- Right-click on Service and choose "Properties"
- On the "General" tab under "Service Status" click the "Stop" button to stop the service
- Beside "Startup Type" in the dropdown menu select "Disabled"
- Click Apply then OK. Exit the Services utility
(Note: If the service isn't listed go ahead with the rest of the instructions)



Let's delete that service
- Start HijackThis...
- Click "Config" button
- Click "Misc Tools" button
- click "Delete an NT Service" button
- Copy and Paste the bold text below in the "Delete an NT Service" window
O23 - Service: Power Manager (PowerManager) - Unknown owner - C:\WINDOWS\svchost.exe (file missing)

- Click "OK"
- Close HijackThis

Reboot into normal mode

Run HJT and post a new log back here please

You have a clean Log.
Sleep soundly .........after you do the following :-

Enable restore points
Turn ON System Restore.

  1. On the Desktop, right-click My Computer.
  2. Click Properties.
  3. Click the System Restore tab.
  4. Un-Check Turn off System Restore.
  5. Click Apply
  6. ClickOK.

{Update with SP2}
Visit Windows Update and follow the onscreen instructions to download and install SP2.
This is a time consuming process, even with a fast connection. If you use a dial-up connection you should consider getting a FREE copy
directly from Microsoft or get a friend with a fast connection to burn a copy of the upgrade to CD for you.

Update the OS regularly

Set up system to ensure a regular update of the Operating System.

Manually:

Visit Windows Update on a weekly/fortnightly REGULAR basis.

Automatically:

  1. On the Desktop, right-click My Computer.
  2. Click Properties.
  3. Click on Automatic Updates
  4. Check the option of choice (I use Automatic (Recommended)). If you use dial-up I would recommend using the
    Notify Me option so that you can download when you can afford the time and bandwidth overheads.
  5. Select the Day/Time of choice
  6. Click Apply
  7. Click OK



Secure your web browser

  1. Open Internet Explorer and click on the Tools menu and then click on
    Options.
  2. Click onSecurity
  3. Click the Internet icon
  4. Click on Custom Level.
  5. Change the Download signed ActiveX controls to Prompt
  6. Change the Download unsigned ActiveX controls to Disable
  7. Change the Initialize and script ActiveX controls not marked as safe to Disable
  8. Change the Installation of desktop items to Prompt
  9. Change the Launching programs and files in an IFRAME to Prompt
  10. Change the Navigate sub-frames across different domains to Prompt
  11. Change the Allow paste operations via script to Disable
  12. Click on OK
  13. Save (if asked).
  14. Click on Apply button
  15. Click on OK


Alternatively you could use another browser such as
Mozilla Firefox
Opera or
Netscape


Get Some Protection
The following programs are useful in the fight against Malware. Best of all, they're FREE.
Download and install any or all . Be warned though ---- Unless you keep them regularly updated you are living with a false
sense of security.


  • Ad-Aware SE - This is a
    program that scans for and removes known spyware from your machine.
  • [url=http://www.download.com/Spybot-Search-Destroy/3000-8022-10122137.html?part=dl-spybot&subj=dl&tag=but]Spybot Search &
    Destroy[/url] -Similar to Ad-Aware but more configurable and incorporates Teatime, a memory resident utility that protects the system
    registry. I recommend use both of these in tandem.
  • Spyware Blaster -
    Prevents the addition of ActiveX Controls on your machines by
    isolating the system registry.
  • IE_Spyad - Uses the inbuilt IE restriction policy to stop your browser
    from opening web pages in a much enhanced list of undesirable addresses.
    Tutorial

A good antiviral program is essential.AVG is one of the better known, and trusted, antivirals.

And Finally.........Lock the door with a Firewall . XP comes with its own simple firewall but I prefer to substitute it with
ZoneAlarm.


Remember, Paranoia is a state of mind.
I mind who watches me.
