I have a Windows XP with PC Tools SpyDoctor w/Antivirus (but cannot update), free Spybot S&D, free AVG anti-virus & anti-rootkit, Sophos Anti-rootkit and Vundo Fix. My AVG detected and quarantined the Vundo virus along with adware, but then problems persisted. I purchased Spydoctor, but was unable to update it due to some problem w/my Common File. It detected Adware.Zeno_Search_Assistant and blocked several attempts from a "Dee Wee mcntnkdn.exe."
I searched my Process Explorer and noticed that there was a "Dee Wee Network Manager" program running that I did not recognize. I could not remove it or uninstall it. Also, in my Program Files there were 3 files "microsoft frontpage" (suspiciously in all lower caps), "xerox" (have no such program), and "movie maker" (also all in lower caps). I cannot remove or delete these files b/c it says they being used. Also, my Common Files were hidden from me.
My Spybot Search and Destroy detected the following threats: Smitfraud-C. Core Service on my C:\Windows\System32\drivers\core.cache.dsk (data) and Win.32.Small.azl on my C:\Windows\mrofinu.572.exe.tmp (executable). I had both fixed, but they are still both backed up in the Recovery section of my Spybot (I have the option of purging them completely, should I?). I went into my Add/Remove programs, found the Dee Wee Network Manager and uninstalled/removed it. However my Process Explorer shows "Dee Wee mcntnkdn.exe" still there and I had two new ad links on my desktop this morning.
I also cannot open up my data files! A pop-up shows saying "windows installer," which I cancel, but then another pop-up appears stating "Microsoft Professional XP with Frontpage: Please wait while Windows configures Microsoft Professional XP with Frontpage." I cancel this, but then a warning pop-up appears saying "Error 1317. Setup cannot create the folder C:\Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft Shared. Verify that the path exists in your system and that you have sufficient permissions to update it. When I close these 2 pop-ups, it asks me if I want to cancel installation and I say yes, then a pop-up appears showing me the file name of what I wanted to open and that "user cancelled installation."
These pop-ups continue to appear when I open up my Registry Mechanic and I have to repeatedly close them (2-3 times) before proceeding to the program. When I run my Registry Mechanic, it still flags 70 problems with my Shared DLLs, all of them located in my C: drives Common File folder. I tell the Mechanic to repair them and it does, but I do not notice any difference. I also woke up this morning to find 2 ad links on my desktop that were not there before (I have done anything with these yet).
PLEASE HELP!!! Thank you so much in advance....below is my HijackThis Log:
