Hi Floete :) ,

Welcome to MRU. I would like to help you. In order to do that, I need to research into the items in your log, which takes a considerable time. Please be patient. In the mean time, if you have any questions, please post them in this thread and I'll be notified.

Hi Floete,

Thanks for being patient. :) I've done my research and we'll start with downloading some programs and running them later. Let's begin.

Download:

Adaware SE 1.06

1) Run Ad-Aware, and click Check for updates now.

2) Select Configurations (click the Gear wheel at the top) as follows:

  • General Button > Safety & Settings: Check (Green) all three.
  • Tweak Button > Cleaning Engine > UNcheck "Always try to unload modules before deletion".

Click Proceed. Do not run it yet

Spybot S & D

In the Menu Bar at the top of the Spybot window you will see 'Mode'. Make certain that 'default mode' has a check mark beside it.
Close ALL windows except Spybot S&D
Click the button to 'Search for Updates' then download and install the Updates.
Click on "immunize" button to complete the update. Do not run it yet.

Ewido Security Suit

When installing, under "Additional Options" uncheck "Install background guard" and "Install scan via context menu".
When you run ewido for the first time, you may get a warning "Database could not be found!". Click OK. We will fix this in a moment.
From the main ewido screen, click on update in the left menu, then click the Start update button.
After the update finishes (the status bar at the bottom will display "Update successful") Do not run it yet.

I noticed that you have an older version of Java. Sun's Java is sometimes updated in order to eliminate the exploitation of perceived vulnerabilities in an existing version. For this reason, it's extremely important that you keep the program up to date, and also remove the older more vulnerable versions from your system. The most current version of Sun Java is: Java Runtime Environment Version 5.0 Update 5 .

To check your version to see if it is the latest version, Please go to this link to verify your version to get the updates needed:
http://www.java.com/en/download/windows_automatic.jsp

You'll need to use IE and allow ActiveX for this update. Follow the instructions on that page to verify Your Java software

Or you can get the manual download here:
http://www.java.com/en/download/manual.jsp

Once you have installed the latest update, please go to Start>Control Panel>Add/Remove Programs and remove all older instances of Java listed there.

Next, please reboot your computer in Safe Mode by doing the following:
1) Restart your computer
2) After hearing your computer beep once during startup, but before the Windows icon appears, press F8.
3) Instead of Windows loading as normal, a menu should appear
4) Select the first option, to run Windows in Safe Mode.

Then please run Ewido, click on the Scanner and run a full scan and let it clean everything it finds. Save the logfile from the scan.


Restart your computer in normal mode and please post a new HijackThis log, as well as the log from the Ewido scan.

well, let's see:

1 / i updated adaware but didn't run it, per your instructions.
2/ sadly, for some reason, i cannot get spybot to open on my laptop. it'll install but when i go to get it to open, i get the hourglass for a second, then nothing. why this i do not know.
3/ i ran ewido but at the end did not see a place to save a single report that i could post. instead, under analysis, i was able to save three reports. they are appended under the hijackthis report.

thanks for your continued help!

Hi Floete,

I am sorry you ran into some difficulties. :( We'll try to solve them.

Go to Start>Contol Panel> Add/Remove Programs and delete them as both are classified as adware, see here and here:

SurfAccuracy
Paltalk
Viewpoint
=============see the note below:

Viewpoint components are installed as a side effect of installing other software, most notably AOL and AOL Instant Messenger (AIM). Viewpoint Manager is responsible for managing and updating Viewpoint Media Player's components. You can disable this using the Viewpoint Manager Control Panel found in the Windows Control Panel menu. By selecting "Disable auto updating for the Viewpoint Manager" the player will no longer attempt to check for updates. Anything that is installed without your consent is suspect. Read what Viewpoint says and make your own decision.

To provide a satisfying consumer experience and to operate effectively, the Viewpoint Media Player periodically sends information to servers at Viewpoint. Each installation of the Viewpoint Media Player is identifiable to Viewpoint via a Customer Unique Identifier (CUID), an alphanumeric identifier embedded in the Viewpoint Media Player. The Viewpoint Media Player randomly generates the CUID during installation and uses it to indicate a unique installation of the product. A CUID is never connected to a user's name, email address, or other personal contact information. CUIDs are used for the sole purpose of filtering redundant information. Each of these information exchanges occurs anonymously.


I recommend that you remove the Viewpoint products also; however, decide for yourself.

Go to Start > Run and type: CLEANMGR.EXE and hit enter.
When prompted select the C: drive and click ok.
Check the boxes for:
    Temporary Internet Files
    Downloaded Program Files
    Recycle Bin
    Temporary Files
Click OK or Enter

Make sure that you can see hidden files

Start>My Computer>Tools>Folder Options>View

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.
Uncheck the Hide file extensions for known file types.
Click OK.

At this point you may feel more comfortable if you print out the instructions so that you'll have access to them when you are in Safe Mode.

Reboot your computer in Safe Mode using the F8 method below.

If the computer is running, shut down Windows, and then turn off the power.
Wait 30 seconds, and then turn the computer on.
Start tapping the F8 key. The Windows Advanced Options Menu appears. If you begin tapping the F8 key too soon, some computers display a "keyboard error" message. To resolve this, restart the computer and try again.
Ensure that the Safe Mode option is selected.
Press Enter. The computer then begins to start in Safe mode.

Run HijackThis. Close all other windows except HijackThis. Put a checkmark against the following entries.

R0 - HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main,Start Page = http://my.myway.com/
R1 - HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main,Search Bar = http://red.clientapps.yahoo.com/customi ... earch.html
R0 - HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main,Start Page = http://red.clientapps.yahoo.com/customi ... .yahoo.com
R3 - Default URLSearchHook is missing
O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [SurfAccuracy] C:\Program Files\SurfAccuracy\SAcc.exe
O4 - Startup: PalNetaware.lnk = C:\Program Files\Paltalk\pnetaware.exe
O16 - DPF: {42F2C9BA-614F-47C0-B3E3-ECFD34EED658} (Installer Class) - http://66.29.7.159/toolbar/cabs/free_access.cab
O16 - DPF: {F5820AD3-9B20-423E-B2AA-7AF2B4055746} (CRegistryDownload Class) - http://download.paltalk.com/download/0.x/regdload.cab
O23 - Service: Mouse Hardware Sync (mousehs) - Unknown owner - C:\WINDOWS\System32\mousehs.exe

O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [ViewMgr] C:\Program Files\Viewpoint\Viewpoint Manager\ViewMgr.exe ----if you uninstalled it.

Click on the "Fix checked" button. Exit from HJT.

Still in Safe Mode delete the following folders, in bold, if found:
C:\Program Files\Viewpoint
C:\Program Files\SurfAccuracy
C:\Program Files\Paltalk

and delete the following file, if found:

C:\WINDOWS\System32\mousehs.exe

Still in Safe Mode run Ewido Security Suit

Click on the Scanner button in the left menu, then click on Settings, and under "What to scan?", select "Every file" then click ok.
Then click on Complete System Scan. This scan can take quite a while to run.

If ewido finds anything, it will pop up a notification. We have been finding some cases of false positives with the new version of Ewido, so we need to step through the fixes one-by-one. If Ewido finds something that you KNOW is legitimate (for example, parts of AVG Antivirus, pcAnywhere and the game "Risk" have been flagged), select "none" as the action. DO NOT check "Perform action with all infections". If you are unsure of an entry, select "none" for the time being. I'll see that in the log you will post later and let you know if ewido needs to be run again.

When the scan finishes, click on "Save Report". This will create a text file. Make sure you know where to find this file again. Do Not reboot yet.

Still in Safe Mode run Spybot S & D

a. In the Menu Bar at the top of the Spybot window you will see 'Mode'. Make certain that 'default mode' has a check mark beside it.
b. Close ALL windows except Spybot S&D
c. Click the button to 'Search for Updates' then download and install the Updates.
d. Next click the button 'Check for Problems'
e. When Spybot is complete, it will be showing RED entries, BLACK entries and GREEN entries in the window.
f. Make sure that there is a check mark beside all of the RED entries ONLY.
g. Choose Fix Selected Problems and allow Spybot to fix the RED entries.

If it has trouble removing any spyware, you will get a message window, asking if it would be ok to run Spybot - S&D on the next reboot before any other applications start running. You should reply Yes to this. The next time you start Windows, Spybot will run automatically and fix any of the programs it could not fix previously.

At this point you will be presented with the list of found entries again, but now there will be large green checkmarks next to the items that Spybot - S&D was able to remove. The ones that are still checked but do not have the large green checkmark next to them will be fixed on the next reboot of windows. Do Not Reboot Yet.

Still in Safe Mode run Adaware SE

To start the scan, Click > "Scan Now" at left

  • Deselect "Search for negligible risk entries" as negligible risk entries (MRU's) are not considered to be a threat.
  • Select "Search for low-risk threats"
  • Select "Perform full system scan"
  • Click Next
When the scan has completed, select Next.

  • In the Scanning Results window, select the "Critical Objects" tab.
  • Right-click on the screen and choose "Select all objects"
  • Click Next to remove the infections found, and click OK to the prompt.

Reboot in Normal Mode to complete the scan and clear memory

Please do an online scan with Kaspersky Online Scanner

Click on Kaspersky Online Scanner

You will be promted to install an ActiveX component from Kaspersky, Click Yes.
  • The program will launch and then start to download the latest definition files.
  • Once the scanner is installed and the definitions downloaded, click Next.
  • Now click on Scan Settings
  • In the scan settings make that the following are selected:
    • Scan using the following Anti-Virus database:
      • Extended (If available otherwise Standard)
    • Scan Options:
      • Scan Archives
      • Scan Mail Bases
  • Click OK
  • Now under select a target to scan select My Computer
  • The scan will take a while so be patient and let it run. Once the scan is complete it will display if your system has been infected.
  • Now click on the Save as Text button:
  • Save the file to your desktop.
  • Copy and paste that information in your next post.
and
Panda's ActiveScan and perform a full system scan.
- Once you are on the Panda site click the "Scan your PC" button
- A new window will open...click the big "Check Now" button
- Enter your Country
- Enter your State/Province
- Enter your e-mail address and click send
- Select either Home User or Company
- Click the big Scan Now button
- If it wants to install an ActiveX component allow it
- It will start downloading the files it requires for the scan (Note: It will take a couple minutes)
- Click on "Local Disks" to start the scan
- When the scan completes, if anything malicious is detected, click the See Report button, then Save Report and save it to a convenient location.

Please reboot (Normal Mode), run HijackThis again and post the new HijackThis log along with reports from Ewido and the online virus scans from Kaspersky and Panda.

also: after completing the instructions -- and i don't know if these things are related -- but something weird happened to an email program i used called eprompter. for some reason, the eprompter.exe disppeared. it's not in the eprompter folder or anywhere else.
sheeeeesh!
plus, i keep getting lots of pop ups.
anyway, i guess i'm going to ignore that windows message and reboot so i can run hijack this and send you all the crap i've got.
and believe me there's a lot of it.
