IE is Hijacked. Can't download, paste or right-click.

Unread postby TheRhythMan » June 22nd, 2009, 7:02 am

Please help. My Internet Explorer on my Desktop computer is locked. I cannot download, paste, right-click. I can't attach files on Yahoo mail. I cannot get into menus or right-click to change any setting or even clean cache in IE. I've ran HJT on the desktop and saved the log to a USB drive so that I can post it using my laptop computer.

I've run Adaware, Spybot S&D, McAfee and MBAM. All show the system is clean, but something is definitely wrong. This recently started happening about 2 weeks ago. I tried reverting to an older system restore point. It didn't help.

Here is the log:

Thank you.

Hi TheRhythMan,
This could be difficult, but we will give it a try.
This first, if you can do it: (you may have to download and transfer via flash)
-----------------------------------------------------------
Remove Programs Using Control Panel(XP)
From Start, Settings, Control Panel or Start, Control Panel, click Add/Remove Programs.
Highlight each Entry, as follows, one by one, if it exists, and choose Remove :
Spybot S&D
Ad-aware
Punkbuster

Take extra care in answering questions posed by any Uninstaller. Some questions may be worded to deceive you into Keeping the program.
-----------------------------------------------------------
TFC(Temp File Cleaner):
  • Please download TFC to your desktop,
  • Save any unsaved work. TFC will close all open application windows.
  • Double-click TFC.exe to run the program.
  • Wait for it to Finish. If prompted, click "Yes" to reboot.

Once it reboots:
-----------------------------------------------------------
Post a New HiJackThis Log
Start HijackThis
Click Do System Scan and Save a Log File.
When the Scan is complete, select the whole log (Ctrl-A), copy and paste the log contents in a reply.

Tell me how it went. Some of this stuff may be re-installed after we fix it, if we can.

Hi Askey127,

Thanks for the assistance. I was able to get into add/remove programs and remove Spybot S&D and Ad-Aware. No separate listing for Punkbuster. I believe it was required to install an EA Game called Medal of Honor Airborne. I tried deleting all of games. Most would not uninstall properly.

I was able to download TFC onto a flash drive and run it. It prompted for reboot and then I ran a fresh HJT Log.

Since doing all of this I am unable browse at all now. IE tries to open, but just as the page begins to load the IE window closes completely.

HJT LOG:

Re: IE is Hijacked. Can't download, paste or right-click.

TheRhythMan,
You can try downloading the FireFox installer from another machine, and installing it via your flash drive. (about 7Mb)
http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/personal.html
If you are able to install it , I would not import ANY settings from IE.
-----------------------------------------------------
Download FixPolicies.exe, a self-extracting ZIP archive, and save it to your Desktop.( If necessary, save to your flash first from another machine, then copy to your desktop).
You can get it from here:: http://downloads.malwareremoval.com/BillCastner/FixPolicies.exe
  • Double-click FixPolicies.exe.
  • Click the "Install" button on the bottom toolbar of the box that will open.
  • The program will create a new Folder called FixPolicies.
  • Double-click to Open the new Folder, and then double-click the file within: Fix_Policies.cmd.
  • A black box will briefly appear and then close.
-----------------------------------------------------------
Retrieve the List of Installed programs Using HJT
Open HijackThis, click Open The Misc Tools Section. Then scroll down the list if you need to, click Open Uninstall Manager and Save List...
The List of installed programs will automatically be saved as uninstall_list.txt in your HiJackThis folder. In addition, the list opens in Notepad so you can also save as another name in another location if you wish. Please save to your flash drive if necessary and paste the contents into your next reply.
Click the "X" in the upper right corner of the HiJackThis window to close it.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Run MalwareBytes' Anti-Malware
  • Start Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware.
  • Click on The Update tab. Choose Check for Updates.
  • If an update is found, it will download and install the latest version. <==this update step may not work
  • If necessary, start Malwarebytes Anti-Malware again.
  • Once the program is running, select Perform Quick Scan, then click Scan.
  • When the scan is complete, click OK, then Show Results to view the results.
  • If it found any malware items. Be sure that every item is checked, and click Remove Selected.
  • When completed, a log will open in Notepad. Please save it to a convenient location, like your flash drive, and post the contents in your reply.
  • The log can also be found using the "Logs" tab in the program. You can click any log listed to open its contents. The logs are listed and named by time/date stamp.
-----------------------------------------------------------
Check Hard Disk For Errors
Press Start->Run, then type or copy/paste the following command into the box and press OK:
Code: Select all
cmd  /c  chkdsk  c:  |find  /v  "percent"  >> "%userprofile%\desktop\checkhd.txt"

A blank command window will open on your desktop, then close in a few minutes. This is normal.
A file and icon named checkhd.txt should appear on your Desktop. Please post the contents of this file.

I am looking for the Installed Programs list from HiJackThis, the log from MBAM, and the results from the Hard Drive check.

Hello Askey127,

Thanks for your quick response. I've been out of town for a couple of days.

I was able to install Firefox from my flashdrive. Once installed, browsing is working better. For example, I am able to cut/paste within Firefox, and I can attach files to Yahoo! mail.

MBAM is still showing no infections...as has been the case all along.

Here are the requested logs:

TheRhythMan,
-----------------------------------------------------------
Hard Disk Repair
IF Chkdsk has found any errors having to do with bad sectors in your file system, or if it reports that it cannot continue in Read-Only Mode, it needs to run a different sequence on reboot to do repairs. It can't repair the file system while Windows is running.
DO NOT START THIS SEQUENCE UNLESS YOU CAN DO WITHOUT THE MACHINE FOR AN HOUR OR TWO. It may not take very long , but could, depending on the number of files and folders.
It will not relinquish control until it is done. You cannot stop it, and it would be a BIG mistake to pull the plug.

Go To Start, Run and type cmd
hit <Enter>
Type this black text into the command window at the prompt:
chkdsk c: /F <==notice the /F, with one space between c: and /F
hit <Enter>
You will get a message that the volume is locked, with a request to do the repair on Reboot.
Answer Y
Then type exit to close the Command window.
Go to Start, Turn Off Computer and choose Reboot
It will scan again when it boots up and make the repairs as the first part of the reboot process.
Any Errors reported that are related to Bitmaps are meaningless and not serious.
-----------------------------------------------------------
The only Poker site verified to be "safe" so far is Poker Stars. I would remove Full Tilt Poker and Aztec Riches Poker, but it's your call.
Remove Programs Using Control Panel(XP)
From Start, Settings, Control Panel or Start, Control Panel, click Add/Remove Programs.
Highlight each Entry, as follows, one by one, if it exists, and choose Remove :
Java(TM) 6 Update 11
Take extra care in answering questions posed by any Uninstaller. Some questions may be worded to deceive you into Keeping the program.
------------------------------------------------------------
Download the latest version of Java SE Runtime Environment(JRE), and install it to your computer.
It is the 2nd item on the page, called JRE 6 Update 14
Select Windows and multi-language, and check to agree to the license.
Download it, choose Save, and save it to your desktop.
Then doubleclick it, and it will install the newest version of Java for you to use.
------------------------------------------------------------
If this were my machine, I would also download and install IE8 from Microsoft.

Let me know what you decided to do, and how it went.

Re: IE is Hijacked. Can't download, paste or right-click.

Hello Askey127,

Thanks for the help. We are just about there I think. The machine is running much better.

I ran chkdsk.
I tried to remove Aztec Riches Poker, but I've noticed that lately when trying to uninstall most programs I get an error popup stating "could not open install.log file". I think this is my fault. When unistalling things that I didn't use last week, I may have uninstalled WISE...could that be what is causing ther error?

I updated to Java 6 update 14 and Internet Explorer 8. Overall things are running well. I can download programs, cut/paste in both Firefox and IE8.

Thanks again.

TheRhythMan,
It's possible your problem is a known one, not of your making.
I would download the Windows Installer "Fix" package here : http://support.microsoft.com/kb/290301
This may take care of any repetitive "uninstall" problem.

It is true, however, that if you ever remove any of a program's files manually, you may not be able to get a clean Uninstall.
