Malware Infected.

[Timbuk2]

Symptoms:

Clicking on links takes me to random pages (sometimes Facebook)
Clicking on links after doing google search takes me to spam search sites
Certain sites are inaccessible; particularly when attempting to download latest definitions files for spyware programs such as Ad Aware, or Spybot.
Many sites redirect or provide broken links.

[Cypher]

Hi and welcome the forum.
My name is Cypher, and I will be helping you with your malware problems.

Please be aware that removing Malware is a potentially 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.

Because of this, I advise you to backup any personal files and folders before you start.
Read Back up your files

please note the following important guidelines.

• The instructions being given are for YOUR computer and system only!.
  Using these instructions on a different computer, can damage that computer and possibly make it inoperable!
• If you don't know or understand something, please don't hesitate to ask.
• Only post your problem at One help site. Applying fixes from multiple help sites can cause problems.
• Only reply to this thread do not start another, Please continue responding until I give you the "All Clean"
  Absence of symptoms does not mean that everything is clear.
• Please DO NOT run any other tools or scans whilst I am helping you.
• Please DO NOT install any other software (or hardware) during the cleaning process. This adds more items to be researched.
• Print each set of instructions... if possible...your Internet connection might not be available during some fix processes.
• 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.
• The logs from the tools we use can take some time to research so please be patient.
  
  
• 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.

Vista Advice:

• All applications I ask to be used will require to be run in Administrator mode. IE: Right click on and select Run as Administrator.
• The Operating System(Vista aka Windows 6) in use comes with a inbuilt utility called User Access Control(UAC).
• When prompted by this with anything I ask you to do carry out please select the option Allow.

Remove P2P Programs

• I notice there are signs of one or more P2P (Person to Person) File Sharing Programs on your computer.
  
  

  LimeWire 5.1.2

  
  
• Please read the Guidelines for P2P Programs where we explain why it's not a good idea to have them.
  
• Note: Even if you are using a "safe" P2P program, it is only the program that is safe. You will be sharing files from uncertified sources, and these are often infected. The bad guys use P2P filesharing as a major conduit to spread their wares.
  
• Click on Start > All programs > Accessories > Run.
• In the open text box copy/paste appwiz.cpl Then click Ok.
• Uninstall the programs listed above (in red) and any other P2P you have installed NOW.
• Take care when answering any questions posed by an uninstaller. Some questions may be worded to deceive you into keeping the program.

Next.

Please post a new Uninstall list.

• Open HijackThis.
• Click on the Open the Misc Tools section button.
• Look under System tools.
• Click on the Open Uninstall Manager... button.
• Click on the Save list... button.
• It will prompt you to save. Save this log in a convenient location. By default it's named uninstall_list.txt.
• Notepad will open. Please post this log in your next reply.
