how about another HJT and WindPFind log ?
Please carry on with the rest of the instructions
Thanks for the help, but i guess i'll hav to let it go and reinstall everything (when the time comes)
It's getting more and more serious and i dont think i'll proceed any further. Please do whatever u should, such as locking this thread or something...
Thanks again for the help, i really appreciate it.
Apologies for the delayed reply
A format is the best choice and it needs to be done as soon as possible
Below are my normal recommendations to keep a machine clean
You now appear to be clean. Congratulations!
- Use an antivirus program
Two good free programs are
AVG
Avast<I use this one
Two good paid-for programs are
NOD32
Bitdefender
Whichever antivirus you choose, it is essential that you keep it up to date - Use a firewall
While the firewall built into windows XP will protect you from incoming attacks, it will not monitor outgoing connections
It is therefore recommended that you install one of the following firewalls
Sunbelt kerio personal firewall
Zonealarm
- Keep windows up to date with the latest patches
IMPORTANT: You Need to Update Windows and Internet Explorer to protect your computer from the malware that is around on the Internet. Please go to the windows update site to get the critical updates.
If you are running Microsoft Office, or any portion thereof, go to the Microsoft's Office Update site and make sure you have at least all the critical updates installed (Free) Microsoft Office Update.
- Install spywareblaster
Spyware blaster is a program that stops known malicious activex controls from installing on your computer. It works by changing settings in your registry. It makes
kill bits
in the registry, so that certain activex controls can't install.
If you don't know what activex controls are, see here
You can download SpywareBlaster here here
Make sure to update it on a regular basis - Install IE-SPYAD
Dowload and instructions located here
Make sure to update it on a regular basis - Use a HOSTS file
- Every version of windows has a hosts file as part of them.
- In a very basic sense, they are used to locate webpages.
- We can customize a hosts file so that it blocks certain webpages.
- However, it can slow down certain computers.
- This is why using a hosts file is optional!!
Download it here. Make sure you read the instructions on how to install the hosts file. There is a good tutorial here
If you decide to download the hosts file, the slowdown problems can usually be avoided by following these steps:
Click the start button (at the lower left hand corner of your screen) Click run In the dialog box, type services.msc hit enter, then locate dns client Highlight it, then double-click it. On the dropdown box, change the setting from automatic to manual. Click ok
- Install and use Ad-aware & Spybot search & destroy
Instructions are located here
Make sure to update them on a regular basis - Most exploits are aimed at internet explorer, so I recommend you switch to an altenative browser
Two good alternative browsers are
Firefox
Opera
It is essential to update to the latest version of your browser, as the updates fix known security holes - Even if you do decide to switch to another browser, it is still a good idea to lock down Internet explorer
This can be done by following these simple instructions:
From within Internet Explorer click on the Tools menu and then click on Options.
Click once on the Security tab
Click once on the Internet icon so it becomes highlighted.
Click once on the Custom Level button.
Change the Download signed ActiveX controls to Prompt
Change the Download unsigned ActiveX controls to Disable
Change the Initialize and script ActiveX controls not marked as safe to Disable
Change the Installation of desktop items to Prompt
Change the Launching programs and files in an IFRAME to Prompt
Change the Navigate sub-frames across different domains to Prompt
Change the allow paste operations via script to Disable
When all these settings have been made, click on the OK button.
If it prompts you as to whether or not you want to save the settings, press the Yes button.
Next press the Apply button and then the OK to exit the Internet Properties page. - Clean out you temp file on a regular basis
I use and recommend ATF Cleaner by Attribune
To use it, follow these instructions
- Double-click ATF-Cleaner.exe to run the program.
- Click Main at the top and choose Select All from the list.
- Click the Empty Selected button.
If you use Firefox browser:
- Click Firefox at the top and choose Select All from the list.
- Click the Empty Selected button.
- NOTE: If you would like to keep your saved passwords, please click No at the prompt.
If you use Opera browser:
- Click Opera at the top and choose Select All from the list.
- Click the Empty Selected button.
- NOTE: If you would like to keep your saved passwords, please click No at the prompt.
Click Exit on the Main menu to close the program. - Finally I am trying to make one point very clear. It is absolutely essential to keep all of your security programs up to date
