Possibly infected...help would be appreciated

[leekumkee]

Hey I left my computer on overnight and when I woke up I saw an open Outlook e-mail that looked extremely suspicious. I'm positive that I had not opened it myself the night before and the only reason I think it never sent anything was because I don't have my Outlook account linked to any e-mails. My friend told me about this site and I followed the instructions on the website so here is my hijackthis log. Anyone notice anything suspicious? Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

Hello leekumkee,

Normally one should click on attachments to get infected, some are triggered from within the HMTL code ... Your hijackthis log doesn't show anything related to an infection, just a couple of items to fix. We'll do an online scan to see if anything else is present on the computer.

That said, I'm very surprised to see that you don't have :

• Any service packs installed so prolly no security updates either.
• no antivirus
• no firewall

And you are running p2p programs ... That is asking for trouble. You really need to do something about that.
______________________________

Use an AntiVirus Software

It is very important that your computer has an anti-virus software running on your machine. This alone can save you a lot of trouble with malware in the future. See the link below for a listing of some online & their stand-alone antivirus programs.
Computer Safety On line - Anti-Virus
http://www.malwareremoval.com/forum/viewtopic.php?p=53#53

Update your Anti Virus Software

It is imperative that you update your Anti virus software at least once a week (Even more if you wish). If you do not update your anti virus software then it will not be able to catch any of the new variants that may come out.

Use a Firewall

I can not stress enough how important it is that you use a Firewall on your computer. Without a firewall your computer is susceptible to being hacked and taken over. Simply using a Firewall in its default configuration can lower your risk greatly. For an article on Firewalls and a listing of some available ones see the link below.
Computer Safety On line - Software Firewalls
http://www.malwareremoval.com/forum/viewtopic.php?p=56#56
A tutorial on Understanding and Using Firewalls can be found here

Service Pack and updates

1. Download and Install Windows Service Pack 1 from here:
   http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/deta ... 3443e29d78
   If the selected language is not correct, select the language you need from the dropdown box and click on the button labeled "Change".
   Save the file to your disk, disconnect from the Internet and unplug your modem and install SP1. Reboot as requested.
2. Connect to internet, go to http://windowsupdate.microsoft.com/ and install ALL Critical Updates except Service Pack 2

Please may I insist that your perform the above steps, for your own sake.
______________________________

Run HijackThis, click on None of the above, just start the program, click on Scan. Put a check in the box on the left side of the following items if still present:

Close ALL windows and browsers except HijackThis and click Fix Checked
______________________________

I see that Viewpoint is installed. Viewpoint, Viewpoint Manager, Viewpoint Media Player are Viewpoint components which 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.

Viewpoint Manager is considered as foistware instead of malware since it is installed without user's approval but doesn't spy or do anything "bad". This may change, read Viewpoint to Plunge Into Adware.
I recommend that you remove the Viewpoint products; however, decide for yourself. To uninstall the the Viewpoint components (Viewpoint, Viewpoint Manager, Viewpoint Media Player):

1. Click Start, point to Settings, and then click Control Panel.
2. In Control Panel, double-click Add or Remove Programs.
3. In Add or Remove Programs, highlight >>Viewpoint component<< , click Remove.
4. Do the same for each Viewpoint component.

This is the item to fix in HijackThis.

Start > Run > Type Cmd.exe and hit enter

Type each of the following lines followed by enter

sc stop "Viewpoint Manager Service"
sc delete "Viewpoint Manager Service"

Close the CMD window.
