Computer used to send porn emails for 3 days straight

4 min read

This thread's last reply is from March 23, 2010, 3:19 AM UTC. Software, malware, and removal-tool advice below may be out of date — treat specific steps and download links with caution.

My computer has been sending porn email to, what seems like, a list of names in alphabetical order from my contacts and from unkown ones. Also I have been sending IMs filled with porn links to people in my conatct list. Please help me get rid of whatever's controlling my computer!

I have scanned with the following fully updated programs:
Avast Antivirus
MalwareBytes
Spybot SD

Thanks!
Hello and welcome to Malware Removal.

My name is km2357 and I will be helping you to remove any infection(s) that you may have.

I will be giving you a series of instructions that need to be followed in the order in which I give them to you.

If for any reason you do not understand an instruction or are just unsure then please do not guess, simply post back with your questions/concerns and we will go through it again.

Please do not start another thread or topic, I will assist you at this thread until we solve your problems.

Lastly the fix may take several attempts and my replies may take some time but I will stick with it if you do the same.

Sorry for the delay in replying, the forum is very busy. If you still need help, please post a fresh HiJackThis Log
prizman? Do you still need help?
km2357.

I really appreciate your response to my problem and I am sorry it took so long for me to get back to you. I ended up completely wiping out the computer and re-installing XP on it.

Again, I really appreciate your help!

Thanks,
prizman
