Task bar is hidden. Can't cut and paste, except only with Notepad. Can't drag and drop files. McAfee security is disabled, won't open. Restore doesn't work. Internet Explorer won't open, but Firefox does. Malwarebytes won't run, get error about vbalsgrid6.ocx. Have tried many things on my own, but now realize this is beyond a simple one-time scan and fix program and my limited knowledge. Have tried PC Cleaner, Kaspersky, Hitman Pro, DrWebCureIt, Windows malicious software removal tool, and ComboFix (I know I should not have run it without direction). This problem seems similar to another post on this site about a virus called SteelWerX, but I don't know. I need help. Thanks. DDS logs posted below.

Nope. This is a home computer that my family uses to connect to the internet.

Aventail VPN supposedly would allow me to connect remotely to my work laptop, but I don't ever use it because I always bring my work laptop home. Have no idea what that other item is. I decided to do a repair reinstall of Windows XP, for which I had the original XP SP1 CD. That option got my computer functional with taskbar showing, cut and paste working, McAfee working, Internet Explorer working (ver 6), and all my files and software intact. However still not totally fixed. Could not install Malwarebytes, Windows update would not work, and a few other odd error messages. Since I was now able to copy and paste folders, I backed up everything that I wanted to save. Tried installing SP3, but it failed and then it would not reboot and start up Windows. Therefore, I did a complete reinstall of Windows XP in which the drive is reformatted. Now in process of reinstalling drivers to connect to internet and get Windows updated. Should probably close this topic at this point, unless you want to hear if I ever get back to Windows XP SP3 and everything working normal again. Not there yet.

Hi, I see you have reformatted your computer, please follow these simple guidelines in order to help keep your computer more secure:

Update your Antivirus programs and other programs regularly.
Secunia Personal Software Inspector - Copyright © Secunia.
FileHippo.com Update Checker - © Copyright FileHippo.com
F-secure Health Check - Copyright © F-Secure Corporation.

Visit Microsoft often
Keep on top of critical updates, as well as other updates for your computer.
How to configure and use Automatic Updates in Windows
Using Windows Update for Windows
Microsoft Update Home

Install additional (free) programs, that can help improve security.
Many feel that having a "layered" protection scheme is beneficial, you'll have to decide what works best for your situation.
Here are a few you can look into, if you want. :)

Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware
You have this installed already, run scans weekly (at least)... make sure you check for updates before running scans.
Download it from Malewarebytes © Malwarebytes Corporation.
Tutorials are available for installing and running, Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware.
Powerful, easy to use and free. For real-time protection you will have to purchase the product.

WinPatrol
Download it from Copyright © BillP Studios
Information about how WinPatrol works, is available Here.
(The free version of WinPatrol... provides limited real-time protection)

Install 3rd Party Firewall
As the term conveys, a firewall is an extra layer of security installed onto computers, which restricts access from the outside world.
Firewalls protect against hackers and malicious intruders.
I strongly recommend you download a free (for personal use) firewall NOW that monitors traffic in both directions... from one of these excellent vendors:
  1. Online Armor Free
  2. Ashampoo
If you are using the built-in Windows XP firewall, it does not block outgoing connections. This means that any malware on your computer is free to "phone home" for more instructions. Simply put, Windows XP contains a very basic firewall. This (XP) firewall is NO replacement for a dedicated software solution. Remember to install and have active, only one firewall at the same time. If you install one of these firewalls, remember to turn off Windows' firewall.

Read, stay informed.
To help minimize the chances of becoming re-infected, please read.
Computer Security - a short guide to staying safer online

If your computer is running slowly after your clean up, please read.
What to do if your Computer is running slowly


Once I receive your reply, unless there are other malware questions or concerns, I will have this topic closed as resolved.

Stay Safe! :)

Alander,
Thank you for the advice. My computer is functioning OK now. After re-installing Windows XP SP1, it automatically loaded IE6. Windows update would not work with IE6. Needed IE7 for that, but IE7 required SP2 or SP3. I downloaded SP3 from Microsoft but it would not install. I then downloaded SP2 and it installed OK. Then I was able to get IE7 and the automatic updates began rolling in, which included SP3. Now XP is completely updated and all seems OK.
Best regards,
Gary1957
