Hello,

I have a problem with this adware (or whatever its type is), it sometimes reinstalls Firefox and install a fake google chrome. Every now and then (in a space of 2 days) it makes all again, and I erase it. I delete the folders it creates on my Program files (x86), then erase the shortcuts and then I replace the original Chrome on my task bar.

But currently, I found out this: My files on the "etc" folder, host, network, protocol, services are type "deal4real". I'm not sure what type they are suppose to be but I'm sure they are not suppose to be that type.

Right now, my chrome has as it search engine "mystarting123" and I can't change that.

Hope this is enough, or it explains it.

Thank you for your time :)
Hello Rold,

P2P Advisory!
IMPORTANT: There are signs of one or more P2P (Peer to Peer) File Sharing Programs installed on your computer.
µTorrent
uTorrentBar_ES Toolbar

As long as you have the P2P program(s) installed, per Forum Policy,
I can offer you no further assistance
.

If you choose NOT to remove the program(s), please indicate that in your next reply and this topic will be closed.

Otherwise, please perform the following steps:

Step 1.
Remove P2P Program
  1. Please press the Windows Key + R.
  2. Enter appwiz.cpl into the text box and click OK.

  4. Click on the Change/Remove button to uninstall it.
  5. When the program have been uninstalled, please close Control Panel
  6. Reboot (restart) your computer.

By using any form of P2P networking to download files you can anticipate infestations of malware to occur. The P2P program itself may be safe but the files may not - use P2P at your own risk!
Keep in mind that this practice may be the source of your current malware infestation.

Step 3.
TSG - SysInfo utility

  2. Right click SysInfo.exe and select "Run As Administrator" to run it... if UAC prompts, please allow it.
  3. The small square window will be opened with already highlighted text - please right click on it, select Copy and then paste it in your next post.


Then:
Please tell me is this computer used for business or educational purposes and/or connected to a business or educational network?
I need to know it - so I can provide the proper instructions.

Please post each log separately to prevent it being cut off by the forum post size limiter.
Check each after you've posted it to make sure it's all present, if any log is cut off you'll have to post it in sections...

Don't post anything as attachments unless I will ask you about it specifically!

Please include in your next reply:
  1. Your decision about P2P programs
  2. Do you have any problems executing the instructions?
  3. Contents of CKFiles.txt log file

Couldn't locate "uTorrentBar_ES Toolbar", only could uninstall "µTorrent".

And the link for "SysInfo.exe" doesn't give me anything to download.
Whats the CKScanner gave me:

CKScanner 2.5 - Additional Security Risks - These are not necessarily bad
c:\program files\haste\haste esports accelerator\windivert.dll
c:\program files\haste\haste esports accelerator\windivert64.sys
