Unread postby epalsson » January 19th, 2006, 2:21 am

Hello,

I've run several spyware scans (spybot, trendmicro, etc) and they keep finding the threat "new dot net" but are unable to fix it. Can you please help me rid my computer of this pest? Thanks so much -

Here is my hijack this log:

Hello epalsson,

Welcome to the MWR forums.

Hmmmm...... well I don't see any trace of newdotnet in your log file. It comes with its own installer, so we can check for it as we do the rest of the fix.

Go to Add/Remove programs and remove(uninstall) the following, if present:

New.net Application
New.net Domains
Viewpoint Manager

The above could appear anywhere within the entry. Be careful not to remove any personal or system software.<--Note: if you don't see New.net in Add/Remove Programs, go to Windows Explorer and look for C.:\program files\New.net (folder). You can run the UnInstaller from there. If you don't have a New.net in program files, it's very unlikely you have New.net.

Run HiJackThis then:

1. Click "Config..."
2. Click "Misc Tools"
3. Click "Open Process manager"
4. Hold down the CTRL key,
5. Cclick (highlight) each of the following (if present):

C:\Program Files\Viewpoint\Viewpoint Manager\ViewMgr.exe

6. Make sure that only those item(s) above are highlighted.
7. Click "Kill process".
8. Click "Refresh",
9. Check again. Repeat this step if any remain.

Run HiJackThis and click "Scan", then check(tick) the following, if present:

O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [ViewMgr] C:\Program Files\Viewpoint\Viewpoint Manager\ViewMgr.exe

With all windows closed except HiJackThis, click "Fix checked".

From "Safe Mode", (Reboot if necessary.) locate and delete the following item(s), if present. Make sure you're able to view system and hidden files/ folders:

To show hidden files :

1. Click Start=>Control Panel=>Folder Options=>View tab.
2. Select "Show hidden files and folders"
3. Clear the check mark in "Hide protected operating system files"=>Yes[/color] to confirm.
4. Click Apply=>OK.
5. Close Control Panel.

folders...

C:\Program Files\Viewpoint
C:\Program Files\NewDotNet

Note that some of these file(s) may not be present.

Post back a new log, and let me know how things are going. :wave:

Hello,

Well, it seems the problem is resolved! I followed all the steps you recommended, and though I never found any newdotnet files or folders, I did unintsall Viewpoint manager and delete the Viewpoint folder. I'm a little perplexed as to how the two (newdotnet and viewpoint) are linked, but I'm just happy to have my system scans show I'm clean again. :)

I'm posting another HJT log; please let me know if anything else looks suspicious. Thanks so much for your help!

Hello epalsson,

For future reference, Viewpoint and Newdotnet are not related to each other. Viewpoint is just another program that comes bundled with some undesirable elements. Onto the good news:

Congratulations! Your log looks clean - good work!

Reboot your computer, and try using different programs to make sure everything is running ok. If you're still experiencing problems, post back a description and wait for advice before continuing with the cleanup.

Download, install and run Cleanup! from Steven Gould, then:

1. Click "Cleanup!"

(wait for the program to finish scanning your system, and selecting files to be removed.)

2. Exit the program and reboot the computer, if necessary.

For more information about using Cleanup! see here.

If everything is running ok, let's do the final cleanup...

1. Run "Disk Cleanup" and allow it to remove everything it finds.

2. If you've downloaded MicroWorld AV (MWAV), run it again - but don't scan, just click "Clear Log" and exit the program.

Please skip this step 3. Go to www.trendmicro.com and click "Free Online Scan", then "Scan now, it's free!". Follow on-screen prompts.

4. Disable, then re-enable system restore; with a reboot in-between. Then immediately create a new system restore point manually.

Here are some tips, to reduce the potential for spyware infection in the future, I strongly recommend installing the following applications:
  • Spywareblaster => SpywareBlaster will prevent spyware from being installed.
  • Spywareguard => SpywareGuard offers realtime protection from spyware installation attempts.
  • How to use Ad-Aware to remove Spyware = If you suspect that you have spyware installed on your computer, here are instructions on how to download, install and then use Ad-Aware.
  • How to use Spybot to remove Spyware => If you suspect that you have spyware installed on your computer, here are instructions on how to download, install and then use Spybot. Similar to Ad-Aware, I strongly recommend both to catch most spyware
To protect yourself further:
  • IE/Spyad => IE/Spyad places over 4000 websites and domains in the IE Restricted list which will severely impair attempts to infect your system. It basically prevents any downloads (Cookies etc) from the sites listed, although you will still be able to connect to the sites.
  • MVPS Hosts file => The MVPS Hosts file replaces your current HOSTS file with one containing well know ad sites etc. Basically, this prevents your computer from connecting to those sites by redirecting them to 127.0.0.1 which is your local computer.
  • Google Toolbar => Get the free google toolbar to help stop pop up windows.
I also suggest that you delete your temporary files by deleting all files and folders that are in those folders (do not delete the temp folder itself), for example:
  • C:\WINDOWS\Temp\--->Everything After the \.
  • C:\Temp\--->Everything After the \.
  • C:\Documents and Settings\username\Local Settings\Temp\--->Everything After the \.
  • Repeat for all users.
Also delete your Temporary Internet Files:
  • Click Start=>Control Panel=>Internet options.
  • Under the Generaltab.
  • Click Delete Files button.
  • Place a check-mark in Delete all off-line content.
  • Click OK=>OK
  • Exit Control Panel
  • Repeat for all users.
Empty the recycle bin:
  • Right-click the Recycle Bin icon on your desktop.
  • Select "Empty Recycle Bin".
  • Repeat forall users.
Note: You can also do the above steps using a program such as Cleanup! from Steven Gould or CCleaner.

These steps should be done on a regular basis.

So how did I get infected in the first place?
