Hi Paul,

1. It seems Spybot's TeaTimer and Windows Defender are interfering with our fix. We need to disable them temporarily.

Windows Defender
  • Open Windows Defender.
  • Click on Tools > General Settings.
  • Scroll Down and Uncheck Turn on real-time Protection (recommended).
  • After you uncheck these, click on the Save button and close Windows Defender.
  • Right click on the Windows Defender icon on the taskbar and select Shutdown Windows Defender.
Spybot's TeaTimer
  • Run Spybot Search & Destroy
  • Go to the Mode menu, and make sure "Advanced Mode" is selected
  • On the left hand side, choose Tools -> Resident
  • Uncheck "Resident TeaTimer" and OK any prompts
  • Exit SpyBot
You can enable these once we have finished with the cleanup.

2. Open HijackThis
- Click the Do a system scan only button
- Check the following entries (below)

O2 - BHO: (no name) - {029D7E20-C75C-4FDF-B402-74863BC84D00} - (no file)
O2 - BHO: (no name) - {2C200CE6-2910-44BC-8E3F-E2ADFC88688B} - (no file)

O2 - BHO: (no name) - {FDD3B846-8D59-4ffb-8758-209B6AD74ACC} - (no file)

O20 - Winlogon Notify: ndsc - C:\WINDOWS\


- Close ALL open windows (especially Internet Explorer!)
- Click Fix Checked
Close HiajckThis

3. Your Java is out of date. Older versions have vulnerabilities that malware can use to infect your system. Please follow these steps to remove older version Java components and update to the latest version...

Updating Java:
  • Download the latest version of Java Runtime Environment (JRE) 6.
  • Click the "Download" button to the right.
  • Check the box that says: "Accept License Agreement."
  • The page will refresh.
  • Click on the link to download Windows Offline Installation with or without Multi-language and save to your desktop.
  • Close any programs you may have running - especially your web browser.
  • Go to Start > Control Panel double-click on Add/Remove programs and remove the following...
    • Java 2 Runtime Environment, SE v1.4.2
  • Reboot your computer once all Java components are removed.
  • Then from your desktop double-click on jre-6-windows-i586.exe to install the newest version.
4. Your version of Adobe Reader is outdated and is a security risk.

Click Start > Run > type in appwiz.cpl and hit enter. From the list uninstall the following, if present:

Adobe Reader 6.0.1
Adobe Acrobat - Reader 6.0.2 Update
Adobe Acrobat and Reader 6.0.3 Update


Then, go here to download the latest version of Adobe Reader.

5. Please do an online scan with Panda ActiveScan

- Once you are on the Panda site, click the Scan your PC button
- A new window will open...click the Check Now button
- Enter your Country
- Enter your State/Province
- Enter your e-mail address and click send
- Select either Home User or Company
- Click the big Scan Now button
- If it wants to install an ActiveX component allow it
- It will start downloading the files it requires for the scan (Note: It may take a couple of minutes)
- When download is complete, click on Local Disks to start the scan
- When the scan completes, if anything malicious is detected, click the See Report button, then Save Report and save it to a convenient location.

Post the contents of the Panda scan report, along with a new HijackThis Log

Hi Paul! Log is looking good.

Please do the following...

You should print or save a copy of the following instructions as the Internet will not be available once in Safe Mode.

1. Make sure you can view hidden files and folders:
  • Click Start.
  • Open My Computer.
  • Select the Tools menu and click Folder Options.
  • Select the View Tab.
  • Under the Hidden files and folders heading select Show hidden files and folders.
  • Uncheck the Hide protected operating system files (recommended) option.
  • Click Yes to confirm.
  • Click OK.
2. Reboot your computer in Safe Mode.
  • If the computer is running, shut down Windows, and then turn off the power.
  • Wait 30 seconds, and then turn the computer on.
  • Start tapping the F8 key. The Windows Advanced Options Menu appears. If you begin tapping the F8 key too soon, some computers display a "keyboard error" message. To resolve this, restart the computer and try again.
  • Ensure that the Safe Mode option is selected.
  • Press Enter. The computer then begins to start in Safe mode.
  • Login on your usual account.
3. Once in Safe Mode, find and delete the following Files in RED, if found:

C:\WINDOWS\Downloaded Program Files\UDC6_0001_D10M2905NetInstaller.exe
C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM32\bmlqgjha.exe
C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM32\dbmfuxgx.dll
C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM32\dhxdjoox.dll
C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM32\guvceaam.dll
C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM32\hfwlxmbr.dll
C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM32\hpcjwgvy.dll
C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM32\kpvtkgsf.dll
C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM32\meqkimmg.dll
C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM32\nmworoda.dll
C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM32\pyhitcac.dll
C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM32\tbyoogci.dll
C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM32\vbyrwlbh.dll
C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM32\wdxwpshy.exe
C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM32\yohjmbhf.dll
C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM32\ypsljeav.dll

4. Reboot back into Normal Mode and post a new HijackThis log.

Let me know how the computer is. Also, do you have a Firewall on the computer?

I deleted all of the files, but I could not find the file in the Dowloaded program files folder.

The computer seems to be good so far. And I believe I do have a Firewall up, though I can not remember if it is up in the Trend Micro Antivirus, or if it is in windows defender.

Oh, I forgot to ask, should I Re-check the Hide protected operating system files (recommended) option?

Hi Paul,

Run HijackThis and click on Open the Misc Tools section.
Click on Delete a file on reboot...
Copy and paste the following into the "File name:" text box and then click Open:

C:\WINDOWS\Downloaded Program Files\UDC6_0001_D10M2905NetInstaller.exe

When you are asked "Do you want to restart your computer now?", click OK.

Your PC MUST reboot to delete the file!


Your HijackThis log is clean. :)

Oh, I forgot to ask, should I Re-check the Hide protected operating system files (recommended) option?

Yes!

Regarding a Firewall - It looks like you only have Trend Micro Anti-Virus, which has no Firewall since it is not a suite that includes a Firewall. Windows Defender does not have a Firewall, unless you meant Windows Firewall?

To check if Windows Firewall is enabled, do the following...

Click Start > Control Panel > Windows Firewall

If it disabled, please enable it immediately. You can use Windows Firewall, but be aware that is only monitors incoming traffic and not outgoing like a software Firewall wil do.

ok, I deleted the file on reboot, re-checked the "Hide protected operating system files (recommended)" and my firewall on windows evidently was already up.

Should I post a new Hijack This log?

Excellent! :thumbup:

Here are some tips for a clean and secure computer.

For XP users.
It's a good idea to Flush your System Restore points after ridding yourself of malware. You can clean this by doing the following:

  • Click Start | Help and Support | Undo changes to your computer with System Restore.
  • Click Create A Restore Point then click Next. Give it a name it and then click Create, then Close.
  • Close the Help and Support Center box.
  • Click Start | Run and type Cleanmgr
  • Select (C: ) then click OK.
  • Click the More Options tab.
  • Click Clean Up in the System Restore Section.
This will remove all previous restore points except the newly created one.

Make your Internet Explorer more secure
  1. From within Internet Explorer click on the Tools menu and then click on Options.
  2. Click on the Security tab
  3. Click the Internet icon so it becomes highlighted.
  4. Click on Default Level and click OK
  5. Click on the Custom Level button.
    • Change the Download signed ActiveX controls to Prompt
    • Change the Download unsigned ActiveX controls to Disable
    • Change the Initialise and script ActiveX controls not marked as safe to Disable
    • Change the Installation of desktop items to Prompt
    • Change the Launching programs and files in an IFRAME to Prompt
    • Change the Navigate sub-frames across different domains to Prompt
    • Internet Explorer 7 users: Check all other items and make sure that they meet the (recommended) setting when applies.
    • When all these settings have been made, click on the OK button.
    • If it prompts you as to whether or not you want to save the
    settings, press the Yes button.
  6. Next press the Apply button and then the OK to exit the Internet Properties page.
Keep your Sun Java up to date

The most current version of Sun Java is: Java Runtime Environment Version 6.0
http://java.sun.com/javase/downloads/index.jsp

  • Scroll down to where it says "Java Runtime Environment (JRE) 6".
  • Click the "Download" button to the right.
  • Check the box that says: "Accept License Agreement".
  • The page will refresh.
  • Click on the link to download Windows Offline Installation with or without Multi-language and save to your desktop.
  • Close any programs you may have running - especially your web browser.
  • Go to Start > Control Panel double-click on Add/Remove programs and remove all older versions of Java.
  • Check any item with Java Runtime Environment (JRE or J2SE) in the name.
  • Click the Remove or Change/Remove button.
  • Repeat as many times as necessary to remove each Java versions.
  • Reboot your computer once all Java components are removed.
  • Then from your desktop double-click on jre-6-windows-i586.exe to install the newest version.
And in the future, remember to remove older versions of Java when you update to a newer version to avoid exploitation of older versions left on your system.

Free programs that may help you in keeping the PC clean

  • SpywareBlaster
    SpywareBlaster will add a large list of programs and sites into your Internet Explorer settings that will protect you from running and downloading known malicious programs.

  • SpywareGuard
    It provides a degree of real-time protection solution against spyware that is a great addition to SpywareBlaster's protection method.

And you can easily have an anti-virus program running alongside SpywareGuard. It also features Download Protection and Browser Hijacking Protection.
    You can download SpywareGuard here
    A tutorial can be found here
  • IE-SPYAD
    IE-SPYAD puts over 5000 sites in your restricted zone, so you'll be protected when you visit innocent-looking sites that aren't actually innocent at all. It basically prevents any downloads, cookies, scripts from the sites listed, although you will still be able to connect to the sites.
    You can download IE-SPYAD here
    A tutorial can be found here
  • Hosts File
    A Hosts file replaces your current HOSTS file with one containing well known ad, spyware sites etc. Basically, this prevents your coputer from connecting to those sites by redirecting them to 127.0.0.1 which is your local computer.
    A tutorial can be found here
    • MVPS Hosts File
      You can download the MVPS Hosts File here
      Furthermore the website contains useful tips and links to other resources and utilities.
    • Bluetack's Hosts File and Hosts Manager

      Download Bluetack's Hosts file here
      Download Bluetack's HostsManager here
Free Spyware Detection and Removal Programs

WinPatrol FAQ

SiteHound by Firetrust

Firetrust introduces the SiteHound Toolbar - the safe way to browse the Internet. With SiteHound, when you browse the Internet, you're shown a warning page every time you go to a site which is a known scam, potentially loads viruses or spyware on to your computer, has questionable content or anything you would not consider reasonable. You are shown a warning page with information about that site. From there you can choose to enter the site or go back. SiteHound is a free add-on to Internet Explorer. (Users of Firefox - a version for you is coming soon.) SiteHound's comprehensive database gathers the knowledge from other users and respected experts from the online security community to tell you which sites are real and which are bogus.

SiteHound will alert you when you enter a site which is known to contain:
  • Fraudulent claims or scams
  • Offensive material
  • Security vulnerabilities
  • Spyware or Adware
  • Spam related material
  • or other content deemed to be unsafe

Specifically, SiteHound blocks these categories:

• Adult • Spyware • Spam Advertising • Phishing • Possible scam or fraud • Misleading or False Advertising
• Pharming • Rogue or Suspect Product • Adware • Malware or Virus

System Requirements:
Internet Explorer 5.5+ and Windows 95/98/NT 4/ME/2000/XP

Product Info & Download: SiteHound Toolbar

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://forum.malwareremoval.com/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.
