Hi.

My computer has been running fine since a little malware incident a few months back. This changed though as I briefly installed "Fruity Loops" (latest version) just to try it out for a bit. I uninstalled it again a short time thereafter and the next time I restarted my computer, Ad-Watch gave me the following message on Windows start:

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
Warning! 07:24:47

An attempt to alter a protected object has been detected.
(Attempt to change a registry value)

Root: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE
Key: SOFTWARE\Classes\regfile\shell\open\command
Value:
Data: "regedit.exe" "%1"
New Data: regedit.exe "%1"
- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

Spybot S&D also alerted me on the same change.
It doesn't matter whether I chose to accept this change or deny it, the same "warning" still comes up after every single reboot.
I know it doesn't look like much of a "change", but still it's pretty annoying to be notified about every time windows starts.
I have a HJT log included last in this post.

I'm running Windows XP Pro (Swedish) with SP2
I currently have Ad-Aware (with Ad-Watch) running, as well as Spybot S&D and Norton Antivirus 2003 (all with updated definitions etc.)

Thanks for any help you might be able to give me !

Incoming,

Hello! and welcome to the MWR forums.

-Print this off so you can follow it

Be sure to look this solution over before you begin.

I dont see much in your HJT Log, lets remove whats there first then tackle the issue abvove

===============

We'll need to unload Spybot's Teatimer before we begin. To do this, right-click on the icon in the quick launch toolbar at the bottom on the screen, then select "Exit".

===============

We'll need to disable AdAware's AdWatch, since it might interfere with other program(s) we might be using to 'clean' off your system; you can re-enable it after we're done. To disable this feature, run Run AdAware SE, then:

1. Click "AdWatch".
2. Click "Tools and Preferences".

(Look at the bottom of the window you will see two options...)


3. Uncheck these options:

Active: This will turn Ad-Watch On\Off without closing it
Automatic: Suspicious activity will be blocked automatically


Remember to re-enable this feature once your system is clean.

===============

If you haven't ran HouseCall lately, let's go back to www.trendmicro.com, download the latest definitions, and run it.

===============


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


O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [UserFaultCheck] %systemroot%\system32\dumprep 0 -u

O16 - DPF: {D1E7CBDA-E60E-4970-A01C-37301EF7BF98} (Measurement Service Client v.3.4) - http://ccon.futuremark.com/global/msc34.cab


Now, with all windows closed except HiJackThis, click "Fix checked".

Then, as an added precaution, Go to Start > Run and type: cleanmgr and then click OK. Make sure the boxes for these are checked:
Temporary Files
Temporary Internet Files
Recycle Bin

===============

Post back a new log, and let me know how everything goes.
