Windows Desktop gone - Am I infected ?

Unread postby borisbathtime » April 17th, 2008, 9:44 am

Hi - when I start up my computer it goes through to my desktop Ok but I have nothing but my wallpaper and the mouse pointer. Have tried system restore but that doesnt cure it. Only way to see a useable desktop is in safe mode. Am running a full scan with adaware at the moment and will then run similar with Avast.
Anyone got further suggestions.
Thanks
Tony

Please note that all instructions given are customised for this computer only, the tools used may cause damage if used on a computer with different infections.

If you think you have similar problems, please post a log in the HJT forum and wait for help.


Unless informed of in advance, failure to post replies within 5 days will result in this thread being closed.

Hello and welcome to the forums

My name is Katana and I will be helping you to remove any infection(s) that you may have.

Please observe these rules while we work:
1. If you don't know, stop and ask! Don't keep going on.
2. Please reply to this thread. Do not start a new topic.
3. Please continue to respond until I give you the "All Clear"
(Just because you can't see a problem doesn't mean it isn't there)

If you can do those three things, everything should go smoothly :D

Thank you for your reply. Avast has picked up on a Trojan that I have deleted from my system and things seem to be back to normal. So for the time being I will end this thread - however I have had malware infections in the past that seemingly were deleted but left traces that affected my computer so forgive me if I have to return at a later date.
Your site is fantastic.

Re: Windows Desktop gone - Am I infected ?

Apart from the following points, your log looks fine :)


IMPORTANT I notice there are signs of one or more P2P (Person to Person) File Sharing Programs on your computer.

BitComet 0.95
BitTorrent 4.24.0
LimeWire
LimeWire PRO 4.12.6


I'd like you to read the Guidelines for P2P Programs where we explain why it's not a good idea to have them.

Also available here.

My recommendation is you go to Control Panel > Add/Remove Programs and uninstall the programs listed above (in red).



Your Java and Adobe is out of date.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 and Adobe components and update.

Updating Java:
  • Download the latest version of Java Runtime Environment (JRE) 6u6 from http://java.sun.com/javase/downloads/index.jsp
  • Scroll down to where it says "The J2SE Runtime Environment (JRE) allows end-users to run Java applications".
  • 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.

Update Adobe Acrobat Reader
  • Please go to this link Adobe Acrobat Reader Download Link
  • Cllick Download
  • On the right Untick Adobe Phototshop Album Starter Edition if you do not wish to include this in the installation.
  • Click the Continue button
  • Click Run, and click Run again
  • Next click the Install Now button and follow the on screen prompts

Now close all windows, including your browser.
Double click on the Java installation that you downloaded and follow the prompts.

Remove Programs
Now click Start---Control Panel. Double click Add or Remove Programs. If any of the following programs are listed there,
click on the program to highlight it, and click on remove.
  • Adobe Reader 7.0.9
    Java(TM) 6 Update 4
Now close the Control Panel.

Reboot your machine.
