That all looks fine.

Do you still have your Windows disc?

How's the PC running? Everything looks OK.

If it's still not fixed I'll have a chat with the other experts to see if they have any suggestions.

My PC runs just fine, I have the factory reinstallation DVD. I do not want to wipe out my computer and start over if that is where you are heading. I asked if you thought it could be in the registry as perhaps a search command has been overwritten. Have you ruled that out? thanx

Don't worry - I was absolutely not heading there ;)

Have you ruled that out?
Not yet entirely. Are you still getting redirects? If so, could you please post the full URL to which you are being redirected?

Also re-run RSIT and post the log. You won't get info.txt this time.

Re: I have something wrong DNS Advantage -search

Unread postby jeffs55 » March 26th, 2009, 8:56 am

I received this link from the DNS site that my searches end up at. It is allegedly instructions on how to opt out of this problem. Obviously they are aware of it, probably because they created it! I tried following the instructions and ended up with no search at all! My computer would not open any page. IE would not open.

I had just prepared a fix for you and now you say IE won't open.... :(

Let's try things the easy way first.
You have Windows Defender running
This is good as Windows Defender protects you from many malicious changes to your registry. However, Windows Defender is a computer program, which has no way of distinguishing between good or malicous intentions; this means it might hinder the modifications I need to make to your system.

This means that Windows Defender will need to be disabled until you have been cleaned of malware.

  1. Double-click on the Windows Defender icon in your system tray. It looks like this: Image
  2. Click Tools at the top of the window.
  3. Click Options (under the heading Settings)
  4. Uncheck Automatically scan my computer (recommended) under Automatic scanning
  5. Uncheck Use real-time protection (recommended) under Real-time protection options
  6. Click Save to save your settings.

When I give you the all-clear post, remember to reenable it!

Now uninstall Internet Explorer through Add/Remove programs.

Download and install Internet Explorer again:
Version 7: http://www.microsoft.com/windows/produc ... fault.mspx
Brand new Version 8: http://www.microsoft.com/windows/intern ... fault.aspx

So you did a system restore and IE is working now?
I presume the redirects are back?

I did the system restore before I ever posted on this site. I had the redirects before and after the system restore. I also chose a restore point well before the redirects occured. Yes, I still have the redirects. Did you examine the instructions from DNS? Either I did them wrong or they do not work.

I've conferred with some fellow malware experts, and we have concluded that the following seem the best things we can try:

1. Delete this folder: C:\Program Files\Coupons

2. Click Start>Run and copy and paste this:
Code: Select all
notepad \windows\system32\drivers\etc\hosts

A file will open, copy and paste the contents into your next post.
If the file's contents are overly large, please only copy and paste the first 20 or so lines after '127.0.0.1 localhost'.

3. I would like you to try to reset your router or modem (whichever is applicable). Please consult the manual which came with the product for information on how to do so.
Reboot your computer after performing this step.

4. Disable Windows Defender as per the instructions I gave you a few posts ago if you haven't disabled it already.

5. Now please opt-out of DNSadvantage as you did before. If something does not look right, please write down the actions you're taking.

6. If Internet Explorer is not working after having completed the opt-out-process, please reinstall it as per the instructions I gave you a few posts ago.

I am a little confused. In the above post you are telling me to first UNinstall IE through add remove programs then you say download IE 7 or IE 8. I cannot download anything if I cannot get on the internet due to deletion of my currently running IE &, can I? Further, I went to the link for IE7 and there is not a download link there as the site says that IE 7 is already on my computer. I did download and save IE 8 to my desktop. I might not want to upgrade to IE 8 so I want to have IE 7 standing by. Another thing, there is not a Windows Defender icon in my system tray. I am able to go to
programs
Windows Defender
tools
and see the option there to uncheck the items you mentioned
I have deleted the coupons file and know how to reboot my modem.
The opt out process supplied by DNS was a multi step procedure which resulted in my being unable to access the internet. The reason was that the IP addresses were changed to something that was not a ping to a search server? I do not know enough computer language to use the correct words. I have an IP and so do all Gods children. There was a setting for an IP for my computer to go to which I was told to change. Upo peforming that change the new IP was a dead end. There was nothing there so IE would not open. If you would go to this link and follow the steps you will see what I mean.

I await further instructions.thanx

When you uninstalled IE it should have reverted to the super-old IE version 6 which came with your Windows installation. It's impossible to truly uninstall IE, it's too deeply integrated into Windows.

Click Start>Run and enter iexplore
click OK and tell me what happens.

I did review the steps and the only thing I see is that they change your DNS servers to use something different from DNSadvantage. I don't see instructions for changing your IP address.

Could you please perform step #1 and post the contents of the c:\windows\system32\drivers\etc\hosts file?

Post:
- what happened when you clicked start>run and entered iexplore
- contents of the hosts file

I might be a couple of days before I can get to this. I am sure you will understand that I need to have uninterrupted time available. So, you have no doubt that I will still be able to go online even after I UNinstall IE? This sure scares me. I am going to create a restore point before I do any of this. :?

That is good practice and okay to do.

I understand your situation, take as much time as you need.

The only thing I am sure of regarding IE is that it is impossible to remove. I cannot ensure that removing IE will get you back online, because, as you're already aware, something is awry with your DNS settings.

If you have a cd-burner in your computer and a fast internet connection you may want to download Ubuntu: http://www.ubuntu.com
Ubuntu is a linux distribution, which is an operating system which can run right off the CD. I understand your Windows is now not exactly useable, so if you need the internet but can't use Windows all you'd need to do is put the Ubuntu CD in the tray, reboot, and then you can use the internet from within Linux.
One warning: not for novice users, as you'll have to set up the internet connection yourself.

That was the positive thing of Ubuntu. The negative thing is that it's a 700MB download.

Just let me know when you're ready to continue. I'll be waiting for you.
