Hi everyone. The problem is as above, I open internet explorer, expecting my homepage of google.com to open, but it is redirected, via jupk.com, to various porn search sites. I gather the accepted protocol is to run hijackthis so here is the logfile...

I've run fixwareout, but the log didn't show anything, i.e. nothing deleted etc. Thanking you in advance for any help at all

Matt

Quick fix is try switching to firefox 2.0,it may not have the same vulnerability to you're re-directer.

If a full scan shows nothing I'd just nuke the disk and start from scratch,making sure windows and virusscan are up to date first of course

The IP addresses listed in the above log entries point to rogue DNS servers, which are probably responsible for the redirect. The IP addresses are added by the [search]Wareout[/search] parasite.

1. Run another HijackThis scan, put a check in the boxes to the left of the above entries, and then click the "Fix checked" button. Close HijackThis after that.

2. Click on the "Run..." option under your Start menu, type "CMD" (omit the quotes) in the resulting "Open:" window, and hit OK. This will open a DOS window.
* At the DOS prompt, type the following command and then hit Enter:

ipconfig /flushdns

* Close the DOS window after the command completes.

3. Reboot the computer. If your computer is set to automatically obtain it's network configuration info via DHCP, you should be OK. If you have manually configured your network settings, you will have go back into your network card's TCP/IP properties and re-enter the correct DNS server IP addresses (as supplied by your Internet service provider).

Have you tried scanning in safemode and changing your default DNS settings? More info on this Jupk.com DNS settings

Have you tried scanning in safemode and changing your default DNS settings?

Unfortunately, restoring the correct DNS server entries and/or switching web browsers may resolve the redirection problem, but it does nothing to remove the infection itself.

Once the bogus DNS server IPs have been fixed, the system should be scanned for malware using one of the online scans below and/or a good anti-spyware program such as AVG Anti-Spyware.

Online Scanners:

BitDefender Free Online Virus Scan
http://www.bitdefender.com/scan/licence.php
Make sure you tick AutoClean under Scan Options.

Panda ActiveScan
http://www.pandasoftware.com/actives..._principal.htm
Make sure you tick Disinfect automatically under Scan Options.

Housecall at TrendMicro
http://housecall60.trendmicro.com/en...rp.asp?id=scan
Make sure you tick Auto Clean.

eTrust Antivirus Web Scanner
http://www3.ca.com/securityadvisor/virusinfo/scan.aspx

Also run this online trojan scanner

TrojanScan

Post logs from the ones you ran along with a new hijackthis log.


AVG Anti-Spyware:

* Download the free version of AVG Anti-Spyware (formerly ewido). Save the installer file to your desktop or any convenient folder.

* Run the installer, accepting the default options. Run the program once installed, click on the Update icon at the top of the main AVG window, and allow the program to download the most current components.

* Close AVG once the updates have been downloaded.

* Reboot into Safe Mode (you get to the safe mode boot option by hitting the F8 key as your computer is starting up).

* Run AVG Anti-Spyware.

- Click on the "Scanner" icon just to the right of the Update icon. In the Scanner window, click on the "Settings" tab.
- Under "How to act?", click on "Recommended actions" and choose "Delete" from the resulting menu.
- All boxes under "How to scan" and "Possibly unwanted..." should be checked.
- Under "Reports", check "Automatically generate report after every scan".
- Under "What to scan", select "Scan every file".
- Click on the "Scan" tab, and then click on "Complete System Scan" to start scanning. It usually takes at least 40 minutes to complete a full scan.

Once the scan is complete, a window listing all infected objects (if any are found) will be displayed. Below the list of infected objects, make sure the Set all elements to: option is set to Delete and then click the Apply all actions button.

After the malicious items are deleted, you will be given the option to save the scan report; do that. The report is saved as a text file in the C:\Program Files\Grisoft\AVG Anti-Spyware 7.5\Reports folder. (The actual filename is a combination of the date and time of the scan.)

* Reboot the computer normally, open the AVG Anti-Spyware report in Windows Notepad, and Cut-N-Paste the entire contents of that report into a post in this thread. Post a new HijackThis log as well.
