Another "need help", this time from Brazil.
 

Hi, everyone.

I'm Milton, from Brazil, and I am impressed by the quality and friendlyness of your site/forum. To be honest, however, I just joined 'cause I need help, sort of desperately. Hope you don´t mind.

My browser (IE6) has been hijacked - see HiJackThis log posted below.
Panda Platinum tells me it has detected and deleted Adware/SearchExe, and I can see se.dll in the HijackThius log. But the problem won't go away.

I have been battling this for three days, failing miserably. I have found your thread 15034 and followed the instructions (by Marsupial Moderator), without success. Even tried some variations, including running Panda Platinum, Ad-Aware SE and SpyBot repeatedly under safe mode. I have actually got clean readings from all of them, before and after manually deleting all files in the user and temp folders (according to the instructions in thread 15034), just to have the bug back when rebooting normally. Where is it hiding?

A couple of other symptoms:
1) The first window I get after booting, or when I launch Windows Explorer or IE, is a Windows error message like this: Loading error. Access denied to C:\DOCUME~1\ANDRIG~1\CONFIG~1\Temp\se.dll
Even when I set the system to show hidden files, I never see that dll at that location, even under other users´ folders.

2) According to a friend, BitDefender Online Scanner could solve the problem, but I simply cannot get the ACtive-X content to be downloaded from the site, so it does not run. The same with Panda Online, even after custom setting to enable and allow everything!

3) BTW, I work with WIndows XP Pro, SP 2

Can anyone help me, please?

Thanks

JMAF

Re: Another "need help", this time from Brazil.
 

Hi and welcome Milton :).

Download CWShredder 2.15 from here.

Download\'SpSeHjfix\' to the desktop and then
right click a blank part of the desktop and select new folder, call it spfix
unzip the file into that folder.

Disconnect from the net and Close ALL OPEN PROGRAMS.
Run 'SpSeHjfix'. and click on "Start Disinfection".
When it's finished it will reboot your machine to finish the cleaning process.
The tool creates a log of the fix which will appear in the folder.

If it doesn't find any of the SE files or any hidden reinstallers it will say system clean and not go on to next stage.

Run the shredder and press the *fix,* not scan and allow it to clean the infection. Close all browser and explorer windows before hitting the fix button.

Reboot and post a fresh HJT log and the log that was created by 'SpSeHjfix'.

Re: Another "need help", this time from Brazil.
 

Thanks a lot, Crunchie!

I am a little embarrassed, though, because I did not exactly follow your advice. Just after submitting my SOS, I was not ready to quit yet. So I decided to do my homework, and browsed through the site, in search of a solution. Before I got your reply, I found a post by dlh6213 (I guess), covering the removal of about:blank, CoolWebSearch and their variants. Its cocktail worked fine, and now I see maybe it was sort of over reacting, since yours was a simpler solution.

Anyway, things seem to be back to normal, and the important thing to me is that you stood up to the spirit of your community by answering to my request. So, thank you again. Of course, I am posting below the HJT and SpSeHjfix logs, so that you can check them, just in case… ;-)

[QUOTE=crunchie]Hi and welcome Milton :).

Download CWShredder 2.15 from here.

Re: Another "need help", this time from Brazil.
 

You have some entries there that need removing. Good job you posted another log :D.

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

Go to Add/Remove programs and remove(uninstall) the following, if present:

Spyware Vanisher

The above could appear anywhere within the entry. Be careful not to remove any personal or system software.

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

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


R0 - HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main,Start Page = http://hsremove.com/done.htm
R0 - HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main,Local Page =


Now, close all instances of Internet Explorer and any other windows you have open except HiJackThis, click "Fix checked".

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

Locate and delete the following item(s), if present. Make sure you are able to view system and hidden files/ folders:

folders...

C:\spywarevanisher-free

-

Note that some of these file(s)/folder(s) may or may not be present. If present, and cannot be deleted because they're 'in use', try deleting them in "Safe Mode".

-

Reboot.

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

After rebooting, rescan with hijackthis and post back a new log. Please let me know how your pc is now.

Re: Another "need help", this time from Brazil.
 

Thanks, again! :cheesy: Here is the log. The Vanisher is still there...

The PC is running just fine. Everything seems to be working nicely. BTW, which AV software do you recommend? Also, should I change my browser to Mozzila Firefox?

Re: Another "need help", this time from Brazil.
 

Scan with hijackthis and tick the boxes next to all the following entries, then close all browser and explorer windows and hit the "Fix checked" button.

O4 - HKCU\..\Run: [Spyware Vanisher] C:\spywarevanisher-free\FreeScanner.exe -FastScan

When you have 'fix checked,' please delete this folder;

C:\spywarevanisher-free

Reboot.

==

I personally use the AV that is in my signature below. I find that it meets my needs more than adequately.

==

I would use almost any other browser than Internet Explorer, Opera being top of my list, with FireFox coming in next.

Re: Another "need help", this time from Brazil.
 

OK, thank you. Only I cannot see the Vanisher folder. Set the system to show hidden and system files, did a search on the HD, and it was not there.

After fixing, the entry does not appear anymore in the HJT log, so I guess everything is finally all right.

Thanks for all the tips. :cool:

Re: Another "need help", this time from Brazil.
 

You are welcome Milton :).

Congratulations! Your log looks clean - good work!

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

Now that your PC is clean you need to follow these easy steps to keeping it this way:

Secure your Internet Explorer by going here and following the instructions there.

Better yet, use an alternative browser! Download FireFox and give it a run. It is far more secure than Internet Explorer. Or, you can get Opera which in my opinion, is better still.

Use a firewall to help prevent your PC's control being usurped by undesireables. There is a link to a good, free firewall in my signature.

[color=blue]Install and keep updated, Ad-Aware SE, and Spybot S&D.
Run them both on a regular basis, following the manufacturer's recommendations.

Install an anti-virus. There are some good, free AV's available today. Make sure that it is updated regularly and have it scan your system often.

Check for Windows Updates. Microsoft regularly post updates for your systems safe running. Make sure to take advantage of this. Reboot when installed and return to make sure there are no others.


Clear your Temp folders.
Clear out your Temporary internet files and other temp files.
Go to Start > Settings > Control Panel >Internet Options.
Under the General tab click the Delete temporary internet files,
delete all Offline content as well. Clear out Cookies.

Also, go to Start > Find/search > Files or folders > in the named box, type: *.tmp and choose Edit > select all -> File > delete.

Empty/delete the entire contents of the C:\Windows\temp folder and C:\temp folder, if you have one. (Contents but not the folder itself.)

C:\Documents and Settings\username\Local Settings\Temp\

In order to view these files you may have to select 'show hidden files/folders.' Instructions on how to here.

Empty the Recycle Bin.

For XP users.
After something like this it is a good idea to Flush the Restore Points and start fresh.
To flush the XP system Restore Points.

Go to Start>Run and type msconfig. Press enter.

When msconfig opens, click the Launch System Restore Button.
On the next page, click the System Restore Settings link on the left.

Check the box labelled 'Turn off System restore'.

Reboot. Go back in and Turn System Restore Back on. A new Restore Point will be created.

Note that all previous restore points will be lost.

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

If you have any more problems, post back.

Happy surfing,
