Hello,
Ok now I used CWShredder and it seems to have removed it. But initially I had also deleted stuff from registry and from HijacjThis. So I am not sure if it was a combination of all.

Anyways here is my later HijackThis output please tell me if there is anything more I need to do.

Hi Apurva, welcome to DaniWeb

You're using an older version of HijackThis; I suggest you get the self-extracting version of HijackThis from here (in line 2):
http://www.malwareremoval.com/downloads.html

Then close any open browser windows, 'Scan and Save Log' with hijackthis, copy the log, and paste it here. (The newer version may find things the older one didn't)

Thanks for the quick reply.I got the latest version of HijackThis and here is the log file.

Please Advice. Thanks again for your help.

Good work. Between CWShredder and your other fixes, you've removed most of the problems.

There's still a little bit of clean-up to do though:


1. Have HijackThis fix:

R3 - Default URLSearchHook is missing
O4 - Startup: DLHelperEXE.exe
O16 - DPF: {640B39C1-D713-464F-92C3-75BD972B95EE} - http://www.sidestep.com/get/k42037/sb02a.cab
O16 - DPF: {AED98630-0251-4E83-917D-43A23D66D507} (WebHandler Class) - http://activex.microgaming.com/dlhel...7/dlhelper.cab


2. Open Windows Explorer, and in the Folder Options->View settings under the Tools menu, select "show hidden files and folders", and uncheck "Hide protected operating system files" and "Hide extentions for known file types".

Search for and delete DLHelperEXE.exe.


3. Empty your Recycle Bin, reboot, run HJT again, and post a new log.

Hi here is the latest log tell me if everything look fine.

Thanks for your help.

Apurva

Whew!
Boy am I relieved!

I was afraid that if you deleted DLHelper, I'd be TOAST! :eek:

Your log looks fine to me, are you still having any problems?

Don't give up your day job Danny

Hi,
Thanks for all your help.
Now I am facing another problem. I cannot access some websites liek Gmail.com does not open not even the login pages.
Some of my credit card and bank of america site open but when I put my login information it does not login it shows the "The page cannot be displayed" page. Same with hotmail.
But Yahoo can be logged in to.

I am guessing it is to do with some kind of authentication metod the site uses.I am using IE. I tried to restore the defaults in all security policies of IE.
Also deleted all restricted sites from the list. So there are no restricted sites.

For ex.
https://service.capitalone.com/oas/l...ed=LoginSplash
Link used to work earlier

But now when I type www.capitalone.com it open the home page but when I click on login button it says "The page cannot be displayed"


Here is the Hijack This log please help.
