Hi
I am quite fed up with spyware , this time : http://prosearching.com/searchbar.html
(I´d wish to have a valid email to call a bit of names to such [Moderator's edit: Please keep it clean, we ask that our members not use profanity in these forums- thanks]


is there any safe tutorial on how to get rid of IE hijacking (cwshredder has got 2 links where there are explanations on how to uninstall java virtual machine and others items which allow hijacking )

In this meantime , perhaps any of you could assist me to clear my system out of this rubbish (what the h e l l is that : C:\ARQUIVOS DE PROGRAMAS\MIX MAIL LOVE\POLLBAIT.EXE)


Here you´ve got the Logfile :

I'm moving this to our one-day old Security forum for all your hijacking needs

Hi. Close all (browser) windows & have HJT fix these entries by placing a check in the appropriate box=

O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [AutoLoaderEnvoloAutoUpdater] "C:\WINDOWS\TEMP\~COMPOUNDINST0\AUTO_UPDATE_LOADER.EXE"

Reboot into safe mode following the instructions here & navigate to & delete

C:\ARQUIVOS DE PROGRAMAS\SYSAI< this one
C:\ARQUIVOS DE PROGRAMAS\SOFTWARE 2 LONG< this one
C:\WINDOWS\TEMP< entire contents of folder

Reboot normally & you should be good.

Also remove this with hijack this & remove the folder whilst in safe mode too.

O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [Flaw Dog] C:\ARQUIV~1\MIXMAI~1\Pollbait.exe

C:\ARQUIV~1\MIXMAI~1< this one in safe mode.

A few tips to stay relatively clean.

Download & instal Adaware from here
& update it B4 scanning.
In settings under 'scanning,' have it set to
'scan within archives,'
'scan active processes,'
'scan registry,'
'deepscan registry'
'scan my IE Favourites for banned URL's,'
'scan my host's file.'
Also in tweaks under 'cleaning engine' set it to 'Automatically try to unregister objects prior to deletion.'
When the scan is finished select 'next.'
Remove what it finds by placing a check in the box to the left of the object. Reboot

Download & instal Spybot S&D from here Update it B4 scanning. Go into settings & have it check for Beta releases also & download if available.
After the scan is complete, have spybot fix everything marked RED.
On the page that first opens when you start Spybot there is an option to immunise, you should do this. In the immunise section there is also a link to download Spywareblaster. Download that & you can keep it updated by selecting the same link that you use to download it. Reboot
