RUNDLL32.EXE is not responding
 |
I hope someone can help me!
Everytime I log off / shut down my pc (Windows XP) a message pops up saying Rundll32.exe is not responding. I have to click "end task" to shut down. Can anyone help me fix this problem? I just deleted Trojan.Popdis from my pc last week (well I hope I deleted it) and when I run Norton anti-virus it does not find any infected files. Could there be some sort of a virus that Norton anti-virus cannot find causing the rundll.exe problem?
Thanks,
Laura

Simply deleting things does not necessarily remove trace of them. Trojans generally make other system changes once they've gotten onto your system. For full removal information about Trojan.popdis, follow the instructions in this article:

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.'
In 'tweaks' under 'scanning engine' set it to 'unload recognised processes during scanning.'
Also in 'tweaks' under 'cleaning engine' set it to 'Automatically try to unregister objects prior to deletion' & 'let Windows remove files in use at next reboot.'
Select 'activate in-depth scan' before starting scan.
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
Download HijackThis from here & unzip it into it's own, permanent folder, (Not a temporary folder or the desktop & not directly on your hard drive). Start HJT & with all browser windows closed, press the scan button. When the scan is finished the scan button will change to save. Save the log to a text file, copy the entire contents of the text file & paste it into the body of your post. DO NOT FIX ANYTHING YET. Most of what is there is harmless & even necessary to the running of your system.

Hi guys, thank for replying
Catweazle - I have already used the removal instructions at www. securityresponse.symantec.co...jan.popdis.html and I still have the rundll32.exe problem.
crunchie - I downloaded Adaware and followed your instructions. From the scan 219 files were found. I checked them all to remove but a message poped up saying
"n-CASELib.dll was not found. Re-installing may fix this problem" When I clicked ok the following message poped up "Some objects could not be removed. Try closing all browser windows prior to the removal. If this does not help, reboot and run Ad-aware again. C:\windows\system32\bridge.dll Do you want to let Ad-aware remove them after the next reboot. I clicked Ok.
I did not go any further than this as I dont have a clue what to do now. Should I re-install n-CASELib.dll (I do not know how I got this in the first place or what it is)?
Thanks,
Laura.

No. From here I would now download & install hijackthis as per my above instructions, making sure to unzip it into a folder that you create beforehand. We can sort it out from there I reckon.

Hi crunchie,
On start up the following message now appears "Error loading C:\WINDOWS\system32\bridge.dll The specified file module could not be found.
When you say download and install hijackthis unzip it into its own permanent folder, (Not a temporary folder or the desktop & not directly on to the hard drive). Where will I put it and how will I unzip it? Sorry for asking basic questions but I have not got a clue when it comes to things like this.
Thanks for all you help and patience,
Laura.

Click My Computer, then C:\
In the menu bar, File->New->Folder.
That will create a folder named New Folder, which you can rename to "HJT" or "HijackThis". Now you have C:\HJT\ folder. Put your HijackThis.exe there, and double click to run it.

Hi crunchie,
The original problem with "RUNDLL32.EXE is not responding" when I shut down is not happening anymore since I ran the Ad-aware but it has been replaced by another problem. When I start up my pc a message saying "Error loading C:\WINDOWS\System32\bridge.dll The specified module could not be found" is appearing. I hope you can see the problem in my log and help fix it

Thanks a million,

I see a few things:
- wuauclt.exe: on Windows ME this can be a valid system file, but on other version of Windows it's prbably indicative of a trojan infection. Get the latest virus definitions for your anti-virus program and do a full system scan. More info on the trojan here:
http://securityresponse.symantec.com...kdoor.clt.html
- wcmdmgrl.exe: this is a component of the Wild Tangent spyware. More info and removal instructions here:
http://www.pestpatrol.com/PestInfo/w/wildtangent.asp
- O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [RunDLL] rundll32.exe "C:\WINDOWS\System32\bridge.dll",Load: this is responsible for your bridge.dll error message; have HJT fix that entry.
That's probably not all, but I don't have time to look in to it further right now. Hopefully someone else will come along soon and give you a hand.
Did you also run SpyBot as crunchie suggested? If not, do so and then post a fresh HJT log; SpyBot might catch something that Ad Aware missed.

Please do not contact me by email or PM for help. We're all volunteers here, and only have so much free time to dedicate to our efforts.
However, if I've been working on a thread with you already, and seem to have "forgotten" your thread, please do send me a message. I try not to let things slip through the cracks, but it does happen sometimes.

Hijack this is in a temp folder, please follow the instructions already given above. Backups will not be made in a Temp folder, so if something goes wrong, you cannot restore it.
Unzip HJT into it's own permanent folder before doing anything in order for it to create backups. (Not a temporary folder or the desktop & not directly on your hard drive). Close all (browser) windows & rescan with hijackthis. When the scan is finished place a check in the box to the left of the following entries & click 'fix checked' :
O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [websx] C:\Program Files\websx\int114844.exe -auto
O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [wcmdmgr] C:\WINDOWS\wt\updater\wcmdmgrl.exe -launch
O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [iTunesHelper] C:\Program Files\iTunes\iTunesHelper.exe
O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [slmss] C:\Program Files\Common Files\slmss\slmss.exe
O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [RunDLL] rundll32.exe "C:\WINDOWS\System32\bridge.dll",Load
O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [SQInstaller] SQInstaller.exe
