:-| Norton found this download trojan 11 times on my laptop and can't clean it even on safe mode... When I set up our new broadband connection at work I was horrified to get a porn links page popup instead of the ISP's home page... I've never gone to any porn sites or music download sites at work so i dunno where it came ffrom...

I'd appreciate any help you guys can offer. You've saved my posterior in the past with great patience and good humour, so can you help out again, please?

Go raibh maith agat!

There is some improvement... Ithink that whatever was opening the porn links page can't find it any more...

Anyway, good luck with that log and thanks for your help...

Slan abhaile agus adh mor ort!

I know you just Love these HJT logs so here goes...

Oh yes, I love em ;).

Ok, lets get started, first I will let you know that your Internet explorer is out of date. You can run Windows Update to fix this.

Next lets boot into safe mode, and configure windows to show hidden files/folders. to do that the the following.


1 Click the Start Button

2 In the Start menu click Control Panel

3 In the Control panel Window click the Folder Options Icon

4 The folder Options Window will now Open

5 Click the View Tab

6 In the view tab window look down the list for a section marked Hidden Files and Folders

7 Enable the option Show Hidden Files and Folders by left clicking the radio button on the

left of the option with your mouse. Then uncheck Hide protected operating system files.

CLick yes to the dialog.

8 Press the Apply button

9 On the next screen press OK to exit

10 You should now be able to view the hidden files and folders.

------------------------

1. If the computer is running, shut down Windows, and then turn off the power
2. Wait 30 seconds, and then turn the computer on.
3. When you see the black-and-white Starting Windows bar at the bottom of the screen, start

tapping the F8 key. The Windows 2000 Advanced Options Menu appears.
4. Ensure that the Safe mode option is selected. In most cases, it is the first item in the

list and is selected by default.
5. Press Enter. The computer then begins to start in Safe mode.

When in safe mode, run HJT again, and check the following items.

C:\Program Files\2search\2search.dll

C:\WINDOWS\DH.dll

C:\windows\keyboard4.exe

C:\windows\newname4.exe

C:\Program Files\2search\main.exe

Some files may not be there if the programs were in the Add/Remove programs list.

Empty the recycle bin

---------------------------------------------------

Reboot normally

Then please download ewido - www.ewido.net - Install. Update. Scan. Remove anything it finds.

----------------------------------------------------

Then please post a new HJT log, and the ewido log.


Thanks

Thanks Tayspen!

I got as far as "empty recycle bin" tonight as I can only access the web by wireless, this evening, which i don't have on the work laptop...

I really appreciate you going through the HJT log, I have only the vaguest inkling of what a pain in the arse it must be... ;)

Anyway, couple of things happenned...

On running HJT in safe mode it said
"HJT cannot repair 010 Winsock LSP entries. You should use LSPFix for thatwhich is available from http://www.cexx.org/lspfix.htm

If the 010 item belongs to webhancer, new.net or commonname, SpybotS&D can remove it automatically..."


Also I couldn't find whagent.exe in Webhancer/programs... "whinstaller.exe"was there along with "webhdll.dll" (labelled 3.8.1.0 webHancer Winsock2 SPI)

2search.dll was not to be found either though there was "get.exe" and "uninstall.exe"

These all looked pretty suss but I didn't delete them just in case.

I also found a whole bunch of suspicious stuff:

drsmartload2.dat
keyboard41.dat
installer.exe
keyboard21.dat
newname.dat
keyboard11.dat
gimmegames9.exe
gimmegames1.dat

There was more stuff I found the other day before contacting International Rescue @ Daniweb (wierd folders called lots of numbers and letters full of web pages and jpegs for sites about celebrities that I never visited) I moved them all to a folder in My Documents as a kind of quarantine.

Anyway, I'll do the ewido scan when I get a chance, Thanks again

Go Raibh maith agat agus adh mor ort!

Ok, the ewido scan will knock more of it out :). Go ahead and do what it said as far as running this - http://www.cexx.org/lspfix.htm - and get spybot S & D (Link in my sig). Then be sure to post the log of ewido, and a new HJT log :).

Ay up, Tayspen... I managed to work out a way of getting ewido onto the other laptop without using the net...

Wow! ewido really kicks! It asked if I wasnted to delete a couple of things that had nasties embedded in them that it couldn't clean on their own. I told it "what the hell wipe em out..."

here's the log:

Thanks Tayspen, do your stuff! Really appreciated...

Slan!

I just downloaded the lspfix but I'm not really sure what I'm doing, I need sleep now so I'll look at it tomorrow...

Slan lat!

Oh yea. ewido is a very nice program. To be perfectly honest with you I think norotn is a waste of money. To me your paying for something when there are ather programs that do a better job and are free (Ewido). Not to mention norton is a huge resource hog. If you want you should look into:

AVG Free Anti Virus (Free) - http://free.grisoft.com/doc/1

Its good.

Anyway on to the HJT log!

Looks alot cleaner. I hope its functioning better? THere still are a few items to clean up. Run HJT and scan, place a check next to these.

Ay up, tayspen!

Sorry its been a while... been a mad couple of days...

Anyway, C\WINDOWS\services.exe is gone or I couldn't find it anyway :)

HJT couldn't find the windows updater either, I dunno if this is a good or a bad thing...

I scanned again with ewido and it found a few more things here's the log:

Erm , that's it! There still looks like there's one or two oddities in there to my untrained but terminally suspicious eye...

Looks like we're giving it a bit of a kicking though!

Anyway thanks for all your help, its over to you now I s'pose. I hope you don't see HJT logs when you close your eyes at night!

Sin e! Go raibh mile maith agat agus slan!

Sorry, must have missed your reply ;).

But, good news, your log is clean :).

You should really run windows update, www.windowsupdate.com - to update your computer. As always, that is optional though.
