Re: SpySheriff and aboutblank

You've definitely got "unwanted guests", but just so that we don't repeat removal suggestions that you've already attempted, can you please tell us what proceedures and/or utilities you've tried so far? Thanks.

Re: SpySheriff and aboutblank

So far I have tried...
Ran killbox and removed a few files(havent seen spysherrif in 3 days)Following other suggestions from another fourm.Also ran HJT
and removed files suggested to other people when i found them.

Tried to follow other peoples directions to remove about:blank
but cant D/Load any programs they wanted them to D/load.

I was lucky enough to register here to as for help.
Please help!!! remember I cant download most programs

Also ran "cleanup" a few times. Let me know if you need a freash HJT log. thanks James

Re: SpySheriff and aboutblank

Can you download any utilities at all?

If so, please perform as many of the procedures I outlined in my first post in this thread as possible:

We can use HijackThis to clean out a lot of your infections if it's absolutely necessary, but given the number of different "nasties" you have, it would be an evil process.

Re: SpySheriff and aboutblank

sorry for the delay. It takes me 100 0r 200 trys just to get here.

I have: spyblaster
HJT
Killbox
Cleanup
Microsoft Antispyware
Aboutbuster
I have tried many times going through your links with no success.I cant D/L
anything with IE or MSN browsers.
It doesnt sound easy through HJT but may be my only choice.

Unless you can help get a few probs off so I can D/l your stuff?

Still trying to d/l anything but nothing yet.

Re: SpySheriff and aboutblank

Is downloading the utilities on another computer and burning them to CD a possibility? That would be a good way to get them installed on to the infected machine.

If not, let me know ASAP and we'll have a whack at things with HJT and some manual surgery.

Re: SpySheriff and aboutblank

OK. I had started a response dealing with last log you posted, but had to log off for a few hours before I could finish. I'll wait until you post the new log, as its contents may differ from the last log.
