Oh, and I forgot to mention, normally I'd use System Restore immediatly, but the ******* deleted all my restore points!

From now on every so days I'm going to backup my system restore files. I didn't know they were not recoverable after deletion. This sucks.

drsmartload is a spyware and ad delivery trojan , and naturally that one does not aim to give you a BSOD. Cmdservices is a pest. You may have a virus which is designed to do that, or it is unintentional from a bad bit of hacker code. Anyway run HT in safe mode from its own folder with nothing else running [apps or windows], and send the log....

Heya gerbil, and thanks for your reply mate!

Here's the HJT log!

Edit: Justg noticed I still had ZoneAlarm running...is it okay like this? I'm not overly-confident in shutting it down. But if I must, I must.

Oh, and excuse the double post, but I've lost my Windows XP CD (not lost, I know exactly where it is, it's just not accessible), so I'm wondering, do I need that EXACT CD or will any other XP CD work as a Restore/Recovery feature on my machine?

That is, of course, as an extreme last resort.

Anyone analyze my HJT log?

Kiel, i am prompted by the history of the affair, your subsequent fault and actions, plus the appearance of the F2 key about userinit.exe in the log to suggest this: As explained in the M$ article [http://support.microsoft.com/kb/892893] the trojan could have inserted a .exe and changed this key's data to point to it....

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Winlogon

name:- Userinit
data:- C:\WINDOWS\system32\userint.exe,

::: this is what the data should be, if there is a different .exe there then while in Safe Mode regedit it to userinit.exe, [and you must include that comma!]
Reboot.

Adaware or one of your other scans may have deleted the actual dud .exe, and so this key points to nothing. I doubt if userinit.exe is bad or corrupt, so just change the key data.
But you got into safe mode via the login screen already...!! so I may be contradicting my own thinking.......wondering...you have not passworded the default computer Administration account, have you? I'm not suggesting that you do...
Anyway, just search for userinit.exe in the registry, or that key, and report what you find. I could be way wrong....cos without that file running you should not be able to get in.... but you will not hurt anything by looking.
NOTE. Do NOT fix that F2 entry in the HT log.... u have to have it.

Thanks for your effort mate!

Unfortunatly, everything seems to be correct in the registry key, it's pointing to C:\Windows\System32\userinit.exe , so I'm assuming it's fine.

What's next!

Edit: Oh, and for your info', the BSoD states the following:

DRIVER_IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL

***STOP 0x000000D1 (0x00000000, 0x00000002, 0x00000000, 0x00000000)

Hi,this is from the site im linking ,
==================
0x000000D1: DRIVER_IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL
(Click to consult the online Win XP Resource Kit article.)
The system attempted to access pageable memory using a kernel process IRQL that was too high. The most typical cause is a bad device driver (one that uses improper addresses). It can also be caused by caused by faulty or mismatched RAM, or a damaged pagefile.
===================
scroll way down near the bottom of the list for you bsod error .
http://www.aumha.org/win5/kbestop.php

The product key is not coded into the XP CD, but is a unique code and when used with M$ activation creates a code specific to the major hardware models and serial numbers in your pc. So any genuine Microsoft CD will do, just make sure to use your product code.

Do you still have cmdservices? Spybot should detect it and disclose its keys. If so, get delcmdservice from here:-
http://users.telenet.be/marcvn/tools/delcmdservice.zip

Unzip it, onto your desktop will do nicely, and dclick on the delcmdservice folder, dclick on delreg.bat to start it. When the tool finishes reboot your computer

The Driver irql not less than or equal error implies that a driver with a high irql was unable to over-ride a driver operation with a lower irql => conflict. This can come from a RAM error [swap sticks to check it, or run a memtest] or other hardware problems such as overheating on a graphics card..... or driver conflicts. The code STOP 0x000000D1 (0x00000000, 0x00000002, 0x00000000, 0x00000000) does not help me much more that that...
You can check your drivers at the windows update catalog :-
http://update.microsoft.com/microsof....aspx?ln=en-us
...and of course at your manufacturer's sites.
Btw, your log is clean.. if u suspect something lingering go to f-secure at http://www.f-secure.com/blacklight/ and download their trial blacklight tool, or to www.sysinternals.com and run RKR [follow their instructions to a T!!], or do the pandaonlinescan from here:-
http://www.pandasoftware.com/products/activescan?
Keep in touch....

...an then we never heard from kiel again....
