Hi! I just bought a new hp laptop about 2 weeks ago and i'm already having problems with spyware and such. I have norton and i did a full scan and nothing comes up but my computer won't shut down and i know that's not normal. :confused: So, i went on this site and read about "hijackthis" and did the whole sytem scan thing there too... this is what came out and i don't have any idea what anything is so if some really nice person wants to help me, that would be WONDERFUL!!!

so again, THANKS!!!!
-crazy girl

Couple things...when did this start? What did you do after the last time it shut down properly? Next what Norton do you have? Do you have it current with live update? Make sure Norton is to date. Also you can go to AVG.com download free antivirus software and try them. I use Norton and AVG and AVG usually finds more than Norton. Let us know.

Hi crazy girl, welcome to DaniWeb :)

While startup and/or shutdown problems can definitely be caused by non-malicious problems, I do see indications of at least one malware program in your HJT log.
Before we begin cleaning though, there is one thing you need to take care of:

C:\DOCUME~1\STEPHA~1\LOCALS~1\Temp\~AceTemp\hijackthis\HijackThis.exe

The log entry above indicates that you are running HijackThis from within a Temp/Temporary folder. Please do the following:

Create a folder for HJT outside of any Temp/Temporary folders and move the HijackThis.exe file to that folder now. A folder such such as C:\HijackThis or C:\Spyware Tools\HijackThis will do.

One of the normal steps in eliminating malicious programs is to entirely delete the contents of all Temp folders. Given that, if HijackThis (and other data that you care about) is living in those Temp folders, it will be erased along with everything else!
Temp/Temporary folders are just that- Temporary. They are not meant for permanent storage, as their contents are often delete in the course of troubleshooting, by running disk clean-up utilities, etc.
____________________________________________________________________________________

Once you've fixed the above problem:

You will need to close/quit all web browser programs and disconnect from the Internet for the following, so you should print out these instructions or save them into a text file with Notepad.

* Open your Add/Remove Programs control panel and uninstall any software related to "TrustInBar" or "TrustInCash" if you find it listed there.

* Download the most current updates for Norton AV and Windows Defender.

* Download and install ewido Anti-spyware (30-day trial version) - http://www.ewido.net/en/download/

Install and Configure ewido:

  • Close all other Applications and then run the ewido installer
  • Select language click Ok
  • Click I Agree
  • Click next
  • Click Install
  • Click Finish
  • Wait Ewido will open main screen automatically.
  • Wait again a few minutes and Ewido Should Auto update itself. If it doesn't click update at top of screen.
  • This in very important to get updates
  • When updating has finished. Close Ewido.

* Download ATF-Cleaner and save it to a convenient location. Don 't actually run the program yet.


* Close all open programs/windows, especially web browsers. Run another HijackThis scan, put a check in the boxes to the left of the following entries, and then click the "Fix Checked" button.
Close HijackThis once the fixes complete:

  • Instead of Windows loading as normal, a menu with options should appear;
  • Select the first option, to run Windows in Safe Mode, then press "Enter".
  • Log in to the Administrator account.

* Run ATF-Cleaner
-
Double-click ATF-Cleaner.exe to open the program.
- Under Main choose: Select All
- Click the Empty Selected button.

Click the Empty Selected button.
NOTE: If you would like to keep your saved passwords, please click No at the prompt.

If you use Opera browser: Click Opera at the top and choose: Select All
Click the Empty Selected button.
NOTE: If you would like to keep your saved passwords, please click No at the prompt.
Click Exit on the Main menu to close the program.


* Run full system scans with Norton and Windows Defender. Have the programs fix all malicious items they find.


* Open Ewido

  • Click on scanner
  • Click on Complete System Scan and the scan will begin.
  • You will be prompted to clean the first infection.
  • Select "Perform action on all infections", then proceed.
  • Once the scan has completed, there will be a button located on the bottom of the screen named Save report
  • Click Save report.
  • Save the report .txt file to your desktop or a location where you can find it easily.
  • Close Ewido.

* Open Windows Explorer, and in the Folder Options->View settings under the Tools menu, select "show hidden files and folders", and uncheck "Hide protected operating system files" and "Hide extentions for known file types".

* Search for the following files and delete them if found:
C:\WINDOWS\se_spoof.dll
C:\WINDOWS\inetloader.dll

* Delete the entire C:\Program Files\TrustIn Contextual folder.


* Empty your Recycle Bin and reboot normally.

* Run HijackThis again and post the new log. Also post the log that ewido generated.

Also, I could not find the TrustIn Contextual folder in the Windows Explorer (in Program Files) although it was in "Add/remove program" list and when I clicked on the remove/change button, it stayed put. It no longer has a file size but it won't allow itself to be removed.

Thanks again!

* Good- your new HJT log is clean, and ewido seems to have disinfected a few other malicious items. :)

* In terms of the TrustIn Contextual folder, it may have been deleted already, as it was marked as "(file missing)" in your first HJT log. If you search for the folder in the way I suggested, but didn't find it, it most likely doesn't exist anymore.
Sometimes the names of programs that have been sucessfully uninstalled get "stuck" in the Add/Remove Programs control panel's list and need to be removed manually, and this might be the case with your TrustIn entry. To remove the entry from the control panel, see this Microsoft support article.

* Are you still experiencing shutdown issues or other problems? If so, please give us the details.

Thank you so much!!!!!!!!!
I manually deleted the TrustIn Contextual file and I am no longer having shutdown problems either!!!
:)

Great- glad we could help you get it sorted out. :)
Does everything seem to be back to normal now?

yep. normal. wonderful!

Very good, then- I'll mark this one as "Solved". :)
