Quick summary and practical next steps for ’s thread: the evidence in the posted scans points to leftover toolbars/helpers and a few stale third‑party services rather than the VX2 worm. ’s advice to remove the no‑file BHOs and delete the Viewpoint folder was correct, and keeping the PartyPoker client is reasonable if it was intentionally installed (as discussed by ). The only outstanding risk is whether KillBox removed shared runtime or system DLLs — that can break apps even when no active malware remains.

Repair and verification (safe order of operations)

  • Repair missing or damaged Windows runtime files: run the System File Checker from an elevated command prompt and have the original Windows XP media handy:

    sfc /scannow

    If SFC reports it cannot replace files, reinstall the appropriate Visual C++ runtimes or the affected application(s).

  • Confirm what KillBox removed: check KillBox logs or rerun DLLCompare so the exact filenames are known. If core redistributables or MFC/CRT files were removed, restore them before doing more cleanup.

Startup, services and browser cleanup

  • The HijackThis fixes already applied were appropriate for the orphaned BHOs. For a deeper sweep, use Autoruns (Sysinternals) to inspect Run/RunOnce, Winlogon Notify and Services with missing paths; delete or disable stale service entries rather than removing unknown system ones. Per , the Creative CTHELPER entry can be disabled if it causes issues (it’s optional).

Final validation and fallback

  • Update virus/anti‑spyware signatures and run full scans (Norton is present in the logs; also re-run updated anti‑spyware tools). After stability is confirmed, create a fresh restore point and backup important data. If system instability or missing core files persist, a Windows repair install (or reinstall of affected apps) is the next reliable option.

If needed for follow‑up help, post a short list of the exact filenames KillBox removed plus a fresh HijackThis log and the community can point out anything that still needs restoring.

Crunchie I need your help again this is my g/f's mom's computer. :)

Bumpie.. can anyone interprit these logs for me ? please :)

1st up, do not stress. You do not have the VX2 infection :D. What did you delete with killbox? Hopefully they were not system files. As the warning in dllcompare says, not everything there means you are infected!

Scan with hijackthis and tick the boxes next to all the following entries, then close all browser and explorer windows, and hit the "Fix checked" button.

1st up, do not stress. You do not have the VX2 infection :D. What did you delete with killbox? Hopefully they were not system files. As the warning in dllcompare says, not everything there means you are infected!

Scan with hijackthis and tick the boxes next to all the following entries, then close all browser and explorer windows, and hit the "Fix checked" button.

Party poker is basically the largest online poker room, where most people play texas hold em for money anywhere from 20-200$ No limit or 1/2$-30/60$ limit hold em. There's usually at least 50,000 people on their at any given time of any given day.

CTHELPER.EXE should probably be disabled; quote from sysinfo:

CTHELPER is a background task that is a plug-in manager for Creative drivers. The theory is that 3rd party manufacturers can use the CTHELPER plug-in interface to produce drivers, add-on features, and fixes that will integrate with a tighter fit with Creative’s sound drivers and utilities. Given its purpose CTHELPER would normally be classified as a "leave alone" background task. It also allows Creative speaker setup to be synchronized with Windows Control Panel speaker setting. Without it running that check box in Creative speaker setting is not functional (settings are not in sync). Unfortunately there are often problems with CTHELPER, most notably that it can use 100% of CPU time so it's best left disabled unless you need it.

You're playing poker on your "g/f's mom's computer"?
