Good work so far by and — the visible entries in the logs are mostly handled. A few targeted follow‑ups will confirm the system is clean and prevent reappearance without repeating the scans and removal steps already performed.

BackWeb entries often turn out to be vendor update modules rather than a stealth backdoor. Confirm origin by checking the executable’s Properties → Digital Signatures and the file location (a vendor folder is less suspicious than a random path). To see whether the component is actively contacting the network, list TCP connections with netstat -ano and map PIDs in Task Manager (View → Select Columns → enable PID). Use a process inspector (Process Explorer) to view the process tree, loaded modules and network endpoints before deleting anything — that reduces the chance of removing a legitimate updater and breaking the parent application.

Prefetch files (*.pf) are Windows cache entries; deleting a .pf doesn’t remove the program itself and is unnecessary for removal. Stubborn adware files that traditional scanners can’t delete are best removed offline: boot from a trusted rescue environment (AV rescue ISO or a Linux Live USB) so Windows doesn’t lock the file, then delete the executable and clean startup entries. Before any manual registry edits, export the keys and make a full disk image or system backup to allow rollback.

Final checklist: disable or uninstall unwanted helper apps rather than surgically removing bits, block unknown updater executables with the firewall if desired, audit Scheduled Tasks and Services for surprises, and keep periodic multi‑engine checks of any lingering suspicious executables (submit hashes to a multi‑engine scanner). These steps close the loop after the tidy work done in the thread and reduce the chance of the same “nasties” returning.

OK. Please do the following...

===============

Go to www.trendmicro.com, and then:

1. Click "Free Online Scan".
2. Click "Scan now, it's free".

It'll take a few minutes to download (especially with a dialup connection), so be patient. When it's down:

1. Select all available drives.
2. Check(tick) "Auto Clean".
3. Click "Scan".

When it completes, post back the full filename of any files that cannot be cleaned or deleted.

===============

Run HiJackThis and click "Scan", then check(tick) the following, if present:


O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [Windows] run.exe
O4 - HKLM\..\RunServices: [Windows] run.exe


Now, with all windows closed except HiJackThis, click "Fix checked".

===============

Locate and delete the following item(s), if present. Make sure your able to "view system and hidden files/ folders:"

Search for...

run.exe

...using "Start | Search...".

-

Note that some of these file(s) may or may not be present. If present, and cannot be deleted because they're 'in use', try deleting them in "".

-

Reboot.

===============

After rebooting your PC, post back a new log and let me know how everything goes.

Thanks yet again for your prompt and helpful reply crunchie. There was one file "ADW ELITEBAR.D" that trend could not delete. I'm still in the process of finishing the rest of your suggestions. Thank you.

Spybot also found StatBlaster.ALLfiles7. Here is my new hijack log file.

Did a search for run.exe and found the following:

klrun C:\ProgramFiles\KazaaLite++

C:\WINDOWS\Prefetch

C:\WINDOWS\Prefetch


I deleted the last one. Figured the other two were for kazzalite. I know Kazaa is a bad one but I just use it to search for names of songs\movies but don't use to download.

Allright I rebooted and did another hijackscan so here is the new log. I also put my folders back to not view hidden files and folders.

Congratulations! Your log looks clean - good work!

===============


Now that your PC is clean you need to follow these easy steps to keeping it this way:

Secure your Internet Explorer by going and following the setup instructions.

Use a firewall to help prevent your PC's control being usurped by undesireables. There is a link to a good, free firewall in my signature.

Install and keep updated, and
Run them both on a regular basis, following the manufacturer's recommendations.

Install an anti-virus. There are some good, free AV's available today. Make sure that it is updated regularly and have it scan your system often.

Download Spywareblaster, from www.javacoolsoftware.com install and keep it updated to help keep your system clean.
Once you have checked for updates, click the 'enable all protection' link.

Check for Windows Updates. Microsoft regularly post updates for your systems safe running. Make sure to take advantage of this. Reboot when installed and return to make sure there are no others. Go here

Clear your Temp folders.
Clear out your Temporary internet files and other temp files.
Go to Start > Settings > Control Panel >Internet Options.

Under the General tab click the Delete temporary internet files,
delete all Offline content as well. Clear out Cookies.

Also, go to Start > Find/search > Files or folders > in the named box, type: *.tmp and choose Edit > select all -> File > delete.

Empty/delete the entire contents of the C:\Windows\temp folder and C:\temp folder, if you have one. (Contents but not the folder itself.)

C:\Documents and Settings\username\Local Settings\Temp\

In order to view these files you may have to select 'show hidden files/folders.' Instructions on how to here.

Empty the Recycle Bin.

If you're having any more problems, post back.
