A follow-up summary to the advice from for : the Safe‑Mode removal run plus a full on‑demand scan is the right first move. After those steps complete, use a short, prioritized checklist to make sure the infection is really gone and to stop reinfection.

  • Run one-off, up‑to‑date scanners from outside the running OS (a portable on‑demand scanner) and a second opinion scanner that does a deep/threat scan — don’t rely on one product alone. This finds things resident on disk that real‑time AV may miss. (learn.microsoft.com)

  • Inspect and clean every autostart location (services, user logon, toolbars/BHOs and scheduled/Winlogon items) with a startup auditor that shows all automatic start points, then disable/delete unknown entries rather than guessing. After removing suspicious autostart items, reboot and rescan. (learn.microsoft.com)

  • If networking or LSP/Winsock problems persist, reset the Winsock catalog so corrupted providers or hijacks can’t keep the infection active: run the Winsock reset and reboot. Example command: netsh winsock reset. Then recheck connectivity and rescan. (learn.microsoft.com)

  • If signs point to a stealthy boot/MBR/rootkit component or the infection keeps returning, scan from a rescue environment (bootable rescue disk) or use a specialist rootkit remover before trusting the system. If the system integrity is uncertain after all tools run, back up personal files to clean media and perform a clean reinstall — that is the safest way to guarantee removal. (support.kaspersky.com)

Notes and cautions: disable System Restore while cleaning (to avoid hiding reinfection), save copies of bookmarks/passwords/certificates before removing tools, and post the follow‑up scanner logs and a new HijackThis/autostart report so helpers can target any remaining persistence mechanisms.

Hi Stereovisionary, welcome to DaniWeb :D

Download Nailfix from here:

Unzip it to your desktop, but do not run it yet.

Reboot into Safe Mode

Double-click on the Nailfix.bat on your desktop; your desktop and icons will disappear and reappear, and a window should open and close very quickly -- this is normal.

Run a full system scan with Ewido (you will be posting the log from the scan later when back in normal mode).

Reboot normally

Scan with hijackthis and have it fix the following entries:

Go to the following locations and delete the highlighted files:

C:\WINNT\Nail.exe
C:\WINNT\System32\vcdex.exe

Reboot, close any open browser windows, scan with hijackthis, and post a new log along with the Ewido log.
