I have spysherrif on my computer with the desktop background that says SYSTEM STOPPED. There is a similar thread and i followed directions, but i didn't do it right. I recorded my log and i will post it. I am a newb when it comes to this, so i would like to know which boxes to check and what to do next.

Thanks all that reply.

Hi lol102001, welcome to DaniWeb :D

Please take a look at this thread:
http://www.daniweb.com/techtalkforums/thread24085.html

And after you've moved hijackthis, please post a new log.

It's still in a Temp folder (C:\DOCUME~1\Owner\LOCALS~1\Temp\Rar$EX00.188\HijackThis.exe). It needs to be in it's own permanent folder so that it, and the backups it will create, do not get deleted during the cleanup process.

If you have an hijackthis.exe icon on your desktop, do this:

Right-click in an open area of your desktop, select New, Folder; give the folder a name (something like HJT or HijackThis), and then drag the hijackthis.exe icon into the new folder.

Then, close any open browser windows, scan with hijackthis, and post a new log please.

Run the PurityScan uninstaller.

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

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

R0 - HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Search,SearchAssistant =
R0 - HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Search,CustomizeSearch =
R0 - HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Toolbar,LinksFolderName =

O2 - BHO: ToolHelper - {CDEEC43D-3572-4E95-A2A5-F519D29F00C0} - C:\PROGRA~1\ADVANC~1\Toolbar.dll (file missing)

O3 - Toolbar: (no name) - {68DE7946-24CF-4F16-BA7B-CD72E844FF11} - (no file)

O4 - HKCU\..\Run: [Aida] C:\Documents and Settings\Owner\Application Data\eetu.exe

O16 - DPF: {15AD6789-CDB4-47E1-A9DA-992EE8E6BAD6} - http://static.windupdates.com/cab/CDT/ie/bridge-c9.cab

Now, with all windows closed (including Internet Explorer) 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:

files...

C:\Documents and Settings\Owner\Application Data\eetu.exe

-

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

-

Reboot.

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

To help protect your system from hostile ActiveX content, or special 'downloadable' files:

Download, install and keep updated, SpywareBlaster. If you've installed it for the first time:

1) Check for any available updates; if present, they'll be automatically downloaded and installed.
2) Next, "Enable all protection".
3) Exit the program.

-

Note: Remember to regularly check for updates.

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

After rebooting, rescan with hijackthis and post back a new log. Let me know how everything goes.

You should post a new hijackthis log to be sure your system is all cleaned up.

And yes, it does often take awhile to get an answer. But because we're so busy here, threads do get overlooked on occasion; if you don't get a reply within 24 hrs, you can enter another post yourself to bring the thread back to the top of the forum.

I just noticed you started a new thread; please stick to one thread for the same problem.

This thread is being closed; please follow crunchie's instructions in your other thread. EDIT -- threads merged and reopened.

Sorry dlh. You must have been closing as I merged both threads :D.

1.

I didn't find C:\Documents and Settings\Owner\Application Data\eetu.exe to delete it

Did you have Explorer set to show hidden files and folders?:

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".

2. Your log is looking pretty good. Please do the following to clean up the one loose end:

a) Close all other programs, run HJT again, and have it fix:

O23 - Service: distributed.net client (dnetc) - Unknown owner - C:\WINDOWS\system32\iosdt\iosdt.exe (file missing)

b) Once HJT completes the fixes, click on the "Config" button in the lower right corner of HijackThis' main window. In the next window click on the "Misc Tools" button at the top then click the "Delete an NT service" button. Type the following in the box and click OK:

dnetc

c) Delete the entire C:\WINDOWS\system32\iosdt folder.

d) Empty your Recycle Bin, reboot, run HJT again, and post a new log.

ok, when i looked for C:\Documents and Settings\Owner\Application Data\eetu.exe i did show hidden folders. I looked for it again and couldn't find it. I couldn't find C:\WINDOWS\system32\iosdt either. I tried to fix O23 - Service: distributed.net client (dnetc) - Unknown owner - C:\WINDOWS\system32\iosdt\iosdt.exe (file missing)
and then when i did that next step... it said it was still running. The only thing in my toolbar in the middle was my two networks, touchpad synaptics, hardware removal(for wireless card), volume, and something to show my laptop is plugged in. So i didn't know what to look for to close.

Here is another log ... if its not that serious i'll just leave it.

Are you sure you had Windows Explorer set to show hidden files and folders as I described in my last post?

I tried to fix O23 - Service: distributed.net client (dnetc) - Unknown owner - C:\WINDOWS\system32\iosdt\iosdt.exe (file missing)
and then when i did that next step... it said it was still running. ...if its not that serious i'll just leave it.

You should never leave a piece of an infection active on your system, because many of these infections can "heal" themselves if you don't totally kill them.

If the "dnetc" service is still reported to be running, you need to disable it before it can be removed:

1. Open the Services utility in your Administrative Tools control panel.

2. In the list of services, locate the service named "distributed.net client" or "dnetc" and double-click on it.

3. In the General tab of the Properties window that opens, click the Stop button.

4. Once the service is stopped, choose Disabled in the "Startup Type" drop-down menu and then click OK. Close the Services utility after that.

5. Run HijackThis and try delting the service again:

Click on the "Config" button in the lower right corner of HijackThis' main window. In the next window click on the "Misc Tools" button at the top then click the "Delete an NT service" button. Type the following in the box and click OK:

dnetc

If the operation is sucessfull, reboot, run HJT again, and post a fresh log.

OK- that's a clean log now. :)

In terms of the file and folder you didn't find, they could have been cleaned/deleted already, although after a quick review of this thread I don't see any proceedure we performed that would have done that.

Just to make sure that loose ends are cleaned up, you should probably do the following:

1. Get the lastest updates for your SpyBot and Spyware Doctor programs and run full scans with both of those.

2. In addition to those utilities, do the same with these:

ewido Security Suite - http://www.ewido.net/en/download/
Microsoft Anti-Spyware beta - http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/...&displaylang=en
Ad Aware SE Personal - http://www.lavasoftusa.com/

After each utility completes its fixes, reboot before continuing on to the next utility; have the utilities fix all of the problematic/malicious items they find.

3. To sweep up the final crumbs, download and run CCleaner.

I would like to thank all who helped. Without volunteers many peoples' computers (including mine) would be ruined. Thanks.

First of all- thanks for the appreciation, and you're welcome. :)

The version of ewido you downloded is only a trial version. Some of its functionality will expire after the trial period, but it's still worth keeping around, as the full system-scanning part of it will still be available to you.

MS AntiSpyware and Ad Aware are also good programs to keep in your "toolbox".
