Hi,
Download Ewido and install it. Then run, you will receive a warning message saying "Database not found", click "OK" for this. Next in the main screen, click "Update" and click "Start Update". After the update process, click on the "Scanner" button in the left menu, then click on the "Start" button.
If ewido finds anything, it will pop up a notification. You can select "Clean" and check the boxes "Perform action with all infections" and "Create encrypted backup" before clicking on OK.
When the scan finishes, click on "Save Report". This will create a text file.


Next, download HijackThis and unzip it to dedicated folder (like C:\HijackThisFolder\hijackthis.exe).
Then run it and click the button Do a System scan and save log file. HijackThis will perform a scan and saves the log file as hijackthis.log in the same folder where it is installed and it also opens the file automatically.
Copy the entire contents of the file and post it here along with Ewido log.

Thank you for helping out.

Here are the logs:

Hi,

Download and install Ad-Aware SE and CCleaner, do not run them now.


Make Windows to show all files:-

Click Apply and then click OK to exit.


Reboot in Safe Mode:-
Restart (or switch ON) the PC.
Then, keep tapping the F8 Key.
From the menu that will be displayed, out of which choose Safe Mode and press Enter.


Run HijackThis and click Do only a System scan.
Then put a check mark infront of below listed entries:-

Close all other open programs except Hijackthis and click the button Fix Checked in HijackThis.


Delete these files:-
C:\WINDOWS\System32\sysbho.exe
C:\WINDOWS\System32\OLEEXT.dll
C:\WINDOWS\System32\sysbho.exe
C:\WINDOWS\System32\amstxml4.dll

Delete this folder:-
C:\Program Files\PSGuard

Go to Start > Search. Here click "All files and folders" in the left pane. Next, click on "More advanced options". Here select the options "Search system folders", "Search hidden files and folders" and "Search subfolders". Next, type/copy the below mentioned filename and search for it, if you find it, right-click on it and click delete:-
sysmain.dll


Run CCleaner, click "Options" button and here go to "Advanced" tab and uncheck the option "Only delete files in Windows Temp folder older than 48 hours". Click OK to exit from the Options. Finally click "Run Cleaner" and click "OK" to continue cleaning.

After this, run AdAware, and click the "Start" button (in AdAware) and select the options "Perform full system scan", "Scan for neglible risk entries", and click "Next" to start the scan. When the scan is completed, remove all the things it may find.


Reboot to Normal Mode. Run HijackThis again, click Do a System scan and save log, and post the fresh log.

Ok, I did as you wrote. But there wasn't any:

C:\WINDOWS\System32\OLEEXT.dll
C:\Program Files\PSGuard
or
sysmain.dll

here's the log:

Thanks again,

Have'nt had any problems for a while now. Looks good so far

Hi,
To make sure that everything is clean, you can perform an online virus scan at Panda ActiveScan with the "Disinfection" option enabled. Save the log file it gives after the scan, and post back the same.

hmm, I started having some problems. A message tells me wininet.dll is missing when attempting certain functions and my computer reboots from time to time.

Any ideas?

Hi,
Delete these files:-
C:\new.exe
C:\Program Files\Internet Explorer\guardian.dll
C:\Program Files\Internet Explorer\hookDLL.dll
C:\Program Files\Internet Explorer\r_process.dll
C:\WINDOWS\Downloaded Program Files\CONFLICT.2\on-line.exe
C:\WINDOWS\ms2.exe
C:\WINDOWS\system32\backup.old
C:\WINDOWS\system32\dktibs.exe
C:\WINDOWS\system32\paydial.exe
C:\WINDOWS\system32\webdlg32.inf
C:\WINDOWS\system32\winsx.inf
C:\WINDOWS\webdlg32.cab

And, next go to Start > Run and type regsvr32 c:\windows\system32\wininet.dll and press ENTER key. After this, restart the system. Check whether you receive the "Wininet.dll missing" errors, and post back the results.

hey,

I couldnt delete the following though:

C:\new.exe
C:\WINDOWS\ms2.exe
C:\WINDOWS\system32\dktibs.exe
C:\WINDOWS\system32\paydial.exe

should I try it in safemode?

Hi,
Yes, you can try deleting them in safe mode. If they dont get delted, then you can use KillBox to delete them.

(In KillBox, select the options "End Explorer while killing file" and "Standard file kill" and then provide the path of the file to be deleted and click the button with a Cross mark to delete the file)

Hey,

Got the files deleted in Killbox and I followed the steps you told me to. Im still getting the errormessage about the misssing wininet.dll.

I have downloaded wininet.dll from www.dll-files.com, is it just a matter of putting it in its right place?

Thanks for sticking with this computer caveman.

Hi,
Lets use the built-in System File Checker feature first to check and restore the system files. Go to Start > Run and type:-
sfc /scannow
and press ENTER key. This brings up the SFC dialog box which scans the PC for altered/missing system files and restores the original one.
(Note that there is a SPACE between sfc and /)
You can get more info on SFC here : http://www.updatexp.com/scannow-sfc.html

hey,

I ran the sfc /scannow, but the problem is still there: missing wininet.dll

what now?

Hi,
Copy this text C:\WINDOWS\system32\dllcache and paste it in the "Address bar" of My Computer and press ENTER key. This should open the dllcache folder in System32 directory. Here, there will be a backup of Wininet.dll file, copy this and paste it in C:\Windows\System32 folder. Restart the PC, and check if the error occurs or not.

hmm,

There is no wininet.dll in the dllcache folder.

I think Im losing it here :eek:

:oops: Sorry, try pasting the DLL file downloaded from the website, and restart the PC, and check whether the error reoccurs.
