Unzip HJT into it's own permanent folder before doing anything in order for it to create backups. (Not a temporary folder or directly on the desktop & not directly on your hard drive). Close all (browser) windows & rescan with hijackthis. When the scan is finished place a check in the box to the left of the following entries & click 'fix checked' :

Reboot into safe mode following the instructions here & navigate to & delete the following if found:

C:\WINDOWS\System32\ stcloader.exe< file
C:\WINDOWS\gryxat.exe< file

Reboot normally.

Download & instal Adaware from here
& update it B4 scanning.
In settings under 'scanning,' have it set to
'scan within archives,'
'scan active processes,'
'scan registry,'
'deepscan registry'
'scan my IE Favourites for banned URL's,'
'scan my host's file.'
In 'tweaks' under 'scanning engine' set it to 'unload recognised processes during scanning.'
Also in 'tweaks' under 'cleaning engine' set it to 'Automatically try to unregister objects prior to deletion' & 'let Windows remove files in use at next reboot.'
Select 'activate in-depth scan' before starting scan.
When the scan is finished select 'next.'
Remove what it finds by placing a check in the box to the left of the object. Reboot

Download & instal Spybot S&D from here Update it B4 scanning. Go into settings & have it check for Beta releases also & download if available.
After the scan is complete, have spybot fix everything marked RED.
On the page that first opens when you start Spybot there is an option to immunise, you should do this. In the immunise section there is also a link to download Spywareblaster. This program will prevent the install of bad activex controls that it has knowledge of. Download that & you can keep it updated by selecting the same link that you use to download it. Reboot

crunchie, I did what you told me to do, but when i rebooted in safe mode, i had trouble with the two files that you told me to delete.when i found the file, C:\WINDOWS\System32\ stcloader.exe< file, i tried to delete it, but a box popped up saying exactly, "cannot delete stcloader:it is being used by another person or program. Close any program that might be using the file and try again." Te other file that you told me to delete, C:\WINDOWS\gryxat.exe< file, was not in that place. so i did a search for that file and found this, "GRYXAT.EXE-3659D145.pf." I am not sure if this file even has anything to do with the one you sent me, so i didnt delete anything. if you can help, please reply.

[crunchie]

See if you can rename the stcloader file to oldstcloader.exe & reboot. Then go to that file & delete it.
Please post back with a fresh HJT log after.
Concerning the other file, where did you locate the GRYXAT.EXE-3659D145.pf ??

[jiggatom]

Hi again, I tried to rename stcloader.exe but the same box popped up saying that i couldnt rename it because it was in use. as for the other file,"GRYXAT.EXE-3659D145.pf", that was found in "C:\WINDOWS\prefetch. but once again i havnt deleted anything. if you would still like a HJT log just ask and ill send one right away.
thanks

[crunchie]

Download a tool called Moveonboot from http://www.webattack.com/get/moveonboot.html It will add extra context into the right click menu allowing you to delete an unwanted file at reboot. Go to stcloader.exe & right click on it & select delete on next boot. Then post that fresh log.

[jiggatom]

hey, that program did remove that program but that still leaves the other one that you were talking about, "C:\WINDOWS\gryxat.exe, that i still havnt been able to find. anyways, here is my new HJT log

I would say that HJT has removed what was left of that file. It no longer shows in your log. However, you still have a couple more things to fix. If you do not want backups all over your desktop, you should create a new folder there & drag the hijackthis.exe into it & run it from there.

Close all (browser) windows & rescan with hijackthis. When the scan is finished place a check in the box to the left of the following entries & click 'fix checked' :

R0 - HKLM\Software\Micros oft\Internet Explorer\Main,Local Page = C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM\blank.htm

O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [msbb] c:\windows\msbb.exe

Reboot into safe mode following the instructions here & navigate to & delete the following if found:

c:\windows\msbb.exe< file

Reboot normally.

Launch Notepad, and copy/paste the bold below into a new text file. Save it as URLRepair.reg (Change the 'Save As Type' to 'All Files'). Save it in C:\

REGEDIT4
[-HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\URLSearchHooks]
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\URLSearchHooks]
"{CFBFAE00-17A6-11D0-99CB-00C04FD64497}"=""

Locate it (in C:\) and double-click on it (launch it). You'll recieve a prompt similar to: "Do you wish to merge the information into the registry?". Answer yes and wait for a message to appear similar to "Merged Successfully".

Post a new log after plz & that should be clean :) .

hi, ive done what you told me to and everything seemed to work out fine this time around. But i have another question. i was wondering what exactly it was that i did when i saved, "REGEDIT4

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\So ftware\Microsoft\Int ernet Explorer\URLSearchHo oks]

You there buddy?

[crunchie]

Yep. Been at work. That's my other life. What you were meant to do was fix the R3 entry with the _ underscore. It is still present in your log so something went wrong, or you never completed the task. The file is legitimate. Try doing the fix again.

[jiggatom]

Hi, ive done exactly what you have told me to do a couple of times now, and when i do launch the file a message apears saying, "are you sure you want to add the information in C:\URLREP~1.REG to the registry?" and the i click yes and it says "information succesfully added." but the R3 entry in the log isnt going away. "when i run hijackthis, would you like me to check "R3 URLSearchHook is missing" and have hijackthis fix it and then launch the file that i saved in C:\?

[jiggatom]

Hey, another real quick question, What does it fix on the comp when i correct this whole URL problem?

[crunchie]

It is an added registry entry where only one should exist. Try this.
Download Registrar Lite from here:
http://www.resplendence.com/download/reglite.exe

Put it in its own folder. You may want to keep this program. It is an excellent free, registry editor.

Copy and paste the follow text into the address bar, then hit 'Go':
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\URLSearchHooks

In the pane on the right are the values associated with that key.
We want to remove this one>

_{CFBFAE00-17A6-11D0-99CB-00C04FD64497}
Notice the underscore at the end.

Right click on it and select delete.
If you get a confirmation question, respond OK then close out of the program.

Ive downloaded and installed registrar lite onto my comp and now ive run into another problem. when i did the search for "HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\URLSearchHooks" the value, "_{CFBFAE00-17A6-11D0-99CB-00C04FD64497}", was not there. there was only one. It was titled default, and no other information, including the value, was given.

[crunchie]

It is probably no longer showing up in the HJT log either now. Don't ask me why 'cos I don't know, but this happens occasionally. A self healing Windows :)
It was not a problem either way, just a minor cleanup in your system.

[jiggatom]

... so, uhh, how about that registry

[crunchie]

No problems there. You can download a registry cleaner if you wish to clean out leftovers etc.

[jiggatom]

dont want to be pesky but its been 6 days since your last reply and the comp still isnt running properly

[jiggatom]

hey sorry for the last reply. my computer wasnt showing the other posts of yours. anyways, thank you so much for all of you time. you were more help than anyone else. :-D
