    You MUST manage to get into Safe Mode for the fix to work.

You will also need to do this.

You should print out these instructions, or copy them to a NotePad file for reading while in Safe Mode, because you will not be able to connect to the Internet to read from this site.

Next, please reboot your computer in Safe Mode by doing the following :

  • After hearing your computer beep once during startup, but before the Windows icon appears, tap the F8 key continually;

  • Select the first option, to run Windows in Safe Mode, then press "Enter".
  • Choose your usual account.

Once in Safe Mode, open the SmitfraudFix folder again and double-click smitfraudfix.cmd
Select option #2 - Clean by typing 2 and press "Enter" to delete infected files.

You will be prompted : "Registry cleaning - Do you want to clean the registry ?"; answer "Yes" by typing Y and press "Enter" in order to remove the Desktop background and clean registry keys associated with the infection.

The tool will now check if wininet.dll is infected. You may be prompted to replace the infected file (if found); answer "Yes" by typing Y and press "Enter".

The tool may need to restart your computer to finish the cleaning process; if it doesn't, please restart it into Normal Windows.
A text file will appear onscreen, with results from the cleaning process; please copy/paste the content of that …

No, don't check that. It has to do with Spwspweeper, and if spysweeper is still on your computer, checking that could cause problems. If SS is not on your system, then you can check it.

kylethedarkn - Just for future reference, just because it says file missing, does not mean it is :). It can be a bug in HJT.

Hey there. Congrats on the clean log. In order to keep your self clean you will need to do a few things. The biggest would be installing Service Pack 2. An offical Microsoft update that adds new features to windows, as well as much more security.

More info and installation of SP2: http://www.microsoft.com/windowsxp/sp2/sp2_whattoknow.mspx

You will also need to get an antivirus. I reccomend ewido. It works well and is free for 14 days, even after the 14 days yo ucan still use it you just won't get the auto update feature.

Thats really about it, the main thing you need to do is get an AV software, and SP2.

Happy Computing:).

Can this be marked as solved? Are the problems gone?

Read my above edit.

More on taskmon: http://www.liutilities.com/products/wintaskspro/processlibrary/taskmon/


Sorry for the confusion.

tayspen 28 <Insert title here> Team Colleague

Crap. Hold that you have 98.

DO NOT DELETE TASKMON - If you already did, kill box should have made a backup if you told it to. Also, windows will re generate it...Or it should

Wink.exe : http://castlecops.com/s4399-Wink_exe.html


I am very sorry, that was my mistake, but nothing we can't fix.

Sorry :(


EDIT: Ok, taskmon is back, no harm done :).

New log is clean. :)

Hi megaman99

First of all- welcome to DaniWeb :)

We ask that members not tag their questions on to a thread previously started by another member (regardless of how similar your problem might seem). Not only does it divert the focus of the thread away from the original poster's problem, but it also makes it less likely that you yourself will get the individual attention that you need.

Please start your own thread and post your questions and HJT log in that thread.

For a full description of our posting guidelines and general rules of conduct, please see this page:

http://www.daniweb.com/techtalkforums/faq.php?faq=daniweb_policies

Thanks for understanding.

tayspen 28 <Insert title here> Team Colleague

Sure, lets finish this one first, then you can create a new thread for the other computer :).

tayspen 28 <Insert title here> Team Colleague

That is ok. Don't worry about ewido. Please do the following...

Please download Pocket Killbox by O^E.

  • Save it to your desktop.
  • Please double-click Killbox.exe to run it.
  • Select:
    • Delete on Reboot
    • then Click on the All Files button.
  • Please copy the file paths below to the clipboard by highlighting ALL of them and pressing CTRL + C (or, after highlighting, right-click and choose copy):

    C:\WINDOWS\taskmon.exe


    C:\Program Files\Wink\Wink.exe


  • Return to Killbox, go to the File menu, and choose Paste from Clipboard.
  • Click the red-and-white Delete File button. Click Yes at the Delete on Reboot prompt. Click OK at any PendingFileRenameOperations prompt (and please let me know if you receive this message!).

If your computer does not restart automatically, please restart it manually.

Then post a new HJT log.

tayspen 28 <Insert title here> Team Colleague

You still have the party poker entries? Did you chose to keep those?

Besides that the log looks good.

tayspen 28 <Insert title here> Team Colleague

Hmm, that folder has to be there. It can't be deleted. Maybe it got hidden somehow? Please have windows show hidden files then try again.

Go to My Computer >Tools >Folder Options >View tab and make sure that Show hidden files and folders is enabled. Also make sure that the System Files and Folders are showing / visible. Uncheck the Hide protected operating system files - option.

Hi, and welcome to DaniWeb.

Well, despite what McAffee says, lets still see if you are infected. To me it does sound like you have a nasty or two.


Download HijackThis (current verison is v1.99.1)

Make a new folder to put your HijackThis.exe into.

(Anywhere on your hard drive is fine other than your Desktop or the Temp folder. Suitable examples are:

  • C:\HijackThis\
  • C:\Programs\hijackthis\
  • C:\Windows\My Documents\HJT\

but feel free to use any name.)

Extract and save the HijackThis download to the new folder you made. Then navigate to it and run HijackThis from there. (This is to ensure it makes the necessary backups for recovery if fixes are made) Then, doubleclick HijackThis.exe, and click Scan.

When the scan is finished, the "Scan" button will change into a "Save Log" button. Press that and copy & paste its contents in your reply. Most of what it lists will be harmless or even essential, don't try to fix anything yourself.

Posting a HJT log may shed some lights on some more infections, making the cleaning process easier, as we would no exactly how to "attack" it.
