1. Download AboutBuster here:
http://www.malwareby...AboutBuster.zip

Unzip it to your desktop but don't run it yet we'll do that later on down in this list in SAFE MODE.

2. Print out these instructions so you have them handy as some of the steps need to be done in safe mode and you may not be able to go online. We need IE to remain closed throughout the process.

3. Make sure your PC is configured to show hidden files

Open Windows Explorer & Go to Tools > Folder Options. Click on the View tab and make sure that "Show hidden files and folders" is checked. Also uncheck "Hide protected operating system files" and untick "hide extensions for known file types" . Now click "Apply to all folders"
Click "Apply" then "OK"

4. Next, go to Start->Run and type "Services.msc" (without quotes) then hit Ok

Scroll down and find the service called 'Network Security Service' or 'Remote Procedure Call (RPC) Helper' or 'Workstation NetLogon Service'. When you find it, double-click on it. In the next window that opens, click the Stop button, then click on properties and under the General Tab, change the Startup Type to Disabled. Now hit Apply and then Ok and close any open windows.

5. Reboot to Safe Mode
How to start the computer in Safe mode
http://service1.syma...001052409420406

6. Scan with Hijack This (current version is 198.2) and put checks next to all the following, then click "Fix Checked".

C:\WINNT\javakw.exe
C:\WINNT\system32\msux.exe
C:\WINNT\ntzr32.exe
c:\program files\Webdialer\ <-- delete entire folder



7. Double click on the AboutBuster tool I had you download earlier. Follow the instruction prompts to use the program and let do two scans (it will ask). When finished, press the *Save log* button. I will want a copy of that log after all steps are completed here.

8. Scan with Adaware and let it remove any bad files found.

9. Clean out temporary and TIF files. Go to Start > Run and type in the box: cleanmgr. Let it scan your system for files to remove. Make sure these 3 are checked and then press *ok* to remove:
Temporary Files
Temporary Internet Files
Recycle Bin

10. Reboot to normal mode, scan again with Hijack This and post a new log here.

11. NOTE:Two possibly three or four files may have been deleted from your computer by the hijacker and may need to be replaced.

Control.exe
Shell.dll
SDHelper.dll (if you are using Spybot Search & Destroy)
Hosts file (no extension)

If control.exe, shell.dll or SDHelper is missing
Go here: http://spywareinfo.c...n/winfiles.html and download the needed file.

For a missing Hosts file:
Download Hoster from here: http://members.aol.c...dbee/hoster.zip
Press 'Restore Original Hosts' and press 'OK'
Exit Program.
Note: if you were using a custom Hosts file you will need to replace any of those entries yourself

If you have Spybot S&D installed and SDHelper.dll is missing, replace it here:
http://www.spywarein...s.html#sdhelper and download SDHelper.dll. Copy the file to the folder containing your Spybot S&D program (normally C:\Program Files\Spybot - Search & Destroy)

12. Additionally, Please check your ActiveX security settings. They may have been changed by this CWS variant to allow ALL ActiveX!! If they have been changed, reset your active x security settings in IE as recommended.
Quote:

ActiveX controls and plug-ins
* Download signed ActiveX controls (Prompt)
* Download unsigned ActiveX controls (Disable)
* Initialize and script ActiveX controls not marked as safe (Disable)
* Run ActiveX controls and plug-ins (Enabled) (This actually refers to Java and Flash, not ActiveX)
* Script ActiveX controls marked safe for scripting (Prompt)

13. Finally, do an online scan at the following site. Let it remove any infected files found.
Trend Micro (PC-cillin) - Free on-line Scan
http://housecall.antivirus.com

Finally, when you are all done, please post the new HJT log and the AboutBuster log here for review

You certainly have an extremely infected system. I am going to take an extra step in an attempt to eliminate most of this junk.


First:
Please download, install, the Ewido Security Suite:
http://www.ewido.net/en/download/

Update the definitions, but do not run it yet.
Reboot into Safe Mode, then run Ewido and remove all it finds.

Post the log file it generates in this thread.


Second:
From the Desktop
Start -> Run -> services.msc (press 'Enter')
Scroll down the list of services to find Remote Procedure Call
Double click on it
Under Service Status, press 'Stop' button (if not greyed out)
Under Service Type, using pulldown menu, select 'Disabled'
Press 'OK'
Exit


Third:
1. Download AboutBuster here:
http://www.malwareby...AboutBuster.zip

Unzip it to your desktop but don't run it yet we'll do that later on down in this list in SAFE MODE.

2. Print out these instructions so you have them handy as some of the steps need to be done in safe mode and you may not be able to go online. We need IE to remain closed throughout the process.

3. Make sure your PC is configured to show hidden files

Open Windows Explorer & Go to Tools > Folder Options. Click on the View tab and make sure that "Show hidden files and folders" is checked. Also uncheck "Hide protected operating system files" and untick "hide extensions for known file types" . Now click "Apply to all folders"
Click "Apply" then "OK"

4. Next, go to Start->Run and type "Services.msc" (without quotes) then hit Ok

Scroll down and find the service called 'Network Security Service' or 'Remote Procedure Call (RPC) Helper' or 'Workstation NetLogon Service'. When you find it, double-click on it. In the next window that opens, click the Stop button, then click on properties and under the General Tab, change the Startup Type to Disabled. Now hit Apply and then Ok and close any open windows.

5. Reboot to Safe Mode

6. Scan with Hijack This (current version is 198.2) and put checks next to all the following, then click "Fix Checked".

7. Double click on the AboutBuster tool I had you download earlier. Follow the instruction prompts to use the program and let do two scans (it will ask). When finished, press the *Save log* button. I will want a copy of that log after all steps are completed here.

8. Scan with Adaware and let it remove any bad files found.

9. Clean out temporary and TIF files. Go to Start > Run and type in the box: cleanmgr. Let it scan your system for files to remove. Make sure these 3 are checked and then press *ok* to remove:
Temporary Files
Temporary Internet Files
Recycle Bin

10. Reboot to normal mode, scan again with Hijack This and post a new log here.

11. NOTE:Two possibly three or four files may have been deleted from your computer by the hijacker and may need to be replaced.

Control.exe
Shell.dll
SDHelper.dll (if you are using Spybot Search & Destroy)
Hosts file (no extension)

If control.exe, shell.dll or SDHelper is missing
Go here: http://spywareinfo.c...n/winfiles.html and download the needed file.

For a missing Hosts file:
Download Hoster from here: http://members.aol.c...dbee/hoster.zip
Press 'Restore Original Hosts' and press 'OK'
Exit Program.
Note: if you were using a custom Hosts file you will need to replace any of those entries yourself

If you have Spybot S&D installed and SDHelper.dll is missing, replace it here:
http://www.spywarein...s.html#sdhelper and download SDHelper.dll. Copy the file to the folder containing your Spybot S&D program (normally C:\Program Files\Spybot - Search & Destroy)

12. Additionally, Please check your ActiveX security settings. They may have been changed by this CWS variant to allow ALL ActiveX!! If they have been changed, reset your active x security settings in IE as recommended.
Quote:

ActiveX controls and plug-ins
* Download signed ActiveX controls (Prompt)
* Download unsigned ActiveX controls (Disable)
* Initialize and script ActiveX controls not marked as safe (Disable)
* Run ActiveX controls and plug-ins (Enabled) (This actually refers to Java and Flash, not ActiveX)
* Script ActiveX controls marked safe for scripting (Prompt)

13. Finally, do an online scan at the following site. Let it remove any infected files found.

QUOTE (LoPhatPhuud @ Jul 9 2005, 09:54 PM)
You certainly have an extremely infected system. I am going to take an extra step in an attempt to eliminate most of this junk.


First:
Please download, install, the Ewido Security Suite:
http://www.ewido.net/en/download/

Update the definitions, but do not run it yet.
Reboot into Safe Mode, then run Ewido and remove all it finds.

Post the log file it generates in this thread.


Second:
From the Desktop
Start -> Run -> services.msc  (press 'Enter')
Scroll down the list of services to find Remote Procedure Call
Double click on it
Under Service Status, press 'Stop' button (if not greyed out)
Under Service Type, using pulldown menu, select 'Disabled'
Press 'OK'
Exit


Third:
1. Download AboutBuster  here:
http://www.malwareby...AboutBuster.zip

Unzip it to your desktop but don't run it yet we'll do that later on down in this list in SAFE MODE.

2. Print out these instructions so you have them handy as some of the steps need to be done in safe mode and you may not be able to go online. We need IE to remain closed throughout the process.

3. Make sure your PC is configured to show hidden files

Open Windows Explorer & Go to Tools > Folder Options. Click on the View tab and make sure that "Show hidden files and folders" is checked. Also uncheck "Hide protected operating system files" and untick "hide extensions for known file types" . Now click "Apply to all folders"
Click "Apply" then "OK"

4. Next, go to Start->Run and type "Services.msc" (without quotes) then hit Ok

Scroll down and find the service called 'Network Security Service' or 'Remote Procedure Call (RPC) Helper' or 'Workstation NetLogon Service'. When you find it, double-click on it. In the next window that opens, click the Stop button, then click on properties and under the General Tab, change the Startup Type to Disabled. Now hit Apply and then Ok and close any open windows.

5. Reboot to Safe Mode

6. Scan with Hijack This (current version is 198.2) and put checks next to all the following, then click "Fix Checked".

Perhaps a corrupted download on About:Buster. The file from the link I provided was fine. Its not really needed now.

Before we begin, please be sure that HiJackThis is in its own folder. This will allow us to use backups to restore entries if necessary. Please do not put HiJackThis in a temporary folder, or on the Desktop. I suggest using 'C:\Program Files\Hijackthis\' or C:\HiJackThis\, but any name you choose is fine.

Reboot in Safe Mode* and run HiJackThis. <-- IMPORTANT

Check the following items in HijackThis.
(note: If any R* items do not appear in Safe Mode, re-run HiJackThis in Normal Mode and remove them after you finish removing these items.)
O2 - BHO: Class - {FDFA5EAF-F285-22C0-D241-E5C772FB3434} - C:\WINNT\netrh32.dll (file missing)

O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [javaeq32.exe] C:\WINNT\javaeq32.exe
O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [sdkrg32.exe] C:\WINNT\system32\sdkrg32.exe


Close all windows except HijackThis and click Fix checked.

While still in Safe Mode*, delete the following: (you may need to show hidden files**)
(Files specified without a full path will be located in C:\Windows\ or C:\Windows\System32\)
C:\WINNT\javaeq32.exe
C:\WINNT\system32\sdkrg32.exe

*How to Boot into Safe mode: http://service1.syma...001052409420406
**Show Hidden and System files and folders: http://www.xtra.co.n...1916458,00.html

Also, uncheck the boxes for hiding known file extensions and hiding protected operating system files. We want to see it all. When we finish here, it would be a good idea to rehide the protected operating system files but leave the rest to be shown.

Reboot in normal mode

Run HiJackThis again and post a new log in this thread.

At last, your system is clean and free of spyware! Want to keep it that way?

Here are some simple steps you can take to reduce the chance of infection in the future.

1. Visit Windows Update:
Make sure that you have all the Critical Updates recommended for your operating system and Internet Explorer. This includes SP1 and SP2 if you use Windows XP. The first defense against infection is a properly patched Operating System.
a. Windows Update: http://v5.windowsupd.../en/default.asp

2. Adjust your security settings for ActiveX:
Select Internet Options from the Control Panels, or from Internet Explorer (Tools -> Internet Options)
Press 'default level', then OK
Now press "Custom Level."

In the ActiveX controls and plug-ins section set these options:
'Download singed ActiveX controls' - Prompt
'Download unsigned ActiveX controls' - Disable
'Initialize and script ActiveX controls not maked as safe'- Disable
All other options accept the default

3. Download and install the following free programs
a. SpywareBlaster: http://www.javacools...areblaster.html
b. IE/Spyad: https://netfiles.uiu...ww/resource.htm
c. BHODemon: http://www.definitiv...om/bhodemon.htm

4. Install Spyware Detection and Removal Programs:
You may also want to consider installing one of the following:
a. Microsoft AntiSpyware: http://www.microsoft...re/default.mspx
NOTE: MS AntiSpyware only runs on Windows 2000, XP, and 2003.
b. Spybot S&D: http://security.koll...n&page=download
c. AdAware: http://www.lavasoft.de/

Use these programs to regularly scan your system for and remove many forms of spyware/malware. I recommend and use Micosoft AntiSpyware.

If you use, or plan on using, additional spyware/malware detection and/or removal programs, please check Items 8 and 9.

5. Install 'Spoofstick"
Spoofstick is a simple browser extension that helps users detect spoofed (fake) websites. This extension is free and installs in Internet Explorer and Mozilla Firefox.
a. http://www.corestreet.com/spoofstick

6. Reset System Restore
If you are using Windows ME or Windows XP, please reset your System Restore. See Windows help for information.

7. Clean Temporary Files and Folders
Download and install the disk cleanup utility called Cleanup! from here:
http://cleanup.stevengould.org/
http://www.hijackthi.../CleanUp312.exe

Cleanup! will get rid of any malware which may be hiding in your temp folders (a common hiding place). You may also regain a massive amount of disk space.
Here is a tutorial which describes its usage:
http://www.bleepingc...tutorial93.html

Run the disk cleanup utility called Cleanup! that you have already downloaded and installed
Check the custom settings to your liking under options, but be sure to delete temporary files and temporary internet files for all user profiles. Also, cleanout the prefetch folder and the recycle bin.
Then reboot into normal mode to let it clean out the remaining files.


8. Rogue/Suspect Anti-Spyware
Before using or purchasing any Spyware/Malware protection/removal program, always check the Rogue/Suspect Spyware List. It will save you a lot of grief, as well as money if you are thinking of purchasing. Here is the link: http://www.spywarewa...nti-spyware.htm

9. Anti-Spyware Programs Compared
Want to know just how effective your anti-spyware program is? Wonder how well any of the "rogue" programs listed above work? Check this link for an independent comparison of several anti-spyware programs: http://www.spywarewa...-test-guide.htm

10. Alternate Browser
Consider using an alternate browser as your default. I recommend and use Firefox as my primary browser. It is still necessary to keep Internet Explorer current and protected in order to use Windows Update.


For more information about Spyware, the tools available, and other informative material, including information on how you may have been infected in the first place, please check out this link: http://forum.gladiat...?showtopic=9857

"It is your responsibility to read and adhere to the End User Licensing Agreement (EULA) of all software and services mentioned."

Good luck, and thanks for coming to our forums for help with your security and malware issues.
