Hello Tom0289,


First:
You Have a CoolWebSearch Infection.

Please Download CoolWebShredder, from http://www.zerosrealm.com/downloads/CWShredder.zip
http://www.computercops.biz/downloads-file-329.html
http://downloads.net-integration.net/CWShredder.exe
Extract CWShredder to its own folder and run the program.

Click the 'Fix ->' buitton.

Reboot.

Second:
Download the latest version of Ad-Aware at
http://www.lavasoft.de/software/adaware/

After installing AAW, and before running the program, you NEED to FIRST update the reference file following the instructions here: http://www.lavahelp.com/howto/updref/index.html

Now do the following:
- Under Ad-aware 6 > Settings (Gear at the top) > Tweaks > Scanning Engine:
check: "Unload recognized processes during scanning."

- Under Ad-aware 6 > Settings (Gear at the top) > Tweaks > Cleaning Engine:
Check: "Let Windows remove files in use after reboot."


Press "Scan Now"
- Check option "Use Custom scanning options"
- Check option "Activate In-Depth Scan"
- Press "Select drives\folders to scan"
- Select the active partition which is usually C:

Now press "Next" to let Ad-aware scan your drives...
It will find a number of "bad" files and registry keys.
Right-click in that pane and choose "select all"


Now press "Next" again.
It will ask you whether you'd like to remove all checked items. Click OK.

Finally, close Ad-Aware, and reboot.

That ought to get rid of most of your spyware.
When you've done all that, restart your computer, re-run Hijack This, and post a fresh log in this thread..
There will be more to do!

If you do not recognize this program, remove it also
O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [PCDRealtime] C:\WINDOWS\realtime.exe

Close all windows except HijackThis and click Fix checked:

Reboot in Safe Mode and delete the following: (you may need to show hidden files**)
C:\WINDOWS\realtime.exe (only if rmeoved above)


**Show hidden files/folders as per the instructions here http://www.tacktech.com/display.cfm?ttid=190

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. (not necessary, but recommended)

Post another HiJackThis log in this thread for final review.


Tom, other than the above fixes, there is nothing in your HiJackThis log to indicate why the programs are not loading. I will ask Hunter to look at this post and make any recommendations he may have. I am also going to delete your second post since every thing is covered in this thread.

Hey Tom,

I am assuming that all you did so fat was follow the instruction given at this Gladiator site on getting rid of that system32.exe is that correct ? or did you do something else ?

In anycase this statement is to vague..."i got rid of the probvlem with system32.exe but most of my games and a few other programs wont run. all that happens is that an empty black box appears for a second and then dissapears."


You must tell me exactly what games and programs by Name..and are these games you play on line.
If they are on line games did they come with spyware ???

Names please. :)

I have noticed that you have no realtime protection on your PC..no Antivirus except Norton( and is it being updated and is it a current version of Norton..or has it expired and does not update). ..Antitrojan..or a firewall..is that correct ?

Try this program to clean all your files..
System Security Suite

Powered by Borland Delphi

Requirements: Windows 95/98/ME/2000/XP, Internet Explorer 4.0 or higher

System Security Suite (3S) is the program to remove internet tracks and junk files from your computer. It allows you to delete Cookies, clear Internet Explorer Cache, delete index.dat Files, clear Typed URLs, Windows Temp Folder and much more. You can also specify custom folder locations with file masks, which will be cleaned in addition to the selected items. In addition, the program allows you to view and optionally remove programs that launch automatically at Windows startup as well as Browser Helper Objects.
05.01.04 System Security Suite v1.04 has been released (268 Kb)

Download It!
http://www.igorshpak.net/


New in version 1.04
- BHO's (Browser Helper Objects) Manager has been added

Stop looking for spies inside your computer... Have a look inside your browser!

A "Browser Helper Object" (BHO) is a piece of code that allows to customize and control Internet Explorer. When IE starts, BHOs start too and then your browsing session will be under their control. BHOs don't need your permission to install and they can be used for malicious purposes like gathering info on your surfing habits and personal data. Since BHOs use IE for their communications you cannot stop them by firewall as long as IE has access to Internet. Use BHO's Manager for viewing, deleting and locking / unlocking of suspicious BHOs.

In addition, the program allows you to view and optionally remove programs that launch automatically at Windows startup.

System Requirements: Windows 95/98/ME/2000/XP, IE 4.01 or later with integrated shell.

Program can:
- delete Cookies,
- clear Internet Explorer Cache,
- delete index.dat Files,
- clear Typed URLs,
- clear Internet Explorer History,
- clear AutoCompleted passwords,
- clear AutoCompleted Forms,
- clear Windows Temp Folder,
- clear Document History,
- clear Run History,
- clear Search history,
- clear Recycle Bin,
- clear Windows Media Player MRUs,
- clear Recently Printed Files,
- clear any folders defined by user (completely or according to mask),
- save you from annoying programms which run every time on Windows start,
- give you control over Browser Helper Objects (BHOs).

And the best of all 3S is Freeware for personal use.

3S interface is very simple: just check the items you want program to clear and
click "Clear Selected Items" button.

As for User Defined folders, you can define the filters (a set of masks) for them
like these:
*.* (I hope you won't use this filter for C:\ ;) )
*.tmp;*.bin;temp???.*; tmp*.*
If you use more than one mask for a filter you must separate them by semicolon
as it's shown above. You can check or uncheck any folder at any time: only
selected folders will be cleaned.

You can also prevent of the run some AutoRun tasks by "locking" them or marking them for delete.
Be carefil, it may be a usefil programm, not a virus or a keylogger so try to "lock and check" them before deletion (The same is right for BHO's Manager as well).

Feedback:
Yours suggestions are welcome: just drop your letter to igor_shpak@xtra.co.nz or igor_shpak@msn.com

Donations:
3S is free for personal use, but I gratefully accept donations so I can develop it.
Use About TabSheet to make a donation if you want. Help me to keep it free for you!


Then you should get an online scan at one of these sites.

Here are some free web based anti-virus scanners.

They detect existing infections and identify the virus (malware) involved.
