in need of spyware help
« on: March 06, 2005, 12:32:13 PM »
Dear thetechguide,
My computer has obviously been infected with some form of spyware or hijacker, and through a multitude of scans, I have been unable to remove this problem.  Adds pop-up around ever 10-30 seconds while no explorer (AVANT) is running.  I used to have the CSW msconfig bug but I used the CSW shredder to delete it, I hope, I also replaced the msconfig.exe file in the prefetch folder with the 'actual' file as was directed by CSW chronicles.  However i was unable to delete the regestries they directed because I was unable to find them.  Furthermore, I used to have the prutct file on my computer, but i also deleted that.  I am not sure that any of this has worked effectively because there are still problems that prevent my easy usage of this computer.  Your help would be greatly appreciated!  Here is my hijackthis.log file:

in need of spyware help
« Reply #1 on: March 06, 2005, 03:52:05 PM »
Can you please download and save to desktop Elite.zip
UNZIP the contents to desktop so you will now have Elite.reg on the desktop
We'll need this shortly
[attachment=53:attachment]

Do another scan with Hijackthis and put a check next to these entries:

R1 - HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main,Search Page = http://www.oemji.com
R0 - HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main,Start Page = http://www.crfh.net <--if this is not a preferred start page, fix it too

R0 - HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Search,SearchAssistant = http://www.oemji.com/side_search.htm
R0 - HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Search,CustomizeSearch =
R0 - HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main,Local Page = C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM\blank.htm

R3 - Default URLSearchHook is missing

O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [antiware] C:\windows\system32\eliteswy32.exe

O16 - DPF: {99802379-7362-40E2-9D28-8A3B9AF880B7} - http://hotsearchbar.com/toolbar2/winhot32.cab

O16 - DPF: {EB623776-492A-42CA-9571-3AA39F58530B} - http://www.alwaysupdatednews.com/install/aun_0011.exe


After you have ticked the above entries, close All other open windows, including this one
Leave Hijackthis open and click FIX CHECKED
OK the prompt and exit Hijackthis

RESTART your computer into Safe mode
You can do this by tapping the F8 key as the system is bootin up

In safe find and delete these files if they exist
C:\WINDOWS\system\ccgeavsi.exe <--file
C:\windows\system32\eliteswy32.exe <--file

Double click on Elite.reg and allow it to merge to the registry

Restart back to Normal mode

Access Internet Options via Control Panel
Under the Programs tab "Reset Web Settings"
Under the General tab---Delete files + offline content---Also Reset home page

Post back a fresh hijackthis log afterwards

Do you want to post your own logs from FRST?

Print this out or save too a Notepad file on the desktop

Reboot back into safe mode

Look for and delete any of these folders and delete if found
C:\WINDOWS\EliteBar
C:\WINDOWS\EliteToolBar
or this one
EliteSideBar


Look for these files and delete them if found
C:\Winupdate.exe
C:\Ed.exe.
and this one
C:\windows\system32\eliteswy32.exe

Take a look for any of these files in your C:\Windows\System32 folder
or your C:\Windows folder and remove if found
You may not find them, but take a look, there are many but they shouldn't be hard to track down as they should all be in about the same location

Bkmsf32.dat
Winjnp32.exe
Winoko.exe
winbjd32.exe
winbjs32.exe
windcg32.exe
winett32.exe
wingvj32.exe
winhdv32.exe
winisp32.exe
winked32.exe
winlda32.exe
winldm32.exe
winmop32.exe
winnpn32.exe
winrjc32.exe
winrjr32.exe
wintux32.exe
winvdp32.exe
winved32.exe
winvji32.exe
winwoe32.exe
winxie32.exe
winxzn32.exe
winzhh32.exe
winztd32.exe
winkbe32.exe
winncu32.exe
winwvx32.exe
winzvs32.exe
wincsc32.exe
windpp32.exe
winoko32.exe
winfvy32.exe
winhih32.exe
winkbn32.exe


Let me know if you see any of them

Merge Elite.reg again

Do another scan with hijackthis in safe mode and fix checked this entry
O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [antiware] C:\windows\system32\eliteswy32.exe

Restart back to Normal mode

Open Hijackthis>>Open Misc tools>>Open Hosts file manager

Delete any lines Below
127.0.0.1 localhost <--don't delete this and nothing above
But only any below that entry you didn't add yourself or don't recognize

Post back a fresh Hijackthis log afterwards

Looks good, how's everything?

If everything is running better

You should disable system restore---restart your computer--enable system restore
This will clear all your restore points and ensure you don't restore any nasties
Once reenabled it will create a fresh restore point
How to Disable and Re-enable System Restore feature

Once back in Windows and System Restore is reenabled

You should set up protection against future attacks

SpywareBlaster by JavaCool---will block bad ActiveX and malevolent cookies
Install---Check for Updates---Enable all protection
http://www.javacoolsoftware.com/spywareblaster.html

IE-Spyad---IE-SPYAD puts over 5000 sites in your restricted zone so you'll be protected when you visit innocent-looking sites that aren't actually innocent at all.
Here is a tutorial and download link
TUTORIAL==Link to Tutorial
Download link

With both, Check for updates every couple of weeks
Keep the link to IE-Spyad bookmarked so you can check for updates
SpywareBlaster, after every update just simply enable all protection

Do you want to post your own logs from FRST?

Wow!! awesome! thanks a bunch- currently there are no bugs at all!  Thankyou for responding very quickly and helping me!  It was so much easier when you helped then trying to read other forums and better then spending a bunch of minutes trying to run spysweeper or spybot to kill them!! Thankyou for the help!!
