Hidden Virus And Adware On My PC
« on: April 18, 2006, 06:24:02 AM »
PLEASE HELP. Have been trying to clean my computer of viruses and adware with no success. Just installed McAfee firewall and virus scan to protect my computer. Have deleted many viruses and adware and set firewall security to Tight. Certain adware and viruses keep reappearing. Same looking file type different names but at the same locations. I believe there are some things hidden but cannot find them. Here is the log file from Hijackthis :

A new folder will be placed in the C: folder , name it BFU
So you now have C:\BFU

Please download Brute Force Uninstaller
Reminder, choose SAVE rather than OPEN
Save this too the desktop
Once you have it saved too desktop
Then Extract (UNZIP) the contents to the (C:\BFU) folder you just made
So you now have C:\Bfu\bfu.exe

[color=\"#CC0000\"]RIGHT CLICK HERE[/color]
 and choose "Save As" (in IE it's "Save Target As") in order to download  Alcra Remover.
Save it in the folder you made earlier (c:\BFU)
So you now have C:\Bfu\alcanshorty.bfu

==Open Ewido anti-malware

Hidden Virus And Adware On My PC
« Reply #5 on: April 21, 2006, 11:41:57 PM »
*If everything is running better
Final Cleanup
We should flush all your restore points to ensure you don't restore any nasties that may be sitting idle
    Go to START>>RUN>>In the open field
    Type in
msconfig
Click OK
Click the "Launch System Restore" button
On the Left hand side click on "System Restore Settings"
Put a Check in "Turn off System Restore"
Apply it and OK out of there>>Reboot your computer
[/list]                          
Back in Windows, Go back and take the check out of "Turn off system restore"
This will reenable the System Restore feature and creates a new restore point

                 [indent][color=\"#CC0000\"]Protect yourself against Future Attacks[/color][/i][/b][/indent]
*Install  SpywareBlaster 3.5.1 by JavaCool  
    *Will block bad ActiveX Controls
    *Block Malevolent cookies in Internet Explorer and Firefox
    *Restrict actions of potentially dangerous sites in Internet Explorer
After installation, Check for updates and then click the "Enable all protection"
"Check for updates every couple of weeks"
after every update just simply click the "enable protection on all unprotected items"
                   
*Make sure your Anti-Virus software is always kept up to date and actively running in the background

*Keep up to date on Windows updates (High Priorities)
This is the most important step in keeping your system secure

*Make sure your Firewall is enabled and running
A Firewall is also very important
This provides a line of defense against someone who might try to access your computer without your permission

I would opt to hold on to CleanUp! and Ewido
Ewido will become a Limited free version in a couple weeks after installation
Still a great scanner to update and run on a monthly basis

A couple tools I wouldn't be without on my machine
Ad-Aware SE Personal 1.06 and Spybot 1.4
Do you have both?
If not, let me know and I can link you too both of them!

Stay safe  http://images.thetechguide.com/forum/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/biggrin.gif\' class=\'bbc_emoticon\' alt=\':D\' />
