I have a feeling that when you save it as fix.txt, if you open it
You have too many spaces in it, just like your hijackthis log
There should only be a single space between
Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00 and the rest of the contents
Is Word wrap checked under Format?
If it is, uncheck it then save it and try again

The .reg file should have an icon that looks like some cubes
Comodo is controlling applications which have control over the Net

I have no idea why export.bat is not working on your end anymore

Here is the HIJACKTHIS.log It was being opened with WORDPAD, I have changed it to open with NOTEPAD. Here it is. Wordwrap is unchecked.

Hi I was able to download and run fix.reg, so this part is done.

This is the contents of export.bat (no wordwrap)
regedit /e Export.txt "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\SharedAccess\Parameters\FirewallPolicy\StandardProfile\AuthorizedApplications\List"

I will delete and redo it.

Apologies, Export.bat is working. But it dropped the result in amongst some other icons and I just didn't see it.
Here it is :-

Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\SharedAccess\Parameters\FirewallPolicy\StandardProfile\AuthorizedApplications\List]

Don't worry about fix.reg
I have a feeling that when you save it as fix.txt, if you open it
You have too many spaces in it, just like your hijackthis log
There should only be a single space between
Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00 and the rest of the contents
Is Word wrap checked under Format?
If it is, uncheck it then save it and try again

The .reg file should have an icon that looks like some cubes
Comodo is controlling applications which have control over the Net

I have no idea why export.bat is not working on your end anymore
It may of got corrupt, or again, right click>>edit.>>Uncheck word wrap

Strange I posted a reply an hour ago and it has disappeared...

I post export.txt again

Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\SharedAccess\Parameters\FirewallPolicy\StandardProfile\AuthorizedApplications\List]
"C:\\Program Files\\Skype\\Phone\\Skype.exe"="C:\\Program Files\\Skype\\Phone\\Skype.exe:*:Enabled:Skype"

It's really too hard reading that hijackthis log with the spaces
Can you ensure you post it back with no spaces please
Format>>uncheck word wrap

Again, with Comodo protecting you and allowing/disallowing applications, you are safe
If you resort back to the Windows Firewall you will be prompted for access to the net. I hope you stick with Comodo however

Can you do the following please
Do a "System scan only" with Hijackthis and put a check next to these entries:

R3 - URLSearchHook: Yahoo! Toolbar - {EF99BD32-C1FB-11D2-892F-0090271D4F88} - (no file)
O14 - IERESET.INF: START_PAGE_URL=
O20 - Winlogon Notify: WRNotifier - WRLogonNTF.dll (file missing)

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

Reboot the computer

Back in windows
Post one last hijackthis log

I cannot use cut/copy to send the results. I have uploaded the two report files instead.

This is getting frustrating! Can you please tell me how this type of Malware is getting into the PC, Is it Java script, active X, a program, web browsing , how?

Then at least I know what I am up against.

Thanks!

Your hijackthis looks good
You appear to be a Maxthlon browser user
I've never used it, but it does use the IE Engine
Ensure you have all updates for Maxthlon
It's important to keep up to date on the latest High Priority updates from Microsoft Windows Updates
Don't check yet, I want to ensure your clean

Also, you may be networked with other machines, are they clean of malware?
You must also be careful what you download with any filesharing programs!
Careful of any emails with Attachments!

Can you do me a favor, Open the Windows Firewall in the Control Panel
It should be OFF, as you have Comodo installed
Open the Exceptions tab
Under Programs and Services allowed
Can you let me know which have a check in it
The ones related to "Microsoft Update" should be highlighted and Deleted

Reboot the computer afterwards

Back in Windows, one more scanner please
Download and save too your root directory
In your case, This will be the C:\ directory
F-Secure Blacklight(blbeta.exe)
So you will now have C:\blbeta.exe
* Open a command window. (Start>Run and type: cmd)
* Copy paste or type the following in the command window:

C:\blbeta.exe /expert

* Accept the user agreement.
* Click Scan.
* After the scan finishes, click on Next, then Exit.
Do not rename any files if found by blacklight, I need to see the log

BlackLight will create a log with the name "fsbl-xxxxxxx.log".
Can you post back here the contents of C:\"fsbl-xxxxxxx.log".

Can you post that log along with a fresh hijackthis log please

DON'T quote me when replying back, your using up your allotted space in a reply doing so

GrahamG · « **Reply #29 on:** December 08, 2006, 02:22:58 PM »

For whatever reason I cannot cut/paste the notepad results into this forum. So it is uploaded - sorry.
I have looked at the F-secure site. Perhaps this is what I need to purchase.
Because the malware got past the windows firewall, and the Avast! virus and also AD-Aware.
Do you have an opinion? I just want to get this PC clean and have the best cahce of keeping it that way.
Thanks G.

I dont do much web browsing but I did do some research about web browsers. You should look at Maxthlon it is an excellent tabbed browser using the IE engine. It is significantly better than IE6 or 7 with built in ad-blocker etc.

I think we got it all, but we must remove some entries in the registry

Can you navigate to the following key in the registry
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\SharedAccess\Parameters\FirewallPolicy\StandardProfile\AuthorizedApplications\List

On the right hand side, left click to Highlight each of the following, one at time, then right click and select Delete

C:\WINDOWS\system32\svchost.exe
C:\DOCUME~1\HP_ADM~1\LOCALS~1\Temp\35exmodul32f.i.exe
C:\DOCUME~1\HP_ADM~1\LOCALS~1\Temp\52exinjs.t.exe
C:\DOCUME~1\HP_ADM~1\LOCALS~1\Temp\84exmodul32f.i.exe
C:\DOCUME~1\HP_ADM~1\LOCALS~1\Temp\3exinjs.t.exe

After you have done that exit the Registry
Delete Export.txt from the desktop
Ensure you Double click on Export.bat>>Post the new log from Export.txt

I dont do much web browsing but I did do some research about web browsers. You should look at Maxthlon it is an excellent tabbed browser using the IE engine. It is significantly better than IE6 or 7 with built in ad-blocker etc.

I use Mozilla Firefox as my main browser, been using it for years, still my favorite

I have looked at the F-secure site. Perhaps this is what I need to purchase.

F-Secure is a reliable Antivirus program
But I have not had problems with Avast on my other computer, it is a 98SE machine however
On a few other boxes I have I used AVG , AVIRA and
BitDefender<<This one I don't recommend as a free option, no realtime scanner
Remember, new viruses, trojans, malware are surfacing all the time, AV companies try to stay up on it
One may update before the other
The use of a good firewall is also important, you have that covered now

If you feel comfortable with a different AntiVirus, that is your option, again, many users swear by AVAST
I have links to other free ones if you would like to go that route, please, ONLY use on AV

We have added a bit more protection with SpywareBlaster
With the use of Comodo, that adds great protection
Keep Windows Defenders protections enabled

I have other recommendations, but please post the contents of Export.bat

These must have been zapped by something else, they are not in the registery anymore.

C:\WINDOWS\system32\svchost.exe
C:\DOCUME~1\HP_ADM~1\LOCALS~1\Temp\35exmodul32f.i.exe
C:\DOCUME~1\HP_ADM~1\LOCALS~1\Temp\52exinjs.t.exe
C:\DOCUME~1\HP_ADM~1\LOCALS~1\Temp\84exmodul32f.i.exe
C:\DOCUME~1\HP_ADM~1\LOCALS~1\Temp\3exinjs.t.exe

I have other recommendations, but please post the contents of Export.bat

Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\SharedAccess\Parameters\FirewallPolicy\StandardProfile\AuthorizedApplications\List]
"C:\\Program Files\\Skype\\Phone\\Skype.exe"="C:\\Program Files\\Skype\\Phone\\Skype.exe:*:Enabled:Skype"

I am just getting nervous about protection and safe guards. I have lost count of the number of cleaning utilities ran on this PC!

GrahamG · « **Reply #32 on:** December 09, 2006, 04:46:00 PM »

I have been experimenting by purposely doing some dubious web browsing (looking for crackz, serials etc). One thing that I had forgotten about is that I changed my DNS server to this one.

http://www.opendns.com/

I have to say it kicked in very well and warned me about entering certain sites, and warned me of one phishing site. So it might be of interest. I only use it because it provides a much faster DNS lookup than my normal Charter one.

I know your not using the Windows Firewall
But can we reset it back to defaults please
go to START>>RUN>>type
cmd
In the prompt copy>>paste the following below in bold

netsh firewall reset
Hit ENTER on keyboard

Exit out of there

Can you go back and disable the Windows firewall in the Control panel

Let's clear the DNS resolver cache
Go to START>>RUN>>type cmd
Hit Ok
Copy>>paste to the prompt the following in next line in bold

ipconfig /flushdns
Close down this browser window then hit ENTER on your keyboard
Exit out of there

If everything is running better
Go to START>>All Programs>>Accessories>>System Tools>>System Restore
Create a New restore point
Name it and click create
When that's done

Go to START>>RUN>>type the following
cleanmgr
Hit OK
Let if finish calculating

Select the 'More Options' tab
and click Cleanup under System Restore
This will clear all later restore points except for the one you just made

Ok the prompts, it may take a few seconds to remove old restore points
Ok again after it's ready and let it finish cleaning

With SpywareBlastser
"Check for updates every couple of weeks"
after every update just simply click the "enable protection on all unprotected items"

You may also want to add a good Hosts file
http://www.mvps.org/winhelp2002/hosts.htm
How To Download and Extract the HOSTS file:
http://www.mvps.org/winhelp2002/hosts2.htm
Repeat that proccess about once or twice a month

Stay safe

Hi, I have been away for a few day's. I have done everything you mentioned. Hopefully I am "good to go" and the PC is clean. I will be even more cautious from now on! Thanks again.

Glad to help, I'll lock this topic as your problems appear resolved
Take care Graham
