Re: new notebook - spyware infestation

Before beginning the fix, read this post completely. If there's anything that you do not understand, kindly ask your questions before proceeding. Save the following instructions in Notepad as this webpage would not be available when you're carrying out the fix.

It is IMPORTANT that you don't miss a step & perform everything in the correct order/sequence.

Before doing any fixing....

Please download the Suspicious File Packer http://www.safer-networking.org/files/sfp.zip

Unzip it to the desktop and run it.
Paste the following list of bad files into the Suspicious File Packer window:
C:\WINDOWS\system32\bpqsrdi.dll
C:\WINDOWS\system32\eswyvfl.dll
C:\WINDOWS\system32\jdzsnmj.dll
C:\WINDOWS\system32\jnhbbfuk.dll
C:\WINDOWS\system32\jspvkdql.dll
C:\WINDOWS\system32\luyhsser.dll
C:\WINDOWS\system32\nhiiuxj.dll
C:\WINDOWS\system32\rzhjmkud.dll
C:\WINDOWS\system32\winbfi32.dll
Allow SFP to pack the files. This will generate a CAB archive on your desktop.
Please submit it to this site http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/subm....php?channel=4
Please include a link to this topic in the message.

You should receive notice that the file was successfully submitted. Once it has been, you can delete the cab file created.

Open HijackThis and click on 'Do a System Scan Only'. Check the following entries if they exist (make sure you do not miss any) and click Fix Checked

O2 - BHO: (no name) - {22D4A607-B97E-2EA8-0CA2-051A936DF118} - C:\WINDOWS\system32\rnsckan.dll (file missing)
O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [xfxqeul.dll] C:\WINDOWS\system32\rundll32.exe C:\WINDOWS\system32\xfxqeul.dll,zmalub

Restart your computer and boot into Safe Mode by tapping the F8 key repeatedly until a menu shows up (and choose Safe Mode from the list). In some systems, this may be the F5 key, so try that if F8 doesn't work. Login on your usual account. Make sure to close any open browsers.
