Let's just keep this thread going, since it is in the correct forum.

You have an outdated version of HijackThis. Click here to get the latest version of HijackThis.

Turn off system restore by right clicking on My Computer and go to Properties->System Restore and check the box for Turn off System Restore. Click Apply and then OK. Restart your computer. After we are finished with your log file and verified that it's clean, you may turn it back on and create a new restore point.

Please download Ad-aware SE and install it if you don't have it already. Make sure it's the newest version and check for any updates before running it. Go to this site to get the plug-in for fixing VX2 variants. To run this tool, go into Ad-aware->Add-ons and select VX2 Cleaner. Then click Run Tool and OK to start it. If it's clean, it will say Status System Clean. Otherwise, you will have to click on the Clean button to remove the VX2 infection. Also make sure to customize the settings in Ad-aware for better scan results. Run the scan and fix everything that it finds.

Download CWShredder and click on Fix (it will automatically fix anything it finds for you). If it asks if you want to delete a certain random file, choose No and post that filename here.

Post a new log file when completed.

CTSNKY · 10-26-2004, 04:06 PM

Here is a web site explaining VX2: http://www.spywareguide.com/product_show.php?id=25

On to your log.....

Please print out or copy this page to Notepad. Make sure to work through the fixes in the exact order it is mentioned below. If there's anything that you don't understand, ask your question(s) before proceeding with the fixes. You should not have any open browsers when you are following the procedures below.

Go to My Computer->Tools/View->Folder Options->View tab and make sure that 'Show hidden files and folders' (or 'Show all files') is enabled. Also make sure that Display the contents of System Folders' is checked. Windows XP's search feature is a little different. When you click on 'All files and folders' on the left pane, click on the 'More advanced options' at the bottom. Make sure that Search system folders, Search hidden files and folders, and Search subfolders are checked.

Reboot into Safe Mode (hit F8 key until menu shows up).

Uninstall the following via the Add/Remove Panel (Start->(Settings)->Control Panel->Add/Remove Programs) if they exist:

HalfLemon

WildTangent - This is an online gaming package that is installed by a number of third party applications and even OEMs, ISPs and AIM. The games aspect of this is really rather cool. The being installed without you asking for it isn't cool at all. They collect information about you and your usage. We recommend uninstalling it.

Run a scan in HijackThis. Check each of the following and hit 'Fix checked' (after checking them) if they still exist (make sure not to miss any):

R1 - HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main,Search Bar = http://www.halflemon.com/search.html

Delete the following Files/Folders (delete folders if no filename is specified) according to their directory (if none, just do a search for them) and delete them if they exist:

C:\Program Files\WildTangent\
C:\Program Files\HalfLemon\

Reboot into Normal Mode and post a new HijackThis log file so we can make sure it's clean.

Orbit3 · 10-26-2004, 04:08 PM

Do i have to put it in safe modde to do this?

CTSNKY · 10-26-2004, 04:10 PM

You can try without, but there's a good chance the problem will not go away or be able to be fixed in Normal Mode. What's the problem with Safe Mode???

Orbit3 · 10-26-2004, 04:11 PM

IM really nevous doing all this, and im not sure how my computer will respond to it...

Orbit3 · 10-26-2004, 04:12 PM

But i can do it in Normal-mode?

CTSNKY · 10-26-2004, 04:18 PM

Orbit3, you can choose to follow these instructions or choose not to, it's your decision. Feel free to read thru the hundreds of other HJT posts and you will see this is common practice.

I want to help you, but only if you allow yourself to be helped.

Orbit3 · 10-26-2004, 04:19 PM

IM going to try it. you are very informative and i trust you so pleese stay on 15 minuters or so so i can do the tasks you listed. thankyou.!

Orbit3 · 10-26-2004, 04:30 PM

CTSNKY · 10-26-2004, 04:32 PM

Yes, go ahead.......you need to press that key BEFORE you see the Windows logo pop up.

I am outta here for awhile.....FYI.

Orbit3 · 10-26-2004, 04:33 PM

Thankyou! i will do that in normal mode. long as you say it is ok...

Orbit3 · 10-26-2004, 04:48 PM

Hi, i posted my hijackthis log here http://www.techsupportforum.com/show...ed=1#post99532 I was wondering if someone could look at it too. Im not sure how many people who know about hijackthis would read that post. Thankyou so much! Last edited by Orbit3 : 10-26-2004 at 01:57 PM.

You have an outdated version of HijackThis. Click here to get the latest version of HijackThis. Turn off system restore by right clicking on My Computer and go to Properties->System Restore and check the box for Turn off System Restore. Click Apply and then OK. Restart your computer. After we are finished with your log file and verified that it's clean, you may turn it back on and create a new restore point. Please download Ad-aware SE and install it if you don't have it already. Make sure it's the newest version and check for any updates before running it. Go to this site to get the plug-in for fixing VX2 variants. To run this tool, go into Ad-aware->Add-ons and select VX2 Cleaner. Then click Run Tool and OK to start it. If it's clean, it will say Status System Clean. Otherwise, you will have to click on the Clean button to remove the VX2 infection. Also make sure to customize the settings in Ad-aware for better scan results. Run the scan and fix everything that it finds. Download CWShredder and click on Fix (it will automatically fix anything it finds for you). If it asks if you want to delete a certain random file, choose No and post that filename here. Post a new log file when completed. __________________ GO BIG BLUE!!

CTSNKY Knower of all that is MS Join Date: Aug 2004 Location: Independence, KY Posts: 10,755 OS: (multiple machines) 95, 98, 2K & XP Home & Pro	Here is a web site explaining VX2: http://www.spywareguide.com/product_show.php?id=25 On to your log..... Please print out or copy this page to Notepad. Make sure to work through the fixes in the exact order it is mentioned below. If there's anything that you don't understand, ask your question(s) before proceeding with the fixes. You should not have any open browsers when you are following the procedures below. Go to My Computer->Tools/View->Folder Options->View tab and make sure that 'Show hidden files and folders' (or 'Show all files') is enabled. Also make sure that Display the contents of System Folders' is checked. Windows XP's search feature is a little different. When you click on 'All files and folders' on the left pane, click on the 'More advanced options' at the bottom. Make sure that Search system folders, Search hidden files and folders, and Search subfolders are checked. Reboot into Safe Mode (hit F8 key until menu shows up). Uninstall the following via the Add/Remove Panel (Start->(Settings)->Control Panel->Add/Remove Programs) if they exist: HalfLemon WildTangent - This is an online gaming package that is installed by a number of third party applications and even OEMs, ISPs and AIM. The games aspect of this is really rather cool. The being installed without you asking for it isn't cool at all. They collect information about you and your usage. We recommend uninstalling it. Run a scan in HijackThis. Check each of the following and hit 'Fix checked' (after checking them) if they still exist (make sure not to miss any): R1 - HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main,Search Bar = http://www.halflemon.com/search.html R1 - HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main,Search Page = http://www.halflemon.com/search.html R0 - HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Search,SearchAssistant = http://www.halflemon.com/search.html R0 - HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Search,CustomizeSearch = R3 - URLSearchHook: SearchHook Class - {D94AAA2A-C415-42E3-82B6-49FAB4EBFFE9} - C:\PROGRA~1\HALFLE~1\HALFLE~1.DLL O9 - Extra button: Related - {c95fe080-8f5d-11d2-a20b-00aa003c157a} - C:\WINDOWS\web\related.htm O9 - Extra 'Tools' menuitem: Show &Related Links - {c95fe080-8f5d-11d2-a20b-00aa003c157a} - C:\WINDOWS\web\related.htm O16 - DPF: {AB29A544-D6B4-4E36-A1F8-D3E34FC7B00A} - http://install.wildtangent.com/bgn/...kII/install.cab O16 - DPF: {D94AAA2A-C415-42E3-82B6-49FAB4EBFFE9} (SearchHook Class) - http://www.halflemon.com/Halflemon.cab Delete the following Files/Folders (delete folders if no filename is specified) according to their directory (if none, just do a search for them) and delete them if they exist: C:\Program Files\WildTangent\ C:\Program Files\HalfLemon\ Reboot into Normal Mode and post a new HijackThis log file so we can make sure it's clean. __________________ GO BIG BLUE!!

What's the problem with Safe Mode??? __________________ GO BIG BLUE!!

Feel free to read thru the hundreds of other HJT posts and you will see this is common practice. I want to help you, but only if you allow yourself to be helped. __________________ GO BIG BLUE!!
