Re: cannot install any spyware removing software
I have uninstalled AVG and am trying to install active virus shield, but it keeps saying "installation ended prematurely because of an error".

Re: cannot install any spyware removing software
Hi j1477,

Could you delete your current copy of Flash Disinfector, download a new copy, and run it?

There should be some evidence of the tool running successfully, and I don’t see it in your logs.

There is no longer any active malware on your system. Just some leftovers to take care of.

OK, let’s do this next.

Please open Notepad (Start -> Run -> type notepad in the Open field -> OK) and copy and paste the text present inside the code box below (don't forget to copy and paste REGEDIT4 as well):

Code:
REGEDIT4

[-HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\MountPoints2\{20941b4c-de19-11db-8e3e-4c0010523213}]

[-HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\MountPoints2\{5bd69b7e-d51a-11db-8e11-9a96f8d92f88}]
Save this as fix.reg and change the "Save as type" to "All Files" and place it on your desktop.

It should look like this:

Double-click on it and when it asks you if you want to merge the contents to the registry, click "Yes" or "OK". You should receive a message that it was successful.

In case you still are unsure on how to create a REG file, please take a look HERE with screenshots.


NEXT:

Please delete these FOLDERS:

C:\Program Files\iMesh
C:\Program Files\WinMX Music


NEXT:

For AVS problem, try installing it in Safe Mode and see what happens.

Please reboot your computer into Safe Mode by doing the following:
  • Reboot your computer.
  • After hearing your computer beep once during startup, but just before the Windows icon appears, begin tapping the F8 key on your keyboard. If you begin tapping the F8 key too soon, some computers display a "keyboard error" message. To resolve this, reboot the computer and try again.
  • Instead of Windows loading as normal, a menu should appear.
  • Using the arrow keys on the keyboard, scroll to and select the "Safe Mode" menu item, and then press "Enter".

For additional help in booting into Safe Mode, see the following site:
http://www.pchell.com/support/safemode.shtml

Let me know how things go.


NEXT:

Please post a new HijackThis log and a new ComboFix log in your next reply. Also, please let me know of any persistent problems.

Cheers!
~ Sempurna

Re: cannot install any spyware removing software
Hey Sempurna

I couldn't install avs in safe mode, it says "The windows installer service could not be accessed. This can occur if you're running windows in safe mode, or if the windows installer is not correctly installed" :( . So right now, I have no antivirus in my pc. By the way, I like avg since all other virus guards slow down my pc, since I only have 128M RAM. Should I reinstall AVG?

Re: cannot install any spyware removing software
By the way, I did download flash disinfector again, and ran it. This time it said "done successfully" :)

Re: cannot install any spyware removing software
Hi j1477,

Yep, your logs show that Flash Disinfector ran to completion successfully. Well done!

Just some loose ends to tie up, and then we can let you go home.

Your version of Sun Java is out-of-date. Older versions have vulnerabilities that malware can use to infect your system. Please follow these steps to remove older Java version components and update:
  • CLICK HERE to download the offline installer.
    • Select "Java Runtime Environment (JRE) 6u1" and click the "Download" button to the right.
    • Check the box that says "Accept License Agreement".
    • Click on the link to download "Windows Offline Installation, Multi-language".
    • Save the file to your desktop.
  • Next, uninstall your currently installed version from Add/Remove Programs.
  • If you have older versions listed uninstall them also. If you simply update to the new version it leaves the older versions still installed, complete with previous vulnerabilities.
  • Examples of older versions in Add/Remove Programs:
    • Java 2 Runtime Environment, SE v1.4.2
    • J2SE Runtime Environment 5.0
    • J2SE Runtime Environment 5.0 Update 2
  • Reboot your system.
  • Install the new version by double-clicking on the file you downloaded.


NEXT:

Everything looks great --- your HijackThis log appears to be clean.

Please take some time reading this list; it is full of great tools and utilities to help you understand how you got infected and how to keep from getting infected again.
  • Windows Updates (a must!)
    It is very important to make sure that both Internet Explorer and Windows are kept current with the latest critical security patches from Microsoft. You can either click on the link above and bookmark the updates page, or open Internet Explorer, then go to the Tools menu -> Windows Update, and follow the online instructions from there.

  • Firewall (a must!)
    It is definitely a must have. Some good FREE versions are Comodo, Outpost, or ZoneAlarm.
    Note: You must only use 1 (one) firewall at a time because if you have 2 or more firewalls running at the same time, they will conflict with each other and make your security less reliable. Please also remember to turn off Windows Firewall once you have installed a new firewall.

  • Anti-Virus (a must!)
    It is also a must have. I would recommend this excellent and FREE program, Active Virus Shield Powered by Kaspersky (NOTE: please do NOT install the Security Toolbar that comes with it).
    Other good and FREE alternatives are AntiVir, Avast!, and AVG.
    Note: You must only use 1 (one) AV at a time because if you have 2 or more AVs running at the same time, they will conflict with each other and make your security less reliable.

  • SpywareBlaster
    This is a great FREE prevention tool to keep nasties from installing on your system.
    Tutorial: How to use!
