Re: Google Hi-jacker - Asked for Scans included
Hi again
Please read these instructions carefully and then print out or copy this page to Notepad in order to assist you when carrying out the fix. You should not have any open browsers or live internet connections when you are following the procedures below. Please go to: VirusTotal
Combofix Open notepad and copy/paste the text in the box below into it: Code:
http://www.techsupportforum.com/security-center/virus-trojan-spyware-help/433676-google-hi-jacker-asked-scans-included.html

![]() Referring to the picture above, drag CFScript.txt into ComboFix.exe. When finished, it shall produce a log for you. Post that log in your next reply. Do not mouseclick combofix's window whilst it's running. This may cause it to stall. When CF finishes running, the ComboFix log will open along with a message box--do not be alarmed. Using the above script, ComboFix will capture a file to submit for analysis. Ensure you are connected to the internet and click OK on the message box. Please let me know how your system is running now.

Re: Google Hi-jacker - Asked for Scans included
Hi again
I really need to see the virus total results. Please run the scan again and post back with the report. You may receive a message saying that the file has already been scanned – confirm to scan it again. I don’t see the zipped files at the receiving point – can you check for this file C:\Qoobox\ComboFix-quarantined-files.txt and post the contents please? Online Scan Establish an internet connection & perform an online scan with Internet Explorer at Kaspersky Online Scanner. Click Accept, when prompted to download and install the program files and database of malware definitions.
This animation will guide you through the process: ![]() **Note** To optimise scanning time and produce a more sensible report for review:
Note for Internet Explorer 7 users: If at any time you have trouble with the accept button of the licence, click on the Zoom tool located at the right bottom of the IE window and set the zoom to 75 %. Once the license has been accepted, reset to 100%. Please post back with the Kaspersky Log.

Re: Google Hi-jacker - Asked for Scans included
Hi again
Thanks – good to see that file is clean. How is your system running now? Clear Java Cache Go into the Control Panel and double-click the Java Icon. (looks like a coffee cup)
The files zipped by combofix are still on your system. Please visit this site and follow the instructions for uploading the C:\Qoobox\Quarantine\[4]-Submit_2009-11-26_23.17.03.zip file.

Re: Google Hi-jacker - Asked for Scans included
Hi again
Got those files – many thanks. All your logs are clean. If there are no more problems we’ll just tidy up and I’ll let you go, along with my recommendations for staying safe and secure. The following procedure will clear out the tools we've used as well as the backups and quarantines created by the fix. It will also reset your System Restore by flushing out previous restore points (which contain the infections) and create a new restore point. Referring to the image below ![]() Click Start > Run and copy/paste, or type the following bold text into the Run box and click OK: ComboFix /Uninstall Now that you are clean, to help protect your computer in the future I recommend that you get the following free programs: General Protection Spyware Blaster to help prevent spyware from installing in the first place. Spyware Guard to catch and block spyware before it can execute. Spybot - Search & Destroy with its TeaTimer option. This will provide realtime spyware & hijacker protection on your computer alongside your virus protection. You should also scan your computer with the program on a regular basis just as you would an antivirus software. A tutorial on installing & using this product can be found here. Ad-aware 2008 Free Edition Download and install Ad-Aware 2008 Free Edition. You should use this program to scan your computer on a regular basis just as you would an antivirus software in conjunction with Spybot. A tutorial on installing & using this product can be found here. SnoopFree SnoopFree is a real time monitor that notifies you when a programme wants to record your keystrokes or read your screen. Note that SnoopFree is only for XP systems. MVPS Hosts File The MVPS Hosts file replaces your current HOSTS file with one that will restrict known ad sites from serving you unsolicited advertisements. Basically, this prevents your computer from connecting to those sites by redirecting them to 127.0.0.1 which is the IP of your local computer. Note that if you use a company provided HOSTS file you should not use the MVPS HOSTS file. Alternate Browsers Try the following free alternate browsers rather than Internet Explorer Firefox Opera Chrome Maxthon Safari Firewalls A good firewall will monitor incoming and outgoing traffic. NOTE: Microsoft's Firewall for XP does not monitor outgoing traffic. If you do not have a firewall, here are 3 free ones available for personal use: Comodo Personal Firewall Sygate Personal Firewall ZoneAlarm Other Protection Winpatrol - Download and install the free version of Winpatrol. A tutorial for this product is located here: Using Winpatrol to protect your computer. Web of Trust WOT warns you about risky websites that try to scam visitors, deliver malware or send spam. Protect your computer against online threats by using WOT as your front-line layer of protection when browsing or searching in unfamiliar territory. WOT's color-coded icons show you ratings for 21 million websites, helping you avoid the dangerous sites:
ERUNT & NTREGOPT ERUNT is a programme that will create automatic backups of your Registry. These backups can be used to help restore your system in the event of a serious crash. NTREGOPT will compact and optimise your Registry, to assist the smooth running of your system. Additional Reading In light of your recent troubles, I'm sure you'll like to avoid any future infections. Please take a look at these well written articles PC Safety & Security - What Do I Need?. Making Internet Explorer Safer. Think Prevention! Have a look here if your PC is still running a bit slow Is your PC running slow...? Keep clean and safe and enjoy your computing! Please respond to this thread one more time so we can mark this thread as resolved.
