Please post the top header of your HJT log. It contains information which we require.


While you're at it, launch Notepad, and copy/paste the box below into a new text file.
Save it as FindFile.bat and save it on your Desktop.
Quote:
dir C:\WINDOWS\System32\?hkntfs.exe /a h > files.txt notepad files.txt
Locate FindFile.bat on your Desktop and double-click on it.
It will open Notepad with some text in it. Please post the text here.

Hello and Welcome

Please subscribe to this thread to get immediate notification of fixes as soon as they are posted.


* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *


Please download these additional files/programs. Do not run them until instructed to do so.
Unless otherwise stated, they should be stored in same directory as the HiJackThis program.

CleanUp.exe - Install.

'UNPLUG'/DISCONNECT YOUR COMPUTER FROM THE INTERNET WHEN YOU HAVE FINISHED DOWNLOADING


This webpage would not be available when you're carrying out the fix. Please save the following instructions in Notepad. I have customed my instructions on the assumption that you are using Notepad. It may lead to some confusion should you choose to do otherwise.

If there's anything that you don't understand, kindly ask your questions before proceeding with the fixes. There should not be any opened browsers when you are carrying out the procedures below.


IT IS IMPORTANT THAT YOU DON'T MISS A STEP & PERFORM EVERYTHING IN THE RIGHT ORDER.


* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *


Run a scan with HiJackThis & select/tick the following & click "Fix checked" :

O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [XIM] c:\documents and settings\davitt conley\local settings\temp\XIM.exe
O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [t] c:\documents and settings\davitt conley\local settings\temp\t.exe
O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [hfvS45] C:\documents and settings\davitt conley\local settings\temp\hfvS45.exe
O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [sQzAeZ] c:\documents and settings\davitt conley\local settings\temp\sQzAeZ.exe
O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [pDayY] c:\documents and settings\davitt conley\local settings\temp\pDayY.exe
O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [fZc] c:\documents and settings\davitt conley\local settings\temp\fZc.exe
O4 - HKCU\..\Run: [Bwvl] C:\WINDOWS\System32\?hkntfs.exe
O4 - HKCU\..\Run: [Skdku] C:\WINDOWS\system32\??anregw.exe
O4 - HKCU\..\Run: [Osus] "C:\Program Files\htwu\rrup.exe" -vt ndrv



* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *


If you have not done so already, please enable the viewing of Hidden files
From Windows Explorer, go to Tools>Folder Options> View tab.
  • Tick - Show hidden files and folder
  • Untick - Hide file extensions for known types
  • Untick - Hide protected operating system files
Click Yes to confirm & then click OK

Locate and delete the following folders, if present:
  • C:\Program Files\htwu\
Locate and delete the following files:
  • C:\WINDOWS\system32\??anregw.exe ( ?? can mean any alphabet but it's probably scanregw)

* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *


Run Cleanup! using the following configuration:

1. Click Options...
2. Set the slider to Standard CleanUp!
3. Uncheck the following:
  • Delete Newsgroup cache
  • Delete Newsgroup Subscriptions
  • Scan local drives for temporary files
4. Click OK
5. Press the CleanUp! button to start the program. Reboot/logoff when prompted.
* CleanUp! will not create any backups!!


* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *


Perform an online scan with Internet Explorer at one of the following sites:Take note the names and locations of any file it detects but fails to clean.
* Turn off the real time scanner of any existing antivirus program while performing the online scan


* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *


Download Trend Micro™ Anti-Spyware (by clicking the "Scan and Clean your PC" button).
  • Double-click the tmas-web-scan.exe icon
  • It will say "Loading TrendMicro definitions".
  • Click "Start Scan"
After it's done scanning, click "Scan Results"
  • Make sure all items found have a check next to them, then click "Clean Threats Now".
  • Click Exit.
Reboot your computer. I then need you to repeat the same procedure above again... using the TrendMicro tool. I need the log from the second scan/clean...NOT the first...as this will contain what’s left in the system.

In place of the TrendMicro icon will be a text file called "Antispyware.log", please double-click that log and copy the entire contents and paste them here.


* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *


In your next post, please include fresh logs from:
  1. HiJackThis
  2. Online scan
  3. Antispyware.log
Please provide details of any problems you encountered whilst performing the above steps & update us on how the computer behaves now

Downloaded Application...
Completed initial HJT fix...

when I tried to delete
C:\WINDOWS\system32\??anregw.exe ( ?? can mean any alphabet but it's probably scanregw) (it was scanregw)

I got an error message that read:
Cannot delete scanregw: Access is denied
Please make sure that the disk is not full or write protected and that the file is not currently in use...

Please Advise before I move on

Thank You

Worked around it...restarted windows and then was able to delete it on reboot...

Followed most recent instructions using HJT (Start HiJackThis & go to Config>Misc Tools> Open process manager
Select the following and click Kill process one at a time.
C:\WINDOWS\system32\??anregw.exe )

and the process was not there...

Parasite KILLED!!!!!

Disconnecting from Internet and continuing...

LOL.. Patience is a much sought after virtue.

I once had a user who spent 10 hours scanning his large overly large hard drives.

Overall the popups are gone and IE is running quite a bit faster!!! Startup is WAAAAAAAAAY faster and my notebook seems to be in good shape overall.
One minor problem has crept up however. When I shut down Windows and the computer I can get Windows to shut down normally but then the computer goes to a blue screen and I have to press the power button to get the computer to turn off...on restart it powers up normally but blue screen's always freak me out....Any Suggestions???

Thank you for your help...please advise of anything else I may need to do...

LOL..Don't tell me it took you so long to complete the Panda scan. You must have really large drives.

Blue screens can be attributed to many reasons. It's best described by this article.

While TeaTimer is an excellent tool for the prevention of spyware, it can sometimes prevent HijackThis from fixing certain things.
Please disable TeaTimer for now until you are clean. TeaTimer can be re-activated once your HijackThis log is clean.
  • Open Spybot Search & Destroy.
  • In the Mode menu click "Advanced mode" if not already selected.
  • Choose [Yes] at the Warning prompt.
  • Expand the [Tools] menu.
  • Click [Resident].
  • Uncheck the Resident "TeaTimer" (Protection of overall system settings) active. box.
  • In the File menu click [Exit] to exit Spybot Search & Destroy.


Fix this entry with HijackThis:

O4 - HKCU\..\Run: [Osus] "C:\Program Files\htwu\rrup.exe" -vt ndrv


Download & launch KillBox v2.0.0.175.exe (it's important that you get version v2.0.0.175)

Select the following options:
  • Standard File Kill
  • End Explorer Shell While Killing File
  • Unregister DLL (If available)]
Select all the filenames listed below & then right-click & select Copy
  • C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM32\stlb2.xml
    C:\WINDOWS\system32\D0CE0C16B1.DLL
    C:\WINDOWS\system32\e6f1873b.dll
* Go to the File menu, and choose Paste from Clipboard
* Click the RED X button.

Quote:
If you receive a message such as: "Component 'MsComCtl.ocx' or one of its dependencies not correctly registered: a file is missing or invalid." when trying to run TheKillbox, download and run missingfilesetup.exe. Then try Killbox again.
Post a new HJT log after this. Let me know if you still have trouble with your machine.

Computer is running well despite shutdown problem that persists...Windows shuts down correctly then computer goes to a solid blue screen and does not power off automatically...

I also noticed that on run of HJT after re-boot
O4 - HKCU\..\Run: [Osus] "C:\Program Files\htwu\rrup.exe" -vt ndrv
is still present...

Please advise anything else I need to do...

Thank You

Looks like we need to dig deep to find this one.

Please download SilentRunners.vbs - Right click & choose Save As... SilentRunners.vbs

Before proceeding, disable any anti-virus or anti-spyware programs that may block/disable scripts
Double-click SilentRunners.vbs to run it. This will take a few minutes.
When it's done, you'll receive the prompt "All Done!". It will create a file called "Startup Programs". Post ALL its contents here in your next reply.


Download StartDreck

Unzip to its own folder and start the program:
Press 'Config'
Press 'mark all'

Uncheck the following boxes only:
System/Running Process -> List Modules
System/Drivers -> NT Services
System/Drivers -> NT Kernel- and FS-drivers
Press 'OK'

Press 'Save' and select the location to save the log file (default is the same folder as the application)


Go to HijackThis> Config> Misc Tools
Checkmark/tick 'list also minor sections (full)'
Click the 'Generate StartupList log' button
Post the log in your next reply

Do a search & tell me if this file still exist - C:\Program Files\htwu\rrup.exe

If not, disable Tea timer & HJT fix the entry:

O4 - HKCU\..\Run: [Osus] "C:\Program Files\htwu\rrup.exe" -vt ndrv


After you have done so, run HJT again & check if the entry has returned.

If not, reboot & show me a new HJT log


PS..have you closed your thread at Tom Coyote?

Please re-enable Tea Timer. You can start a new thread at the hardware forum regarding the BSODs.

Now that your system is clean, please follow these simple steps in order to keep your computer clean and secure:

  1. CLEAR & RESET SYSTEM RESTORE'S CACHE
    Go to Start >> Run - type control sysdm.cpl,,4 & press Enter
    • Tick on the checkbox - Turn off System Restore on all drives
    • Click Apply
    Turn it back 'On' by unticking the same checkbox & click OK


  2. DISABLE THE VIEWING OF SYSTEM FILES
    From Windows Explorer, go to Tools>Folder Options> View tab.
    • Untick - Show hidden files and folder
    • Tick - Hide file extensions for known types
    • Tick - Hide protected operating system files
    Click Yes to confirm & then click OK


  3. SECURING INTERNET EXPLORER
    From within Internet Explorer click on the Tools menu and then click on Internet Options.
    • Select the Security tab
      • Click once on the Internet icon so it becomes highlighted.
      • Select Custom Level .
        • Change 'Download signed ActiveX controls' to Prompt
        • Change 'Download unsigned ActiveX controls' to Disable
        • Change 'Initialize and script ActiveX controls not marked as safe' to Disable
        • Change 'Installation of desktop items' to Prompt
        • Change 'Launching programs and files in an IFRAME' to Prompt
        • Change 'Navigate sub-frames across different domains' to Prompt
        • When all these changes have been made, click on the OK button.
      • If it prompts you as to whether or not you want to save the settings, press the Yes button.
    • Select OK to exit the Internet Properties page.


  4. ANTIVIRUS SOFTWARE
    It is very important that you have anti-virus software running on your machine. This alone can save you a lot of trouble with malware in the future.

    See this link for a listing of some online & their stand-alone antivirus programs:

    Virus, Spyware, and Malware Protection and Removal Resources

    It is imperative that you update your Antivirus software at least once a week (Even more if you wish). If you do not update your antivirus software then it will not be able to catch any of the new variants that may come out.


  5. FIREWALL
    Without a firewall your computer is succeptible to being hacked and taken over. Simply using a Firewall in its default configuration can lower your risk greatly. A tutorial on Firewalls and a listing of some available ones can be found here.


  6. Microsoft Windows Update
    Visit windowsupdate.com regularly. This will ensure your computer always has the latest security updates. If there are new updates to install, install them immediately, reboot your computer, and revisit the site until there are no more critical updates.


  7. SPYBOT - SEARCH & DESTROY
    Download and install 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


  8. AD-AWARE
    Download and install Ad-Aware. 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


  9. SPYWAREBLASTER
    SpywareBlaster prevents the installation of malicious ActiveX, adware, browser hijackers, dialers, and other potentially unwanted software. Blocks spyware/tracking cookies & restricts the actions of potentially unwanted sites.

    Unlike other programs, SpywareBlaster does not have to remain running in the background. A tutorial on installing & using this product can be found here


  10. IE-SPYAD
    IE/Spyad places more than 4000 dubious websites and domains in the IE Restricted list. This severely impair attempts to infect your system. It basically prevents any downloads (Cookies etc) from the sites listed, although you will still be able to connect to the sites. A tutorial on installing this product can be found here


  11. MVPS HOST FILE
    The MVPS Hosts file replaces your current HOSTS file with one that will restrict known ad sites form serving you unsolicited advertisements. Basically, this prevents your coputer from connecting to those sites by redirecting them to 127.0.0.1 which is the IP of your local computer. It can be downloaded here - MVPS Hosts file

Update all these programs regularly. Make sure you update all the programs I have listed regularly. Without regular updates you WILL NOT be protected when new malicious programs are released.

Follow this list and your potential for being infected again will reduce dramatically. Here are some additional utilities that will further enhance your safety.
  • Trillian or Miranda-IM - These are Malware free Instant Messenger programs which allow you to connect to multiple IM services in one program! (AOL, Yahoo, ICQ, IRC, MSN)

  • Weather Watcher - Free taskbar weather program that is free, malware free, and resource light.

  • Firefox - Use this alternate browser. Whilst Internet Explorer is not a bad browser, almost every exploit crafted is targeted to take advantage of an IE weakness.

  • Sun's Java - It's much more secure than Microsoft's Java Virtual Machine.

  • Google Toolbar - Get the free google toolbar to help stop pop up windows.

  • CleanUP! - Cleans temporary files from IE and Windows, empties the recycle bin and more. Great tool to help speed up your computer and knock out those nasties that like to reside in the temp folders.

  • ERUNT - A useful freeware utility for users of Windows 2000/XP. It's made up of two parts - ERUNT & NTREGOPT.

    ERUNT will create daily complete backups of your computer's Registry. Whilst System Restore does the same thing, a corrupt registry file may prevent Windows from booting & this effectively renders disables System Restore. With ERUNT, you're able to restore the damaged Registry.

    NTREGOPT works by recreating each registry hive "from scratch", thus removing any slack space that may be left from previously modified or deleted keys. In other words, it compacts the Registry to a small size which allows Windows to load & perform faster.

  • Winpatrol - Download and install the free version of Winpatrol.
    A tutorial for this product is located here:
    Using Winpatrol to protect your computer from malicious software

To find out more information about how you got infected in the first place and some great guidelines to follow to prevent future infections you can read this article by Tony Klein

After doing all these, your system will be optimised against future threats.

It's okay to delete the Hijack This folder in a couple weeks if everything is working okay.
Have a safe & happy computing day.

Please respond to this thread one more time so we can mark this thread as resolved.
