Welcome to TSF.

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.

Please download Ewido Security Suite at http://www.ewido.net/en/download/.

1. Install Ewido Security Suite.
2. When installing, under 'Additional Options' uncheck:
* Install background guard
* Install scan via context menu
3. Launch Ewido, there should be an icon on your desktop, double click it.
4. The program will now open to the main screen.
5. When you run Ewido for the first time, you will get a warning 'Database could not be found!'. Click OK. We will fix this in a moment.
6. You will need to update Ewido to the latest definition files.
* On the left hand side of the main screen click update.
* Then click on Start Update.
7. The update will start and a progress bar will show the updates being installed. The status bar at the bottom will display 'Update successful'.
8. Exit Ewido. DO NOT scan yet.

If you are having problems with the updater, you can go to http://www.ewido.net/en/download/updates/ to update manually.

Download CleanUp! http://cleanup.stevengould.org/ (Alternate Link if main link don't work - http://www.greyknight17.com/spy/CleanUp.exe ) and install it. Don't run it yet.

Restart your computer and boot into Safe Mode (if you don't know how, go to http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/foru...howtutorial=61 ).

CleanUp! deletes EVERYTHING out of your temp/temporary folders, it does not make backups. If you have any documents or programs that are saved in any Temporary Folders, please make a backup of these before running CleanUp!. Run CleanUp! and click on the Options button. Uncheck 'Scan local drives for temporary files'. Also uncheck those two Newsgroup entries if you don't want to delete them. Click OK and then click on the CleanUp! button. Let it run. After it's done, choose Yes to logoff.

Now open Ewido and do a scan on your system.

* Click on scanner.
* Click on 'Complete System Scan' and the scan will begin.
* While the scan is in progress you will be prompted to clean the first infected file it finds. Choose 'Remove', then put a check next to 'Perform action on all infections' in the left corner of the box so you don't have to sit and watch Ewido the whole time. Click OK.
Exit Ewido when it's done.

Run a scan in HijackThis. Check each of the following if they still exist and hit 'Fix Checked' after you check the last one:

R3 - URLSearchHook: (no name) - {1B52B029-7EED-2016-B99A-2530F3A088B7} - C:\WINDOWS\system32\igotjdfj.dll
O2 - BHO: (no name) - {1B52B029-7EED-2016-B99A-2530F3A088B7} - C:\WINDOWS\system32\igotjdfj.dll
O2 - BHO: (no name) - {1B89465D-C36A-0995-8256-16550CAB2C3F} - C:\WINDOWS\System32\phma.dll (file missing)
O2 - BHO: (no name) - {1F8B4A59-973B-5D99-D754-16550CA52969} - C:\WINDOWS\System32\thxlvix.dll (file missing)
O4 - HKCU\..\Run: [Yaljkcv] C:\WINDOWS\system32\w?nspool.exe
O4 - HKCU\..\Run: [Usrr] "C:\Program Files\etea\rpen.exe" -vt rbnd


Locate and delete the following:

C:\WINDOWS\system32\igotjdfj.dll
C:\WINDOWS\System32\phma.dll
C:\WINDOWS\System32\thxlvix.dll
C:\Program Files\etea\


Go go C:\WINDOWS\system32\ and look for a file called w?nspool.exe (or possible winspool.exe). If you see two winspool.exe files, right click on them and go to Properties to see which one is the real one. The fake one should be created recently and probably won't say it's from Microsoft.

Restart your computer and boot back to Safe Mode again. Run Ewido scan again...

* Once the scan has completed, there will be a button located on the bottom of the screen named 'Save report'.
* Click 'Save report'.
* Save the report to your desktop.

Restart your computer to get back to Normal Mode. Post the Ewido report and a new HijackThis log here.

the only thing is it is a little slow when you come to the welcome screen and log on to a user it takes about 20 seconds to go to that persons desktop. but it is getting better every time i start up but if you see something let me know

Thanks

In order to speed up a users startup, we would need to see a log from each user account. Which, lets be honest, ig going to be a tedious task.

You're clean, and free to go.

However, there still remains a few bits of housekeeping ...

Reset hidden/system files and folders
  • Click Start.
  • Open My Computer.
  • Select the Tools menu and click Folder Options.
  • Select the View tab.
  • Deselect the Show hidden files and folders option.
  • Select the Hide file extensions for known types option.
  • Select the Hide protected operating system files option.
  • Click Yes to confirm.
  • Click OK.

Clear Java Cache
  1. Click Start >Settings>Control Panel
  2. Click the Java Plugin Icon
  3. Click the Cache tab
  4. Click the Clear button and click OK to confirm
Note: Please repeat this procedure for each "Java Plugin" button in your Control Panel

Follow the instructions outlined here to clear Sun Java's cache.


Create a new System Restore point
  • click Start >> Run - type SYSDM.CPL & press Enter
  • select the System Restore Tab
