Hello,

We have a bit more to do.

Please copy this page to Notepad and save to your desktop for reference as you will not have any browsers open while you are carrying out portions of these instructions.

It is IMPORTANT that you don't miss a step & perform everything in the correct order/sequence.

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

Download and unzip BFUzip from http://www.merijn.org/files/bfu.zip
Run the program and click the Web button as shown here:


Use this URL to copy into the address bar of the Download script window:

http://metallica.geekstogo.com/MediaGateway.BFU

Make sure all IE windows are closed.

Execute the script by clicking the Execute button.

--------------------------------------------------------------------

Download Blockrem from HERE

• Unzip it to its own folder on your desktop.
• Boot your computer to safe mode by rebooting and tapping the F8 button repeatedly until it brings up a boot menu.
  From that menu, select Safe Mode by using the arrow keys to highlight it then pressing enter.
• Once in safe mode open the Blockrem folder on your desktop and double-click blockrem.bat (this is the file with the gear icon) to run it.
• Once it is running please follow the onscreen instructions.

--------------------------------------------------------------------

Navigate to and delete the following file and folder: (If they still exist)

c:\windows\system32\ustart.exe
D:\mods\lfs

--------------------------------------------------------------------

Go to Start->Run and type in regedit and hit OK. Go to File->Export and save the registry somewhere as a backup. Close the Registry Editor now.

Open notepad and copy/paste the text in the quotebox below:
(don't forget to copy and paste REGEDIT4)

REGEDIT4

[-HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Ext\Stats\{8FCDF9D9-A28B-480F-8C3D-581F119A8AB8}]

Click to expand...

Save the file as "delete.reg". Make sure to save it with the quotes. Choose to "Save type as - All Files"
It should look like this:

Double click on the delete.reg file and choose Yes to merge/add it to the registry. You may delete the file afterwards.

--------------------------------------------------------------------

I'd like to see what the other scanners have to say about this:

Upload this file C:\Program Files\Ideazon\Zboard Software\Driver\KUpdate.exe to http://virusscan.jotti.org and report back what it found.

At the top of the window you should see "File to Upload & scan" and a blank box. Copy and paste the red text from above into the box. Then click "submit".

When it is finished, please copy and paste the information listed under "Service" and "Scanner Results" here.

--------------------------------------------------------------------

Please run another online scan at Panda and save the results.

--------------------------------------------------------------------

Please include the following in your next reply:

Are you sure that is the report from the new Panda scan? It looks exactly the same as the previous scan.

Did you have any difficulty with the registry deletion instructions I gave you?

Did you have any difficulty with the mediagateway.bfu?

--------------------------------------

You still have Messenger Plus! Live & Sponsor installed. Please refer to my very first set of fixes--that is the program that's responsible for the LOP infection you had.

Uninstall that program and if you really like having it, then when you reinstall make sure not to install the sponsor program. Read the installation procedures carefully. When you get to the Sponsor Agreement, SELECT:

’I Refuse to give my support, install Messenger Plus! without the sponsor'.

--------------------------------------

I'd like you to use a different online scanner this time:

Please perform an online scan with Internet Explorer at Kaspersky Online Scanner

Answer Yes, when prompted to install an ActiveX component.

• The program will then begin downloading the latest definition files.
• Once the files have been downloaded click on NEXT
• Locate the Scan Settings button & configure to:
  • Scan using the following Anti-Virus database:
    • Extended
  • Scan Options:
    • Scan Archives
      [*]Scan Mail Bases
• Click OK & have it scan My Computer
• Once the scan is complete, it will display if your system has been infected. It does not provide an option to clean/disinfect. We only require a report from it.
• Click the Save as Text button to save the file to your desktop so that you may post it in your next reply

Click to expand...

Yes, that is the newest report from the Panda scan. The registry deletion instructions gave me no issues at all. Same thing with mediagateway.bfu. As for the messenger plus thing, i removed both instances that were on there (there was an older unremoved version on there from before i switched to live messenger). I have now uninstalled the newer one, and reinstalled without the sponser.

Ok, let's try this again.

Please copy this page to Notepad and save to your desktop for reference as you will not have any browsers open while you are carrying out portions of these instructions.

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

Delete the following files and folders:

c:\windows\system32\ustart.exe

----------------------------------------------------------------

Run another online scan at Panda and post the results here.

----------------------------------------------------------------

Based on the Kaspersky results, I'd like to run another tool and see if it reports any other entries:

Please download SmitfraudFix (by S!Ri) to your Desktop.

Double-click smitfraudfix.exe to start the tool.

• Select option #1 - Search by typing 1 and press "Enter"
• A text file will appear which lists infected files (if present).
• Please copy/paste the content of that report into your next reply.

IMPORTANT: Do NOT run option #2 OR any other option until you are directed to do so!

One more folder and the clearing of cookies and you'll be good to go. :sayyes:


Delete this folder:

c:\program files\common files\GMT

-----------------------------------------------------

Clear Mozilla Firefox cookies:
Open the Mozilla Browser, (you do not need to be online to do this) Click Tools>Options>Privacy>Cookies>Clear

-----------------------------------------------------

Your logs are clean. If there aren't any more problems, please continue with these final instructions and helpful links.


Reset hidden/system files and folders
Windows XP
===============
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.

Enable Windows Auto Update
*Go to Start>Run - type wuaucpl.cpl
*Tick on the checkbox - "Automatically download the updates, and install them on the schedule that I specify".
Click on "OK".

Create a new System Restore point
Click Start >> Run - type SYSDM.CPL & press Enter
* Select the System Restore Tab
* Tick on the checkbox - "Turn off System Restore on all drives"
Click Apply
* Then untick the same checkbox & click OK
This will prevent any reinfection from previous restore points.


To help protect your computer in the future I recommend that you get the following free programs if you do not already have them:

Download SpywareBlaster 3.5.1 to help prevent spyware from installing in the first place. Install & update SpywareBlaster with the latest definitions. After you have updated, click the button - enable protection for all unprotected items .

Download Spyware Guard to catch and block spyware before it can execute.

Download IE-SPYAD.EXE to block access to malicious websites so you cannot be redirected to them from an infected site or email. IE/Spyad places more than 4000 dubious websites and domains in the IE Restricted list. This severely impairs 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. This is a self-extracting .ZIP file, save it to your desktop. Once downloaded, double-click on it to extract the files inside (default dir is C:\IE-SPYAD)

• Now navigate to C:\ie-spyad. Double click to open it.
• From within the folder, double-click install.bat
• Select Option #2 - Install the new IE-SPYAD list, by typing 2
• Then return to the main menu.
• Select option #4 - Add the old porn sites domain, by typing 4

Update all these programs regularly. Without regular updates you will not be protected when new malicious programs are released.

In light of your recent issue, I'm sure you'll like to avoid any future infections. Please take a look at these well written articles:

PC Safety and Security--What Do I Need?

HOW DID I GET INFECTED IN THE FIRST PLACE? by Tony Klein
THE ANTI-SPYWARE TUTORIAL
MAKING INTERNET EXPLORER SAFER
Understanding and Using Firewalls


**Be very wary with any security software that is advertised in popups or in other ways. They are not only usually of no use, but often have malware in them.

Follow this list and your potential for being infected again will reduce dramatically. :smile:
