hope to hear from u soon. :) Thanks.

innocuous bump :)

Sorry to have taken so long to get back to you, we have been pretty busy around here the last few days...victims of our own success ;)

Reboot in SAFE MODE. Run HJT. Fix:

R3 - Default URLSearchHook is missing

O2 - BHO: (no name) - {F0D80D9E-EC18-2B52-399F-E70AEDFC8E18} - C:\WINDOWS\windn32.dll

O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [ipqr32.exe] C:\WINDOWS\system32\ipqr32.exe

O16 - DPF: {11311111-1111-1111-1111-111111111157} - file://C:\Recycled\Q330995.exe


Next, stay in SAFE MODE, and locate all of the .exe files and .dll files mentioned above. Make sure you are set to show hidden files and folders on your system, instructions to do that are in the link above "Steps to take before posting a Hijack This log."


These are the files you need to look for:

C:\WINDOWS\windn32.dll
C:\WINDOWS\system32\ipqr32.exe
C:\WINDOWS\system32\d3cz.exe
C:\Recycled\Q330995.exe


Move these files to a new folder called :C:\Quarantine. Rename the the .exe's to .xxx. and the dll's to .ddd. That way you can always replace them if it somehow turns out that one or more of these are necessary files....which is not likely, but quarantining is safer than deleting them.

Now, reboot normally, and check things out. Come let us know how it worked. Run a new HJT scan, and post the log here for further review.

Dexter...

Hi!:) I don't know if my computer is getting better or not. When i rebooted in normal mode, a message box pops up. This is the message "Windows cannot find 'C:\WINDOWS\system32\d3cz.exe'. Make sure you typed the name correctly, and then try again. To search for a file, click the start button, and then click search". And 1 thing more, I can't locate the file C:\Recycled\Q330995.exe. Thanks for helping me fix this problem.:) Here is my new HJT Logfile:

I want you to manually do a hard-power down or power reset on your computer. Do not select shutdown from your menu, just reach over and shut it off, then back on, or hit the restart button on your case. When it starts to boot, tap the F8 key to get the boot options menu, and select SAFE MODE.

Again, locate the .exe and .dll's files above and quarantine them as per my soon-to-be patented file quarantine procedure.

Reboot normally, and check things out. Let me know how that works.

It doesnt fix the problem yet. It still redirects my homepage to Home Search page. I cannot locate ipqr32.exe and crhv.dll. I notice that when im removing the BHO: (no name)... it keeps coming back but with different file name. Well here's my new HJT logfile:

Thanks i appreciate your help very much. :)

[Dexter]

Did you shut down the computer the way I instructed, just by pressing the power switch, then booting in SAFE MODE?

Dexter...

[Aeromav]

Ya I did what you have just told me.

[Aeromav]

Can you tell me if it is getting better? I tried to remove some files that I thought were suspicious using HJT. Again thanks for the help.

You almost have it. Print this log for comparison later.

Safe mode, HJT, FIX:

O2 - BHO: (no name) - {E2FD0FD6-AD1B-0E95-AC33-F5515B5A3EC5} - C:\WINDOWS\mfcvr32.dll

O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [winsu32.exe] C:\WINDOWS\system32\winsu32.exe

Exit HJT. Find and Quarantine:

C:\WINDOWS\mfcvr32.dll
C:\WINDOWS\system32\winsu32.exe

Hard reboot as per my previous instructions. Rn HJT, compare current log to printed one. See if any new entries appear. If so, repeat the process with those entries.

Hi. I've done your instructions. Can't locate 'mfcvr32.dll'. I've noticed that when I hard reboot my comp and run HJT again these things reappear on my log:

I post it because there were some added entries. I think the 'ujjvf.dll' renames itself to 'kycnc.dll' after fixing it using HJT. I'll try to fix them tomorrow and read the just-published Short-Media.com Home Search Assistant Removal Guide for more information. Thanks again.

Did you install ScanSoft?

Also get the latest version of HJT from the Downloads Section (http://www.short-media.com/download.php?dc=69)
Latest is v1.98.2

Shut Down all the way and then boot into safemode to see it everything is the same yet and the files have not renamed themselves.

Hello! I've read the article HSA Removal Guide. I've run a full virus scan run Ad Aware, Spybot S&D,CWS Shredder, and HS Remove. I also run HJT and fixed some entries that im suspicious off. I noticed that the 02 - BHO: (no name) -... keeps on reapearing after i fixed it using HJT. (i also put its .dll file to the Quarantine folder). Thanks for all the help. Here's my new HJT Logfile:

@MMONNIN: thanks for the help im gonna remove them next time. Just wanna ask how to stop C:\WINDOWS\iejl32.exe & C:\WINDOWS\netso32.exe? The next time I post my new HJT Logfile i'll be using the latest version of HJT. Thanks again for the help.

[Dexter]

Yep, try to quarantine that file in SAFE MODE, after doing a hard reboot. Chech HJT as soon as you get into Safe Mode, to make sure that the BHO still has the same DLL name, or if it changed. If it changed, get the new one instead.

Dexter...

I noticed that the R0, R1, R3, 02 - BHO..., and 04 - HKLM... entries keeps on reapearing and renaming itself after I rebooted. What seems to be the problem? Again, thanks for the help.

[Dexter]

You have a process running:

C:\WINDOWS\netso32.exe

That appears to be the service portion of the infection, but I don't see where it starts up.

Can you send me a Startup Log from HJT, in Normal Mode.

Click on Config -> Misc Tools. Check off the 2 options under the button that says Generate StartupList Log, then click the button itself. Generate that log, save it as a text file, then post the test file here as an attachment. I'd like to have a look through that and get a better idea of where this thing is starting up.

Dexter...

[Aeromav]

Hello! Well here's the Start Up log. Thanks for the time. :)

[Dexter]

From your startup log, I noted a service called:

Workstation NetLogon Service

This led me to some new information on the HSA hijack that I was not aware of before. This is a bogus service similar to the Network Security Service mentioned in the Removal Guide.


http://www.short-media.com/forum/showthread.php?p=172774#post172774

I have updated the Removal Guide with some new steps and this information. It also now calls for the use of the program About:Buster to aid in removal.

Please read and follow all the steps in the updated guide. Stopping that service and running About:Buster should solve your problem.

Dexter...

[Aeromav]

uh it's getting complicated. :-/ I was about ask you the "Only the Best" but i read it now on the updated guide. :) So i'll just follow the guide and hope we'll fix the problem now. :) I'll let you know ASAP. :) Thanks for the help. :thumbsup:

[Aeromav]

Hello. :) I can't run AboutBuster on my comp. When I hit ok, nothing happens, "Idle and Waiting, Currently Scanning Nothing. I updated it and run again, still nothing happens. Here's my new HJT Logfile:

The BHO entry is gone. :) I skip using AboutBuster instead I use HJT and fix the R0, R1 entries. Is that ok? But there are new R0, R1 entry. I don't have _NS_Service and Legacy_NS_Service on my registry. 1 thing more, I looked at my Add/Remove Programs, the Home Search Assistent, Search Assistant, and Shopping Wizard were all gone. :) Any more suggestions? Thanks for your time. :)

[Dexter]

Were you able to stop the Workstation NetLogon Service?

Try downloading and installing about:buster again, just to see if it works.

Failing that, if you were able to stop the Workstation NetLogon Service, then go into SAFE MODE, run HJT, and fix:

R1 - HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main,Search Bar = res://C:\WINDOWS\system32\zyqlg.dll/sp.html#96676

R1 - HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main,Search Bar = res://C:\WINDOWS\system32\zyqlg.dll/sp.html#96676

R0 - HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main,Start Page = http://hsremove.com/done.htm

Then, following the instructions in the removal guide, make sure to do steps 13 and 15.

Let me know the answers to those questions.

Dexter...

[Aeromav]

Hello. Yes I did stop the Workstation NetLogon Service. I'll try to download AboutBuster again. Hope this time it'll work. :) Thanks. :thumbsup:

[Aeromav]

Hi. Ive downloaded the AboutBuster from a certain site, well its working now. I thing my comp is fine now. No more changing of homepage and no mo 'Only the Best" pop ups. I'll post again my HJY Logfile for review. Thanks for the help. :)

All right, that looks good now.

Take some time to learn how to protect yourself against hijacks, adware and spyware, read the two links at the bottom of our removal guide:


Spyware General Information (http://www.short-media.com/review.php?r=252&p=4)

Defeating Spyware (http://www.short-media.com/review.php?r=132)

Also, visit our security downloads page and use the program Spyware Blaster to help immunize against many known problems. Finally, consider changing browsers to something more secure such as Firebird or Opera.
