Seems to me that it didnt delete three of the objects I asked it to fix in the last scan? Hopefully this will eliminate the ENDLESS amount of popups and constant (unaccepted) downloads. Thanks for your help. Let me know if there is anything else I need to do. Thanks.

Jeff

[primesuspect]

Okay, do this.

Go to C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM32\DRIVERS\ETC

See that HOSTS file in there? Open it with notepad.

Delete EVERYTHING in there.

Then, create a line that says:

127.0.0.1 localhost

just like that. Save the file (with no .TXT extension).

Reboot and post a new log.

[SahDu]

I still seem to be getting popups. Sorry this is such a pain. Heres the new log:

Thanks for your help.
Jeff

[Dexter]

Did you edit the HOSTS file in C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM32\DRIVERS\ETC as Primesuspect instructed?

Dexter...

[SahDu]

I did, but I noticed that whenever I edit it and reopen it, it has always rechanged the entire file. I changed it again and here is my current log. (Sorry it took me so long to reply I have been out of town.) Thanks!

Edit: I just checked the "host" file and it seems, once again, to have rewritten itself as follow:
69.20.16.183 auto.search.msn.com
69.20.16.183 search.netscape.com
69.20.16.183 ieautosearch
127.0.0.1 www.igetnet.com
127.0.0.1 code.ignphrases.com
127.0.0.1 clear-search.com
127.0.0.1 r1.clrsch.com
127.0.0.1 sds.clrsch.com
127.0.0.1 status.clrsch.com
127.0.0.1 www.clrsch.com
127.0.0.1 clr-sch.com
127.0.0.1 sds-qckads.com
127.0.0.1 status.qckads.com
127.0.0.1 status.qckads.com

There are other files in the C:\Windows\System32\Drivers\Etc folder which are: "hosts.20040911-175200.backup","hosts.bak","hosts.new","LMHOSTS.SAM","NETWORKS","PROTOCOL","SERVICES". Do I need to edit any of these files so it will work? Thanks for the help. Later.

[primesuspect]

Try just deleting the hosts file entirely.

Delete hosts, hosts.bak, hosts.new, lmhosts.sam, and hosts.sam (if there is one)

reboot and post a new log.

[SahDu]

Just tried and I was able to delete all the files. But immediatly after I delete the "hosts" file, it recreates itself with the same content. Not sure what to do about that. Going to reboot and post a new log. Thanks.

Thanks!

Jeff

By the way, I dont know if this will help at all, but throughout the day my computer (running XP) will have random spikes of a file called "rundll32.exe" which will take up 100% of my CPU Usage. Hope this helps in diagnosing the problem!

[SahDu]

Hey all. My computer is still getting an immutable amount of pop-ups. Here is my current log. Thanks for your help!

Alright, get rid of the following:

R0 - HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main,Start Page = www.zestyfind.com/
R0 - HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main,Start Page = www.zestyfind.com/
R3 - Default URLSearchHook is missing

O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [msbb] c:\temp\msbb.exe
O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [VBundleOuterDL] C:\Program Files\VBouncer\BundleOuter.EXE

Then DELETE the C:\TEMP folder. Then go into C:\PROGRAM FILES\ and DELETE the VBouncer folder.

IF you can't delete them, try renaming them.

After you delete/rename them, PULL THE PLUG on your computer. Do not shut it down properly.

Turn it back on and (I know this is frustrating) post a new log :)

[SahDu]

Hey man. No, I dont mind the frustration. Thank you so much for helping me. Heres the new log. Apparently I now have something called "Windows Synchro Ad"...great! Thanks. New log below.

Fix those entries then find and delete the folder "Windows SyncroAd" then reboot and post a new log.

[SahDu]

After fixing those entries, I went to delete the "SynchroAd" folder and got an error message saying access is denied. Any suggestions?

Jeff

[primesuspect]

You have to end the task before you can delete it.

See these two processes?


C:\Program Files\Windows SyncroAd\SyncroAd.exe
C:\Program Files\Windows SyncroAd\WinSync.exe

They have to be ended before you can delete the folder.

[SahDu]

Tried that. They automatically restart without giving me enough time to delete them. Sucks. Any other suggestions? Thanks.

Jeff

[primesuspect]

Try doing it in safe mode...

[SahDu]

Yea...I shoulda thought of that...fool. Hahah ok thanks. New log below.

I cant understand why those first five never erase. AH! Thanks for the help.

Do you use DeadAIM?

[SahDu]

Yea...Is that causing it?

Jeff

[primesuspect]

No, I must admit that I'm somewhat stumped, and I'm starting to use the process of elimination.

You either have a service-based trojan, or something is masquerading as something legit - which is why all the questions ;)

Download this (http://www.short-media.com/forum/attachment.php?attachmentid=11349), which will give you a list of active services. Post that list here.
