Home Search Assistant Hijack - Please help

[Eddie88]

I have the HSA variant on my computer. I have been following the steps in the guide provided by this website however, I am having trouble with step 4. I can not find the "services.msc" when I do start>run. I continued on with the remaining steps and fixed some of the problems in my hijack this log but they keep coming back. Any help would be much appreciated.

I have downloaded and run Spybot S&D and Adaware. I also have downloaded but not run Buster. I am able to see all hidden files and disabled system restore. Here is my current Hijack this record.

Thanks in advance for your help. :)

That step would not apply to you since you are running Windows ME.

Please follow these steps to remove the HSA from your computer.

Step 1
Download(right click and select Save file as or Save link as): DelDomains.inf
http://mvps.org/winhelp2002/DelDomains.inf

Close all open browsers
Right-click DelDomains.inf and select: Install


Step 2
Download this tool called AboutBuster http://www.downloads.subratam.org/AboutBuster.zip
Unzip it to your desktop but don't run it yet.


Step 3
Download Adaware SE Personal from http://www.lavasoft.de/english/default.shtml. Install and open Adaware and click on *Check for Updates Now* and then *Connect*. It will find a new reference-file. Click *ok* and let it download and install the updates by clicking on *Finish* .This will return you to the main screen. Exit Adaware.


Step 4
Print out these instructions so you have them handy as most of the steps need to be done in safe mode and you may not be able to go online.


Step 5
Make sure your PC is configured to show hidden files.
Open Windows Explorer & Go to Tools > Folder Options. Click on the View tab and make sure that "Show hidden files and folders" is checked. Also uncheck "Hide protected operating system files" and untick "hide extensions for known file types" . Now click "Apply to all folders"
Click "Apply" then "OK"


Step 6
Reboot to Safe Mode
Restart your computer and as soon as it starts booting up again continuously tap F8. A menu should come up where you will be given the option to enter Safe Mode. To get back to normal mode just restart the computer as you normally would.


Step 7
Scan with Hijack This and put checks next to all the following, then click "Fix Checked"


R1 - HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main,Search Bar = res://C:\WINDOWS\bcqkj.dll/sp.html#14044
R1 - HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main,Search Page = res://C:\WINDOWS\bcqkj.dll/sp.html#14044
R1 - HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main,Default_Page_URL = about:blank

R1 - HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main,Search Bar = res://C:\WINDOWS\bcqkj.dll/sp.html#14044
R1 - HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main,Search Page = res://C:\WINDOWS\bcqkj.dll/sp.html#14044
R0 - HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Search,SearchAssistant = res://C:\WINDOWS\bcqkj.dll/sp.html#14044
R1 - HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Int ernet Settings,ProxyOverride = localhost
R3 - Default URLSearchHook is missing
O2 - BHO: Class - {AADDF46F-6C70-5AF3-0260-47C22B564CB6} - C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM\ATLPT32.DLL
O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [SDKXA32.EXE] C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM\SDKXA32.EXE
O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [9336.TMP] C:\WINDOWS\TEMP\9336.TMP.exe 1 10001
O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [tibs5] C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM\tibs5.exe
O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [9336.TMP.EXE] C:\WINDOWS\TEMP\9336.TMP.EXE 3 10001
O4 - HKLM\..\RunServices: [JAVAZJ32.EXE] C:\WINDOWS\JAVAZJ32.EXE
O4 - HKLM\..\RunServices: [D3OJ.EXE] C:\WINDOWS\D3OJ.EXE
O4 - HKLM\..\RunServices: [APPLL32.EXE] C:\WINDOWS\APPLL32.EXE
O4 - HKLM\..\RunServices: [NETIS.EXE] C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM\NETIS.EXE
O4 - HKLM\..\RunServices: [APPHD32.EXE] C:\WINDOWS\APPHD32.EXE


and delete the following files if present(do not be concerned if some do not exist).


C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM\SDKXA32.EXE
C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM\tibs5.exe
C:\WINDOWS\JAVAZJ32.EXE
C:\WINDOWS\D3OJ.EXE
C:\WINDOWS\APPLL32.EXE
C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM\NETIS.EXE
C:\WINDOWS\APPHD32.EXE
C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM\ATLPT32.DLL
C:\WINDOWS\bcqkj.dll




Step 8
Double click AboutBuster.exe that you downloaded earlier. Click OK, click Start, then click OK. This will scan your computer for the bad files and delete them. Save the report(copy and paste into notepad or wordpad and save as a .txt file) and post a copy back here when you are done with all the steps.


Step 9
Scan with Adaware and let it remove any bad files found.


Step 10
Clean out temporary and TIF files. Go to Start > Run and type in the box: cleanmgr. Let it scan your system for files to remove. Make sure these 3 are checked and then press *ok* to remove:

Temporary Files
Temporary Internet Files
Recycle Bin


Step 11
Reboot to normal mode, scan again with Hijack This and post a new log here.


Step 12
Finally, do an online scan at one of the following sites. Let it remove any infected files found.
http://housecall.antivirus.com
or
http://www.pandasoftware.com/activescan/com/activescan_principal.htm


Post a fresh HijackThis log and the AboutBuster report back here please.

I was not able to do step number 12. I went to the website and was not able to do an online scan.

Once again, thanks for your help. I really appreciate it.

[Buckeye_Sam]

Your log is looking good, but the virus scan is an important step.


Please remove these lines with hijackthis.

O15 - ProtocolDefaults: 'http' protocol is in My Computer Zone, should be Internet Zone
O15 - ProtocolDefaults: 'http' protocol is in My Computer Zone, should be Internet Zone (HKLM)




Please run at least one of these two online scans.
Make sure they are set to clean automatically:

http://www3.ca.com/securityadvisor/virusinfo/scan.aspx

http://www.pandasoftware.com/activescan/com/activescan_principal.htm

If there are files that can not be removed by the scans please include that information in your next post.



Reboot and post a new hijackthis log.
