help with home search assistant

Unknown
edited December 2004 in Spyware & Virus Removal
Hi friends at short media,

Hope things are going fine. I have a problem with my PC and if you can help me, I will really appreciate it. It all began with my suspicion about my computer having a virus.

1) I began using GIANT's spyware (a freeware download), and told me that could not get rid of some malware.
2) Then, I ran Norton Antivirus (it came with system works and a personal firewall), and I was told that I still have some malware. At least I got to know it was related to expiis.exe and home search assistant. And I also had other suspicious files.
3) Google took me to your website -short media- and decided to try your advices, so I downloaded Adaware, CWS, Spybot, and Hijachthis.
4) After running all updated versions of those programs, hijackthis showed me this log:

Sorry about such an extense reading material.

According to the instructions, I am supposed to remove some files from this log, but due to my little knowledge in computers, I am afraid I might remove something I am not supposed, so please can you tell me which files are the ones I am supposed to remove. By the way my OS is windows xp and an emachine.

Thanks a lot in advance, and I will be waiting for your reply,

Marko17

    Hi SpywareShooter,

    At last I am back. I decided to download HSRemover but it did not work in my computer. Then I used Hijackthis and got rid of the files you mentioned. So here it is the new log:

    Looks pretty good now. I recommend you run HJT again, and FIX THE FOLLOWING:


    **************
    R3 - Default URLSearchHook is missing


    O4 - HKCU\..\Run: [IncrediMail] C:\PROGRA~1\INCRED~1\bin\IncMail.exe /c

    O8 - Extra context menu item: &Add animation to IncrediMail Style Box - C:\PROGRA~1\INCRED~1\bin\resources\WebMenuImg.htm

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

    Incredimail is a program known to contain some adware. I recommend removing those entries and then uninstalling Incredimail from your Add/Remove Programs control panel.

    Are you seeing any other problems at this time? Please let us know.

    Hi Dexter,

    Thanks a lot for your reply. I did what you told me. I fixed those three entries, and then, I uninstalled Incredimail. I am a rookie on this subject, so please can you tell if there is anything else wrong with my PC by looking at the new log:

    I hope I have no more problems, but your expert opinion will give me some peace of mind for real.

    Looking forward to hearing from you,

    Your log looks okay now. You can fix this entry to free up some system resources:

    O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [TkBellExe] "C:\Program Files\Common Files\Real\Update_OB\realsched.exe" -osboot

    Can I mark this topic resolved?
