My IE Home Page has been hijacked! Please help with HJT Log

Unknown
edited February 2005 in Spyware & Virus Removal
Hello all,

I'm a student at Duke University. My IE home page has recently been hijacked. I have since switched to Mozilla but I'd really like to get rid of ths spyware that's still there. I've run the new adaware and the hsremove program but the problem is still there. I would really appreciate it if someone could take a look at my HJT log and tell me what I should get rid of.

Thanks for your help!

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

    Step 1
    Download this tool called AboutBuster http://www.downloads.subratam.org/AboutBuster.zip
    Unzip it to your desktop but don't run it yet.


    Step 2
    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 3
    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 4
    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 5
    Next, go to Start->Run and type "Services.msc" (without quotes) then hit Ok

    Scroll down and find the service called Network Security Service. When you find it, double-click on it. In the next window that opens, click the Stop button, then click on properties and under the General Tab, change the Startup Type to Disabled. Now hit Apply and then Ok and close any open windows.


    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\soqew.dll/sp.html#12345
    R1 - HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main,Search Bar = res://C:\WINDOWS\soqew.dll/sp.html#12345
    R1 - HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Search,SearchAssistant = res://C:\WINDOWS\soqew.dll/sp.html#12345
    R0 - HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Search,SearchAssistant = res://C:\WINDOWS\soqew.dll/sp.html#12345
    R3 - Default URLSearchHook is missing
    O2 - BHO: (no name) - {E660146D-84B5-3C44-BC7E-AA0905BCCD81} - C:\WINDOWS\system32\mskl.dll
    O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [ViewMgr] C:\Program Files\Viewpoint\Viewpoint Manager\ViewMgr.exe
    O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [version] C:\WINDOWS\System32\Lzeioc.exe
    O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [secure] C:\WINDOWS\System32\Szytbw.exe
    O16 - DPF: {56336BCB-3D8A-11D6-A00B-0050DA18DE71} (RdxIE Class) - http://software-dl.real.com/22f9a8b...ip/RdxIE601.cab
    O23 - Service: Network Security Service (%AF夶À¨) - Unknown owner - C:\WINDOWS\ipzj.exe (file missing)


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


    C:\WINDOWS\ipzj.exe
    C:\WINDOWS\soqew.dll
    C:\WINDOWS\system32\mskl.dll
    C:\WINDOWS\System32\Lzeioc.exe
    C:\WINDOWS\System32\Szytbw.exe
    C:\Program Files\Viewpoint




    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.
