What's up everyone? I've been infected again. I don't know what is in my system this time around. I can say this...My homepage keeps going back to this ww.clon.biz/search?idz ( I left out one of the w's so it wouldn't turn into a link and infest someone else). I used Spybot, Ad-Aware and Hijackthis. I found the homepage in the hijackthis scan and checked it, but upon doing an imediate scan again after removing it the page was back. None of my programs have been able to get rid of it. Will you guys please help me get rid of this nuisance? Thanks. Here is my log from HijackThis...

    Let's see what we can do for you.


    Please download CWShredder but don't run it yet.
    http://cwshredder.net/bin/CWSInstall.exe


    Please make sure that you can view all hidden files. Instructions on how to do this can be found here:

    How to see hidden files in Windows

    Place a checkmark next to these entries, close all browsers and windows, and have HijackThis fix them by clicking Fix Checked:

    C:\WINDOWS\System32\SEARCH~1.DLL
    sysinit32m.exe


    Reboot your computer to go back to normal mode and post a new log.

    Thanks for your help Buckeye_Sam. I appreciate it. I ran HijackThis again and the only thing that comes up is the homepage ww.clon.biz/search etc. Nothing else from my previous list. I did what you said, but I don't know if it will help. Here is the log file from DllCompare:


    * DLLCompare Log version(1.0.0.127)

    Download rkfiles.zip
    http://skads.org/special/rkfiles.zip
    Unzip the contents to a permanent folder.

    Reboot in Safe mode.

    Doubleclick rkfiles.bat
    It will scan for a while, so please be patient.
    Wait till the DOS window closes and reboot back to normal mode.

    Post the contents of C:\log.txt in your next reply.

    Download KillBox and unzip it to your desktop.
    http://www.downloads.subratam.org/KillBox.zip


    Open Killbox and select the Delete on reboot option.


    Copy and paste the following file to the field labeled "Full path of file to delete"

    C:\WINDOWS\system32\XpBlock.dll

    Press the Delete button (the button that looks like a red circle with a white X in it).

    A first dialog box will ask if you want to delete the file on reboot, press the YES button.

    A second dialog box will ask you if you want to REBOOT now. Press the YES button.

    Your computer will reboot.


    Let me know if this file is present.
    C:\WINDOWS\system32\systr.dll


    Please post a new hijackthis log.

    The file "C:\WINDOWS\system32\systr.dll" is present in my files.

    After the reboot, when I was running HijackThis, it automatically brought up the Internet Explorer at ww.clon.biz/search etc and brought up that pop-up that I told you about above. It has brought up the Internet Explorer at that page automatically every so often since it's been in my system.

    Here's my new log:

    Fix this line with hijackthis.

    R0 - HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main,Start Page = http://www.clon.biz/search?idz


    Open Killbox and select the Delete on reboot option.


    Copy and paste the following file to the field labeled "Full path of file to delete"

    C:\WINDOWS\system32\systr.dll

    Press the Delete button (the button that looks like a red circle with a white X in it).
    A first dialog box will ask if you want to delete the file on reboot, press the YES button.
    A second dialog box will ask you if you want to REBOOT now. Press the YES button.

    Reboot your computer.


    Please run this online scans.
    Make sure it is set to clean automatically:

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

    There will be files that this scan will find, but will not remove. Please include that information in your next post.


    Reboot and post a new hijackthis log.

    I did what you said, however, the link in your post wouldn't work. I went to the Panda main page and searched for Active. I found the Active Scan online scanner and did that. Here is what it found:

    Upon reboot and running Hijackthis, I fixed the ww.clon.biz/search line and when I clicked on the net it came up with the address bar showing "about.blank"

    I don't think it is gone though as it came up in the Hijackthis scan after rebooting.

    Download mwav.exe from MicroWorld, then:

    - Double-click the mwav.exe icon to run it (it'll self extract).
    - When it opens, check the following:
    ---- Memory
    ---- Registry
    ---- Startup Folders
    ---- System Folders
    ---- Services
    ---- Drive
    ---- All local drives
    ---- Scan all files

    - Then click on SCAN

    When it completes, post back the results (copy and paste) from the 'Virus log information' pane.

    Here is the log:

    File System Found infected by "Alexa Spyware/Adware" Virus. Action Taken: No Action Taken.
    File System Found infected by "Quicken Spyware/Adware" Virus. Action Taken: No Action Taken.
    File C:\Program Files\Yahoo!\Installs\ymsgrie.exe tagged as not-a-virus:Tool.Win32.Reboot. No Action Taken.


    The last time I started up my homepage was nothing and showed about.blank in the address bar. When I clicked on the home icon it would go back to about.blank instead of ww.clon.biz/search.idz like it used to. When I changed it to Google it actually stayed with it instead of changing back like it would do before. I have not gotten the popup either that I told you about. This time it did not show up at all. I would like to thank you for all your help Buckeye_Sam. This one wasn't as bad as when I had HomeSearch, but it was still nerve racking. I am glad you guys have this site up and help ppl like me with viruses, adware, spyware, etc. Thanks again.

    Now that you are clean, please follow these simple steps in order to keep your computer clean and secure:
    1. Disable and Enable System Restore. - If you are using Windows ME or XP then you should disable and reenable system restore to make sure there are no infected files found in a restore point left over from what we have just cleaned.

      You can find instructions on how to enable and reenable system restore here:

      Managing Windows Millenium System Restore

      or

      Windows XP System Restore Guide

      Renable system restore with instructions from tutorial above

    2. Make your Internet Explorer more secure - This can be done by following these simple instructions:
      1. From within Internet Explorer click on the Tools menu and then click on Options.
      2. Click once on the Security tab
      3. Click once on the Internet icon so it becomes highlighted.
      4. Click once on the Custom Level button.
        1. Change the Download signed ActiveX controls to Prompt
        2. Change the Download unsigned ActiveX controls to Disable
        3. Change the Initialize and script ActiveX controls not marked as safe to Disable
        4. Change the Installation of desktop items to Prompt
        5. Change the Launching programs and files in an IFRAME to Prompt
        6. Change the Navigate sub-frames across different domains to Prompt
        7. When all these settings have been made, click on the OK button.
        8. If it prompts you as to whether or not you want to save the settings, press the Yes button.
      5. Next press the Apply button and then the OK to exit the Internet Properties page.

    3. Use an AntiVirus Software - It is very important that your computer has an anti-virus software running on your machine. This alone can save you a lot of trouble with malware in the future.

      See this link for a listing of some online & their stand-alone antivirus programs:

      Virus, Spyware, and Malware Protection and Removal Resources

    4. Update your AntiVirus Software - It is imperitive that you update your Antivirus software at least once a week (Even more if you wish). If you do not update your antivirus software then it will not be able to catch any of the new variants that may come out.

    5. Use a Firewall - I can not stress how important it is that you use a Firewall on your computer. Without a firewall your computer is succeptible to being hacked and taken over. I am very serious about this and see it happen almost every day with my clients. Simply using a Firewall in its default configuration can lower your risk greatly.

      For a tutorial on Firewalls and a listing of some available ones see the link below:

      Understanding and Using Firewalls

    6. Visit Microsoft's Windows Update Site Frequently - It is important that you visit http://www.windowsupdate.com regularly. This will ensure your computer has always the latest security updates available installed on your computer. If there are new updates to install, install them immediately, reboot your computer, and revisit the site until there are no more critical updates.

    7. Install Spybot - Search and Destroy - Install and download Spybot - Search and Destroy with its TeaTimer option. This will provide realtime spyware & hijacker protection on your computer alongside your virus protection. You should also scan your computer with program on a regular basis just as you would an antivirus software.

      A tutorial on installing & using this product can be found here:

      Using Spybot - Search & Destroy to remove Spyware , Malware, and Hijackers

    8. Install Ad-Aware - Install and download Ad-Aware. ou should also scan your computer with program on a regular basis just as you would an antivirus software in conjunction with Spybot.

      A tutorial on installing & using this product can be found here:

      Using Ad-aware to remove Spyware, Malware, & Hijackers from Your Computer

    9. Install SpywareBlaster - SpywareBlaster will added a large list of programs and sites into your Internet Explorer settings that will protect you from running and downloading known malicious programs.

      A tutorial on installing & using this product can be found here:

      Using SpywareBlaster to protect your computer from Spyware and Malware

    10. Update all these programs regularly - Make sure you update all the programs I have listed regularly. Without regular updates you WILL NOT be protected when new malicious programs are released.
    Follow this list and your potential for being infected again will reduce dramatically.
