Sadly My computer has been infected with the Home Shopping assistant, Search Extender, and the Shopping Wizard. I think they are all the same program, but I am not sure. I would greatly appreciate someone helping me to rid my system of this problem. I first discovered it a few days ago as I tried to use my AIM instant messenger program. Every time i would open a chat window, the program crashed. The AIM.com FAQ listings told me about this problem and I found them on my system. I have run both SpyBot S&D and AdAware SE and neither program has been able to fix my problem. Thank you in advance for any help you can give me.

I run Windows 98 SE, and I can't follow the "how to remove" guide with this OS. Here is my HijackThis log:

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


    Download Ad-aware SE from: http://www.majorgeeks.com/download506.html

    Install the program and launch it. First, in the main window, look in the bottom right corner and click on Check for updates now and download the latest reference files. Exit Adaware for now.


    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

    Run Hijackthis again, click scan, and Put a checkmark next to each of these. Then close all other windows--you should only see HijackThis on your Desktop--and click the Fix Checked button.

    Reboot your computer into Safe Mode


    Now run CWShredder, making sure to click "Fix".


    Then delete these files or directories (Do not be concerned if they do not exist)

    C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM\CRZZ.DLL
    C:\WINDOWS\system\ypnfu.dll
    C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM\APPWU32.EXE
    C:\WINDOWS\APPNF32.EXE
    C:\WINDOWS\D3JI.EXE
    C:\ARCHIVE.MHT


    Run a full scan with Adaware.

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

    Alright, I did all the fix stuff and noticed a few things. The CWShredder didnt pickup any instances of CWS on my system, yet the Ad-aware scan i ran after that picked them up. I dont know if it was just file leftovers or whatnot, but here is my latest HijackThis scan. A much shorter scan, might I add...

    I just tried my AIM program again, seems it still doesnt work, how dissappointing, It must still be on my system.

    Yes, it's still there, and being stubborn. Let's try another method.

    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
    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 6
    Scan with Hijack This and put checks next to all the following, then click "Fix Checked"


    R3 - Default URLSearchHook is missing
    O2 - BHO: Class - {5D772207-2FD1-BF6B-6D3F-7D3B907A927A} - C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM\IPFG32.DLL
    O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [IPGB32.EXE] C:\WINDOWS\IPGB32.EXE
    O4 - HKLM\..\RunServices: [SYSLW.EXE] C:\WINDOWS\SYSLW.EXE /s


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


    C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM\IPFG32.DLL
    C:\WINDOWS\IPGB32.EXE
    C:\WINDOWS\SYSLW.EXE




    Step 7
    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 8
    Scan with Adaware and let it remove any bad files found.


    Step 9
    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 10
    Reboot to normal mode, scan again with Hijack This and post a new log here.


    Step 10
    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.

    Your log is clean! I would manually delete any of those files from the Panda scan that are still on your system.


    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.
