    You have an HSA infection. The filenames on this type of infection can change each time you reboot your computer or use Internet Explorer. With that in mind some of these filenames may be different. But the pattern is the same and you may be able to determine the correct files to remove. The sooner you perform this fix, the higher it's chances for success.

    Much of this fix has to be performed in Safe Mode where you won't be able to access the Internet. Please print out these instructions.


    Step 1
    Download CWShredder but don't run it yet.


    Step 2
    Download AboutBuster
    Unzip it to your desktop but don't run it yet.


    Step 3
    Download Ad-aware SE 1.05
    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.


    Step 5
    Make sure that you can VIEW ALL HIDDEN FILES.


    Step 6
    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.

    R1 - HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main,Search Page = res://C:\WINDOWS\rcvgk.dll/sp.html#14044
    R1 - HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main,Default_Search_URL = about:blank
    R1 - HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Search,SearchAssistant = res://C:\WINDOWS\rcvgk.dll/sp.html#14044
    R1 - HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main,Search Bar = res://C:\WINDOWS\rcvgk.dll/sp.html#14044
    R1 - HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main,Search Page = res://C:\WINDOWS\rcvgk.dll/sp.html#14044
    R1 - HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main,Default_Page_URL = about:blank
    R1 - HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main,Default_Search_URL = res://C:\WINDOWS\rcvgk.dll/sp.html#14044
    R0 - HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Search,SearchAssistant = res://C:\WINDOWS\rcvgk.dll/sp.html#14044
    O2 - BHO: (no name) - {C405ABDB-4CCE-D02F-8677-825A3F453A44} - C:\WINDOWS\ADDAG.DLL
    O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [D3HM.EXE] C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM\D3HM.EXE
    O4 - HKLM\..\RunServices: [CRLT.EXE] C:\WINDOWS\CRLT.EXE /s
    O4 - HKCU\..\Run: [Ckdwtftc] C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM\gbpdl.exe



    Step 7
    Reboot your computer into SAFE MODE


    Step 8
    Now run CWShredder, making sure to click "Fix".


    Step 9
    Then delete these files or directories (Do not be concerned if they do not exist)

    C:\WINDOWS\ADDAG.DLL
    C:\WINDOWS\rcvgk.dll
    C:\WINDOWS\CRLT.EXE
    C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM\gbpdl.exe
    C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM\D3HM.EXE


    Step 10
    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 11
    Run a full scan with Adaware.
