Osa.exe
Hi everyone...
First of all im am no techie, so please dont yell at me if im asking a silly question.
This is my prblem (i think it is a trojan but im not sure) - upon startup there is a program OSA.EXE which opens a screen (a DOS screen?) with this in the header:
C:\DOCUME~1\ALLUSE~1\STARTM~1\Programs\startup\OSA.exe
and then my printer starts spitting out blank pages. When i try and close the program it says that "windows cannot close this program, it may need more time..." and i then have to click on end now!
I did have a virus/trogan by the name of sdocha.exe which has been removed but have had this problem ever since.
Can anyone help?
thanks
M

Open CWShredder and click the FIX button. Close ALL browsers first. Run the scan twice
Please run Ewido, and do a full scan. During the scan it will prompt you to clean files, click OK. Save the logfile from the scan.
Restart your computer in normal mode and please post a new HijackThis log, as well as the log from the Ewido scan.
Followed your instructions to the tee... but OSA still popping up and the printer is still spitting out picture of snow white in a snow storm!.
I thought it might be of interest that there were two versions of the OSA file when i opened MSCONFIG. the pathnames were: (typing them exactly as they appear)
C:\PROGRA~1\MICROS~2\Office\OSA.EXE -b -l
and
C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Start Menu\Programs\Startup\OSA.exe
anyway

Download LSPFix and unzip to your desktop.
Open it, hit 'Finish' and then close it.

Now that your PC is clean you need to follow these easy steps to keeping it this way:
Secure your Internet Explorer by going here and following the instructions there.
Better yet, use an alternative browser! Download FireFox and give it a run. It is far more secure than Internet Explorer. Or, you can get Opera which in my opinion, is better still.
Use a firewall to help prevent your PC's control being usurped by undesireables.
Install and keep updated, Ad-Aware SE, and Spybot S&D.
Run them both on a regular basis, following the manufacturer's recommendations.
Install and keep updated, SpywareBlaster 3.4
Install an anti-virus. There are some good, free AV's available today. Make sure that it is updated regularly and have it scan your system often.
Check for Windows Updates. Microsoft regularly post updates for your systems safe running. Make sure to take advantage of this. Reboot when installed and return to make sure there are no others.
Clear your Temp folders.
Clear out your Temporary internet files and other temp files.
Go to Start > Settings > Control Panel >Internet Options.
Under the General tab click the Delete temporary internet files,
delete all Offline content as well. Clear out Cookies.
Also, go to Start > Find/search > Files or folders > in the named box, type: *.tmp and choose Edit > select all -> File > delete.
Empty/delete the entire contents of the C:\Windows\temp folder and C:\temp folder, if you have one. (Contents but not the folder itself.)
C:\Documents and Settings\username\Local Settings\Temp\
In order to view these files you may have to select 'show hidden files/folders.' Instructions on how to here.
Empty the Recycle Bin.
For XP users.
After something like this it is a good idea to Flush the Restore Points and start fresh.
To flush the XP system Restore Points.
Go to Start>Run and type msconfig. Press enter.
When msconfig opens, click the Launch System Restore Button.
On the next page, click the System Restore Settings link on the left.
Check the box labelled 'Turn off System restore'.
Reboot. Go back in and Turn System Restore Back on. A new Restore Point will be created.
Note that all previous restore points will be lost.
