Trojan (?) installs cookies on startup
Hello! Thanks for taking the time to read my post.
I recently (in the past 24 hours) must have downloaded something I shouldn't have (
). I am experiencing massive pop-up deluges, which I would expect from adware. However, I'm also getting modified webpages - every 10th webpage or so that I open, the top 1/4 of the page is replaced with an ad. This is the first time I've seen this kind of behavior from adware.
The most unusual part, however, is that upon windows startup, *something* installs about 594 or so cookies on my machine. I have run Spyware Doctor, Ad-Aware, Spybot S&D, and HouseCall, and all of these tools have no problem finding and removing the cookies (duh - I could've done that myself). But upon reboot, the very first thing I do is check if they're back - and sure enough, all 594 or so cookies are there every time (followed, of course, by all of the pop-ups and system slowdowns). If I log in to safe mode, the cookies don't self-install.
So there's the description of my problem. I would LOVE to post a HJT log, but all of a sudden I can't use HJT because it can't find MSVMVB60.DLL (???) Unfortunately, I can't find that particular DLL anywhere. Anyone feel like donating their copy to me? I'll post a HJT log as soon as I get a copy. Thanks!
