    Hello Byron172 you are Infected :sad2:

    Please read this post completely, it may make it easier for you if you copy and paste this post to a new text document or print it for reference later.

    This will likely be a few step process in removing the malware that has infected your system. I encourage you to stick with it and follow my directions as closely as possible so as to avoid complicating the problem further.

    You have a nasty CoolWebSearch infection. First we will need to download a few tools that will help us in the removal of your problem.

    Download about:buster.

    Download CWShredder.

    Download SpSeHjfix.

    Download and install CleanUp!

    Save all of these files somewhere you will remember like to the Desktop.

    Unzip SpSeHjfix to its own folder (ie c:\SpSeHjfix)

    Run the CleanUp! installer. You dont need to do anything with it right now.

    Unzip About:Buster
    • Unzip the contents of AboutBuster.zip and an AboutBuster directory will be created.

    Update CWShredder
    • Open CWShredder and click I AGREE
    • Click Check For Update
    • Close CWShredder

    Boot into 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.

    Please run about:buster by RubbeRDuckY:
    • Click Begin Removal to allow AboutBuster to scan for Alternate Data Streams.
    • Click Yes to allow it to shutdown explorer.exe.
    • It will begin to check your computer for malicious files. If it asks if you would like to do a second pass, allow it to do so.
    • When it has finished, click Save Log. Make sure you save it as I may need a copy of it later.
    • Reboot your computer into safe mode again

    Run about:buster again following the same instructions as above, this time without the restart at the end

    Now run CWShredder. Click I Agree, then Fix and then Next, let it fix everything it asks about.

    Now run SpSeHjfix. A log will be saved in the same folder that you put the exe into. Please post the results of that log in your next reply.

    Now run CleanUp!. Click CleanUp and allow it to delete all the temporary files.Reboot your computer into normal windows.


    After all that, please post back with how things went as well as the logs requested and a new HiJackThis log.

    Hi Rahina,
    Thanks for getting back to me. I had a feeling that this laptop was infected...if you think it would be less hassle I can wipe this drive clean and do a clean install of Windows. This laptop has recently been given to me and has no important data on it. I have attemtped to start the process that you have outlined however the Cleanup.exe will not install (downloads fine but error message appears when trying to install).
    I look forward to hearing back from you, thank you again, I appreciate your time and assistance.
    Kind Regards,
    Byron172

    Thanks Rahina,
    I have followed your instructions and attached is a copy of the three log files requested. Unfortunately I have been unable to run Cleanup.exe, do you have any suggestions as to how I can obtain an uncorrupted copy of the application file or perhaps I could use a different clean up tool? Again, I appreciate your help with this.....Cheers

    Did you need me to post another HJTL file or can you still use the one submitted in the previous reply?

    G'day Rahina,
    Hope you had a nice weekend.
    I think my previous post didn't come through so I apologise if you have already recieved the following info.
    Moveit did not find the dll file and search for sysie and systemp dll's revealed no results.
    I cannot attached the Kaspersky log for your perusal because there is too much text in the file to paste into the thread and the file is too large to attach (1.2mb) any suggestions how to get it to you?:

    Note: I am performing these scans in a new user profile to the original one set up on this computer, because I was having trouble connecting to the internet in the original profile . If you need HJT logs or active scan performed on other user profile let me know. (The new profile does have administrator privileges).

    I have posted the parts of the scan that seem most relevant:

    Hello There, we still have few things to do ;)

    Download CCleaner If you don't want the Yahoo toolbar, be sure to UNcheck that option when installing the software or update.

    Instructions for using CCleaner:
    1. Launch CCleaner and under Options > Advanced > UNcheck "Only delete files in Windows Temp folder older than 48 hours".
    2. A pop up box will appear advising this process will permanently delete files from your system.
    3. To protect logon cookies that you wish to retain, under Options > Cookies. Select and using the arrow move those cookies to the "Cookies to keep" column.
    4. Then select the items you wish to clean up.
      1. In the Windows Tab:
        • Clean all entries in the "Internet Explorer" section.
        • Clean all the entries in the "Windows Explorer" section.
        • Clean all entries in the "System" section.
        • Clean all entries in the "Advanced" section.
        • Clean any others that you choose.
      2. In the Applications Tab:
        • Clean all in the Firefox/Mozilla section if you use it.
        • Clean all in the Opera section if you use it.
        • Clean Sun Java in the Internet Section.
        • Please UNcheck "Utilities" (i.e., Ad-Aware, ewido and other security program logs.)
    5. Click the "Run Cleaner" button and it will scan and clean your system.
    6. Click exit.
    7. Shutdown/restart the computer.

    _______________________________
    • Please double-click OTMoveIt.exe to run it.
    • Copy the file paths below to the clipboard by highlighting ALL of them and pressing CTRL + C (or, after highlighting, right-click and choose copy):

      C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM32\ia.dll
      C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM32\SBUtils
      C:\Program Files\Yahoo!

    • Return to OTMoveIt, right click on the "Paste List of Files/Folders to be moved" window and choose Paste.
    • Click the red Moveit! button.
    • Copy everything on the Results window to the clipboard by highlighting ALL of them and pressing CTRL + C (or, after highlighting, right-click and choose copy), and paste it on your next reply.
    • Close OTMoveIt
    If a file or folder cannot be moved immediately you may be asked to reboot the machine to finish the move process. If you are asked to reboot the machine choose Yes.

    _______________________________

    Please open HiJackThis and scan. Check the boxes next to all the entries listed below

    O2 - BHO: Yahoo! Toolbar Helper - {02478D38-C3F9-4EFB-9B51-7695ECA05670} - C:\Program Files\Yahoo!\Companion\Installs\cpn\yt.dll (file missing)
    O3 - Toolbar: Yahoo! Toolbar - {EF99BD32-C1FB-11D2-892F-0090271D4F88} - C:\Program Files\Yahoo!\Companion\Installs\cpn\yt.dll (file missing)


    Now close all windows other than HiJackThis, then click Fix Checked. Close HiJackThis

    _______________________________

    Now you should Set a New Restore Point to prevent possible reinfection from an old one. Some of the malware you picked up could have been saved in System Restore. Since System Restore is a protected directory, your tools can not access it to delete these bad files which sometimes can reinfect your system. Setting a new restore point AFTER cleaning your system will help prevent this and enable your computer to "roll-back" to a clean working state.

    The easiest and safest way to do this is:
    • Go to Start > Programs > Accessories > System Tools and click "System Restore".
    • Choose the radio button marked "Create a Restore Point" on the first screen then click "Next". Give the R.P. a name then click "Create". The new point will be stamped with the current date and time. Keep a log of this so you can find it easily should you need to use System Restore.
    • Then go to Start > Run and type: Cleanmgr
    • Click "OK".
    • Click the "More Options" Tab.
    • Click "Clean Up" in the System Restore section to remove all previous restore points except the newly created one.

        Now that you are clean, please follow these simple steps in order to keep your computer clean and secure:
        • Disable and Enable System Restore.
        If you are using Windows ME or XP then you should disable and re-enable system restore to make sure there are no infected files found in a restore point.

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

        Managing Windows Millenium System Restore

          Windows XP System Restore Guide

          Reenable system restore with instructions from tutorial above

          [*]Make your Internet Explorer more secure - This can be done by following these simple instructions:
          [*]From within Internet Explorer click on the Tools menu and then click on Options.
          [*]Click once on the Security tab
          [*]Click once on the Internet icon so it becomes highlighted.
          [*]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.
          [*]Next press the Apply button and then the OK to exit the Internet Properties page.
          • 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
          • 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.
          • 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
          • 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.
          • 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
          • 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
          • 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
          • 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.

          here are some additional utilities that will enhance your safety
          • IE/Spyad <= IE/Spyad places over 4000 websites and domains in the IE Restricted list which will severely impair attempts to infect your system. It basically prevents any downloads (Cookies etc) from the sites listed, although you will still be able to connect to the sites.
          • MVPS Hosts file <= The MVPS Hosts file replaces your current HOSTS file with one containing well know ad sites etc. Basically, this prevents your coputer from connecting to those sites by redirecting them to 127.0.0.1 which is your local computer
          • Google Toolbar <= Get the free google toolbar to help stop pop up windows.
          • Winpatrol <= Download and install the free version of Winpatrol. a tutorial for this product is located here:
            Using Winpatrol to protect your computer from malicious software
          Let me know if you still receive problems :)
