    yossarian084,

    Your computer is infected by the Rbot worm, which has Backdoor functionality. This can give intruders complete control of your computer, logging key strokes, stealing information, etc. :(

    You are strongly advised to do the following immediately!:
    • Disconnect infected computer from the internet and from any networked computers until the computer can be cleaned.
    • Call all of your banks, credit card companies, financial institutions and inform them that you may be a victim of identity theft and to put a watch on your accounts or change all your account numbers.
    • From a clean computer, change *all* of your online passwords -- for ISP login, email, banks, financial accounts, PayPal, eBay, online companies, and any online forums or groups you belong to.
        Do NOT change passwords or do any transactions while using the infected computer because the attacker will get the new passwords and transaction information.
      Because of its backdoor functionality, your PC is very likely compromised and there is no way to be sure it can ever again be trusted. Many experts in the security community believe that once infected with this type of Trojan, the best course of action would be a reformat and reinstall of the OS. However, if you do not have the resources to reinstall your OS and would like me to attempt to clean your machine, I will be happy to do so.

      To help you make a more informed decision, please read the following articles: Should you have any questions, please feel free to ask

      Please let me know your decision and we'll get started with clean up if that's what you choose.

      Hi,

      Please avoid using Limewire or any other P2P programs while cleaning your computer. I suggest uninstalling it.

      Please do the following...

      1. Open HijackThis

      It's looking much better. Just a little left to do.

      1. Your Java is out of date. Older versions have vulnerabilities that malware can use to infect your system. Please follow these steps to remove older version Java components and update to the latest version...

      Updating Java:
      • Download the latest version of Java Runtime Environment (JRE) 6 update3.
      • Scroll down to where it says "The J2SE Runtime Environment (JRE) allows end-users to run Java applications."
      • Click the "Download" button to the right.
      • Check the box that says: "Accept License Agreement."
      • The page will refresh.
      • Click on the link to download Windows Offline Installation with or without Multi-language and save to your desktop.
      • Close any programs you may have running - especially your web browser.
      • Go to Start > Control Panel double-click on Add/Remove programs and remove the following...
        • Adobe Reader 7.0
        • Java(TM) 6 Update 2
      • Reboot your computer once all Java components are removed.
      • Then from your desktop double-click on jre-6u3-windows-i586-p.exe to install the newest version.
      2. Download and install the latest version of Adobe Reader

      Apart from that your HijackThis log is clean. How is the computer?

      Hi yossarian084,

      Those entries are harmless as there is no malicious website attached. However, we can try and remove them.

      I believe AVG Anti-Spyware is preventing them from going. Please disable it as follows:
      • Open AVG Anti-Spyware
      • Click on Change state next to Resident shield. It should now change to inactive.
      • Close AVG Anti-Spyware

      Open HijackThis and fix the following entries...

      R0 - HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Search,CustomizeSearch =


      Restart the computer and post a new HijackThis log;
