Solved Another Google redirect

[dearpheona]

Since yesterday this has been happening. When I do a search and click on links, half the time I will get redirected to different junk sites.

Tried running Hitman and it found "partmgr.sys" but wasn't able to delete/fix it.

I've followed the steps posted and attached the logs from the programs.

Thanks in advance for any advice or help.

Welcome to TechSpot, dearpheona. I will help with the malware.

While I finish checking your logs, please do the following:
First, uninstall Hitman. This is nothing but a bundle of programs that are free on the internet. Most are being used without the permission of their authors. This program can cause a problem with the scans.
=========================
Please download SystemLook from one of the links below and save it to your Desktop.
Download Mirror #1
Download Mirror #2

• Double-click SystemLook.exe to run it.
• Copy the content of the following codebox into the main textfield:
  

  :filefind
   iastor.*

  
  [/code]
  
• Click the Look button to start the scan.
• When finished, a notepad window will open with the results of the scan. Please post this log in your next reply.

Note: The log can also be found on your Desktop entitled SystemLook.txt
===================================
Please download ComboFix from Here and save to your Desktop.

• 
  [1]. Do NOT rename Combofix unless instructed.
  [2].Close/disable all anti virus and anti malware programs so they do not interfere with the running of ComboFix.
  [3].Close any open browsers.
  [4]. Double click combofix.exe & follow the prompts to run.
• NOTE: Combofix will disconnect your machine from the Internet as soon as it starts. The connection is automatically restored before CF completes its run. If it does not, restart your computer to restore your connection.
  [5]. If Combofix asks you to install Recovery Console, please allow it.
  [6]. If Combofix asks you to update the program, always allow.
• Please do not attempt to re-connect your machine back to the Internet until Combofix has completely finished.
  [7]. A report will be generated after the scan. Please post the C:\ComboFix.txt in next reply.

Note: Do not mouseclick combofix's window while it's running. That may cause it to stall.
Note: Make sure you re-enable your security programs, when you're done with Combofix..
==========================================
Run Eset NOD32 Online AntiVirus Scanner HERE

• Tick the box next to YES, I accept the Terms of Use.
• Click Start
• When asked, allow the Active X control to install
• Disable your current Antivirus software. You can usually do this with its Notification Tray icon near the clock.
• Click Start
• Make sure that the option "Remove found threats" is Unchecked, and the option "Scan unwanted applications" is checked
• Click Scan
• Wait for the scan to finish
• Re-enable your Antivirus software.
• A logfile is created and located at C:\Program Files\EsetOnlineScanner\log.txt. Please include this on your post.

I will be setting up some script for you to run based on the logs you left here. Please include the SystemLook log, the Combofix report and Eset scan logs in your next report.

Please do not use any other cleaning program or run scans while I am helping you, unless I instruct you to. do not use a Registry cleaner or make any changes in the Registry.

I notice you are using both LimeWire and Vuze. These are both file sharing programs and I recommend that you uninstall both. If you choose not to uninstall them, please do not use either while I am helping clean your system.

Thanks Bobbye! Still running the scans. I'll paste them in a reply once they're finished up.

I also noticed this morning that whatever it is that's in my system has decided to kill my ability to install Microsoft updates.

Again, thanks so much for help with this.

I uninstalled Hitman and the scans have finished. Here are the logs:

P2P or 'file sharing Warning:
You have LimeWire, Azureus and Vuze on the system, all from 2008. Note: Even if you are using a "safe" P2P program, it is only the program that is safe. We recommend uninstalling P2P or file sharing programs for these reasons:

• As long as you are using file sharing networks and programs which are from sources that are not documented, you cannot verity that a download is legitimate.
• Malware writers use these program to include malicious content.
• Fie sharing is usually unmonitored and there is a danger that your private files might be accessed.
• The 'sharing' also includes malware that the shared system has on it.
• Files that are illegal can be spread through file sharing.

Please read the information on P2P Warning to help you better understand these dangers.

I can include their removal in the script I'm writing for you if you'd like. If you do not want to uninstall the programs, please do not use them while I am helping clean the system.

Let me know.

 

[dearpheona]

I hate to say it but I would like to keep Limewire and Vuze,

 

[Bobbye]

Okay- but don't use now.

Custom CFScript

• 
  [1]. Close any open browsers.
  [2]. Close/disable all anti virus and anti malware programs so they do not interfere with the running of ComboFix.
  [3]. Open notepad and copy/paste the text in the code below into it:

Here is the log

 

[Bobbye]

I'd like you to run System Look again with slightly different file name:

Please download SystemLook from one of the links below and save it to your Desktop.
Download Mirror #1
Download Mirror #2

• Double-click SystemLook.exe to run it.
• Copy the content of the following codebox into the main textfield:
  

  :filefind
   iastor.sys

  
  [/code]
  
• Click the Look button to start the scan.
• When finished, a notepad window will open with the results of the scan. Please post this log in your next reply.

Note: The log can also be found on your Desktop entitled SystemLook.txt

Let me have the log please.By the way, did you know that once you have this group work on your system, they install their calling call? Geek Squad 24 Hour Computer Support

How is the system running now?

It's running fantastic! No more redirects! Thank you so much for your help!!!

And The Geek Squad stuff has been on there since I purchased this computer, I think. I got it from Best Buy so it's probably part of the software they include on all their products.

 

[Bobbye]

So problems have been resolved? That's a good thing! As for the Geek Squad entry, I'd remove it- but it's not an issue.

Removing all of the tools we used and the files and folders they created

• Uninstall ComboFix and all Backups of the files it deleted
• Click START> then RUN
• Now type Combofix /Uninstall in the runbox and click OK. Note the space between the X and the U, it needs to be there.
  
  

• Download OTCleanIt by OldTimer and save it to your Desktop.
• Double click OTCleanIt.exe.
• Click the CleanUp! button.
• If you are prompted to Reboot during the cleanup, select Yes.
• The tool will delete itself once it finishes.

Note: If you receive a warning from your firewall or other security programs regarding OTC attempting to contact the internet, please allow it to do so.

• You should now set a new Restore Point and remove the old restore points to prevent infection from any previous Restore Points.
• Go to Start > All Programs > Accessories > System Tools
• Click "System Restore".
• Choose "Create a Restore Point" on the first screen then click "Next".
• Give the Restore Point a name> click "Create".
  
• Go back and follow the path to > System Tools.
  [*]Choose Disc Cleanup
  [*]Click "OK" to select the partition or drive you want.
  [*]Click the "More Options" Tab.
  [*]Click "Clean Up" in the System Restore section to remove all previous Restore Points except the newly created one.

Let me know if you need any more help.

 

[dearpheona]

The problem is gone and my computer is back to running great. Thank you so much for your help... you've been absolutely amazing! I'm so grateful for this!!

 

[Bobbye]

You're very welcome. Here are tips to help you stay clean:

Please follow these simple steps to keep your computer clean and secure:
1.Disable and Enable System Restore: See System Restore Guide This will help you understand what this is, why you need to clean and set restore points and what information is in them.
2.Stay current on updates:

• Visit the Microsoft Download Sitefrequently. You should get All updates marked Critical and the current SP updates: Windows XP> SP2, SP3.
• Visit this Adobe Reader site often and make sure you have the most current update. Uninstall any earlier updates as they are vulnerabilities.
• Check this site often.Java Updates Stay current as most updates are for security. Uninstall any earlier versions in Add/Remove Programs.

3.Make Internet Explorer safer. Follow the suggestions HERE This Tutorial will help guide you through Configuring Security Settings, Managing Active X Controls and other safety features.
4.Remove Temporary Internet Files regularly: Use ATF Cleaner by Atribune or TFC
5. Use an AntiVirus Software(only one)
See Virus, Spyware, and Malware Protection and Removal Resources

6.Use a good, bi-directional firewall(one software firewall) I recommend either of these software firewalls.- both are free and good:
Comodo or Zone Alarm
7.Consider these programs for Extra Security

• Spywareblaster: SpywareBlaster protects against bad ActiveX. It places kill bits to stop bad Active X controls from being installed. Remember to update it regularly.
• IE/Spyad This 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 files This replaces your current HOSTS file with one containing well know ad sites etc. Basically, this prevents your computer 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.

If I can be of further assistance, please let me know.
