Several weeks ago when I ran my weekly SuperAntiSpyware scan a couple of threats came up. Usually my SAS has to remove a few tracking cookies, but that's all, this time it found something called Adware HBHelper and Browser Hijacker Deskbar. After rebooting my computer and running an SAS scan again there was no further evidence of these programs, but when we use Mozilla instead of Google being our homepage I get this Iminent Search page. I have reset Google as my hompage several times, but after a few days it reverts to this other page. Today when I was going through my program files to see if there was anything that I could delete (that we no longer use) I found program files for Iminent and Iminent toolbar. My first instinct was to delete them, but I know sometimes these types of programs can use other files on your computer.

So, my question is twofold. Can I delete the Iminent programs? and Do I need to run the 5 steps again? I rarely use my PC for anything personal anymore, I use my laptop and let the kids use this for their games and homework, etc. Still, would like to keep their information private. Looking forward to your help.

Hi Kendra, I think we've met before. From what you are saying, firstly, I would strongly recommend that you run the steps- again. You are being redirected and the [FONT=serif]Iminent[/FONT] Search [FONT=serif]sho[/FONT][FONT=serif]u[/FONT][FONT=serif]ldn't[/FONT] stay on the system. Chances are it will take more than a
[FONT=serif]delet[/FONT]e/reset to get rid of it, so let's have a look.

Please follow these steps: Preliminary Virus and Malware Removal.

NOTE: If you already have any of the scanning programs on the computer, please remove them and download the versions in these links.

When you have finished, leave the logs for review in your next reply .
NOTE: Logs must be pasted in the replies. Attached logs will not be reviewed.
=========================================
These won't violate their privacy. It may show if there is malware on a document, but the scans don't open the document and 'read the letter'.
========================================
My Guidelines: please read and follow:
  • Be patient. Malware cleaning takes time. I am also working with other members while I am helping you.
  • Read my instructions carefully. If you don't understand or have a problem, ask me. Follow the order of the tasks I give you. Order is crucial in cleaning process.
  • If you have questions, or if a program doesn't work, stop and tell me about it. Don't try to get around it yourself.
  • File sharing programs should be uninstalled or disabled during the cleaning process..
  • Observe these:
    [o] Don't follow directions given to someone else
    [o] Don't use any other cleaning programs or scans while I'm helping you.
    [o] Don't use a Registry cleaner or make any changes in the Registry.
    [o] Don't download and install new programs- except those I give you.
Threads are closed after 5 days if there is no reply.

Edit: I reviewed the thread I helped you with last Dec. You didn't particularly want to run the scans then either, but they found-and removed-a significant[FONT=serif] amount [/FONT]of malware. Also, remind me to give you information to rest the Cookies so SAS won't [FONT=serif]have[/FONT] to work so hard removing them!

==== End Of File ===========================
 
Bobbye

It's funny you should mention that because when I was giving my kids the "please don't download anything without asking me" speech this morning one of my sons mentioned that he thought it was the hamachi. He has a lot of friends who are gamers that ask him to download things so he can play certain games with them, most of these friends have their own computers, but I am still curious how his friends can download these things and not also be infected.

According to my son the Hamachi is so that he can play Minecraft on certain servers. So, if I keep this on my computer is this a safe program, or should I tell him that he can't play Minecraft on those servers? Since it appears that the Hamachi connects two computers is it possible for us to get a virus from someone else's network?

Also I forgot to mention that part of the reason I was cleaning out the program files is because my C drive is almost out of space, and that is when I noticed the Imminent program files and those files are what is taking up so much space. I think you will see in the logs how many GB are taken up on my C drive. I am no longer being redirected to the Iminent search page though, so that's a good start.

Thanks for your help
 
Kendra, The Imminent program has put toolbars, BHOs and other processes all over the system. Something you might want to include in the 'download speech.'

1. Be aware that many download screens have pre-checked boxes. If allowed, they add other processes to the ownload, some and some not- having to do with the program being downloaded.
2. If/When you go to run the download that you have saved to the desktop and get a choice of Standard or Custom Download, always choose Custom. Doing so will allow you to NOT choose and additional features the program is offering.

About how do some users get away with downloading and others, not:
It is not always the download itself causing the problem- it may be the site or the program that is used to download it. For instance a program called Application Updater is on your system. I will be removing it with the script because it's Adware made by Spigot Inc. which comes bundled with other software. This startup entry is installed as a Windows service> Service Name: Application Updater
-------------------------------
About the Hard Drive:
I can help you to some extent free up some space on the hard drive. The Windows install was in 2006. There are 14 Acer programs on the system. Did you ever check them out to see what you used and what you didn't want? It's one of those things that is best done soon after getting the computer- otherwise one forgets to check. Remind me when we finish up to give you the list of the Acer programs- you can check them out, find out what they do and determine if you use them. If not, they can be uninstalled.

Another source of filling up the hard drive is the 25 plug-ins on Firefox. They all need 'living space' too!

There are also 2 backup programs on the system: Carbonite came pre-installed. You also have NTI Backup Now 5 and NTI Backup Now Standard. Chances are you don't use both- possible neither.

There are 2 antivirus programs installed: Avast and Norton Internet Security. Maybe Norton came pre-installed but you don't use it. But it should be uninstalled: you can use this> Norton Removal Tool
==============================================
I'd like you to run the following. After Combofix, I will write some script to remove some entries and guide you into some programs to be uninstalled.
Please note: If you have previously run Combofix and it's still on the system, please uninstall it. Then download the current version and do the scan: Uninstall directions, if needed
  • 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 Combofix from HERE or HEREand save to the desktop
  • Double click combofix.exe
    cf-icon.jpg
    & follow the prompts.
  • If prompted for Recovery Console, please allow.
  • Once installed, you should see a blue screen prompt that says:
    • The Recovery Console was successfully installed.[/b]
    • Note: If Combofix was downloaded to a flash drive, the Recovery Console will not install- just bypass and go on.[/b]
    • Note: No query will be made if the Recovery Console is already on the system.
  • .Close/disable all anti virus and anti malware programs
    (If you need help with this, please see HERE)
  • .Close any open browsers.
  • .Before you run the Combofix scan, please disable any security software you have running.
  • .Click on Yes, to continue scanning for malware
  • .If Combofix asks you to update the program, allow
  • When the scan completes , a report will be generated-it will open a text window. Please paste the C:\ComboFix.txt in next reply..
Re-enable your Antivirus software.
Note 1:Do not mouse-click Combofix's window while it is running. That may cause it to stall.
Note 2:If you receive an error "Illegal operation attempted on a registry key that has been marked for deletion", restart the computer.
Note 3:CF disconnects your machine from the internet. The connection is automatically restored before CF completes its run. If CF runs into difficulty and terminates prematurely, the connection can be manually restored by restarting your machine.

After the eset scan I did create a text document, but I didn't look closely at it. When I opened it this morning this was all that was there

C:\Users\Dad\Downloads\gimp_app_1201.exe Win32/InstallIQ application

Not only was my C drive almost out of space, but the bar that shows how full it is was highlighted in red. Today it is back to it's normal color. So, there are still programs I will be removing once we are done with the cleaning process, but things seem to be better on this end.

You are right though, so many of the programs on here we have never used and I waited to see if we would use them, but things like that get moved to the bottom of the priority list. I also tend not to delete programs when I'm not sure what they are because I don't want to remove something that my computer needs, so some of the Acer programs we don't use, but I may have left them because they came with the computer and I am paranoid about which programs are necessary for the computer to run and which ones are just extras. My kids also have a lot of games on here they don't play anymore, so when we're finished I will spend next week cleaning the computer.

Thanks for your help. Honestly last month when my SAS found the Browser Hijacker my first instinct was to come here and do the Malware removal again, but I guess I didn't want to believe that my computer was infected again, or maybe I was too proud to admit that my kids had infected my computer again. I appreciate that you don't get tired of helping me.
 
Okay, Mom, let's see if we can clean up the system for your special day! I will comment that the Iminent program is overly generous in putting processes on the system! I think I have them all included in the script below:

Please run this 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> click on Format> Uncheck 'Word Wrap> and copy/paste the text in the code below into it:

Bobbye--in my attempt to run the custom Script I accidentally clicked on Combofix again. I did attempt to close the program, but it would not let me and I know once the window opens I can stall it if I click on it, so I let the program run again. So I thought I would paste that log just to make sure that I did not mess anything up. If everything still looks the same then just let me know it's okay to run the Custom Script, OT Move it and TFC and I will get that done today. I will be more careful next time. Thanks

The problem I seem to be having is that I cannot find the ComboFix.exe file to save the CFScript to. The CFScript won't save in the ComboFix folder because when I click on it it says "No items match your search" I know ComboFix is still on my computer, so how can I find it to save CFScript to it? Or can I save it somewhere else and then still drag it over to ComboFix? Wouldn't think it would be this hard to locate a program. I searched for Combofix in the search bar as well and it said that no items match my search. Thanks
 
It's important that you save Combofix to the desktop when you download it.
Then when you copy the script, it's important that you Save this as CFScript.txt, in the same location as ComboFix.exe which will be the desktop.
If you don't do that, you won't be able to drag the script as instructed.

If you did not do this originally, please uninstall the Combofix you have now as follows:

Click START> then RUN> type Combofix /Uninstall in the runbox and click OK. Note the space between the X and the U, it needs to be there.

Then download Combofix again> make sure you save to the desktop:

Please disable the security before you do the scan:

Follow these directions to copy the script> Save this as CFScript.txt, in the same location as ComboFix.exe which will be the desktop. Now you should be able to drag the script.

Please run this 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> click on Format> Uncheck 'Word Wrap> and copy/paste the text in the code below into it:

OTM by OldTimer - Version 3.1.19.0 log created on 05162012_190203
 
Okay, I am done with the steps you instructed, except I am still deleting some of the Acer programs that I don't use. My son says he is not using Hamachi right now, so I would prefer to just delete it altogether. I assume that I can just do that by uninstalling it like the other programs? Also I have Hijack This on my computer. I am not sure from what since I don't recall ever using that here in the malware removal forum. I would like to delete that, but I know some of the malware removal programs have to be uninstalled a certain way, is that the case here as well?

Thanks

As I was getting ready for bed this evening I was looking through my Avast logs and noticed that it found a virus on it's scan yesterday. However, the virus that it found was in the temporary internet files. Would it have been deleted when I ran the Temp File Cleaner (or the Combofix) or do I need to run Malware bytes, gmer, dds again? I cannot figure out how to copy or paste the Avast scan log, but I can type out what it says if you need more information. Avast moved the virus to the chest, but other than the computer saying that it found a virus my system is not giving me any issues.
 
Did you copy all the entries I had in the CF Script? All of the Iminent entries I had written script for removal are still loading.

I don't want the Avast log. Did it quarantine what it found? Let's update and scan with Eset again to be sure please.

You can uninstall HJT the usual way> Add/Remove Programs, then delete program file using Windows Explorer>>>OR>>>> you could wait until we finish and I have you remove the tools and logs.
 
My CFScript log looks exactly the same as what you had here, and I dragged it into Combofix just as instructed. The Combofix on my desktop says ComboFix shortcut, but when I dragged the script there to launched Combofix. Would you like me to try it again?

Avast did Quarantine the viruses it found. Here is the eset log:

C:\_OTM\MovedFiles\05162012_190203\C_Users\Dad\Downloads\gimp_app_1201.exe Win32/InstallIQ application
 
You need to get this configured correctly:

Instructions: .......................................................................................What you have:
Download Combofix from HERE or HERE and save to the desktop | Running from: c:\users\Dad\Downloads\ComboFix.exe

Instructions:.................................................................................... What you have:
Save this as CFScript.txt, in the same location as ComboFix.exe | Command switches used :: c:\users\Dad\Desktop\CFScript.lnk

Examples of what you should see:

Running from: c:\documents and settings\Dad\Desktop\ComboFix.exe

Command switches used :: c:\documents and settings\Dad\Desktop\CFscript.txt

The code won't work when it's in one place and the program is in another. The Command switch has a .txt file extension, not .ink

(When finished, it will produce a log for you at C:\ComboFix.txt)

Uninstall Combofix. Reinstall correctly. Then run the fix
 
I already uninstalled and then reinstalled ComboFix. There is no option for me to save it to the desktop. The only two options that come up are Save File or Cancel. Once it downloads and I click on it that starts running the program. If there is a way to save it somewhere other than where my computer saves it I am not given that option (perhaps that is an issue with my downloads manager). And I did save the CFSCript as a .txt file, so I am not sure why it has an .ink file extension.

Let me know how I can save ComboFix to the desktop so that I can run the fix that you requested.
 
You can choose a location on your computer where downloads should be saved by default. This means that whenever you using Save As in the File> Save As or when you choose to Save a download, it will automatically default to the location you have set.
You may find that setting the Default Download Location to your Desktop the most [LEFT][FONT=serif]convenient.[/FONT][/LEFT] If you want to move the file later, you can. If you want to delete the file, it will be most handy on the Desktop. For the cleaning and scanning programs we use, almost all are directed to be saved to the desktop.

Set Default Download Location in Browsers:

Chrome:
Open Chrome> Customize and control> Options> Under the Hood> Downloads> Change> Select Desktop> OK
(Don't check 'ask where to save each time....')

Firefox:
Open Firefox> Tools> Options> Main/General> Downloads Section> Save Files to> Browse> Navigate to and select Desktop> OK

IE9
Open IE> Gear icon> View Downloads> Options> Browse to and select Desktop> OK

There may be a slight difference in the path dependent on the browser version. There may also be a box to check to "Ask me the location each time". I do not asvise checking that box.

I changed the Downloads so they will download to the Desktop and I ran Combofix, but I still could not get the CFScript to run. I keep getting this message
c:\Users\Dad\Desktop\Desktop\ComboFix.exe The directory name is invalid.

So, I thought it created a folder on the desktop to save them into, so I went back into Firefox to change it so that it saved directly to the desktop, but then when I tried to uninstall it so I could re-download and install it I got the same message about the directory name being invalid. So, now I can't uninstall it, and I can't get the CFScript to run.

When I go into to the Firefox settings to have it download to the desktop, no matter what I click on it comes up with the
c:\Users\Dad\Desktop\Desktop as the path for the folder, even when I just click on Desktop and then click select folder.

Guess I am going to need more help to get this figured out so I can run the CF Script
