    CFScript

    Open notepad and copy/paste the text in the code box below into it:
    NOTE* make sure to only highlight and copy what is inside the quote box nothing out side of it.
    Also ..

    Pay particular attention to this :-

    Make sure the word File:: is on the first line of the text file you save (no blank line above it, & no space in front of it)
    Save this as CFScript.txt

    Then drag the CFScript.txt into ComboFix.exe as you see in the screenshot below.

    [IMG]

    This will start ComboFix again. After reboot, (in case it asks to reboot), post the contents of Combofix.txt in your next reply together with a fresh HJT log.

    Depending on whether HijackThis was run before or after the CFScript then that line is still there, its getting quite resilient.

    • Restart your computer and start pressing the F8 key on your keyboard.

    Run Hijackthis and Select Do A System Scan Only
    Put a check mark next to the following entries:
    O4 - HKLM\..\Policies\Explorer\Run: [rgWFEtNPPQ] I:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\ezclqdql\gxwzsbil.exe

    Select Fix Checked

  20. Blind Dragon TechSpot Evangelist Posts: 4,048

    You need to take ownership of the file, it's not of huge importance to do right away but when you delete the file do this:

    1. Right-click the file that you want to take ownership of, and then click Properties.
    2. Click the Security tab, and then click OK on the Security message (if one appears).
    3. Click Advanced, and then click the Owner tab.
    4. In the Name list, click Administrator, or click the Administrators group, and then click OK.

    The administrator or the Administrators group now owns the file. To change the permissions on the files and folders under this folder, go to step 5.
    5. Click Add.
    6. In the Enter the object names to select (examples) list, type the user or group account that you want to give access to the file. For example, type your user name or Administrator.
    7. Click OK.
    8. In the Group or user names list, click the account that you want, and then select the check boxes of the permissions that you want to assign that user.
    9. When you are finished assigning permissions, click OK.
