Hiya

Just got this filost thingy after having to rebinstall XP after a very bad month on the PC.

Whatever is going about at the moment is costing me time and money and it's very inconvenient.

Would appreciate anyones help and experience.

Hello and welcome to Techspot.

Boot into safe mode. See how HERE. http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/forums/tutorial61.html

Turn off system restore.(XP/ME only) See how HERE. http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/forums/tutorial56.html

In Windows Explorer, turn on "Show all files and folders, including hidden and system". See how HERE. http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/forums/tutorial62.html

Click start/run and type regsvr32 /u C:\WINDOWS\system32\vbsys2.dll into the run box and press the enter key. Note the spaces between the 2 and the forward slash and again between the u and the c.

Run HJT with no other programmes open. Have HJT fix the following, by placing a tick in the little box next to( if there).

Fix all 016-DPF entries.

O17 - HKLM\System\CCS\Services\Tcpip\..\{004C4D04-42F2-490D-AE25-38D72C216EC4}: NameServer = 194.72.0.98 194.74.65.68

O17 - HKLM\System\CS1\Services\Tcpip\..\{004C4D04-42F2-490D-AE25-38D72C216EC4}: NameServer = 194.72.0.98 194.74.65.68

Only fix the above 017 entries, if they don`t belong to your iSP.

O21 - SSODL: SystemCheck2 - {54645654-2225-4455-44A1-9F4543D34546} - C:\WINDOWS\system32\vbsys2.dll

Click on the fix checked button.

Close HJT.

Locate and delete the following bold file(if there).

C:\WINDOWS\system32\vbsys2.dll

Reboot into normal mode and turn system restore back on.

Thanks for the info - I'll read thru carefully and set to getting rid of the
thingy.

Are there any places in the internet to avoid picking these up ?

Thanks again.
