==== End Of File ===========================
 
Welcome to TechSpot! I'll help with the redirect issue- are the PCs networked through a router? I see Netgear and DLink. Although I don't see it here- it would usually shows up in Mbam, there is a malware infection named DNS Changer.

Although I will need a separate thread for the logs of each of the 3 computers, if they are networked, give this a try:
You will need to do a DNS Flush, then reset your router.
First, one the system that has the router hard wired to it, do the following:

Start> Run> type cmd> enter> at the C prompt type ipconfig /flushdns (note space before the /)

Exit the Command prompt when finished and shut the system down.-

  • [1]. Shut down your computer, and any other computer connected to your router.
    [2]. On the back of the router, there should be a small hole or button labelled RESET. Using a bent paper clip or similar item, hold that in continuously for twenty seconds.
    [3]. Unplug the router. Wait sixty seconds.
    [4].Now holding again the reset button, plug it back in. Continue holding the reset button for twenty seconds. Unplug the router again.
    [5].With the router unplugged, start your computer.
    [6].Connect to the router again. The turn the router back on.
    [7].When it stabilizes, reboot your workstation and try to access the internet. If you have any issues, access the Router configuration page and re-enter your authentication information.
    [8]. Reboot the system and test the internet. You may have to reconfigure the router settings based on your setup.

Check for the redirect on the computer that has the router hard wired to it. Do you still have the redirect?
=========================================
We'll go on from there, run additional scans on this PC, PC#1/XP. PC#2/XP will be the other Windows XP machine and PC#3/7 will be the Win 7 machine.

Looking at the Error Events, it appears that you may not have the McAfee program set up right-Services and Dependencies look like theyre not in sync.
 
Note: you can uninstall the v1.9.9 version of HijackThis. It is out of date. I will have you run it later and will give link for current version. Also, I noticed you put this version in a temp file:
2011-01-29 15:15:23 388608 ----a-w- c:\temp\HijackThis.exe
When I have you download and run it, I will have you put it in it's own directory. HijackThis makes backups and having them in a temp file isn't good.

I also noticed you put Mbam in a temp file: You download and save to your desktop. There, you Double-click mbam-setup.exe and follow the prompts to install the program. So I shouldn't be seeing this:
2011-01-23 03:52:44 7734208 ----a-w- c:\temp\mbam-setup-1.50.1.1100.exe
 
Bobbye,

Thank you for the help. I will copy your question/comment with double parenthesis and will follow with a response.

((you can uninstall the v1.9.9 version of HijackThis. ))

Done


((I also noticed you put Mbam in a temp file: You download and save to your desktop. There, you Double-click mbam-setup.exe and follow the prompts to install the program.))

I uninstalled Mbam and downloaded it to my desktop. I ran the quick scan and have posted the log file at the end of the reply.


((are the PCs networked through a router? I see Netgear and DLink. Although I don't see it here- it would usually shows up in Mbam, there is a malware infection named DNS Changer.

Although I will need a separate thread for the logs of each of the 3 computers, if they are networked, give this a try:
You will need to do a DNS Flush, then reset your router.))


((Check for the redirect on the computer that has the router hard wired to it. Do you still have the redirect?))

The the 3 PC's access the internet through the router which is connected directly to the cable modem. All 3 PC's connect to the router wirelessly. The PC's are not networked in terms of sharing files. Do you want me to proceed with the DNS flush and router reset?


((Looking at the Error Events, it appears that you may not have the McAfee program set up right-Services and Dependencies look like theyre not in sync.))

I don't understand this comment.

Can we troubleshoot one computer at a time?

Yes, go ahead with the DNS flush and router reset. Since they all connect through the router and all three are being redirected, it's a place to start. Did you by chance use a flash drive to copy files from one computer to the other?
=======================
Then you'll set up the 3 threads and put logs for each on their own thread. Nothing is showing up in Mbam. Please be sure to follow the program directions. When it says 'download and save to the desktop, then double click on the setup to run, that's what you do.
BTW, you don't need to copy my instructions> too much work! Just don't say 'it', so I'll know what is being referred to.

Bobbye,

I did the DNS flush and the router reset. 2 of the computers have been working fine with no redirects for the last two days. I am having some trouble with the wireless zero configuration on the other computer so I have not been able to test that one.

My family does have a few flash drives and once in a while they do get used among the different computers.

Should I just monitor the computers and stop trouble shooting for now?

Thanks
 
A couple of issues here- if the flush and reset worked, we will need to find the malware that caused the DNS problem. When you told me that "All 3 of my home PCs are having redirect problems" it was a reasonable assumption that the DSN and router settings had been changed. But what I had you do did not remove malware.

Since the computers aren't networked, it is either a coincidence that all 3 got infected with the same malware separately- although I'm not big on the 'coincidence' thing, it is possible that if all 3 users went to same site with script or opened the same infected email or attachment and got infected, it could happen. But it is more likely that one (or more) of the flash drives is infected and spread the malware when used on the different systems.

We can disinfect flash drives. But I need to have a better idea of what the malware is, so please go ahead and run the Eset scan and Combofix on PC#1.

Also, you should be aware of this Error from the Event Viewer:
1/29/2011 1:19:21 PM, error: Ntfs [55] - The file system structure on the disk is corrupt and unusable. Please run the chkdsk utility on the volume C:.

Did you run the chkdsk for this? If not, do this please:
Click on My Computer> Right click on the Local Drive (C)> Properties> Tools> Click on the Error Check button> Check both boxes on the screen that comes up> OK> Apply> OK> close the message and reboot the computer and let the chkdsk begin. Let it run until complete. It will automatically reboot when finished.

If this is done as a part of your routine maintenance, it will take less time than if not done at all. But it will take time and must finish.

NOTE: Don't be tempted to download all the scan on to a flash drive and pass it around to the 3 PCs!
 
Bobbye,

Thanks
 
I am having some trouble with the wireless zero configuration on the other computer

Please tell me what problem you're having with. this. Specify if you are referring to the WZCSVC which runs are svchost.exe or the process running as 1xconfig.exe in the TaskManager. I spent weeks chasing down a problem with WZCSVC starting on my laptop and disconnecting me from the internet. I'll spare you what went on in between, but I may have a fix for you. I also have 3 computers connecting through a wireless router hardwired to the desktop which I rarely use. But laptop kept dropping internet connection.
 
The machine which is not connecting to the wireless network is a XP machine. If I look at the status for the connection it says " Windows cannot configure the wireless connection. If you want windows to configure this wireless connection, start the wireless zero configuration (WZC) service.

In order to start WZC I go the the services window by running %SystemRoot%\system32\services.msc /s. I then go to wireless zero configuration. I check to see that the startup type is set to automatic and I start the service.

I then go to view the properties for the wireless connection and I see only the general and advanced tab. The wireless networks tab does not show up. On this machine, the XP machine which is connected, the wirless networks tab shows up and that is where I have checked the box next to "Use Windows to configure my wireless network settings"

I then go back to the services window and see that the WZC service has turned off. The service only stays on for a few minutes.

The adapter is a D-Link. When I try to run the D-link connection manager it appears that the application is executing but the window never appears. When I look at the processes list I do see that wirelesscm.exe is started by the D-link connection manager icon.

Thanks
 
Try choosing the InterProWireless to connect instead of Windows. Stop the WZCSRV Service.

I then go to view the properties for the wireless connection and I see only the general and advanced tab. The wireless networks tab does not show up.

Right click on Control Panel> Network Connections> Wireless Connection> there is no 'wireless tab' becuase you're already in the wireless properties.I only have General and Advanced alsp
 
Where do i find the details for InterProWireless? Is this a service like WZCSRV? I did a quick search and I only came up with Intel Pro Wireless.

Right click on Control Panel> Network Connections> Wireless Connection> there is no 'wireless tab' becuase you're already in the wireless properties.I only have General and Advanced alsp

Following your steps I also only have the two tabs. The window is labeled "wireless network connection STATUS"

I get the three tabs if I do the following which brings up the "wireless network connection PROPERTIES" window
Control Panel> Network Connections>Right click wireless connection>properties
 
Control Panel> Network Connections> right click on the Wireless Connection> Properties> General tab> 'Connect using' box s/b/ set to IntelProWireless.

Intel Pro Wireless is correct. You found the right thing! And I had an extra right click in. I have been having a really tough time with my dyslexia- lots of stress and fatigue. Please accept my apology for careless mistakes- I just don't see them.

I offered that as a suggestion, hoping it might help you also. That is how my wireless connection is set. Somehow, on my laptop, a service tech set the WZCSRV Service to Automatic. I would connect, then go right down. It took me weeks to find that. I have disabled it many times but it goes back to automatic and when it starts, my connection is broken. I have to go into the Services and Stop it.

It may not be applicable to you, but I thought I'd suggest it since I had experienced a problem with the same service.
 
Bobbye,

Control Panel> Network Connections> right click on the Wireless Connection> Properties> General tab> 'Connect using' box s/b/ set to IntelProWireless.

Both XP machines only have one option here, one being the Netgear wireless adapter and the other the D-link adapter. You must need to have a IntelProWireless adapter installed in order to have this option. I may just replace the problem computer or I start over by reformatting the hard drive. It is an old P4 machine and is the one the kids use the most.


Have you had a chance to look at the Eset scan and Combofix logs?

Thanks
 
Got sidetracked on the Service! The Eset log is clean and there are only 2 entries to remove form Combofix.

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:Be sure to scroll down to include ALL lines.
Code:
File::
Registry::
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\software\microsoft\security center\Monitoring\McAfeeAntiVirus]
"DisableMonitoring"=-
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\software\microsoft\security center\Monitoring\McAfeeFirewall]
"DisableMonitoring"=-
Save this as CFScript.txt, in the same location as ComboFix.exe
CFScriptB-4.gif


Referring to the picture above, drag CFScript into ComboFix.exe

When finished, it will produce a log for you at C:\ComboFix.txt . Please paste in your next reply.
====================
Are you still getting redirects on this machine? Please run the following as one last check for bad entries:
Download HijackThis http://download.bleepingcomputer.com/hijackthis/HijackThis.zipand save to your desktop.
  • Extract it to a directory on your hard drive called c:\HijackThis.
  • Then navigate to that directory and double-click on the hijackthis.exe file.
  • When started click on the Scan button and then the Save Log button to create a log of your information.
  • The log file and then the log will open in notepad. Be sure to click on Format> Uncheck Word Wrap when you open Notepad
  • Click on "Edit > Select All" then click on "Edit > Copy" to copy the entire contents of the log.
  • Come back here to this thread and paste (Ctrl+V) the log in your next reply.

NOTE: Do NOT have HijackThis fix anything yet! Most of what it finds will be harmless or even required.

What worked for me with WZCSRV, might not be appropriate for your machine. I just thought it was worth mentioning since it took me a while to find the problem and know what to do about it.
 
Bobbye,

Here are the logs you requested. The browser has not redirected since you had me do the DNS flush and router reset.

Thanks for all the help
 
Looking good! I don't see any signs of malware. I did note there are several auto-updates running> Java, Adobe< RealPlayer, for instance. You might consider taking these off of Startup. Do you really want multiple programs accessing the internet from your computer, several times a day, looking for update that might only come every few months?

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.
    CF_Uninstall-1.jpg
  • 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.


Empty the Recycle Bin
Let me know if you have any more questions.
 
You're very welcome! Leaving some tips to help with security, then closing thread.
Tips for added security and safer browsing:
  1. Browser Security Settings: Custom is fine if the user did the settings. Mine are Custom. Default is okay too, but sometimes too restrictive.
    This Tutorial will help guide you through Configuring Security Settings, Managing Active X Controls and other safety features: Make Internet Explorer safer.
  2. Have layered Security:
    • Antivirus Software(only one):Both of the following programs are free and known to be good:
      [o]Avira Free
      [o]Avast Home
    • Firewall (only one): Use bi-directional firewall. Both of the following programs are free and known to be good:
      [o]Comodo
      [o]Zone Alarm
    • Antispyware: I recommend all of the following:
      [o]Spywareblaster: SpywareBlaster protects against bad ActiveX. It places kill bits to stop bad Active X controls from being installed. Remember to update it regularly.
    [o]Download ZonedOut and save to your desktop. this replaces IE/Spyad and manages the Zones in Internet explorer. 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.
    For IE7 and IE8, Windows 2000 thru Vista. No Windows 7 yet.
    IE/Spyad is not longer being supported. If you have this on your system, you should replace it with the following program. Make sure your IE8 is Up-to-date before adding sites to your restricted zone.
    Known issue: If you have "immunized" your computer with Spybot Search and Destroy, and use ZonedOut to "Remove All" restricted sites - ZonedOut will remove your trusted sites as well. Note that if you remove Spybot Search and Destroys Immunization the problem goes away...
    [o]Replace the Host Files
    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.
    [o]Google Toolbar Get the free google toolbar to help stop pop up windows.
  3. Stay current on updates:
    [o] Visit the Microsoft Download Sitefrequently. You should get All updates marked Critical and the current SP updates.
    [o]Visit this Adobe Reader site often and make sure you have the most current update. Uninstall any earlier updates as they are vulnerabilities.
    [o]Check this site .Java Updates Stay current as most updates are for security. Uninstall any earlier versions in Add/Remove Programs.
  4. Reset Cookies to prevent Tracking Cookies:
    [o]For Internet Explorer: Internet Options (through Tools or Control Panel) Privacy tab> Advanced button> check 'override automatic Cookie handling'> check 'accept first party Cookies'> check 'Block third party Cookies'> check 'allow per session Cookies'> Apply> OK.
    [o]For Firefox: Tools> Options> Privacy> Cookies> check ‘accept Cookies from Sites’> Uncheck 'accept third party Cookies'> Set Keep until 'they expire'. This will allow you to keep Cookies for registered sites and prevent or remove others. (Note: for Firefox v3.5, after Privacy click on 'use custom settings for History.')
    I suggest using the following two add-on for Firefox. They will prevent the Tracking Cookies that come from ads and banners and other sources:
    AdBlock Plus
    Easy List
  5. Do regular Maintenance
    Remove Temporary Internet Files regularly:
    [o]ATF Cleaner by Atribune
    OR
    [o]TFC
    Disable and Enable System Restore:
    [o]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.
  6. Practice Safe Email Handling
    [o] Don't open email from anyone you don't know.
    [o] Don't open Attachments in the email. Safe to your desktop and scan for viruses using a right click
    [o] Don't leave your personal email address on the internet. Have a separate email account at one of the free web-based emails like Yahoo.
