You might want to copy and paste these instructions into a notepad file. Then you can have the file open in safe mode, so you can follow the instructions easier.

Boot into safe mode, under your normal user name(NOT THE ADMINISTRATOR ACCOUNT). See how HERE.

In Windows Explorer, turn on "Show all files and folders, including hidden and system". See how HERE.


Open your task manager, by holding down the ctrl and alt keys and pressing the delete key.

Click on the processes tab and end process for(if there).

WINHOST.EXE
ALCMTR.EXE

Close task manager.

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

R1 - HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Internet Settings,ProxyServer = 62.252.32.12:8080<Fix this if you didn`t set this proxy yourself or don`t know what it is.

O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [Alcmtr] ALCMTR.EXE

O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [Windows NetConfig] WINHOST.EXE

O4 - HKCU\..\RunOnce: [Windows NetConfig] WINHOST.EXE

Click on the fix checked button.

Close HJT.

Locate and delete the following bold files and/or directories(if there).

C:\WINDOWS\system32\WINHOST.EXE
C:\windows\ALCMTR.EXE

Reboot into normal mode and rehide your protected OS files.

Post a fresh HJT log.

Here it is the log

Your HJT log is now clean.

Turn off system restore.(XP/ME only) See how HERE.

Now, turn system restore back on. This will have deleted all your old restore points and any nasties that are in them. It will also have created a new, clean restore point.

If you have any further virus/spyware problems, please post in this thread.

Thank you very much very detailed explanations but now i have this problem.

Hi i have perviously installed Xp and vista on my hard drives. And On C: is Xp and on D: is vista
when i launch or restart my computer when it loads it says NTLDR missing and it says press control alt and delete to restart.

The only way i can make it to work properly is to keep taping f8 to bring me the boot screen up and select the hard drive inorder to load it..

Any one know this problem?

I suggest you start a new thread for your NTLDR missing problem in our Windows OS forum. You might also want to take a look at this thread HERE.
