Wow, sorry that happened!

ESET Online Scan

Please run a free online scan with the ESET Online Scanner

• Tick the box next to YES, I accept the Terms of Use

• When asked, allow the ActiveX control to install, or it will ask to download an installer. Please do so an install it.

Clean up System Restore

Now, to get you off to a clean start, we will be creating a new Restore Point, then clearing the old ones to make sure you do not get reinfected, in case you need to "restore back."

To manually create a new Restore Point

• Go to Control Panel and select System and Maintenance
• Select System
• On the left select Advance System Settings and accept the warning if you get one
• Select System Protection Tab
• Select Create at the bottom
• Type in a name I.e. Clean
• Select Create

Now we can purge the infected ones

• Go back to the System and Maintenance page
• Select Performance Information and Tools
• On the left select Open Disk Cleanup
• Select Files from all users and accept the warning if you get one
• In the drop down box select your main drive I.e. C
• For a few moments the system will make some calculations:
  
• Select the More Options tab
  
• In the System Restore and Shadow Backups select Clean up
  
• Select Delete on the pop up
• Select OK
• Select Delete

Run OTC to remove our tools

To remove all of the tools we used and the files and folders they created, please do the following:
Please download OTC.exe by OldTimer:

• Save it to your Desktop.
• Double click OTC.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 any tool, file or folder (belonging to the program we have used) hasn't been deleted, please delete it manually.

Purge old temporary files

NOTE: If you already have this installed, you don't have to reinstall it.

Please download CCleaner Slim and save it to your Desktop - Alternate download link

When the file has been saved, go to your Desktop and double-click on ccsetupxxx_slim.exe
Follow the prompts to install the program.

• Double-click the CCleaner shortcut on the desktop to start the program.
• A prompt will ask you if you want CCleaner to do a check to see what cookies it needs to keep. Allow that operation.
• On the Cleaner tab, click on Run Cleaner on the bottom-right to run the program.
• Important: Make sure that ALL browser windows are closed before selecting Run Cleaner, or it will ask if you want the program to close them for you (when you do this, all unsaved data may be lost in the browser).

Caution: Only use the Registry feature if you are very familiar with the registry.
Always back up your registry before making any changes. Exit CCleaner after it has completed it's process.

Security Check

Please download Security Check by screen317 from SpywareInfoforum.org or Changelog.fr.

• Save it to your Desktop.
• Double click SecurityCheck.exe and follow the onscreen instructions inside of the black box.
• A Notepad document should open automatically called checkup.txt; please post the contents of that document.

I don't think anything like that has to do with it...let's try the following:

Press start, then type in cmd - then hit Enter.

In the command prompt window, press in the following code exactly:


netsh winsock reset catalog

Then, exit out.

Do you have Internet after performing the above process?

Lets check some settings on your system:

1. Enter your Control Panel and double-click on Network Connections
2. Then right click on your Default Connection
   • Usually Local Area Connection for Cable and DSL, or AOL Connection.
3. Left click on Properties
4. Double-Click on the Internet
   Protocol (TCP/IP) item
5. Select the radio dial that says Obtain DNS Servers Automatically
6. Press OK twice to get out of the properties screen
7. Restart the computer

Go to Start->Run->Type CMD and click Ok. The MSDOS Window will be displayed. At the command prompt, type the following and press Enter after each line:

ipconfig /flushdns (The space between g and / is needed)
regsvr32 netshell.dll
regsvr32 netcfgx.dll
regsvr32 netman.dll
Exit

Restart the computer.

Please download and run this experimental tool:

Use it to attempt to solve connection problems. Best of luck, let me know what happens, please.

Go for it!

Okay. Will wait for that.

Still here.
