I'll try to get you started until Howard can tell you more specifically how to remove all of those infections.

Download, install and update Adaware http://www.lavasoft.de/software/adaware/

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

Run HJT and check the following:

O2 - BHO: Nothing - {5f4c3d09-b3b9-4f88-aa82-31332fee1c08} - C:\WINDOWS\system32\hp100.tmp (file missing)
O2 - BHO: SSVHelper Class - {761497BB-D6F0-462C-B6EB-D4DAF1D92D43} - C:\Program Files\Java\jre1.5.0_07\bin\ssv.dll
O9 - Extra button: Research - {92780B25-18CC-41C8-B9BE-3C9C571A8263} - C:\PROGRA~1\MICROS~2\OFFICE11\REFIEBAR.DLL

Howard would also say get rid of Norton crap and use Zone Alarm and AVG and use Firefox instead of IE.

Thanks Peddant still trying to get used to those HJT logs!!

 

[Peddant]

Howard will still find more.

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.

huh?? wats the difference between firefox and ie. i prefer ie!!

erm i forgot how to run disk defrag

 

[howard_hopkinso]

The difference is, Firefox is a lot more secure than IE. It doesn`t use ActiveX controls, which are a source of potential malware problems. It also doesn`t have as many security holes.

You should only use IE for Windows updates and the odd site that doesn`t work with Firefox.

Believe me your system will thank you for not using IE.

However, it really is upto you.

To run a defrag click start/programmes/Accessories/system tools/disk defrag.

[animemanga]

i d/l it and it's not so bad except the link bar area look a bit ugly than it is in IE. so do i have to delete ie?? exactly what will firefox do for my system??.

just a question..
what do u use?? IE or FIREFOX??

how come with firefox i can install google toolbar??




how do you make a short cut of a programme on the quick launch????
thanx so much!!:angel:

 

[howard_hopkinso]

No. You don`t need to delete IE.

If you don`t like the interface, you can download and install lots of different themes. click tools/themes/get more themes.

I have used Firefox for the last two years or so and have never had any issues.

I don`t know why you can install the Google toolbar with Firefox, but not in your IE.

I seem to remember you`ve had this problem for some time now.

Just forget IE, except for Windows updates etc.

i d/l it and it's not so bad except the link bar area look a bit ugly than it is in IE.

If you don`t like Firefox there is an alternative OPERA
It`s a bit quicker on it`s feet than Firefox,and a bit quicker to get to it`s feet.
Looks OK too IMHO.

 

[animemanga]

after all process here is the final hjk log
thanx to u all!!

Have HJT fix the following entries.

majoy problem after uninstalling and installin zonalarm and avg anti virus. my pc started to have glitchs. and utorrent wont even start up.nero keeps on freezing.

wats rong ??

 

[howard_hopkinso]

Just in case it`s zonealarm causing the problems.

Go HERE and download the free kerio firewall.

Disconnect from the net and uninstall Zonealarm.

Install the Kerio firewall and reconnect to the net. See if that helps.

Regards Howard

 

[animemanga]

i don't think it's zone alarm but avg
do u know any other free antivirus software

 

[Tedster]

using torrents and P2P software is an open invitation to viri.

 

[animemanga]

sorry howard i found out that it has nothing to do with both zone alarm and avg.

 

[howard_hopkinso]

sorry howard i found out that it has nothing to do with both zone alarm and avg.

What was/is the cause of the problem?

Regards Howard

 

[animemanga]

utorrent wasn't working because of some network settings, nero 7 was freezing becasue the software was made like that. i have seen lots of people having the same problem with nero. though i didn't find any cause of the glitchs and lately i having been having a message too often.it says "COULDN'T COPY TO MEMORY, CLICK OK TO CLOSE"
and did i tell you that the speed decreased.
