Inactive Internet Explorer popups while using Firefox?

[ZachTromp]

I don't ever use internet explorer..... Only firefox.. or google chrome if i have to, and these popups are stopping me from being able to use my computer, and none of my antivirus/ malware programs are picking it up.. Help would be greatly appreciated.

Please, follow all steps listed here: https://www.techspot.com/community/...lware-removal-preliminary-instructions.58138/

 

[ZachTromp]

None of those worked, and i did them in order...

 

[Broni]

I'm confused.
What exactly didn't work?

 

[ZachTromp]

Sorry i couldnt get the GMER program to run correctly, i figured it out, im working my way through now...

 

[Broni]

OK .........

 

[ZachTromp]

Alright I think im done, lets see what you think.

 

[Broni]

Yeah, we have a rootkit here...

Please download ComboFix from Here or Here to your Desktop.

**Note: In the event you already have Combofix, this is a new version that I need you to download. It is important that it is saved directly to your desktop**

1. Please, never rename Combofix unless instructed.
2. Close any open browsers.
3. Close/disable all anti virus and anti malware programs so they do not interfere with the running of ComboFix.
   • Very Important! Temporarily disable your anti-virus, script blocking and any anti-malware real-time protection before performing a scan. They can interfere with ComboFix or remove some of its embedded files which may cause "unpredictable results".
   • Click on this link to see a list of programs that should be disabled. The list is not all inclusive. If yours is not listed and you don't know how to disable it, please ask.
   NOTE. If Combofix asks you to install Recovery Console, please allow it.
   • Close any open browsers.
   • WARNING: Combofix will disconnect your machine from the Internet as soon as it starts
   • Please do not attempt to re-connect your machine back to the Internet until Combofix has completely finished.
   • If there is no internet connection after running Combofix, then restart your computer to restore back your connection.
4. Double click on combofix.exe & follow the prompts.
5. When finished, it will produce a report for you.
6. Please post the "C:\ComboFix.txt" .

**Note: Do not mouseclick combofix's window while it's running. That may cause it to stall**

Make sure, you re-enable your security programs, when you're done with Combofix.

DO NOT make any other changes to your computer (like installing programs, using other cleaning tools, etc.), until it's officially declared clean!!!

Alrighhhhty,

1. Please open Notepad

• Click Start , then Run
• Type notepad .exe in the Run Box.

2. Now copy/paste the entire content of the codebox below into the Notepad window:

File::
c:\windows\system32\hphtxjildxs.exe
c:\windows\system32\tmp.tmp
c:\documents and settings\All Users\Application Data\Og1507.dat
c:\windows\system32\yzud.dll
c:\windows\system32\youm_3.dll


RenV::
c:\program files\Adobe\Reader 9.0\Reader\Reader_sl .exe
c:\program files\AIM\aim  .exe
c:\program files\Common Files\Java\Java Update\jusched .exe
c:\program files\DivX\DivX Update\DivXUpdate .exe
c:\program files\Spyware Doctor\pctsTray .exe


Folder::

Driver::

Registry::
[-HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\software\microsoft\windows nt\currentversion\winlogon\notify\youm_3]
[-HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\software\microsoft\active setup\installed components\{7CAFE3C5-84BF-48E5-B26F-69A69A56C4B9}]

RegLockDel::

3. Save the above as CFScript.txt

4. Then drag the CFScript.txt into ComboFix.exe as depicted in the animation below. This will start ComboFix again.

5. After reboot, (in case it asks to reboot), please post the following reports/logs into your next reply:

• Combofix.txt
• A new HijackThis log.

Download HijackThis:
http://free.antivirus.com/hijackthis/
by clicking on Installer under Version 2.0.4
Install, and run it.
Post HijackTHis log.
Do NOT attempt to fix anything!

NOTE. If you're using Vista, or 7, right click on HijackThis, and click Run as Administrator
