Resolved Only one problem, I cannot load blogs on MySpace

[Fea]

I have an account on Myspace and a few weeks ago, the ability to comment on blogs just stopped working, its like as if the page just won’t finish loading up.

I have no other problems other than my system is running slower that I’d like.

These are some of the things I’ve tried (from what I can remember, there are others but to be honest, I hadn’t a clue what I was doing at the time other than grasping at straws).

Tried IE and Firefox
Uninstalled and reinstalled Firefox
System Restore
AVG Scan
SuperAntiVirus Scan
Deleted all older versions of Java, installed latest version
Checked for all new updates on IE
Contacted Myspace
Contacted my service provider

All yielded nothing.



I found the link for the 7 (5) step process and these are the results I got back.
If anyone can help, I would be forever in debt to you, thanks so much.

Welcome to the Virus and Malware forum. I see that you found us okay.

I will be glad to review logs for malware. However, if the only problem you're having is not accessing the blog, it is doubtful that it is caused by malware.

Please stay away from the FunWebProducts and MyWebSearch and any related sites. You may be getting all that "fun" stuff free, but each new cursor, wallpaper, screen saver, Smiley, etc. comes with a price. It will be adware at least, with strong possibility of spyware or 'pests'.

Esetscan

Thank you so much for getting back to me on this. I genuinely am grateful.

This is all I got back from the ESETScan

C:\Documents and Settings\Áine\Local Settings\Temporary Internet Files\Content.IE5\4JC5QBJM\cool-optical-illusions-for-kids[1].htm JS/Redirector.NIF trojan



I'll keep going with your next instruction in the morning (its pretty late here now) ESETScan took over 2 hours to run.

Combofix

Ok I've tried to run the first link you put up for this. It told me I had over 1,000 registry errors but it wouldn't give me a report until I registered with their site.

So I tried the second link but a box came up and told me that I needed to uninstall AVG before it would run. I had it disabled. Is this right? I won't do anything else until I hear back from you again.

(Thanks for your patience in this, I'm just about ready to just give up.)

I gave you the directions to use the App Remover to uninstall AVG to run Combofix. You cannot 'disable' AVG- you have to temporarily uninstall it.

Please specify which links you are referring to for 'first link'?

The first link for Combofix is embedded in the first HERE and should give you the download directly. I just tried it. See if you notice any difference pasting the full link in the Address Bar:
http://download.bleepingcomputer.co...c24c19ae04b18f101ed0b1c/4ddbbd51/ComboFix.exe

And I tried it again from within this post and got the download.

Update

I have no idea whats happened, but I logged in this morning to check to see if I could post to the blog and it was still the same. I came home just now, and its working perfectly.

Whatever or however it happened, I am forever grateful to you, thank you so much.
I offer you a virtual hug and a massive bottle of champagne. Your a life saver.

As soon as I have time, I'll start a new thread for my laptop. It hasn't worked in about a year now but thats not todays worry.

thanks again

Fea.

It was most likely a glitch on the site itself. The is a file in the Java cache that needs to be removed:
To clear the Java Plug-in cache:

  [1]. Click Start > Control Panel.
  [2]. Double-click the Java icon in the control panel. The Java Control Panel appears.
  
  
  
  [3].Click Settings under Temporary Internet Files.The Temporary Files Settings dialog box appears.
  [4] Click Delete Files.The Delete Temporary Files dialog box appears.
  
  
  
  There are three options on this window to clear the cache.Check all.
• . Delete Files
• .View Applications
• .View Applets
  [5]. Click OK on Delete Temporary Files window.
  Note: This deletes all the Downloaded Applications and Applets from the cache.
  [6]. Click Apply> OK on Temporary Files Settings window.

Note: If you want to delete a specific application and applet from the cache, click on View Application and View Applet options respectively.
====================================
Then you can remove all of the tools we used and the files and folders they created
I'm not sure if you got Combofix on the system. If you did not, skip that uninstall.

• 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.
  
  

• 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.

Note: If any tool, file or folder (belonging to the program we have used) hasn't been deleted, please delete it manually.

• 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
