Have HijackThis fix these entries.

O4 - Global Startup: Digital Line Detect.lnk = ?
O6 - HKCU\Software\Policies\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Control Panel present

Close all windows before clicking Fix checked.

----------

We are going to have to do some more virus scans.


Run the BitDefender Online Scanner
Click I Agree to the license and then select Click here to scan
DO NOT CHANGE THE OPTIONS TO SHOW ALL FILES SCANNED.
That will make your logs huge and we don't need to see clean files.

Once Bitdefender completes the scan:
Click-on the Detected Problems tab.
Then select Click here to export the scan report

When the window comes up to save the report, change the Save as type: box to:
Text (Tab Delimited) (*.txt) and then in the File name box enter change to bdscan then click Save

This will save a file named bdscan.txt. I would suggest saving it to the Desktop so you can easily find it.
(take notice of where you save it so you can find it later)

This bdcan.txt file will actually contain HTML code that we can easily view later while reviewing your log. All we have to do is rename the file to bdscan.html.

If you do not follow these step, you will have an incorrect log or worse a log summary which is useless to us

Post the bdscan.txt file as an Attachment.

SpySweeper log
 
Bitdefender crashed windows. I am running SpySweeper right now but the trial version does not quarantine threats, so may not be as much help as you had thought.

I did run a ZA AV scan and found seven more trojans that were quarantined.
 
Are you still getting the error message?

Do you have the Windows install CD?

Enable Viewing Of Hidden System Files & Folders

1. Click Start.
2. Select Control Panel.
3. Select the Tools menu and click Folder Options.
4. Select the View Tab.
5. Under the Hidden files and folders heading select Show hidden files and folders.
6. Uncheck the Hide extensions for known file types option.
7. Uncheck the Hide protected operating system files (recommended) option.
8. Click Apply.
9. Click OK.

Then go to http://www.virustotal.com/ and click "Browse" to locate the

C:\windows\system32\yprlnwb.dll

Click "Send File" and it will run it through multiple virus scanners and show the results. (takes a few minutes) Let us know if it the results show any malware.
 
Ok I will do that.

Good news, I realized that having ZA AV running was probably causing scanners problems. Turned it off and Spy Sweeper looks like it is going the distance this time. I will post log if ?I can and also try Bitdefender again. Bet Deckard will also run now. Want to try Deckard again?
 
Spysweeper found one trojan: trojan-pws-onlinegames.gen

It won't quarantine it or generate a report without a subscription.

Also found three cookies. Not bad.

I'll try Bitdefender and Deckard.
 
I will have to stop using SpySweeper. It used to remove what it found.

Go with the BitDefender and post that log. We may try Combofix again with the ZA turned off.
 
Not sure what the Viruslink report means. Maybe this link will work:

resultado.html?72d6d950066fb43c805419e7a713aac2

looks like Microsoft thinks it's adware and Prevx thinks it's malware. If that's what that page is saying.

in edit: did a new scan. Here's an additional link:

Prevx info: http://info.prevx.com/aboutprogramtext.asp?PX5=60C925995104D08300B9004C04AF5A00458C98AC

here's a link on totour.exe: http://forums.pcpitstop.com/index.php?showtopic=137078


Did a free Prevx scan and it found a bad file: C:\WINDOWS\system32\swreg.exe but it wouldn't fix it for free. It didn't find totour though or yprlnwb either
 
We are making some progress now.

Try the Combofix again, hopefully it will go to the end this time.

Post a new HijackThis log with it.
 
Combofix again gets to Deleting files/folders and there is one file there:

C:\windows\systems32\drivers\yprlnwb.sys

I let it sit there like this for an hour earlier. Should I wait longer?
 
No, I want to do some cleanup and start new on the scans. There is too much junk on the computer. This tool will remove all of the special tools and their related files/folders we have been using.

After it is complete try combofix, if it hangs, forget it for now.

Then try to boot to safe mode and try SDFix, which will hopefully run.

Remember to turn off ZA, each time you restart the computer it turns back on.

1. Double click OTMoveIt.exe to launch it.

Please then reboot your computer in Safe Mode by doing the following:

(Report.txt will also be copied to Clipboard).
* Finally add the contents of the Report.txt in your next post as an Attachment


I will be looking through the Deckard log. Let me know............
 
OK, found something more in the log. The virus has disabled Safe Mode.

Download and run AVZ from this link Repair SafeBoot

  • Unzip it to a folder on your desktop
  • Double click on AVZ.exe (Must be unzipped or the options will not appear)
  • Click on the file tab and then click on System recovery
  • Put a checkmark next to Restore SafeBoot registry keys
  • Click on Execute selected operations
  • Restart the computer and see if you can enter safe mode by the F8 method and run SDFix.
 
OK, try combofix.


Please download Combofix by sUBs from either here or here

Save Combofix.exe to your your Desktop.

  • Double click combofix.exe & follow the prompts. (from the keyboard select 1 and press enter)
  • When finished, it will produce a log for you.
  • Attach that log in your next reply.

Do not mouseclick combofix's window while it's running. That may cause your computer to stall
 
Combofix did the same thing again. I don't think it was removed by that utility you gave me OTMOVEIT. I don't think that did anything.
 
Go to Start > Run and copy and paste next command in the field:

ComboFix /u

combofixu3.jpg


Make sure there's a space between Combofix and /
Then hit Enter.

This will uninstall Combofix, delete its related folders and files, reset your clock settings, hide file extensions, hide the system/hidden files and resets System Restore again

Then try combofix once again.

Are you are turning off ZA before the scan?

If it will not run then post a fresh deckards scan.
