Please download and install the latest version of HijackThis v2.0.2:

Download the HijackThis Installer from this link: HijackThis

1. Save " HJTInstall.exe" to your desktop.
2. Double click on HJTInstall.exe to run the program.
3. By default it will install to C:\Program Files\Trend Micro\HijackThis.
4. Accept the license agreement by clicking the "I Accept" button.
5.Click on the "Do a system scan and save a log file" button. It will scan and then ask you to save the log.
6. Click "Save log" to save the log file and then the log will open in Notepad.
7. Click on "Edit > Select All" then click on "Edit > Copy" to copy the entire contents of the log.
8. Paste the log in your next reply.
9. Do NOT have HijackThis fix anything yet! Most of what it finds will be harmless or even required.

Double-click the FindAWF icon once again

If a Security Alert shows, allow the program to run.
As instructed, press any key to continue.
Use the following option: Press 2 then Enter to restore files from bak folders

A text file opens called: files.txt
Click below the line and paste the following list of files to be restored:


"C:\Program Files\iTunes\bak\iTunesHelper.exe"
"C:\Program Files\QuickTime\bak\QTTask.exe"
"C:\WINDOWS\ehome\bak\ehtray.exe"
"C:\WINDOWS\SMINST\bak\RECGUARD.EXE"
"C:\Program Files\Hewlett-Packard\HP Boot Optimizer\bak\HPBootOp.exe"
"C:\Program Files\HP\HP Software Update\bak\HPWuSchd2.exe"
"C:\Program Files\ScanSoft\OmniPageSE4.0\bak\OpwareSE4.exe"
"C:\Program Files\Yahoo!\Search Protection\bak\SearchProtection.exe"
"C:\Program Files\Common Files\ScanSoft Shared\SSBkgdUpdate\bak\SSBkgdupdate.exe"
"C:\Program Files\Java\jre1.6.0_02\bin\bak\jusched.exe"
"C:\WINDOWS\system32\spool\drivers\w32x86\3\bak\WrtMon.exe"


Next, close and click Yes to save the changes.

Once files.txt is saved, FindAWF does the following:
-It attempts to terminate the process represented by each filename on the list, if running
-Deletes the rogue file from the parent folder, if present
-Copies the original file to the parent folder

When done with the above, it automatically runs a new scan and opens a new log.
Please provide the new FindAWF log in your reply.

We still have work to do after this phase of the virus removal.

Option 3:
Double-click the FindAWF icon once again

If a Security Alert shows, allow the program to run.
As instructed, press any key to continue.
Use the following option: Press 3 then Enter to remove bak folders

A text file opens called: folders.txt
Click below the line and paste the following list of folders to be removed:


"C:\Program Files\iTunes\bak\iTunesHelper.exe"
"C:\Program Files\QuickTime\bak\QTTask.exe"
"C:\WINDOWS\ehome\bak\ehtray.exe"
"C:\WINDOWS\SMINST\bak\RECGUARD.EXE"
"C:\Program Files\Hewlett-Packard\HP Boot Optimizer\bak\HPBootOp.exe"
"C:\Program Files\HP\HP Software Update\bak\HPWuSchd2.exe"
"C:\Program Files\ScanSoft\OmniPageSE4.0\bak\OpwareSE4.exe"
"C:\Program Files\Yahoo!\Search Protection\bak\SearchProtection.exe"
"C:\Program Files\Common Files\ScanSoft Shared\SSBkgdUpdate\bak\SSBkgdupdate.exe"
"C:\Program Files\Java\jre1.6.0_02\bin\bak\jusched.exe"
"C:\WINDOWS\system32\spool\drivers\w32x86\3\bak\WrtMon.exe"

Next, close and click Yes to save the changes.

Once folders.txt is saved, FindAWF does the following:
-It deletes the contents of the bak folders
-Removes the bak folders

When done with the above, it automatically runs a new scan and opens a new log.
Please provide the new FindAWF log in your reply.


Next Option 4.


Option 4:

This removes all entries from the domain zones.
When the program returns to the main menu, use the following option:
Press E then Enter to EXIT

Next,

Then, disconnect from the Internet!
Next,
Back on the Desktop, double-click on the fixme.reg file you just saved and click on Yes when asked to merge the information.
Optional if the following programs are in your computer.
Note that since the Domains are deleted SpywareBlaster protection must be re-enabled. Spybot's Immunize feature must be used again, also you have to re-install IE-SpyAd if installed.
Delete the fixme.reg file just created.

Looks good.

Update your java. Go to start> control panel> java> update> update now> uncheck/decline any google toolbar options.

One update go to control panel> add/remove programs and unistall all the other java versions on the computer except for the jre1.6.0_03 version you just installed. Those older version are one way you could have been infected.

Please download ATF-Cleaner to your desktop from this link
http://www.atribune.org/content/view/19/2/ We will need it later in safe mode

Run Hijack This, close all windows except Hijack This, place a check to the left of the following items and press "fix checked":

O2 - BHO: (no name) - {02478D38-C3F9-4efb-9B51-7695ECA05670} - (no file)

Empty the restore folder. Go to start>control panel>system>system restore tab>check the box beside "turn off system restore>apply (takes a minute)>ok. Go back and uncheck the box to turn system restore back on>apply>ok.

Next, please reboot your computer in Safe Mode by doing the following :

Restart your computer

After hearing your computer beep once during startup, but before the Windows icon appears, tap the F8 key continually;

Instead of Windows loading as normal, a menu with options should appear;

Select the first option, to run Windows in Safe Mode, then press "Enter".

Choose your usual account.

Run ATF-Cleaner from safe mode.Double-click ATF-Cleaner.exe to run the program.
Under Main choose: Select All
Click the Empty Selected button.

Please download ComboFix to the desktop from this link:

http://download.bleepingcomputer.com/sUBs/ComboFix.exe

Double-click combofix.exe
Follow the prompts.
(Don't click on the window while the program is running, it may cause your system to hang.)

Please post the log it produces.

You should add "Spywareblaster" to your arsenol of antispyware tools, just do a google search for spywareblaster, download it,install it, and update it. Its free and runs in the background, so you don't actually run it, and re-writes malicious script before it can install on your computer. Look for updates weekly as there is no auto-update on the free version.

It has not left yet.

Double-click the FindAWF icon once again

If a Security Alert shows, allow the program to run.
As instructed, press any key to continue.
Use the following option: Press 2 then Enter to restore files from bak folders

A text file opens called: files.txt
Click below the line and paste the following list of files to be restored:


"C:\Program Files\iTunes\bak\iTunesHelper.exe"
"C:\Program Files\QuickTime\bak\QTTask.exe"
"C:\WINDOWS\ehome\bak\ehtray.exe"
"C:\WINDOWS\SMINST\bak\RECGUARD.EXE"
"C:\Program Files\Hewlett-Packard\HP Boot Optimizer\bak\HPBootOp.exe"
"C:\Program Files\HP\HP Software Update\bak\HPWuSchd2.exe"
"C:\Program Files\ScanSoft\OmniPageSE4.0\bak\OpwareSE4.exe"
"C:\Program Files\Yahoo!\Search Protection\bak\SearchProtection.exe"
"C:\Program Files\Common Files\ScanSoft Shared\SSBkgdUpdate\bak\SSBkgdupdate.exe"
"C:\Program Files\Java\jre1.6.0_02\bin\bak\jusched.exe"
"C:\WINDOWS\system32\spool\drivers\w32x86\3\bak\WrtMon.exe"

Next, close and click Yes to save the changes.

Once files.txt is saved, FindAWF does the following:
-It attempts to terminate the process represented by each filename on the list, if running
-Deletes the rogue file from the parent folder, if present
-Copies the original file to the parent folder

When done with the above, it automatically runs a new scan and opens a new log.
Please provide the new FindAWF log in your reply.

Double-click the FindAWF icon once again

If a Security Alert shows, allow the program to run.
As instructed, press any key to continue.
Use the following option: Press 2 then Enter to restore files from bak folders

A text file opens called: files.txt
Click below the line and paste the following list of files to be restored:


"C:\Program Files\iTunes\bak\iTunesHelper.exe"
"C:\Program Files\QuickTime\bak\QTTask.exe"
"C:\WINDOWS\ehome\bak\ehtray.exe"
"C:\WINDOWS\SMINST\bak\RECGUARD.EXE"
"C:\Program Files\Hewlett-Packard\HP Boot Optimizer\bak\HPBootOp.exe"
"C:\Program Files\HP\HP Software Update\bak\HPWuSchd2.exe"
"C:\Program Files\ScanSoft\OmniPageSE4.0\bak\OpwareSE4.exe"
"C:\Program Files\Yahoo!\Search Protection\bak\SearchProtection.exe"
"C:\Program Files\Common Files\ScanSoft Shared\SSBkgdUpdate\bak\SSBkgdupdate.exe"
"C:\Program Files\Java\jre1.6.0_02\bin\bak\jusched.exe"
"C:\WINDOWS\system32\spool\drivers\w32x86\3\bak\WrtMon.exe"

Next, close and click Yes to save the changes.

Once files.txt is saved, FindAWF does the following:
-It attempts to terminate the process represented by each filename on the list, if running
-Deletes the rogue file from the parent folder, if present
-Copies the original file to the parent folder

When done with the above, it automatically runs a new scan and opens a new log.
Please provide the new FindAWF log in your reply.

Much Better. How is the computer operating.

You should add "Spywareblaster" to your arsenol of antispyware tools, just do a google search for spywareblaster, download it,install it, and update it. Its free and runs in the background, so you don't actually run it, and re-writes malicious script before it can install on your computer. Look for updates weekly as there is no auto-update on the free version.
