Hi everyone, I recently got a spyware that I cant get rid of. Usually, when I get a spyware I erase it very quickly, but this one always keep coming back again and again as soon as I open a new browser. First I star Adaware, then Spybot, then CoolWebShredder and I have SpywareBlaster (all with their most current updates) I have also HijackThis, if you need it I will post it. Can you please help me get rid of this one. Thanks in advance

do you know what specific spyware is bugging you? posting hijackthis would help a ton in figuring out what the problem is. what i do sometimes when a particularly nasty piece of spyware is bugging me is to search online for other removal methods (such as editing the registry, uninstalling software w/ spyware embedded, etc.)

Try this free firewall called ZoneAlarm to keep the stuff out. ZONEALARM dont forget it :)

I also have zonealarm, here is the hijack this: Logfile of HijackThis v1.97.5 Scan saved at 6:02:40 PM, on 7/16/2004 Platform: Windows 2000 SP4 (WinNT 5.00.2195) MSIE: Internet Explorer v6.00 SP1 (6.00.2800.1106) Running processes: C:\WINNT\System32\smss.exe C:\WINNT\system32\winlogon.exe C:\WINNT\system32\services.exe C:\WINNT\system32\lsass.exe C:\WINNT\system32\svchost.exe C:\WINNT\System32\lexbces.exe C:\WINNT\system32\spoolsv.exe C:\WINNT\System32\svchost.exe C:\WINNT\system32\nvsvc32.exe C:\WINNT\PMJ151LA.BIN C:\WINNT\system32\regsvc.exe C:\WINNT\system32\MSTask.exe C:\PROGRA~1\Serv-U\SERVUD~1.exe C:\WINNT\system32\ZoneLabs\vsmon.exe C:\WINNT\System32\WBEM\WinMgmt.exe C:\WINNT\system32\svchost.exe C:\WINNT\System32\svchost.exe C:\WINNT\Explorer.exe C:\WINNT\system32\spool\DRIVERS\W32X86\3\printray.exe C:\Program Files\Common Files\Real\Update_OB\realsched.exe C:\PROGRA~1\LEXMAR~1\ACMonitor_X73.exe C:\PROGRA~1\LEXMAR~1\AcBtnMgr_X73.exe C:\Program Files\Ahead\InCD\InCD.exe C:\WINNT\system32\internat.exe C:\Program Files\Zone Labs\ZoneAlarm\zonealarm.exe C:\Program Files\Internet Explorer\iexplore.exe E:\OTHER FOLDERS\Spywares-Virus\HijackThis.exe R1 - HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main,Search Bar = file://C:\DOCUME~1\cruz1\LOCALS~1\Temp\sp.html R1 - HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main,Search Page = file://C:\DOCUME~1\cruz1\LOCALS~1\Temp\sp.html R1 - HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Search,SearchAssistant = file://C:\DOCUME~1\cruz1\LOCALS~1\Temp\sp.html R1 - HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main,Search Bar = file://C:\DOCUME~1\cruz1\LOCALS~1\Temp\sp.html R1 - HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main,Search Page = file://C:\DOCUME~1\cruz1\LOCALS~1\Temp\sp.html R0 - HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Search,SearchAssistant = file://C:\DOCUME~1\cruz1\LOCALS~1\Temp\sp.html R1 - HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main,HomeOldSP = about:blank O2 - BHO: (no name) - {ADCFDE5F-034F-48B1-8CFA-FAA1ED868BB1} - C:\WINNT\system32\cen.dll O3 - Toolbar: &Radio - {8E718888-423F-11D2-876E-00A0C9082467} - C:\WINNT\system32\msdxm.ocx O3 - Toolbar: MSN Toolbar - {BDAD1DAD-C946-4A17-ADC1-64B5B4FF55D0} - C:\Program Files\MSN Toolbar\01.01.1629.0\en-us\msntb.dll O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [Synchronization Manager] mobsync.exe /logon O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [NvCplDaemon] RUNDLL32.exe C:\WINNT\system32\NvCpl.dll,NvStartup O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [PrinTray] C:\WINNT\system32\spool\DRIVERS\W32X86\3\printray.exe O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [nwiz] nwiz.exe /install O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [TkBellExe] "C:\Program Files\Common Files\Real\Update_OB\realsched.exe" -osboot O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [Lexmark X73 Button Monitor] C:\PROGRA~1\LEXMAR~1\ACMonitor_X73.exe O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [Lexmark X73 Button Manager] C:\PROGRA~1\LEXMAR~1\AcBtnMgr_X73.exe O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [QuickTime Task] "C:\Program Files\QuickTime\qttask.exe" -atboottime O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [CD Player 95] C:\PROGRA~1\SUPERC~1\CDPLAY95.exe /silent O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [NeroCheck] C:\WINNT\system32\\NeroCheck.exe O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [InCD] C:\Program Files\Ahead\InCD\InCD.exe O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [SpyBlocs] C:\PROGRA~1\SpyBlocs\SpyBlocs.exe O4 - HKCU\..\Run: [internat.exe] internat.exe O4 - HKCU\..\Run: [promo1] C:\Archivos de programa\promo1\promo1.exe /nostart O4 - HKCU\..\Run: [Spyware Doctor] "C:\Program Files\Spyware Doctor\spydoctor.exe" /Q O4 - Global Startup: Adobe Gamma Loader.lnk = C:\Program Files\Common Files\Adobe\Calibration\Adobe Gamma Loader.exe O4 - Global Startup: Microsoft Office.lnk = C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office\Office10\OSA.exe O4 - Global Startup: ZoneAlarm.lnk = C:\Program Files\Zone Labs\ZoneAlarm\zonealarm.exe O8 - Extra context menu item: E&xport to Microsoft Excel - res://C:\PROGRA~1\MICROS~2\Office10\EXCEL.EXE/3000 O16 - DPF: {0000000A-0000-0010-8000-00AA00389B71} - http://download.microsoft.com/download/d/4/4/d446e8a9-3a86-4b59-bb19-f5bd11b40367/wmavax.CAB O16 - DPF: {01FE8D0A-51AD-459B-B62B-85E135128B32} (DD_v4.DDv4) - http://www.drivershq.com/DD_v4.CAB O16 - DPF: {03F998B2-0E00-11D3-A498-00104B6EB52E} (MetaStreamCtl Class) - https://components.viewpoint.com/MTSInstallers/MetaStream3.cab?url=http://www.viewpoint.com/cgi-bin/vet_install_popup.pl?
