Comment:

ok so i downloaded a plugin to watch some soccer videos and ended up getting a spyware,

anyways this spyware wanted me to download program called virusheat (which i obviously did not)

i tried searching for the spywares using kaspersky and it only deleted two processes but it can not find the other two.

the other two are sbmnt.exe and sbsm.exe i know them because i kind of memorized my task manager because i use it a lot.

so all i want is a little help getting rid of them. thank you
and my computer suddenly closes down like 20 mins after i open it .
PS: tried using vundofix and hijackthis , didnt work.

Hi, Welcom to Computing.net help forum.

Your computer is infected with Rongue Antispyware VirusHeat and some other viruses (like C:\Program Files\NetProject and C:\Program Files\NetProject\sbsm.exe).
Lest try to get rid of them.
lets start.
Dont scan your computer with any Antivirus or Antispyware. Disable all such applications.

I need your Hijackthis Log.

Download the "HijackThis" Installer from this link:
http://www.trendsecure.com/portal/e...


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.

Post your Hijackthis Log in next reply!

thanks for the fast reply here is the hijackthis file. ( ok here is the problem, kaspersky deleted two files as i said above then the other two processes were stil there, anyways i restarted in safe mode then found the folder Netproject and deleted the files and the regeistry files in regedit. i still have the annoying popups and a folder named C:program files/ Helper which seems to have nothing in it but im not able to delete it, so thats the whole story i hope you will be able to help me because i cant play any game because the popups keep minimizing my screen.)
