OS: WinXP Pro.
CPU/Ram: P4 2.6

Hiya. Whenever I try to access certain websites I get this a light-blue site with a link "ENTER" that goes to http://links.verotel.com/cgi-bin/showsite....804000000515758
Other people tried to access the same sites, and they can do it properly. Therefore I reached the conclusion that my browser has been hijacked.

OS: WinXP Pro. (updated) Browser: Internet Explorer 6.
Anti spyware software installed:

- Ad-aware 6.0 professional edition. - Found nothing.
- Spybot (updated). - Found and fixed a few registry keys. (somaticab was one of them).
- Spywareblaster (updated).

I also scanned my computer with Norton AV 2004 Pro, PC-Cillin's online scanner and The Cleaner. Nothing was detected.

Hijack this log:

By the way, I downloaded and scanned my computer with CWShredder, nothing was detected. Also.. I tried accessing these webpages via HTTP proxy, and the webpage loads properly.

This is the source code of the fake webpage:

Put HJT in its own folder and with it only running, fix this one. See if that fixes it. You should also uninstall SpyKiller, it's junk and shouldn't be on your system.

If you recognize these leave them, if not have them fix. I don't see anything else, let me know.
This one is new!!

This one was there before, just check to see if it's OK, you know your system better then I do.

Yeah, I set that HTTP proxy, since i can view these certain webpages properly if i'm behind a proxy. the only thing spybot detected this afternoon was SomaticCab.setup and it was deteleted along with a few registry keys.

I don't think you have run this program yet, download and run it from your desktop and see if it finds anything.

Clean up the system also (this is for 98 and ME but should be close for XP)
Open up IE, from the drop down menu choose Tools, Internet Options, Delete Temporary Internet Files and cookies. (cookies optional)
Go to Start, Run, type temp , delete all the files in that folder
Do the same for recent
Delete all the .tmp and .chk files you can find. To do so, click Start/Find and in the search box (field) type *.tmp and this will search for all your temporary files. Repeat for chk files by typing *.chk in the search field, make sure you are looking in 'C'. Empty recycle bin.
