Hot teens incon on desktop

Comment:

I poste this message last night and got an answer -- I checked from another machine. But now that I am ready to implement the fix, I can't find the message or reply.
My problem is that an icon called "hot teens" keeps showing up on my desktop. I've used spybot and adaware and it keeps coming back. The first reply identified it as something do to with "isearch" which also mysteriously appeared, but I thought was gone. But it's in my HT file. I am reposting my HT file. I would really appreciate it if someone could post the solution one more time...
Thanks..
Fanore

Here's my HT file:

Hi again.....try this link:

http://toolbar.isearch.com/uninstall/

It's an automatic uninstall.

Reboot if prompted.

Check in Hijackthis after the uninstall of isearch that these entries are gone:

O2 - BHO: TX4 - {00000000-08C8-8E68-587B-61F804EE6164} - C:\WINDOWS\System32\avisynth32.dll

O16 - DPF: {1C78AB3F-A857-482E-80C0-3A1E5238A565} - ms-its:mhtml:file://C:\ss.MHT!http://toolbar.isearch.com/install/00003/chm.chm::/files/initial.cab

O16 - DPF: {69432678-2906-2705-1128-068943397621} -

If not...check all 3 items, close all windows except hijack and click "fix checked"

Empty out temporary internet files including offline content:

Start> settings> control panel> internet options.
Click delete files
Check delete offline content
Click ok
Click clear history
Yes at the prompt

Start task manager (ctrl+alt+del)
Processes
End process on k.exe

Show hidden files and folders:

Start> settings> control panel> folder options> view.
Check "show hidden files and folders"
Uncheck "hide file extensions for known file types"
Click apply
Click ok

Go to:

C:\documents and settings\your name\local settings\temp\k.exe <--delete this

Reboot

Post new Hijack log when done

I ininstalled isearch, but the lines were still in my HT file. So I deleted them. Then I checked for the k.exe file. It was not running and it was not in the folder where you indicated I'd find it.....so perhaps it's not there??

Anyway, here is my new HT file. I hope this fixed it. Thanks for your continued help with this....

I finally found out what the heck is going on...cool web search hijack!...if I could make a red faced smiley I would...those url's are new cws domains.

Download CWShredder from here:

http://www.spywareinfo.com/~merijn/downloads.html

If that link does not work try this one: (direct download)

CWShredder.exe

Go offline and double click cwshredder.exe to start.
Close all windows except shredder and click fix not just scan.
Allow it to fix what it finds.

Reboot and check again to be sure the tool got it all.

Again clear out temp internet files as above.
Then click the Programs tab in Internet properties window
Click "reset web settings"
Yes at the popup

I believe that should do it.

Start hijackthis again and check the following to fix: (if still present)

R0 - HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main,Start Page = http://www.localtoolbox.com/lakesregion

R1 - HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main,Default_Page_URL = http://www.localtoolbox.com/lakesregion

R0 - HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main,Start Page = http://www.localtoolbox.com/lakesregion

R1 - HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main,Default_Page_URL = http://www.localtoolbox.com/lakesregion

R1 - HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\SearchURL,(Default) = about:blank

R1 - HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Internet Connection Wizard,Shellnext = http://education.dellnet.com/

Post a new log just to make sure all is clean.
Off to work...will check back in the morning.

Hi Blender --
I ran cwshedder twice and it didn't seem to find anything. Re-cleaned IE and reran HT. Four of the lines you indicated should be deleted were still present. I deleted them.

Now my home page is MSN. I had set my home page to www.localtoolbox.com/lakesregion....but all those lines were deleted from my HT file. Is it safe to reset my home page to that address?? It's the address provided by my ISP.....
Okay, here's my new HT file. I hope you got it. Thanks again for all your help....and if I'm fixed, can you let me know?

I have the identical problem. I've tried to dig it out several times. So far I have found the following
New Folder in Program Files, WebSiteViewer
New Dial up connection called TIBS41
HKLM/Software/Microsoft/windows/Current Version/Run dumprep 0 -k
123070.exe in Temp folder
k.exe in Temp folder
123070.dlr prefetch file
123070.exe prefetch file
k.exe prefetch file
Websiteviewer in Registry in a couple places
One time when I was shutting down spontaniously, a program wouldn't shut down called "O". It wasn't running in my process list and I've never seen it running before. It's a trojan porn dialer that reloads it self daily when you start internet explorer. I can't bust this one with hijack this, spybot, adaware, trendmicro, or norton. It's deep and it's tricky and its new. Any help with this would be greatly appreciated.

Your log looks fine.

I am currently having a few problems with a couple utilities of mine designed to analyse this stuff...investigating...

Is everything working ok now?
Is that hot teens icon gone?

You can restore those entries (your home page from ISP) from within Hijackthis:

Start hijackthis
Click config
Click backups
Have only hijackthis window open.
For each of the following entries hilight and click the "restore" button:

R0 - HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main,Start Page = http://www.localtoolbox.com/lakesregion

R1 - HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main,Default_Page_URL = http://www.localtoolbox.com/lakesregion

R0 - HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main,Start Page = http://www.localtoolbox.com/lakesregion

R1 - HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main,Default_Page_URL = http://www.localtoolbox.com/lakesregion

Reboot

That will reset your home page settings.

Sorry for any confusion.

Take care and all the best.

Yes, everything is working fine....and the hot teens icon is gone.....Because it seems to wait a few days between popping up, I'll hold my breath a bit longer. But I think you got it!! Thanks for all your help......

Can I ask you one last question? Is there anything -- other than being very careful about the sites that I visit -- to protect myself from this sort of thing. I think in our first message (the one that got lost), you mentioned some program I should get?

Anyway, I believe you solved my problem and I am very grateful to you....
Fanore.

I'm glad I finally found something on this thing - I've had it for a week.

Fanore - just for kicks (and to see if it's gone for good) - bump up your system clock by a day or two. Then boot & open Internet Explorer. As we've all discovered, after deletion the thing waits for a while to reappear.

In my case, confusing it with the system clock at least lets me know that my attempts to kill it have failed without having to wait and see.

I guess it's not so easy to get rid of this thing. It seems I have some of the same issues that others have raised in this line of messages. I just found a folder called website viewer with more of the icons in it and a few other files. I deleted it, but as others seem to be finding, it still comes back.......anything else you can suggest would be greatly appreciated...

I'm pretty sure it's gone!! O.K I didn't read carefully enough earlier, but once I got rid of the avisynth32.dll (along with everything else) the porn chick quit showing up.

Do you also along with seems like most of the others in this thread have "Website viewer"?
Check in add/rem programs (in control panel) to see if its there...and try uninstalling it.

Since your origional post dissapeared and I don't remember exactly what all I said..(I do remember answering it tho)
Have you used the "tweaked" settings on ad-aware?
After getting the latest updates...
Here is the url to set it up for best results:

http://www.lavahelp.com/howto/fullscan/index.html

Once set up like that page describes...go offline, preferrably in safe mode (tap f8 on boot)and run its scan...use the "custom scanning" option.
Let it remove all it finds.
Reboot to finish cleaning.

While still offline...

Again empty out temp internet files, offline content, history.
I would also empty out c:\windows\temp, and anything that looks remotely suspicious in this location:

C:\documents and settings\your name\local settings\temp
(you will need to enable show hidden files/folders)

Here is a program that will help remove all those files safely and completely:

http://www.it-mate.co.uk/support/idsuite.asp

Reboot after cleanup.

You may be getting re-infected because of IE security settings not set up correctly and/or missing a few MS updates.
There must be some site you keep hitting that re-infects you....so I wouldn't go surfin until stuff below is set up....

First visit windows update and install any missing critical updates.

Then visit here to help with IE security settings help: (Default settings are not adequate)

http://www.boards.cexx.org/viewtopic.php?t=957

Once that is set up...

The program I was talking about is Spywareblaster and IE-Spyad.

http://www.javacoolsoftware.com/spywareblaster.html
Once set up...let it go thru the tutorial...and then enable protection for all in the list (it will show all unprotected)
Once set up...it will show all protected.

IE-Spyad puts several thousand known bad sites in the restricted zone of IE which has active x, java, scripting, and anything else potientially dangerous disabled.
If you happen to hit a bad site...they can't do anything to you.
Downside is alot of pages don't display right...but if it's in my restricted zone...I dont want to be there anyway.
Many of these sites look neutral but are not.

Download here:

http://www.staff.uiuc.edu/~ehowes/main.htm

Read carefully on install instructions...it is a little different install procedure.

Your spybot also has additional protection:

Start spybot (advanced mode)
Click red Immunize button
Ok the prompt
Click the immunize button at bottom of window
Scroll down to install the "bad download blocker for IE" Click "install"

I also use another spyware detector...it has shown a few things that both ad-aware and spybot has missed. It's just a scanner tho, but if anything does show up...clicking on the detected item(s) will bring you to a page with good instructions for removal.
Program is Bazooka and is free:

http://www.kephyr.com/spywarescanner/

Something else that has me wondering....

I see your antivirus running in the list of running processes but it is not showing up in the 04 entries of your hijack log..(the 04's are the auto start entries...that is what starts up with windows)
Are you having to start your antivirus manually all the time?...does it work ok?

Just to rule out possible virus...I would run a full scan of your system.

If you want 2nd AV opinion...try a scan here:

http://www.ravantivirus.com/scan

(you will need to shut off your own AV to prevent conflicts.

If something does turn up in virus scan that can't be cleaned...let me know what and exactly where it is located. (full file path)

Let me know if a rscan with ad-aware, spybot, Bazooka if you use it always flag the same things other than cookies.

Thanks

When we are sure all is cleaned out....going to need to purge your system restore points as windows may have backed up some of the nasty little buggers.
If anything is in system restore...it cant do anything unless you use it...so we will wait till last to do.

I never give up!

OK it's not showing up after changing dates any more, so I'm pretty sure it's dead...
Here's what worked for me:

- booted to SAFE MODE
- manually deleted websiteviewer folder, all files in my temp folder, the prefech file, and avisynth32.dll
- manually deleted any registry keys referencing websiteviewer, 123070, & avisynth32
- ran all the various spyware, adware, etc. programs to see if they caught anything else
- rebooted to normal mode (changed system clock for testing)
- ran all the various programs again (just for piece of mind)
- opened Internet Explorer - all was good!

I've since changed the date several times and rebooted - still hasn't reappeared.

Oh yea - don't forget to delete the dial-up connection that it creates.

Don't know if this will help anybody else, but thought I would offer.

You have a few issues to deal with...may take a few steps to clean up.

First what looks like cool websearch hijack...

Download the CWShredder that is shown in response # 5

Save it to disk, go offline and d.click to run.
Reboot and run again...just to be sure.

Next Make a seperate folder just for hijackthis:

Hit the ctrl+e keys, double click (c:)
Right click, point to new, click new folder
Name it HJT
Move hijackthis.exe to that folder.
If we need to restore anything with hijack...it makes it easier to do.

Next start hijack again and check the following entries if present:

c:\windows\system32\zzb.exe <-file
c:\windows\ihisojjr.exe <-file
c:\program files\DefyMessFour <-folder
c:\windows\system32\p2p networking <-folder

While still in safe mode...

Clean out temporary internet files:

Start> settings> control panel> internet options.
Click delete files
Check delete offline content at the popup
Click ok
Click "clear history"
Click ok

Next go to C:\windows\temp
Clean out everything in there.

Next boot to regular windows and check add/remove programs in control panel for:

Altnet points manager
P2P Networking
Websiteviewer

If either are present...remove them.

Go to your control panel> dial up connections> check for a connection listed...TIBS41...if listed...delete it.

The file Altnet.exe does not look right(altnet points manager by rights loads from the program files folder...this one isn't)...can you check that file here:

http://www.kapersky.com/remoteviruschk.html

Once you get to the site browse to the folder:

c:\windows\altnet.exe

and get them to scan it....let me know results.

Post new log along with whatever kapersky says about altnet.exe

I've had this hot teens thing for at least a week now, and can't seem to get rid of it. Spybot only seems to get rid of a couple parts of it, and it just keeps coming back no matter how many registry entries I delete. I don't have Hijack This, so I've been mainly just searching through my hard drive and registry for files/entries that I know are associated with this damn dialer and deleting them. I tried Bill's suggestions about booting in safe mode and deleting everything, and I thought that had done the trick, but today I set my system clock ahead and up popped that damn hot teens icon.

Here's a list of the files that this dialer installs on my drive:

123070.EXE-075F3B7E.pf in c:\windows\prefetch
123070.DLR-337EF64B.pf in c:\windows\prefetch
123070.dlr in c:\program files\websiteviewer
123070.ban in c:\program files\websiteviewer
123070.dd in c:\program files\websiteviewer
123070.ico in c:\program files\websiteviewer
123070.exe in c:\program files\websiteviewer
123070.dlr in c:\documents and settings\<current user>\local settings\temp
K.EXE-2A53B521.pf in c:\windows\prefetch
k.exe in c:\documents and settings\<current user>\local settings\temp
folder c:\program files\websiteviewer
dial up connection: TIBS41

Right now I'm not finding the avisynth32.dll file, but I've found it before.

When I go into the registry, I find entries for k.exe, 123070.exe, avisynth32.dll, etc., and they all are in folders under something called Search Assitant, which I find in different parts of the registry, eg:

HKCU\software\microsoft\search assitant\ACMru\5604\

In there we have the values:

000 - avisynth32
001 - TIBS
002 - 123070
003 - k.exe
004 - websiteviewer

Last night I booted in safe mode and deleted every file on my hard drive that came up when I search for avisynth32, k.exe, 123070, websiteviewer, etc., and every registry key that came up when I searched for search assistant, 123070, k.exe, avisynth32, TIBS, etc. I figured that would do it, but as you know, it came back today.

Interestingly, the registry key for search assistant that I described above is the only one I can find today, whereas I found it at least three or four times last night.

I have now found these keys in HKCU\software\microsoft\windows\ShellNoRoam\MUIcache

c:\docume~1\<current user>\locals~1\temp\123070.exe
c:\program files\websiteviewer\123070.exe
c:\program files\websiteviewer\123070.dlr

That's it for now, although I'm sure there's something else lurking around that will make all this stuff come back. Sorry for having to write so much, but hopefully all this info will help us figure out what's allowing this dialer to keep reinstalling itself. I've installed Mozilla Firefox in the hope that this thing only works through IE, but I'm not even sure that did the trick (the last time it reinstalled - which you can see coming because the screen flickers - I was working in Firefox). I really REALLY want to get rid of this damn thing, so let's figure out a way to kill it.

Bill nailed it just as I did. I kept forgeting avisynth.dll or avifile32.dll or something like that. It's a BHO (Browser Helper Object) and it helps hot teens come on when you run internet explorer. Now it doesn't reload itself anymore. Your registry shows those values in the search assistant file cause you've been searching for them bosterton. They do nothing of value there except remember stuff you are looking up. Just do what bill did, except I didn't put it in safe mode and all is well. Download hijack this (it's free on download.com) cause it helps to get rid of the nastiness. Here is the best steps
#1 reload computer
#2 cancel the k.exe and 123070.exe if they are running in the process list
#3 delete
Program Files/Websiteviewer
Hot Teens on Desktop and Start Menu
Documents and Setting/User Name/Local Files/Temp-- k.exe and 123070.exe
WinNT/Prefetch--123070.exe, 123070.dlr
WinNT/System32/avifile32.dll (or avisynth)
#4 Search for k, 123070, and websiteviewer in registry and delete
#5 Find HKLM/Software/Microsoft/Windows/Run dumprep 0 -k and delete
#6 Run "msconfig" and take the check off of dumprep 0 -k
#7 Restart
walla! Now don't press the accept button when it pops up on the porn site when you want to watch the free movie. (suspected origination)

oh, other quick notes. I have just found out that the avisynth or avifile is actually legit. That's the catch. Hijack this finds the one with the common name, but it's a BHO instead of a microsoft file. also delete the TIBS41 dialer too. 3 days with no hot teens and running.

Bosterson, and whoever else...

Wow...all these logs in one thread is confusing....not only to me but I imagine to all posting here...

Anyhow; if you can find a copy of that darn 123070.exe file...email me a copy of it...I want to analyze it and submit it to several anti-malware sites.
Please zip it if possible.
Click my name for email addy.


Once I find info on this little bugger...I will advise what next...it will take a couple days.

Until then...If you havn't already; download Ad-aware, update it. (reference file is now 01R 279
Restart ad-aware, set it up like this page suggests:

http://www.lavahelp.com/howto/fullscan/index.html

Ad-aware download:

http://www.lavasoftusa.com/support/download/

Once updated and set up like that....go offline to run the scan preferably in safe mode (tap f8 on boot)
Make sure custom scanning mode is checked.

Once scan is done...click next> right click in results window> click "select all"
Ok the prompt.

Reboot.

Re-scan.

Empty out all temporary internet files including offline content.
Clear history
Clean out c:\windows\temp
Clean out c:\documents and settings\your name\*local settings\temp
*=hidden file...enable show hidden files and folders in "folder options" within the control panel.

If any other users are on your computer...

Do the same procedures as above for all users.

There is another program that might remove that crap..

http://www.emsisoft.com/en/

Download the a2 free.(on the left)
You will need to register with them to get updates.
Update the program.
Run it's scan while offline and disable antivirus to prevent conflicts.

Wait till I get more info on that file before doing anything else...I don't want this getting out of hand and see someone deleting system files.
There may be specific removal instructions we are missing.

To all -

Something I should have stated earlier...
You probably don't want to try some of the things I've posted unless you really know what you're doing (or want to learn). Blender's right - it could turn ugly.

Of course, no matter what you try, the worst thing that could happen would be Windows crapping out completely and you have to re-install. If you think about it though, that only takes a couple of hours (as long as you've backed everything up) -which is probably less time than you've spent trying to kill the freakin' bug.

For the record - I'm not suggesting a re-install here. I'm just stating the obvious.

Your log looks clean.

Now before something else infects you...

Download Spywareblaster from here:

Spywareblaster

Once installed, update it...go through its little tutorial and suggestions to set up all its protection.
Check for updates about once a week to keep up with the new nasties.

Another program I use is IE-Spyad..
It puts several thousand known adware/crapware sites in your restricted zone in IE which by default has java, active x, downloading, and anything else that may be harmful disabled...so if you happen on a bad site...they can't mess you up.
It is updated about once a month. Follow instructions on the page for install/update...the procedure is a little different.
It will not affect safe sites operation.

Download here:

IE-Spyad

Both programs mentioned above are free!

Don't forget to keep windows up to date too.

Here is a good page to read:

How Did I Get Infected?

Take care.

Just thought I'd let you know and thank you....I followed everything you suggested -- along with the programs you suggested others start using.....several days now and nothing has popped up. I think I'm clean!!! I really appreciate all that you did. I was lost otherwise......I'll keep looking for when you figure out what 123070.exe does....I have no doubt you will....it was on my computer as well....but it's gone now.....

Glad it's finally gone! I have never had so much trouble hacking a dialer out of a system yet...nasty!

It seems it is a newer varient of this:
The file name is different but seems to do the same thing.

http://www.trendmicro.com/vinfo/virusencyclo/default5.asp?VName=TROJ_PORNDIAL.BP&VSect=T

You were likely told that it was a tool to assist viewing the site that installed it...they called it websiteviewer and it was really a premium rate dialer.

I had recieved a copy of the file and had a look at it...pretty much the same as one I downloaded.

Symantec calls it something else...

http://securityresponse.symantec.com/avcenter/venc/data/dialer.wsv.html

Take care and all the best.

If after running ad-aware the following items remain in your hijack log...

Start hijack again while offline and check the following:

O2 - BHO: TX4 - {00000000-0000-5DFC-5652-1705043F6518} - C:\WINDOWS\System32\audiosrv32.dll

O2 - BHO: (no name) - {53707962-6F74-2D53-2644-206D7942484F} - (no file)

If you did not lock IE settings then check this too:

O6 - HKCU\Software\Policies\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Control Panel present

O16 - DPF: {69432678-2906-2705-1128-068943397621} -

Once all are checked close all windows except hijack and click fix checked

Reboot the computer

While still offline...

Empty out temporary internet files including offline content, history.

Clean out:

C:\windows\temp
c:\documents and settings\your name\*local settings\temp *=hidden (show hidden files and folders)

If there is a dialup account for TIBS anything...delete the account:

Start> settings> control panel> dialup networking> check account info in there..
Just hilight the tibs one> click remove

Repost new log when done.

Did you get that ad-aware prog?

Also check in above posts for spywareblaster and IE-Spyad links for protection.

Your log still shows some things that need cleaning.

First place hijack in it's own folder in case we need to recover anything...it makes backups which do not work when run from a temp file.

Before fixing/deleting anything can you send me a zipped copy of the following files please to analyze?

c:\windows\dl.exe <-this file
c:\windows\dlm.exe <-this file
c:\windows\sxchost.exe <- this file

Copy them all to one folder and zip if possible.
Refer to title of this thread in subject of email so I can identify and not delete email.
Click my name for email addy.

Next while offline check the following in hijack:

O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [Dial32] C:\WINDOWS\dl.exe

O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [Dial33] C:\WINDOWS\dlm.exe

O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [Upgrade Service] C:\WINDOWS\sxchost.exe

Once checked close all windows except hijack and click fix checked

Reboot the computer to safe mode (tap the f8 key on boot) and delete the following:

c:\windows\dl.exe <-file
c:\windows\dlm.exe <-file
c:\windows\sxchost.exe <-file

While still in safe mode clear out your temporary internet files:

Start> settings> control panel> internet options (may need to switch to classic view to see icons)
On the general tab click "delete files"
On the popup check "delete all offline content"
Click ok
Click "clear history"
Yes at the prompt.

Next go to:

c:\windows\temp
Clean out that folder...yes all can go.


Reboot to normal windows and post new hijack log.

Check links in response #27 for protection.

Hello again.

Dont worry about those files..

Start hijack again and check the following: (I missed these the first round)

R1 - HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main,Search Bar = http://srch-us9.hpwis.com/

R1 - HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main,Default_Search_URL = http://srch-us9.hpwis.com/

R1 - HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main,Search Bar = http://srch-us9.hpwis.com/


Once all are checked close all windows except hijack and click "fix checked"

Reboot the computer when done.

Things working better now?

Log looks good. :)

Now to protect yourself from future infection....follow some of the links in my above replies.
Particularly IE-Spyad, spywareblaster, All critical windows updates, Spywareguard, Ad-aware, Spybot S&D....I use em all.

Good luck and all the best.

Blender -

Thanks for the help. I ended up installing Ad-Aware at some point last week and it apparently killed the entire dialer without me having to even be in safe mode. I've been free of the program for 3 or 4 days at least, and I'm back running IE without it having popped up.

If you had time to analyze the files I sent you, did you figure out how it keeps reinstalling itself despite our attempts to delete its main files and registry keys? I'm curious.

Thanks again.

Glad you got it worked out.

I got the file you sent...thanks!

I am just learning to analyze those things but from what I couls see it looks like it also installed a copy to:

c:\documents and settings\user name\*local settings\temp
*=hidden file
If the main files were deleted like we did so many times and even deleting temp internet files...once ie was restarted that dialer would re-load itself from that other temp folder...looks like it was instructed to but not sure of the exact sequence of events leading to re-infection.
Ad-aware has had a few updates since last week...mabye it included that dialer.
Also using the tweaked settings suggested somewhere in this thread...that should have nailed it. Looks like it did for you.

I was unable to send that file to lavasoft (makers of ad-aware)...they sent me email back saying they could not accept contaminated attachments and told me I was infected with Dialer\Tibs.a, they could not read my question and to clean my computer before sending them another email...LOL.
Apparently I had used the wrong address...likely someone else did get one sent thru...mabye one of the other guys that analyze these files.

Take care.

This might help some. I think I got rid of mine when I used Hijackthis to remove a line with "c:\windows\system32\authz32.dll".

Here's what I did...

First, I got rid of everything having to do with k.exe, 123070, websiteviewer, avisynth32 and avifile32. This included removing files, prefetch items, registry items, etc. (as described above THANKS)

Second, I advanced my system clock to check the status but I was still getting k.exe in the process list (which I stopped immediately).

Third I repeated step 1, and got rid of the authz32.dll line with Hijack. After that, I advanced my clock again and it didn't show up. I advanced it many more times with more advance days and I still didn't get it.

I am not a pro so I don't know if I screwed anything up. However, so far, so good.

Here's an interesting tidbit. Not sure if it's related though. I've been lurking, had the same problem but somewhat different. I didn't get the icon, but had the K.exe, etc. What I noticed about mine was that it would re-direct my browser, but only after I'd shut the computer down and restarted it. I followed the advice above and so far 3 days and nothing. Keeping my fingers crossed. Anyway, the other thing I noticed was that I was suddenly receiving tons of X-rated emails when this thing started. Since I've (hopefully) gotten rid of it, I haven't had any in 3 days!

it has morphed again today. Nasty bugger. I cannot reboot into safe mode now. it goes into a continuos reboot loop moments after choosing any form of safe mode reboot including through msconfig.

I am on XP pro fully patched to the hilt. Spybot seach and destroy and adaware have not fixed it. I have hijackthis and may post my processes to you, but What is the most recent definative solution to this nasty thing?

It auto opened IE and sent me to a page asking my to click yes to agree to the dialers terms. I did not save the link as I just now saw that you guys have been battling this here for a while.

its most recent variant installed here too:
C:\Program Files\SBITPlugin

C:\Program Files\Boltshimsixth\help wma.exe is newly created today about the time I think this hot teens dialer updated itself.

This is the nastiest bug I have ever had!

Any idea why I cant go into safemode without going into a bootloop?
