Hello, y'all...First, I want to give a big thanks everyone at computing.net. The assistance and information I have found in the forums has been excelent. I have consistently solved problems with my system without having to post; just by reading the help y'all have given others. Thank you.
Unfortunately. I think I need to post, now :(
N.A.V. pops up with "Trojan" (howiper.exe) and "Trojan.Favadd" (favset.exe) and won't delete them. My browser (both IE and Firefox) redirects to search sites or malicious sites whenever I use a link. My instant messenger freezes during chat.
After some research, I tried to delete favset.exe with Killbox, but got the error message:
pendingfilerenamingoperation Registry Data has been removed by External Process
I figure that the trojan got into my registry, but I'm concerned about changing the wrong thing.
i hope someone here can help me with this, programs on my computer are running slower and slower, none of the spyware programs find anything, and I want to avoid re-formatting.
Any help would be appreciated
Again, thank you!

Please post a Hijack this log so I can see what's going on. You can download Hijack this here.
We'll see about a Panda scan after I know what I'm up against.

Let's go for that panda scan . All those exe's are unfamiliar to me but I can see some other definite problems. Save the log of the panda scan as a txt file and post it back here for me please. Let's see if it can better identify those exe's.

Sorry to interrupt, but I got a nasty virus from the online Panda scan and because I wasn't a paid subscription holder they blew me off. I would rather do a Kaspersky or BitDefender scan if I were you. Just a bit of advice that will hopefully help
Hopefully my advice will help you...Please post back with your results....thanks

I hope it helps too. Thanks XPuser.
To anyone else or even you XP of course. Does anyone know what all those 04 entries are? All the ones beginning with "dm....exe". I've seen something like this before but the entries were all "ym...exe". I can't remember what the person did to fix this and I can't find a thread anywhere with this problem. I just wanted to know that if I start removing these viruses and some spyware programs, if these trojans will disappear or stop being written by a rogue program? I do believe that they are trojans. I can have him remove them with Hijack this and then manually delete them in safe mode afterward but will that get rid of them? If not, what file are they associated with?
I will gladly let someone else take over here. I don't want to get into something I don't recognize and cause other problems for him.
I've tried inputting a few of the entries into:
answers that work
Greatis startup application database
pacmans startup programs list
Kephyr file database
Wintasks file database
Wintasks process library
and Windows startup online databaseto come up empty handed.
Any help at all would be great here.
Proud member of Alliance of Security Analysis Professionals since 2005. ASAP

Thank you, Blood. I also, was unable to find any info on them. That's when I decided to come to y'all. I'm sure my computer has been infected for a month or more.
On a bit of a side note...I un-installed Yahoo today because of all the probs, but I see from the Hijack log that it's still in the registry. Is it safe to remove those entries?
Sorry the Pandascan took so long. Here it is:

Again, Thank You for your time!

Not much in the scan really. A little odd seeing as what's in your computer. I'll stick with you and see what happens here until someone can come up with something. I'll do some more researching tonight and we can start with those viruses for now. I'll be back tomorrow with some instructions for those.
Once again, any help from anyone on this would be great.

That hit me like a slap in the face.
I'll get a speech ready for you tomorrow Chuck. Right now, I have to go to bed. 3 am comes early.
Proud member of Alliance of Security Analysis Professionals since 2005. ASAP

Found some good info for now. Try this to see what happens. I have another option if it doesn't work but it involves downloading a program and I avoid that if possible unless it's something you'll use more than once.
Reboot the computer to Safe mode (press F8 when windows start).
Go to Start > Settings > Control Panel> Add/Remove Programs, scroll down the list to find WareOut or WareOut Spyware Remover to uninstall WareOut.
Open a Dos command prompt window (from Start > Programs > Accessories ), enter the following commands:cd %WinDir%\System32
regsvr32 /u hybsys32.dll
regsvr32 /u wosys32 .dll
del hybsys32.dll
del wosys32 .dllClick Start > Run, type 'regedit', and click OK to open the Registry editor.

"Once again, any help from anyone on this would be great."
I can't help but wonder: have you (ever) had much success analyzing logs?
I'm just sayin' - but it doesn't look that way (ASAP membership notwithstanding)
We've heard that a million monkeys at a million keyboards could produce the complete works of Shakespeare; now, thanks to the Internet, we know that is not true

I see bloodhound114 has retire for the evening. Should you want to work toward removing you wareout infection do the following. If you would prefer, wait on him/her.
For "fixwareout to work, as as described in the paragraph below you will need to disable Norton's script blocking after you have downloaded "fixwareout" as follows:
Start Norton AntiVirus.
If Norton AntiVirus is installed as part of Norton SystemWorks or Norton Internet Security, then start that program.
Click Options.
If you see a menu, click Norton AntiVirus.
In the left pane, click Script Blocking.
In the right pane, uncheck Enable Script Blocking (recommended).
Click OK.Please download Fixwareout from this link
http://swandog46.geekstogo.com/Fixwareout.exe
or
http://downloads.subratam.org/Fixwareout.exe
Save it to your desktop and run it. Click next, then Install, then make sure "Run fixit" is checked and click finish. The fix will begin; follow the prompts. You will be asked to reboot your computer; please do so. Your system may take longer than usual to load; this is normal.Post a copy at the log located at C:\fixwareout\report.txt .
Once you have posted the log above 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 modeDownload Ewido Security Suite then set it up this way Ewido Setup Instructions We will need this later in safe mode

I apreciate that, Jabuck, but I think I'm done for the night, also.
I don't think wareout is the problem, though, and I also don't care to download MORE programs. I do have, and use, Ewido, Spybot, and Ad-ware in addition to norton.
Following Bloodhound's instructions:I found no Wareout in "Add or Remove".
In the command screen, "specified module could not be found" for both hybsys32.dll and wosys32.dll.
In regedit, I could not find ANY of the referenced entries...though I DID find and delete "dmoka.exe" and "dmger.exe".
Everything else in that particular reg key was legit (except "nwiz" "Cmaudio"...I don't know what those are yet.)Then, I ran Ccleaner and deleted every issue it found in the registry except those for known products. I ran HJT again and it showed none of those dm***.exe's. In HJT, I deleted every entry for Yahoo...which I had uninstalled because it was having probs, too.
I use Yahoo to chat with my clients, so now I'm going to try to re-install it, see if it works and keep an eye out for the dreaded Norton Alert for Favadd and Howiper ("repair failed" and "access denied").
thanks again, y'all. I'll look into this thread tomorrow morning, before I head to my day job, and see what else we can get rid of!

Wareout is the problem, should you lose your internet service in the process of trying to remove this beast do the following:
Go to Start -> Control Panel, and choose Network Connections. Then right click on your default connection, usually Local Area Connection or Dial-up Connection if you are using Dial-up, and left click on properties. Double-click on the Internet Protocol (TCP/IP) item and select the radio button that says Obtain DNS servers automatically. Click OK twice, and restart your computer.

I've submitted your Hijack log to some friends of mine with very impressive backrounds. I/they should have something figured out by tonight.
For now, could you restart your computer and then come up with a new Hijack log for me. Not that you have to post it right away, just keep it somewhere for now.
For now I've got to go back to work for the afternoon. I'll be home in a few hours.

Can do...here ya go:

Still waiting on that response. Until then, stick with Jabuck. He knows what he's doing. It may also be a good idea (if you haven't in the past while) to create a restore point in case something happens when we start digging in the registry. It's better to come back to a poor restore point than a non-existent one.
To Jabuck:
What are your thoughts on Blacklight, Avenger and doing some registry searches with RegSrch.vbs for Wareout. If RegSrch won't show wareout then we may be dealing with a Bube variant. Curious on your thoughts. I haven't done much more looking since lastnight. I'm just going from what I've talked to a couple people about.
Proud member of Alliance of Security Analysis Professionals since 2005. ASAP

I got that reply I was waiting for. They'd prefer that you run a program before they go any further. We had it pinned. It was Wareout.
The program they'd like you to run is Fix Wareout
It can also be downloaded at this alternate link
They want to make sure that Wareout is good and gone and they'd like a fresh Hijack this log afterward. Also with that, they'd like you to do a scan from Kapersky Webscanner and return that log too.
The instructions were as follows:
Please read these instructions carefully and then print out or copy this page to Notepad in order to assist you when carrying out the fix. You should not have any open browsers when you are following the procedures below.
If there is anything you don't understand, please ask BEFORE proceeding with the fixes.
Please ensure that you follow the instructions in the order I have them listed.Please download FixWareout or use this alternate location.
Save it to your desktop and run it. Click Next, then Install, make sure "Run fixit" is checked and click Finish.
The fix will begin; follow the prompts. You will be asked to reboot your computer; please do so. Your system may take longer than usual to load; this is normal.When your system reboots, follow the prompts. Afterwards, HijackThis will launch. Please click Scan, and check the following items:

ok, ran fixware out.
Then I ran HJT and fixed alot of stuff.
I have both reports posted here.
But I had a prob with Kapersky.
everytime I "accepted" to download the online scan and definitions, IE poped up with "error on page" and the download would not start.
Maybe it's just traffic with Kapersky?
I'll try again in the morning and post again...if I have anything to post.Sorry, y'all. I had a long work day and will be away for work for most of the weekend.
I WILL keep this process going. I appreciate y'all sticking with me.Here's the fixwareout report and HJT log:

Now we're getting somewhere. We're down to a couple 02 entries and those two 017 entries. I guess I could finish from this point on but I'll let them guys take a real good look at it. I should be getting my reply some time around noon (currently 7:30). The Kapersky scan should run but I guess if you can't get it to, we'll deal with it later. Did you turn off your real-time anti-virus scanners? You have a couple in there from Norton. Just turn off real-time scanning while Kapersky does its thing but don't forget to re-enable it after the scan.

Download killbox to your desktop from this link Killbox We will need it later in safe mode
The reason for posting the fixwareout log, as suggested in response #13 and #21, is to find all the bad files.
Run Hijack This again from safe mode and remove these items:
O2 - BHO: (no name) - {5BAB4B5B-68BC-4B02-94D6-2FC0DE4A7897} - (no file)
O17 - HKLM\System\CCS\Services\Tcpip\..\{AFE7782B-0322-4D1B-B6CB-4F7994981210}: NameServer = 85.255.114.196,85.255.112.149

Exit Hijack This
Run Killbox from safe mode. Start Killbox place a tick next to [x]Delete on reboot "Press the All Files button"
Copy this whole list into the windows clipboard, all the bolded file paths below. Copy the following list of files to clipboard by highlighting ALL of them and pressing CTRL + C (or, after highlighting, right-click and choose copy):C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM32\CSARN.exe
Next in Killbox go to File > Paste from clipboard
"Click on the All Files button."
Next click on the button that has the red circle with the white X in the middle.
It will ask for confimation to delete the files on next reboot and ask you if you want to reboot now.
Click Yes and let the computer reboot.If the computer does not automatiaclly reboot just restart it manually.
Run fixwareout once more and post it's log being sure that Norton's script blocking and any real time protection for antispyware tools is also turned off.
In case your host file has been damaged download "Hoster" from this link to your desktop Hoster Open it and click "Restore Microsoft's Original Host File". Then exit Hoster.
If you have system resore turned on you will need to purge it.
For instructions on how to purge system restore click Here
To create a new restore point go Start>Run>type "msconfig" without the quotes>ok>Launch System Restore>Tick the circle beside "create a restore point">next>name it anything you wish>Create>home>restart the computer.
Try the Kaspersky scan again.
Do a googe search for "spywareblaster" from and install it then be sure to update it, best antispyware tool out there.

I just got my reply back and it looks like Jabuck is on the right track (which I didn't doubt of course). I'll leave this with you as a reference.
One question for Jabuck: How did you come up with this line:
C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM32\CSARN.exe
Reply is as follows.Please read these instructions carefully and then print out or copy this page to
Notepad in order to assist you when carrying out the fix.═ You should not have
any open browsers when you are following the procedures below.

Please download Cleanup! (http://cleanup.stevengould.org) or use this Alternate
Link (http://www.greyknight17.com/spy/CleanUp.exe) if the main link does not

I see you already have Ewido.═ Please update Ewido to the latest definition
files.On the left hand side of the main screen click update.
Then click on Start Update.
The update will start and a progress bar will show the updates being installed.

Temporary Folders, please make a backup of these BEFORE running CleanUp! If you
have a 64 bit Operating System do NOT run Cleanup and let me know as we will use
another utility.Reboot

Thanks, Blood. Sorry for the late post.
Y'all were right, must have been Wareout. No more internet problems. I haven't re-installed the istant messenger, so I don't know the performance for that, yet. Serves me right for second-guessing y'all.
I'm going to try the cleaning in those last posts and get back with y'all with results.
Thanks again!

WOW! it's nice to an empty Ewido log!

Nothing illegit is running...that I can tell.
Of course, I've been wrong before.Take a look if y'all can, please. What do y'all think? Am I clean?

Use killbox just as you did in response #26 and delete this coolwebsaerch file:
c:\documents and settings\all users\favorites\Download Free Spyware Remover.url
Then do this registry edit to remove the unpsypc registry key:
Copy everything between the x's below to Notepad.
Name the file as fix.reg
Change the Save as Type to All Files
Save this file on the desktop.XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
Regedit4[-HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\extensions\CmdMapping\{BF69DF00-4734-477F-8257-27CD04F88779}]
XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
Then double-click on the fix.reg file, and when it prompts to merge say yes, and this will clear the registry entry.
