my main desktop picture had been changed to a publicity to a site to remove program, i guess it s hijaked, how can i fix that?? each time i try to change my desktop picture it comes back to that site publicity.

download and run hijack this
Hijack This
And copy and paste it here
Hijack Log" IF IT AINT BROKE - LEAVE IT ALONE "
May I suggest that you might find it easier "initially" to paste the log in here:
HJT DETECTIVEMy reasoning is that "HJT Detective" tends to focus straight in on some known "nasties" that can be removed immediately (the red list).
You then get HJT to remove the nasties, run it again and then paste your "new" log into the website given in post #2. This lists everything that is running (good or bad) and with a now shorter log it will be much easier to sift through.
Google can be useful to check the questionable items (look in Google Groups too).

... my #3. Ooops sorry, in my penultimate para I meant the second link given in response #1. The revised link in post #2 is the HJT program download itself, which is obviously your very first step. Derek.W
BOB i am not an expert in IT to be able to differ between good and bad ones, so hijack this cant help me, i got a list of programs
Here is the log file i got:

I think you ought to "try", after all it is only you who can actually act, we can only advise. First paste that log in HJT DETECTIVE (see my link as advised). It shows just one entry under "Malicious", quite good really. You you should let HijackThis delete this one. Shout if you cannot see how to do it (you just tick the right entry).
Next produce a "new" (cleaner) log.
Now post this new log into the second link given in post #1 (Hijack Log). I appreciate that there will be a lot of entries, good and bad, and this part might be a bit much for you. See what you make of it.
If it is too greek then post it back on here instead. I am in UK and it is already 3.50am so I can't do any more tonight. I will definitely be back again tomorrow sometime. Someone else might be prepared to pick it up before then.

i did all, and my main desktop image still hijacked
Put your latest log on here and I'll see if there is anything still lurking. It may just be that the background image file is still present. Right click destop and let me know what wallpaper is highlighted. You could try setting it as "none" (although best remove the file sometime).

First get HijackThis to remove this entry: O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [sp] rundll32 C:\DOCUME~1\gsioufi\LOCALS~1\Temp\se.dll,DllInstall
Once this has been done, search your system for the file named se.dll and delete it. You should be able to deduce it's location, from the path given above in 8 character format. The main folder is DOCUMENTS AND SETTINGS, I expect you will decipher what LOCALS~1 is (probably LOCAL SETTINGS).
Now get HJT to remove the following entry too (not a problem but as the file PXAgent.exe is missing it serves no purpose):
O23 - Service: Prevx Agent (PrevxAgent) - Unknown owner - C:\Program Files\PREVX\Prevx Home\PXAgent.exe (file missing).
Reboot.
Two things concern me. Firstly this might be a virus/trojan called "about:blank" which is a pig to remove (keeps changing file name). Secondly I "now" know that you are using W2000 but I know little about that operating system and would have probably not jumped in if I had realised that.
If you are still in trouble after my suggestions it might be best to repost giving your OS as Win2000 this time, rather than just putting X in the boxes. This post is getting old so I doubt anyone else will pop by.
Derek.W
Derek: do u mean i have to delete all files ending with se.dll?? I did a search on my computer by typing se.dll and i got lots of files, as:
pscparse.dll (6 of them)
xmlparse.dll
database.dll
ccgse.dll
iffmouse.dll
sqlparse.dll
probegse.dll
pebase.dll
u32base.dll
xmlparse.dll
dssbase.dll
psbase.dll
rsabase.dll
admparse.dll
ase.dll
dssbase.dll
dssbase.dll
mmutilise.dll
psbase.dll
rsabase.dll
pscparse.dll
admparse.dll
dssbase.dll
mmutilise.dll
psbase.dll
rsabase.dlldo i have to delete them all?? is it safe?
Can't stop now but I'd hold off on deleting that lot, even at a quick glance some are genuine - they are probably fine. Is there no file which is just se.dll ? That's all I meant. Maybe HJT deleted it.
Have you still got problem?
I'll be back in a few hours.
Derek.W
yes i still have same desktop problem, i can t put any pic on my desktop as a background on screen. :(
Post your log again, we'd better make sure it's now clear. It's a crazy time here in the UK (getting light LOL) so I can't stop now. I'll pick it up again tomorrow. Otherwise by all means repost the problem (but not the log, unless someone asks for it).
One other thing. Go to Display Properties and see if this background is showing in the list of backgrounds. I'll leave you to try and guess what it might be called. I'm assuming Win2k is similar to W98 so if this bit makes no sense then forget it for now.
Derek.W
Go to Control Panel,Display,Desktop, Customise Desktop, click the web tab and you'll probably find it in here. Hope thats a bit of help
