Once again I've got spyware!

Comment:
Ok here it goes. I have 2 problems.

1. Every now and then, about once every 2 mins, a blank website comes up with the address in the title bar,

"http://www.ad-w-a-r-e.com/callback_ron.php?GUID={C1000E9F-F9A1-4196-AB7C-7535D45CF487}&country=GB&type=".

There's nothing to it, just a blank webpage with that address in and this text (but changes everytime it seems),

"sendExternalEvent('EVENT:IEBROWSER:www.automotive.com/redir/newcar.asp?src_id=2193&kw_camp=ron');".

2. Ok this problem may be a bit simpler. When a non-existant url is entered, I get the Page Cannot Be Displayed page, but then it automatically jumps to "http://www.spotresults.com/dns.php?url=MYSITE".

How can I clean these as they are really irritating. I've done the usual Spybot, HJT and Ad-Aware but with to avail. I cannot seem to be able to get rid of these.

Does anyone have any bright ideas??

Thanks a lot in advance :)

Run HijackThis 1.98.2, make sure it's installed in your program files. Run it and post a log.

Also make sure you're fully up to date with Ad-Aware SE and Spybot S&D and download and install SpywareBlaster 3.2, if you haven't already got it.

Download and run CWShredder 1.59.1 too, if you haven't already used that.

Ok, boot into safe mode and open up HJT and stick a checkmark next to these ...

R1 - HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Internet Connection Wizard,ShellNext = wmplayer.exe //ICWLaunch

and remove.

Reboot machine. Problem should be gone. Post new log file, specifying that the problem has, or has not, been resolved.

Make sure you have spywareblaster 3.2 installed from now on. Keep everything up to date.

Then I suggest you do a full system online virus scan along with a Trojan scan. Because your log is clean and there's nothing left to remove ;)

I would seriously look at what you have installed on your computer too and fine tooth comb it using google. If you can't account for everything installed in add and remove programs and everything in your program files. Then you need to be asking questions about it.

Do all that first before you turn in one last log file.

:) LOL. D'ya know what ? I deliberatley left the VX2 Cleaner out of it because I just couldn't see any VX2 connection.

But Abnormals right. It's last chance saloon, so you might as well download and install it, but get it from the Lavasoft support forums, I know it's the latest and works properly with Ad-Aware SE 1.05.

There have been (were) reported problems between two versions of the VX2 plugins that were available from either site. The old plugin didn't play nice with the new Ad-Aware SE, consequently didn't work at all or failed to work correctly sommetimes.

Read the page too, tells you how to use.

Like I said, I know this one works properly from this link ...

Actually Nick, I can't remember if I made you install it the last time we went through this. So check you don't already have it. Look in the "Add-Ons" bit of the program.

Sorry, confession time. I did use it last time, but removed it :(( Sorry. I'll install it again. Do I need to keep it?

One small thing, when using ad-aware, it brings up this VX2 program as a problem? Why's this?

I ran VX2, rebooted, scanned computer, rebooted, scanned computer again and it found 71 critical objects (all except one - a hijacker - were VX2). Why is this. Should I just ignore the VX2 problems or are they not actually problems.

I've saved a log of the scan if you're interested. Here it is:

It also seems like the problems are gone..but it'll take a bit of time to confirm that of course. I'll keep you posted here.

Reply: (edit)
Well that was the nature of the problem before wasn't it. Transient type problem. But that's the nature of spyware in general. Transient.

If you look back in this post. You resolved problems 1 & 2 but gained a pop up problem. next time you posted the orignal 1 & 2 were back and the pop up had gone.

It's very simple.

Disable system restore and run those online virus and trojan scans. Re-enable restore after.

Uninstall Ad-Aware SE Personal 1.05 reboot machine. Start again and re-install a new download.

Then, immediately after, install the VX2 Cleaner from that link I gave you in response # 9. Follow instructions for it.

When complete, and you see VX2 Cleaner installed in "Add-Ons" >> DON'T get CONFUSED by a RED CIRCLE with an X on it where it says >> VX2 Cleaner.

Highlight VX2 Cleaner by clicking on it and then click RUN TOOL.

Now UPDATE Ad-Aware SE 1.05. Now RUN the full Ad-Aware SE scan (not just running the VX2 Cleaner part of it, like I described).

**
DO NOT, I REPEAT, DO NOT post another Ad-Aware SE log file. >>>

At least till someone asks for one. :) :)

**

Your last HJT log file is clean, I'll be surprised if it doesn't stay that way. At least for the time being ;)


After you've done everything, run the machine and surf with it for 24 hours. Run Ad-Aware and Spybot again and all that should be there are cookies and minor s---.

Post back to this thread if you get anymore problems. Provided of course it hasn't dropped off to page 2.

Many thanks!!

Make sure you have the latest updated VX2 Cleaner along with ALL other updated Add-Ons for Ad-Aware SE that you install. ....

Lavasoft support forums >>> Lavasoft - Additional Tools, Add-ons and Language Files >>> Ad-Aware SE Add-ons.

You can get the direct downloads from there.

LMAO :)

The Lavasoft forums have been hijacked or they forgot to pay the bill by the looks of it !

I suggest you wait till normal service has been resumed. Or try the original Lavasoftusa link, if you can't wait.

I wouldn't bother clicking on the support forums link if I were you.

Lavasoft forums back up and running again. Add Ons available from the support forum.

All the Add ons from all the links are the current versions now.

So any VX2 Cleaner add on you get from Lavasoftusa, Lavasoft support forums, Majorgeeks or wherever should all carry the 1.03 version number.
