[CodeShark]

I keep getting a stupid pop up that just comes up out of nowhere. Today I left the computer on, with nothing running (to my knowledge except the following listed in this hijack) and a pop up came up. I usually get pop ups from alltheweb.com or some other search engine. I ran lavasoft's adaware and cleaned everything it listed, then I ran hijack this. The pop ups still occur. I don't know what could have happend since my kid sister also uses my computer and I dont monitor what she does. If anyone could help me get rid of this annoying pop up I will be very grateful. I'm pretty sure some sort of adware is installed on my computer, I just can't find it.

Here is my hijack:

[MFDnNC]

Before jumping into the log do this and post a new log - If you have them, make sure they are the current versions:

SpywareBlaster http://www.javacoolsoftware.com/spywareblaster.html
AdAware SE http://www.majorgeeks.com/download506.html
SpyBot S&D 1.3 http://www.safer-networking.org/en/download/

DL them (they are free), install them, check each for their
definition updates and then run AdAware and Spybot, fixing anything
they say.

 

[Maverick83]

It could be messenger. Does it run at all?

 

[CodeShark]

What pops up is a webpage from alltheweb.com not necessarily from that site all the time either. I've had yahoo pop up too sometimes. Hold on, I'm going to get all those adaware/spyware/spybot

 

[MFDnNC]

Wiil be interesting to see as having looked at the log a bit it looks ok, but do those and we'll see.

 

[CodeShark]

Ok, so I scanned using all of those ones you said to, but the pop ups still happen.

Here's a rescan of my hijack:

This one looks suspicious...maybe cuz the EXE is big...ionno

C:\WINDOWS\Explorer.EXE

its weird, the pop ups, they appear in the bottom right hand corner of my screen and are shrunken to a very small sized window. I only notice them because I see a new rectangle in my startmenu's taskbar. I can't see them if I try to restore them, but once maximized I see the stupid ad and its always a search engine, from lycos, google, yahoo, and some others.

 

[MFDnNC]

C:\WINDOWS\Explorer.EXE is normal and is large- main component of windows.

I don't see anything - I'll signal for a pro to help out.

 

[~Candy~]

Some sites have pop ups. Do you have the XP pop up blocker turned on?

 

[cybertech]

Post a HJT log while using your sister's login or while she is using the computer.

 

[Sephiroth11]

Easy fix. This little bugger should be removed:

O4 - HKCU\..\Run: [AIM] C:\Program Files\AIM\aim.exe -cnetwait.odl

It's an AIM file that boots popups and sother spyware on startup. :up:

 

[CodeShark]

Some sites have pop ups. Do you have the XP pop up blocker turned on?

I have the XP pop up blocker turned on.

And about my sister's logon, she has none. I let her use the computer under my credentials.

I'm going to try and get rid of that ad thing from aim now.

 

[Rollin' Rog]

I don't like the looks of this:

O21 - SSODL: Windows Media Format Runtime - {D156F7D9-2AAD-9E2A-69E4-909C966FD9FF} - C:\Program Files\Windows Media Player\wmlaunch.dll

Never seen it before, no hits for the dll or the CLSID number....

 

[CodeShark]

Damn the pop up still comes on...

well I removed that aim one and that wmlaunch, here's a revised.

[Rollin' Rog]

Did you reboot after removing it? And delete the wmlaunch.dll as well

 

[CodeShark]

Alright, I rebooted after deleting the file.

Here's another Hijack (because the pop up keeps coming up)

Here's a more detailed description about the pop ups that I recieve.

Generally, if it pops up another one won't come up. It shows up in the start menu's taskbar, but I can't see it on my desktop at first because the window starts out small and it tries to hide itself in the bottom right corner of my screen. After maximizing the screen I find out that the pop up is ALWAYS from a SEARCH ENGINE.

From Yahoo, google, lycos, alltheweb and its very annoying. It takes the focus away when I'm watching movies on full screen.

Anywho, here's an updated Hijack.

Run HijackThis and fix the following entries:

O16 - DPF: {BAC01377-73DD-4796-854D-2A8997E3D68A} - http://us.dl1.yimg.com/download.yah...ropper1_3us.cab

Download SpywareGuard from here:
http://www.majorgeeks.com/downloadget.php?id=3045&file=11&evp=62b4df661a6e0854aaa55e45fa7be8f2

Install Spyware Guard.

Restart your computer and post a fresh HijackThis log back on this thread.

 

[Rollin' Rog]

Try doing a clean boot as described here and see if the pop-up still appears.

http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;EN-US;310353

Also, download and unzip pv.zip. Run "runme.bat" and select the number 1 option for "Explorer" modules (I'm assuming you never load IE prior to these pop-ups; if so, select 2 also). Upload the log(s) as attachments.

http://tools.zerosrealm.com/pv.zip

Also run and copy/paste a log for "Startdreck". follow instructions here:

http://members.blackbox.net/hp_links/21/nikolaus.rameis/_data/startdreck.zip

Instructions:

Run StartDreck.exe. Click the 'Config', and click the button named: Unmark all. Now you'll see that the boxes that were checked, are no longer. Check the following boxs;
Under 'Registry' - All registry options
Under 'System/Drivers' - Running Processes and NT services
Click 'OK'. Now, back on the main screen, click the 'Save' button > Give it a name and click 'Save' > locate it and launch it. Copy/paste the logfile here.

 

[CodeShark]

hmmm I'm still waiting for a pop up to occur. So far so good. I'll do those two things if another pop up comes. I'll keep you updated.

 

[Rollin' Rog]

Great, no pop-up after the reboot I take it?

By the way if you do get one, open the Task Manager and see if there is any new process running there. Also run the "pv" and startdreck files with the pop-up still open.
