Hi, To have the fix work, you will need to temporarily turn off this program:

WinPatrol
Right-click the running icon of Winpatrol in the system tray and choose exit. It will

automatically restart at next boot. You can turn it back on later when done.

Run the second part of SmitFraudFix:
Note: You will be working in Safe Mode where this thread and the Net are not available,so copy these directions all to a text file in Notepad and save them on your desktop as steps.txt (or something similarly intelligent), OR> print them out.
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
Note : process.exe

is detected by some antivirus programs (AntiVir, Dr.Web, Kaspersky) as a

"RiskTool"; it is not a virus, but a program used to stop system processes. Antivirus

programs cannot distinguish between "good" and "malicious" use of such programs,

therefore they may alert the user.
http://www.beyondlogic.org/consulting/processutil/processutil.htm

• Reboot your computer into Safe Mode. You can do this by restarting your
  computer and continually tapping the F8 key until a menu appears. Use your up
  arrow key to highlight Safe Mode then hit enter.
  Double-click SmitfraudFix.exe
• Select 2 and hit Enter to delete infect files.
  You will be prompted: Do you want to clean the registry ? answer Y (yes) and hit Enter
  
  in order to remove the Desktop background and clean registry keys associated with the
  
  infection.
• The tool will now check if wininet.dll is infected. You may be prompted to replace
  
  the infected file (if found): Replace infected file ? answer Y (yes) and hit Enter to
  
  restore a clean file.
• A reboot may be needed to finish the cleaning process. The report can be found at
  
  the root of the system drive, usually at C:\rapport.txt

Copy and paste the contents of the saved log into a reply and include a NEW Hijackthis

log as well.

ALSO: If these appear in Add/Remove Programs,
Internet Explorer Security Plugin 2006
Internet Security Add-On

uninstall them, they may not be there that is OK, but look.
You may get the message "The (program) seems to not be present, or may have been uninstalled already...blah....that is OK, just answer "OK" to the "Do you want to remove this from the list?" question.

 

[Byteman]

I have had to add something to Post#6 below so re-check the end of it for new info....

Next: After you run the Part#2 of SmitFraud, AND have posted that log, and the new HJT log,

here are some further downloads and instructions for you. They ARE neccessary to clean up the system!

Download AVG Anti-Spyware from HERE and save that file to your desktop.

When the trial period expires it becomes feature-limited freeware but is still worth keeping as a good on-demand scanner.

1. Once you have downloaded AVG Anti-Spyware, locate the icon on the desktop and double click it to launch the set up program.
2. Once the setup is complete you will need run AVG Anti-Spyware and update the definition files.
3. On the main screen select the icon "Update" then select the "Update now" link.
   • Next select the "Start Update" button. The update will start and a progress bar will show the updates being installed.
4. Once the update has completed, select the "Scanner" icon at the top of the screen, then select the "Settings" tab.
   
5. Note: If you cannot access the internet with the infected PC, or you are having problems updating, you can download the signatures file from here.
   Once you have installed AVG A-S, double click avgas-signatures-full-current.exe to update it.
   
6. Once in the Settings screen click on "Recommended actions" and then select "Quarantine".
7. Under "Reports"
   • Select "Automatically generate report after every scan"
   • Un-Select "Only if threats were found"
   • Disabling the Resident Shield:
     
     By default the Resident Shield is active but as it may interfere with the process of cleaning your PC, it will need to be disabled.
     (When the PC has been cleaned you can activate the shield again, if you wish.)
     Click the Shield icon at the top and under "Resident shield is..." - click active.
     This should now change to inactive.
     

Close AVG Anti-Spyware. Do Not run a scan just yet, we will run it in safe mode.

1. Reboot your computer into Safe Mode. You can do this by restarting your computer and continually tapping the F8 key until a menu appears. Use your up arrow key to highlight Safe Mode then hit enter.
   
   IMPORTANT: Do not open any other windows or programs while AVG Anti-Spyware is scanning as it may interfere with the scanning process:
   
2. Launch AVG Anti-Spyware by double clicking the icon on your desktop.
3. Select the "Scanner" icon at the top and then the "Scan" tab then click on "Complete System Scan".
4. AVG will now begin the scanning process. Please be patient as this may take a little time.
   Once the scan is complete, do the following:
5. If you have any infections you will be prompted. Then select "Apply all actions."
6. Next select the "Reports" icon at the top.
7. Select the "Save report as" button in the lower lef- hand of the screen and save it to a text file on your system (make sure to remember where you saved that file. This is important).
8. Close AVG Anti-Spyware and reboot your system back into Normal Mode.

_ _ _ _
HERE to run Panda's ActiveScan

• Once you are on the Panda site click the Scan your PC button
• A new window will open...click the Check Now button
• Enter your Country
• Enter your State/Province
• Enter your e-mail address and click send
• Select either Home User or Company
• Click the big Scan Now button
• If it wants to install an ActiveX component allow it
• It will start downloading the files it requires for the scan (Note: It may take a couple of minutes)
• When download is complete, click on My Computer to start the scan
• When the scan completes, if anything malicious is detected, click the See Report button, then Save Report and save it to a convenient location. Post the contents of the ActiveScan report

Thanks, falling at the first hurdle though!!

Pressing F8 at start up bring me to a DOS type screen, about boot devices, no mention of Safe mode.

Tried pressing delete at startup also, but cannot find safe mode in there, I am misisng it?
thanks

 

[Byteman]

Hi, I was doing something, came back and saw what you posted about Safe Mode> usually, you can't get to the right screen if you don't press F8 quick enough or enough times....

[You may have a CD in the tray, take it out....and, it may be that your system has a special type of hard drive,

let it go a bit farther in bootup, then keep tapping the F8 key....just keep trying.

When you shut down, and restart again, it may work better for you so try it that way.

When you press the power button and computer starts to boot>

start tapping F8 key and don't stop until you see the Startup list menu

with several options, one is Safe Mode, move to that using the up or down arrow and then press Enter once.

Press Enter>>> to start in "Windows XP Home (Pro) Edition"

When in Safe Mode, it says those words, in all 4 corners of a black screen.....

You should then be at the desktop, Press OK at the Safe Mode message and continue with Part#2 of SmitFraud Fix etc.

You COULD download AVG Antispyware and set that up also, I added that just now....

So then you would have it installed and updated, and available when and if you can boot to Safe Mode, since it also is going to be used in Safe Mode.

 

[BakerBoy]

Done as instructed - SmitfFaud, Hijackthis log, then AVG log, finally Panda Activescan report - cheers

Hi, :up: Clean Hijackthis log. Remember, AVG Antispyware is a trial version, it will still be useful to you as is but will not update past a certain date, unless purchased.

If I were you I'd install Ad-Aware SE and SpyBot Search and Destroy...both free, one is a protection and removal app and one is just removal, both are great to have.

http://www.spybot.info/en/tutorial/index.html

The directions ARE included! That one page has all the links for download etc.

http://www.castlecops.com/modules.php?name=News&file=article&thold=-1&mode=flat&order=0&sid=5703

The above page has it all for both programs, and one additional called SpywareBlaster= I use all 3 here on ALL computers. I don't use any fancy Internet Security Suites at all, just free tools. I am not the most well behaved person on the Net either, I test these tools a lot, and nothing gets into the system with them running, but I am very careful with Instant Message links, emails, and what I download.

Did you do this, I am just making sure...

ALSO: If these appear in Add/Remove Programs,
Internet Explorer Security Plugin 2006
Internet Security Add-On

uninstall them, they may not be there that is OK, but look.
You may get the message "The (program) seems to not be present, or may have been uninstalled already...blah....that is OK, just answer "OK" to the "Do you want to remove this from the list?" question.

if you did, no need to redo that bit.

I think you need a good Temp file and Cookie cleaning, Killbox can do that for you!

Double-click killbox.exe

Click Tools > Delete Temp Files.

Click the drop down menu in the middle and select C:\Documents and Settings\Your User Account from the list.

Now check/tick the boxes beside the following options above the drop down menu:

• Temporary Internet Files
• Temp Files
• Cookies
• XP Prefetch
• Recent
• History

Then click the Delete Selected Temp Files button.

Your last step would be to clean out the System Restore Points, as if you used one now, it would put back all the malware you worked hard to get rid of:

Turn off System Restore:

On the Desktop, right-click My Computer.
Click Properties.
Click the System Restore tab.
Check Turn off System Restore.
Click Apply, and then click OK.Wait for hourglass to stop and it says
"Turned Off"

Restart your computer, turn System Restore back on and create a restore point.

To create a restore point:

Single-click Start and point to All Programs.
Mouse over Accessories, then System Tools, and select System Restore.
In the System Restore wizard, select the box next the text labeled "Create a restore point" and click the Next button.
Type a description for your new restore point. Something like "After trojan/spyware cleanup". Click Create and you're done.
