Whenever I open IE, a pop up appears. I've run spybot and adaware, but they don't get rid of the problem. I get the feeling this is similar to another problem I had, but just in case here is my hijackthis log:

First please do this:

Navigate to the C:\WINNT\system32 folder and locate the innlsw.exe file. Right click it and choose "Send to compressed (zipped) folder". The zipped folder will appear there in the System32 folder. Attach a copy of that zipped folder and send it to me here. Please include a link to this thread so I'll remember where it came from.

The file may be hidden so click on My Computer then click Tools > Folder Options. In Folder options click on the View tab. Under Files and Folders tick "Show hidden files and folders" then uncheck "Hide file extensions for known file types" and uncheck "Hide protected operating system files (recommended)". Now click "Like current folder" then "Apply" and "OK"

Now run Hijack This again and put a check by these. Close all windows except HijackThis and click "Fix checked"

O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [innlsw] C:\WINNT\system32\innlsw.exe

Restart to safe mode and delete:

For some reason, I can't find this file anywhere. I made all the hidden files visible, but there doesn't seem to be any file under that name. Searching for it gets no results as well. I highly doubt that anyone in my house would have done anything to change this in the few hours that I was not on. After running Hijack This again it came up with this:

Looking back and forth between my first Hijack This log and this one, C:\WINNT\system32\roupPolicyG.exe looks kind of suspicious now. Any ideas?

BTW, flrman1, I was wondering why you want a copy of that specific file. I don't mind sending it, but I'd like to know what purpose it would serve and what it does. Searching for innlsw.exe on google and yahoo got me no results, so I have no idea what it does. The same goes for roupPolicyG.exe

The purpose of sending the file is so we can analyze it to see exactly what it is and send it to all the relevant anti-spyware/trojan/virus developers for future detection and removal.

It looks like it is morphing. My guess is that this new entry:

O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [roupPolicyG] C:\WINNT\system32\roupPolicyG.exe

Is the same as:

O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [innlsw] C:\WINNT\system32\innlsw.exe

It has morphed into a different file. We are seeing more and more of this type malware lately.

Let's try this again, but this time do everything in safe mode.

Boot to safe mode first then try to locate the C:\WINNT\system32\roupPolicyG.exe file and put it in a zipped folder and send it to me as requested previously.

After you have copied the file to the zip folder go ahead and delete the original from C:\WINNT\system32.

Now fix this entry while still in safe mode:

O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [innlsw] C:\WINNT\system32\innlsw.exe

Boot back to normal and post a fresh log.

Apparently, the file morphed again. This time, into IN32KW.exe.

I will post again in a while in order to confirm whether or not this was successful.

Flrman1, I tried sending the zip file through hotmail, but it won't allow me. I get a message saying that it's a virus and can't be attached. Any other way I could send the files to you?

That's OK kust go ahead and delete the zip file too.

What virus did it say it was?

I'm assuming from the looks of your log you were able to delete the new file this time.

Hotmail doesn't specify which virus. I get this message: "Hotmail has detected a virus on the file you are trying to attach to your message. Virus infected files cannot be attached to a message..." and some stuff about signing up for something.

The pop ups seem to be gone. Thank you for all your help.
