• Welcome Guest, to the Spybot Forums! It's 2025, and we just upgraded our forum software.

    Today is Safer Internet Day, and with our new forum, you can finally use passkeys to login. That was about time!

    Of course, you could ask if a forum is still useful, with so many social media networks out there where you might already have an account, and met a lot of users. You can now use your login from some of those networks to log in here. And by posting here, your question and data is stored on our servers and not automatically shared with a whole social media network.

    We'll also start using the forum for small bits of information, announcements and more again.

Hi !

First excuse me for my poor english...

Each time that i run Spybot, i have the "Fake.Wget" (2 entries) problem even if i fixed them many times !!!

How can i remove them definitively ???

I was infected lately by multiple trojans and spywares... !!!

I attached the log of hijackthis and the report of spybot.

Thank you very much for helping me.
 
Windows Security Center entries

I forget to tell you that i didn't fix the 3 entries of WindowsSecurityCenter because they are not a spyware i think ??? It's true ???
 
Hi castillofr, Sorry for the delay

The WindowsSecurityCenter will show if you have changed it to other that default .

Could i see a SpyBot report after checking for problems, i can then see what its finding.

Open SpyBot 1.4, check for and get any updates available, close all browsers, check for problems and fix everything found. Then on the toolbar menu select mode and switch to advanced mode, on the left lower down select tools,and view report, ensure all the options are select near the bottom except
Uncheck[ ] do not report disabled or known legitimate Items,
uncheck[ ] Include a list of services in report.
Uncheck[ ] Include uninstall list in report.
Now select (near the top) view report, Press export, in the save in box choose a place such as your my documents folder, then in your next post near the bottom select the "manage attachments" button , navigate to and attach or post that report please.

Hi !

Yes, I have 3 accounts in my PC. All of them have administrative rights.

I have created these accounts only for users preferences not for to restrict access to anyone who uses the PC.

Thanks.
 
Lets see if a simple reg import will remove it

Launch Notepad (not wordpad), and copy and paste the contents of the code box below into a new text file.
Save it as file name: "fixme.reg" (not including the quotes). Save as file type: All files (*.*) and save it on your Desktop.
Code:
REGEDIT4

[-HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Active Setup\Installed Components\{9B71D88C-C598-4935-C5D1-43AA4DB90836}]
[-HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Wget]
[-HKEY_USERS\S-1-5-21-583907252-764733703-682003330-1003\Software\Wget]
Now double-click on the fixme.reg file you saved and click on the Yes button when it asks if you would like to merge the information. Once you get a successful message delete fixme.reg.

Restart your PC.

Great

Im Glad we could help
Since the problems are solved Im going to close the topic now, this keeps others with similar problems from posting there logs/question here, they should start a new topic.
If you should need to post another log for the same PC let Me or Tashi know.
