I don't know what should and shouldn't be there. I'm reasonably sure I've been hacked. Please help ASAP. Thanx

hi stroudmnl,


I thought I had the windows malicious spyware software

the only antimalware software i see you have comes with:

Advanced WindowsCare v2 Personal.
there website dosnt have alot to say about it other than "Removing Spyware and Adware"

i think you should get and scan with a second one, having using two wont hurt. your hjt log looks ok. why do you think youve been hacked?

SuperAntiSpyware (http://www.superantispyware.com/)
CounterSpy (http://www.sunbelt-software.com/)
Spybot Search and destroy (http://www.safer-networking.org/en/index.html)
Ad-Aware SE Personal edition (http://www.lavasoft.de/)
Microsoft Windows Defender (http://www.microsoft.com/athome/security/spyware/software/default.mspx)

hi stroudmnl

i dont see much in the hjt log, but thats not conclusive evidence.
i would give avg antispyware a try, it has a free version.
download, install, update, scan and when its done save the log file to your desktop then post that log in next reply. you can edit out the cookies if theres alot of them

hi stroudmnl,

ok, glad to help. for your reference: happy surfing

Be careful of what you download, and where you download it from. Many programs come bundled with extra software.You may be installing more than you think. Learn more about the program, Does it come bundled with other "3rd party" programs? If you search hard enough you can always find a "clean" alternative to any software DO YOU TRUST THE SOURCE? Check this database:Spyware Guide (http://www.spywareguide.com/) or this: Library (http://research.sunbelt-software.com/Browse_Library.cfm)before installing free/shareware.

Make sure you keep your Windows OS/Browser current by visiting Windows update (http://v4.windowsupdate.microsoft.com/en/default.asp)
occasionaly to download and install any critical updates and service packs. These patch flaws/bugs that can be exploited.

Adjust your browser settings: Change your(active x) settings in IE. With IE open go to tools, internet options, security tab. Click on the internet globe, then custom level. Set the first option "download signed active x controls" to prompt, the next two to disable. Read more:
Working with Internet Explorer 6 Security (http://www.microsoft.com/windows/ie/using/howto/security/settings.mspx)Use XP with SP2, consider using the new IE 7.0
Many exploits are directed at Internet Explorer, you dont have to use it. Try a different browser. You can have and use more than one browser on your computer.
Like Firefox (http://www.mozilla.org/products/firefox/),


Install a Firewall:A firewall will help to control what comes in from the internet and what leaves your computer to the internet. Zone Alarm is a free and easy to use firewall, that will provide in and outbound protection. Xp's built in firewall isnt as robust as third part firewalls. Zone Alarm is one of the easiest to use "out of the box" others have learning curves.
Zone Alarm (http://www.zonelabs.com/store/content/catalog/products/sku_list_za.jsp?dc=12bms&ctry=US&lang=en&lid=dbtopnav_zass)
OutPost Lite (http://www.agnitum.com/products/outpostfree/download.php)
Jetico Personal Firewall (http://www.jetico.com/index.htm#/jpfirewall.htm)
Look n Stop (http://www.looknstop.com/En/index2.htm)

Outlook Express with the default settings is not secure. It will run scripts, download images etc, just like a browser, but this was the old Outlook Express. Service Pack 2 has made huge improvements to Outlook, but just like with Internet Explorer, you dont have to use it.
try Pegasus E-Mail. (http://www.pmail.com/)

Make sure you have and keep updated Antivirus software
Free for home users:
avast! 4 Home Edition Download (http://www.avast.com/eng/free_virus_protectio.html)
AVG free version 7.0 (http://free.grisoft.com/freeweb.php/doc/2/)
AntiVir Personal Edition (http://www.free-av.com/)
Clam Win (http://www.Clamwin.com/component/option,com_frontpage/Itemid,1/)

Download one or two of these, install and update before using:(if these are constantly finding malware, then you need to make changes to your browser and or your habits)
SuperAntiSpyware (http://www.superantispyware.com/)
CounterSpy (http://www.sunbelt-software.com/)
Spybot Search and destroy (http://www.safer-networking.org/en/index.html)
Ad-Aware SE Personal edition (http://www.lavasoft.de/)
Microsoft Windows Defender (http://www.microsoft.com/athome/security/spyware/software/default.mspx)
Becarful with spyware "removers and scanners"-- there are many "rogue/suspect" (http://www.spywarewarrior.com/rogue_anti-spyware.htm) programs that "claim to remove" spyware.Check here first.


AntiTrojan software to fill in the gap:
a2 free (http://www.emsisoft.com/en/software/free/)
Avg Anti-Spyware Free (http://free.grisoft.com/doc/avg-anti-spyware-free/lng/us/tpl/v5)
Trojan Hunter (http://www.misec.net/)
Tauscan trial version (http://www.agnitum.com/products/tauscan/)

Other programs to consider:
Process Guard (http://www.diamondcs.com.au/processguard/) stop events/processes with user intervention
SpywareBlaster (http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/forums/index.php?showtutorial=49) add security to IE
IE-SPYAD (https://netfiles.uiuc.edu/ehowes/www/resource.htm#IESPYAD) adds adware peddlers sites/domains to IE restricted zone
ATF cleaner (W2K,XP only) (http://www.atribune.org/content/view/25/2/) cleans out temp files,history, cookies etc.
