Computer Will Not Boot...

[teddings]

.....or reboots automatically. I have tried a few things....CCleaner, Spybot, and Lavasoft Ad-Aware. Everytime I think I got it to finally boot, it reboots itself! I was told to try Spy Sweeper and Registry Mechanic...but I'm not even sure how to get those on the computer when it is in Safe Mode. I do keep noticing Smitfraud-C when I run Spybot and it can't clean it. What should I try? I'm not even sure how to get the log tracker on the machine. I'd like to fix it just to show up the guy at Queek Squad that just laughed at my Toshiba Tecra Laptop and pointed me to a $1700 computer.:mad:

Any guidance or help would be appriciated...I have read through some threads and it seems like I need to post a log.

Thanks

Hello,

"BEFORE you POST" Mandatory Steps Before Requesting Assistance (http://forums.spybot.info/showthread.php?t=288)

If you are able to:

Run the on-line anti virus scan.
Run HJT from it's own folder, post HJT log and result of AV scan here.


Note:
If you have difficulty in downloading HJT to the problem machine, you can download to a clean PC if one is available.

Burn to disc or load on floppy
Upload to the affected machine
Place HJT into own folder
Run HJT on the infected PC and post the log you produce using the clean PC.

Then a helper will advise you as soon as available. If you cannot do any of the above let us know.

Regards.

Here is where I am at...still can't boot normally after:

1. I ran SmitfraudFix
2. Ran SpyBot (this time I didn't get the error saying it couldn't delete the winsys2f.dll file)
3. Ran Online Panda Scan (Safe Mode w/ Networking)
4. Ran HJT (Safe Mode w/ Networking)
5. .....here is my Panda Scan log and HJT log:

Welcome to the forum, I am going to be candid with you, beside this worm:
http://virusinfo.prevx.com/viruscenter.asp?GRP=4748300015 you also have a multiple Vundo infection and a load of other junk, and I am sure you know why.

tashi posted this information for you to view:
"BEFORE you POST" Mandatory Steps Before Requesting Assistance
http://forums.spybot.info/showthread.php?t=288

I will post the information so you can view it:
Update Your Windows XP. You are currently using an unpatched version of Windows XP.
Before attempting to remove malware, it is CRITICAL that you update to Service Pack 1a.
Get SP1a here : http://www.microsoft.com/windowsxp/downloads/updates/sp1/default.mspx
You should also get SP2, but NOT NOW, rather only after your machine is clean.
After updating your Windows to SP1a, post a new HijackThis log please, using the Post Reply button.

and I might as well post this information for you also:One or more of the identified infections is a backdoor trojan.
This allows hackers to remotely control your computer, steal critical system information and Download and Execute files
I would counsel you to disconnect this PC from the Internet immediately. If you do any banking or other financial transactions on the PC or if it should contain any other sensitive information, please get to a known clean computer and change all passwords where applicable, and it would be wise to contact those same financial institutions to apprise them of your situation.
Though the Trojan has been identified and can be killed, because of it's backdoor functionality, your PC is very likely compromised and there is no way to be sure your computer can ever again be trusted. Many experts in the security community believe that once infected with this type of Trojan, the best course of action would be a reformat and reinstall of the OS. Please read these for more information:

Welcome to the forum, I am going to be candid with you...

pskelley...Thanks for being candid....I see a new Toshiba Satellite in my future. I don't think that it is worth messing with at this point. I can access my files and get them off of the computer in Safe Mode.

Sorry about the "Mandatory Steps" deal....I did read the post and tried to follow it....but I have Windows 2000 not XP...so my bad. I really thought that a disk from Kinko's caused this...all this happened as soon as I inserted the disk that they burned for me and launched some pictures. Do you think it was the P2P crap??

Anyway, the one good thing to happen from this was that I found this forum and some great information/advice. :bigthumb: Thanks

[pskelley]

I apologize for thinking you were running XP, It does appear that there have been no updates installed for your browser?

Hard to say where this junk comes from, but p2p file sharing is a very good guess, Vundo has been the results of bad script normally, here is some information:

Well I just bought the Toshiba Satellite A135-S4467 :crowned: . I am so worried now about security issues that I am curious what essential tools to guard my computer I should install. I think I might be too paranoid...I was thinking:

1. Spy Sweeper w/ Anti Virus (already purchased)
2. Spybot S&D (of course)
3. Ad-Aware
4. CCleaner

Do I have a hole somewhere in this plan...Spyblaster perhaps? Any help would be welcomed.

Thanks

Congratulations on your new computer. Let me say that the information you need to stay safe is available online if you search for it, but I must caution you that there is no silver bullet. I am going to post some links that will help, and I strongly suggest you save the links from experts I posted, those folks are very knowledgeable. The one point I must make is that no amount of software will replace good common sense. If you use a good layered protection, update your security programs as you should and develope good sound online surfing habits, that will go a long way towards keeping you safe online.
After you review those links, and the ones I am about to post, you have questions, post them and I will do my best to give you answers.
