hi austinthedork,

i would use this computer as little as possible until its cleaned up, if you have a modem unplug it when not in use.

we need to get 3 downloads, links below. we will use two of them in safe mode

i would get them all at once, after downloading to your desktop, launch AVG first to install as it will have to be updated which you can do during the install process. after it updates unplug modem. dont scan just yet with AVG until in safe mode

3 downloads
smitFraud fix
http://siri.urz.free.fr/Fix/SmitfraudFix.exe

AVG antispyware
http://www.ewido.net/en/download/

you can configure AVg like this:
1. Once you have downloaded ewido 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 ewido 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. Once in the Settings screen click on "Recommended actions" and then
select "Quarantine".
6. Under "Reports"
* Select "Automatically generate report after every scan"
* Un-Select "Only if threats were found"
Close AVG Anti-Spyware,


SDFix
http://downloads.andymanchesta.com/RemovalTools/SDFix.exe
-------------------------------------------------


run SDFix first:

Double click SDFix.exe and it will extract the files to %systemdrive%
(Drive that contains the Windows Directory, typically C:\SDFix)

Please then reboot your computer in Safe Mode by doing the following :
Restart your computer
After hearing your computer beep once during startup, but before the Windows icon appears, tap the F8 key continually;
Instead of Windows loading as normal, the Advanced Options Menu should appear;
Select the first option, to run Windows in Safe Mode, then press Enter.
Choose your usual account.


Open the extracted SDFix folder and double click RunThis.bat to start the script.
Type Y to begin the cleanup process.
It will remove any Trojan Services and Registry Entries that it finds then prompt you to press any key to Reboot.
Press any Key and it will restart the PC.
When the PC restarts the Fixtool will run again and complete the removal process then display Finished, press any key to end the script and load your desktop icons.
Once the desktop icons load the SDFix report will open on screen and also save into the SDFix folder as Report.txt
(Report.txt will also be copied to Clipboard ready for posting back on the forum).
Finally paste the contents of the Report.txt back on the forum with a new HijackThis log

-------------------------------------------------

i would copy/paste the rest of this into notepad and save it so you can find and read it in safe mode:

boot to safe mode:
Restart your computer
After hearing your computer beep once during startup, but before the Windows icon appears, tap the F8 key continually;
Instead of Windows loading as normal, the Advanced Options Menu should appear;
Select the first option, to run Windows in Safe Mode, then press Enter.
Choose your usual account.
[/list][list]

next run smitfraudfix:
Open the SmitfraudFix folder on your desktop and double-click smitfraudfix.cmd

* Select option #1 - Search by typing 1 and press Enter
* This program will scan large amounts of files on your computer for known patterns so please be patient while it works. When it is done, the results of the scan will be displayed and it will create a log named rapport.txt in the root of your drive, eg: Local Disk C: or partition where your operating system is installed.

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.

# Select option #2 - Clean by typing 2 and press Enter.
# Wait for the tool to complete and disk cleanup to finish.
# You will be prompted : "Registry cleaning - Do you want to clean the registry ?" answer Yes by typing Y and hit Enter.
# The tool will also check if wininet.dll is infected. If a clean version is found, you will be prompted to replace wininet.dll. Answer Yes to the question "Replace infected file ?" by typing Y and hit Enter.
# A reboot may be needed to finish the cleaning process. If your computer does not restart automatically please do it yourself manually, and reboot back into Safe Mode
-----------------------------
last run AVG antispyware
# Lauch AVG Anti-Spyware by double-clicking the icon on your desktop.
# Select the "Scanner" icon at the top and then the "Scan" tab
then click on "Complete System Scan".
# ewido will now begin the scanning process, be patient this may take a little
time.
Once the scan is complete do the following:
# If you have any infections you will prompted, then select "Apply all
actions"
# Next select the "Reports" icon at the top.
# Select the "Save report as" button in the lower left hand of the
screen and save it to a text file on your computer somewhere so you can find it.
please post the saved report in next reply
----------------------------------
reboot computer normally, first stop:
http://www.pandasoftware.com/products/activescan.htm

* 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 (use a fake e-mail)
* 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
-------------------------
