Hey. I have this malware named Isearchtech.ysb that I cannot get rid of. I have read forums to try to get rid of it, but so far nothing has helped. Every time I run Spybot S&D, it says that I have to restart the computer and run it again, but that doesn't work either. Here is my Hijackthis log...

Thank you for helping me get rid of the Winfixer virus! What's next? Oh, and sorry it has been a couple days. Got real busy for a lil bit. Thanks!
hi
log looks clean
you didnt happen to save that ewido report ?
spybot still sees one registry item it cannot remove, no biggie
good thing its just a registry entry, do you have adaware installed ? maybe a scan with it could remove it..
Now that you are clean, please follow these simple steps in order to keep your computer clean and secure:
Disable and Enable System Restore. - If you are using Windows ME or XP then you should disable and re-enable system restore to make sure there are no infected files found in a restore point.
You can find instructions on how to enable and reenable system restore here:
Managing Windows Millenium System Restore (http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/forums/tutorial63.html)
or
Windows XP System Restore Guide (http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/forums/tutorial56.html)
Reenable system restore with instructions from tutorial above
Make your Internet Explorer more secure - This can be done by following these simple instructions:
From within Internet Explorer click on the Tools menu and then click on Options.
Click once on the Security tab
Click once on the Internet icon so it becomes highlighted.
Click once on the Custom Level button.
Change the Download signed ActiveX controls to Prompt
Change the Download unsigned ActiveX controls to Disable
Change the Initialize and script ActiveX controls not marked as safe to Disable
Change the Installation of desktop items to Prompt
Change the Launching programs and files in an IFRAME to Prompt
Change the Navigate sub-frames across different domains to Prompt
When all these settings have been made, click on the OK button.
If it prompts you as to whether or not you want to save the settings, press the Yes button.
Next press the Apply button and then the OK to exit the Internet Properties page.
Use an AntiVirus Software - It is very important that your computer has an anti-virus software running on your machine. This alone can save you a lot of trouble with malware in the future.
See this link for a listing of some online & their stand-alone antivirus programs:
Virus, Spyware, and Malware Protection and Removal Resources (http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/forums/topict405.html)
Update your AntiVirus Software - It is imperitive that you update your Antivirus software at least once a week (Even more if you wish). If you do not update your antivirus software then it will not be able to catch any of the new variants that may come out.
Use a Firewall - I can not stress how important it is that you use a Firewall on your computer. Without a firewall your computer is succeptible to being hacked and taken over. I am very serious about this and see it happen almost every day with my clients. Simply using a Firewall in its default configuration can lower your risk greatly.
For a tutorial on Firewalls and a listing of some available ones see the link below:
Understanding and Using Firewalls (http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/forums/tutorial60.html)
Visit Microsoft's Windows Update Site Frequently - It is important that you visit http://www.windowsupdate.com (http://www.windowsupdate.com) regularly. This will ensure your computer has always the latest security updates available installed on your computer. If there are new updates to install, install them immediately, reboot your computer, and revisit the site until there are no more critical updates.
Install Spybot - Search and Destroy - Install and download Spybot - Search and Destroy with its TeaTimer option. This will provide realtime spyware & hijacker protection on your computer alongside your virus protection. You should also scan your computer with program on a regular basis just as you would an antivirus software.
A tutorial on installing & using this product can be found here:
Using Spybot - Search & Destroy to remove Spyware , Malware, and Hijackers (http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/forums/tutorial43.html)
Install Ad-Aware - Install and download Ad-Aware. ou should also scan your computer with program on a regular basis just as you would an antivirus software in conjunction with Spybot.
A tutorial on installing & using this product can be found here:
Using Ad-aware to remove Spyware, Malware, & Hijackers from Your Computer (http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/forums/tutorial48.html)
Install SpywareBlaster - SpywareBlaster will added a large list of programs and sites into your Internet Explorer settings that will protect you from running and downloading known malicious programs.
A tutorial on installing & using this product can be found here:
Using SpywareBlaster to protect your computer from Spyware and Malware (http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/forums/tutorial49.html)
Update all these programs regularly - Make sure you update all the programs I have listed regularly. Without regular updates you WILL NOT be protected when new malicious programs are released.
Follow this list and your potential for being infected again will reduce dramatically.
here are some additional utilities that will enhance your safety
IE/Spyad (https://netfiles.uiuc.edu/ehowes/www/resource.htm) <= IE/Spyad places over 4000 websites and domains in the IE Restricted list which will severely impair attempts to infect your system. It basically prevents any downloads (Cookies etc) from the sites listed, although you will still be able to connect to the sites.
MVPS Hosts file (http://mvps.org/winhelp2002/hosts.htm) <= The MVPS Hosts file replaces your current HOSTS file with one containing well know ad sites etc. Basically, this prevents your coputer from connecting to those sites by redirecting them to 127.0.0.1 which is your local computer
Google Toolbar (http://toolbar.google.com/) <= Get the free google toolbar to help stop pop up windows.
Winpatrol (http://www.winpatrol.com/) <= Download and install the free version of Winpatrol. a tutorial for this product is located here:
Using Winpatrol to protect your computer from malicious software (http://www.winpatrol.com/features.html)

hi
i'd like you to try this program
http://www.microsoft.com/athome/security/spyware/software/default.mspx
download,
install, update and scan
let me know if its succesful :)

I have downloaded that program before, and I deleted it. The first time I ran it (a few weeks ago), it got rid of about 10 programs or so. I did install it and run the scan again, but now, every time I scan, it removes the same program- YourSiteBar. And everything else is clean. I ran the program twice in a row, after trying to delete YourSiteBar, and it showed up again, so I don't think it's effective. Anyway, thanks for your suggestions! Do you have any more?
hi
hmm thats odd, it has seccefully deleted that in the past..
lets do an online virus scan to make sure there are no files that prevent its removal
Please do an online scan with Kaspersky WebScanner (http://www.kaspersky.com/virusscanner)
Click on Kaspersky Online Scanner
You will be promted to install an ActiveX component from Kaspersky, Click Yes.
The program will launch and then begin downloading the latest definition files:
Once the files have been downloaded click on NEXT
Now click on Scan Settings
In the scan settings make that the following are selected:
Scan using the following Anti-Virus database:
Extended (if available otherwise Standard)
Scan Options:
Scan Archives
Scan Mail Bases
Click OK
Now under select a target to scan:Select My Computer
The program will start and scan your system.
The scan will take a while so be patient and let it run.
Once the scan is complete it will display if your system has been infected.
Now click on the Save as Text button:
Save the file to your desktop.
Copy and paste that information in your next post.

Hey. I would copy and paste the scan results, but it says it is too large, so I am attaching it in 2 different files (the file is too large also).
Here they are :)
hi
these files must be deleted ( in safe mode):
C:\WINDOWS\5050.exe
C:\WINDOWS\elt888.exe
C:\WINDOWS\is742.exe/EXE-file
C:\WINDOWS\is742.exe
C:\WINDOWS\mc-110-12-0000179.exe
C:\WINDOWS\mmx888.exe
C:\WINDOWS\system32\ddcyx.dll
C:\WINDOWS\system32\whCC-CLICK.exe/data.rar/whAgent.exe
C:\wow.exe/
C:\kc.exe
after deleting them reboot and post a new hijackthis log
tell me if the problem still persists

I deleted most of what you told me to delete in Safe Mode. The only things I did not see were these:
C:\WINDOWS\is742.exe/EXE-file
C:\WINDOWS\mc-110-12-0000179.exe
C:\WINDOWS\mmx888.exe
Now, I searched for all of these and the following program came up on every one: "shit"
I didn't delete it because I wanted your input first. should i delete that program?
Also, I ran Microsoft AntiSpyware twice again, and YourSiteBar showed up again even after deleting it once.
Thanks again!
hi
lets try another online scanner
Panda ActiveScan (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
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 the 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 Panda scan report, along with a new HijackThis Log

hi
sorry for my absence.
i have been consulting some experts on this matter ( thx to Mosaic1 for great suggestions :) )
lets dig a little deeper, shall we :scratch:
for starters:
Please download VundoFix.exe (http://www.atribune.org/ccount/click.php?id=4) to your desktop.
Double-click VundoFix.exe to run it.
Put a check next to Run VundoFix as a task.
You will receive a message saying vundofix will close and re-open in a minute or less. Click OK
When VundoFix re-opens, click the Scan for Vundo button.
Once it's done scanning, click the Remove Vundo button.
You will receive a prompt asking if you want to remove the files, click YES
Once you click yes, your desktop will go blank as it starts removing Vundo.
When completed, it will prompt that it will shutdown your computer, click OK.
Turn your computer back on.
Please post the contents of C:\vundofix.txt and a new HiJackThis log.
next :
Download and Save Blacklight (http://www.f-secure.com/blacklight/try.shtml) to your desktop:
Double-click blbeta.exe then accept the agreement, leave [X]scan through Windows Explorer checked, click > scan then > next
You'll see a list of all items found. There will also be a log on your desktop with the name fsbl.xxxxxxx.log (the xxxxxxx stand for numbers).
Copy and paste this log in your next reply. Don't choose the rename option yet! I want to see the log first, because legitimate items can also be present there, such as "wbemtest.exe"
so what i need is
the vundofix.txt
the blacklight log
a fresh hijackthis log
thank you for your patience
mynameismike, are you still here?
Hmmmmm.
