Hello and welcome to the forum. If you still need help, let's start like this.

1) Open ewido and update the program, allow time for it to finish. Choose scanner then complete system scan. Allow ewido to delete anything it locates unless you are sure it is not bad, save the scan report I must see it.

2) Open HijackThis and choose "Do a system scan only" then check the box in front of these line items:

O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [winsysupd] C:\windows\winsysupd9.exe
O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [winsysban] C:\windows\winsysban9.exe
O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [Win32.Exploit.A] C:\WINDOWS\system32\exa32.exe
O4 - HKCU\..\Run: [services32] C:\Program Files\Common Files\Windows\mc-110-12-0000228.exe
O16 - DPF: {D7BF3304-138B-4DD5-86EE-491BB6A2286C} - http://www.azebar.com/install/azesearch.cab

Close all programs but HJT and all browser windows, then click on "Fix Checked"

3) Enable hidden files&folders..reverse the process when finished.
http://www.xtra.co.nz/help/0,,4155-1916458,00.html

RIGHT Click on Start then click on Explore. Locate and delete these items:

C:\windows\winsysban9.exe >>> file

C:\windows\winsysupd9.exe >>> file

C:\WINDOWS\system32\exa32.exe >>> file

C:\Program Files\Common Files\Windows\mc-110-12-0000228.exe >>> file


C:\Windows\Prefetch\ >>> delete the contents (NOT THE FOLDER)
Prefetch info: http://www.windowsnetworking.com/articles_tutorials/Gaining-Speed-Empty-Prefetch-XP.html

4) f you don't have a good cleaner, use this one with these instuctions:
Download CCleaner from this link: http://www.ccleaner.com/ Review the instructions http://www.ccleaner.com/help/tour1.asp
Run CCleaner, Windows & Applications when you run the registry cleaner (Issues) you will be prompted to backup before you can remove stuff, make sure you do.

Restart the computer and post the ewido scan results, a new HJT log and any feedback you think I should have. Let me know how you are running now.

Thanks...pskelley

Hi Soren, This was in my last instructions to you:

Restart the computer and post the ewido scan results, a new HJT log and any feedback you think I should have. Let me know how you are running now.You had a fairly nasty infection, I can not quarantee that you are clean of it without viewing the information I requested.

I'll ask tashi to close this topic unless I here from you in 24 hours.

Thanks
