Hello hopeless

Welcome to Safer Networking.

Please read Before YouPost (http://forums.spybot.info/showthread.php?t=288)
That said, All advice given by anyone volunteering here, is taken at own risk.
While best efforts are made to assist in removing infections safely, unexpected stuff can happen.


Create a folder in C:\Program Files and name it Hijackthis, then cut HJT where you currently have it on your desktop and paste it into the new folder so that we won't lose any backups if needed.

Open HijackThis > Do a System Scan Only, close your browser and all open windows including this one, the only program or window you should have open is HijackThis, check the following entries and click on Fix Checked.

Don't know what you have done when you said you tried to fix it yourself but the rest of your log is fine.

What issues have you had and are you still having them??

Post a new HJT log please with it in the new folder

Hi Ken,
Thanks so much for responding. I tried running spybot before and my anti virus scanner to help. Spybot caught virtumonde and some other things. When I attempt to run some applications they say fatal error and bad installation. And on the window it looks like the little symbol for Java. I did do an update for java after this started happening but still getting the errors.

Here is the updated log and thanks a million for helping me out.

Ken,
Forget to tell you also that periodically windows explorer crashes and computer my automatic updates keeps shutting itself off as well.
Hope this helps.

Thanks

[ken545]

Your still running HJT from the desktop, it needs to be in its own folder , please follow my previous instructions to move it there.

Then right click on hijackthis.exe...looks like a man with a spyglass and rename it to Scanner.exe and post a new log.

Ken,
Ok got it put into the right place. I had made a shortcut instead of moving the entire thing :red:. I had to force reboot the computer because it was running really slow and it wouldnt let me close out some programs even using the task manager. When I rebooted I got the following error after it started up:
DLL C:\Windows\System32\Sti.dll is not a valid windows image. Please check this against your installation diskette. Hope that helps some. Here is the new log.

Thanks a million for helping.

Hi,

The reason for renaming HJT is that there are certain infections that are written to go undetected by HJT and by renaming HJT to anything else those infections will show up on your log....and they did :red:

Make sure you get all of these. Remove them with HJT

Ken,
Ok did the hjt again and removed the files you said. Also downloaded the malwarebyes and did as you said. When I went to scan I got an error saying Run-time error '6': Overflow.
Also ran hjt again after I cleaned it and some of the files you asked me to remove are still showing up.

Hi,

Like I said before , I don't know what you did to fix this before you posted, that error your getting could be caused by a hardware, software or a virus issue, when where done and your log is clean , if your still getting it I will link you to some windows support sites that deal with issues like that.

You still have 3 entries on your log that need to go, Ad Watch in ADAWARE may be preventing there removal.

You need to Disable AdWatch in Ad-Aware Se Personal as it can stop our fix.

To Disable AdWatch

Open Ad-Aware SE Personal
Go to the AdWatch User Interface.
Go to Tools and Preferences.
At the bottom of the screen you will see 2 options
Active: This will turn Ad-Watch On\Off without closing it.
Automatic: Suspicious activity will be blocked automatically
Uncheck both options.
You should enable these after resolving your problem.


Then remove these with HJT.

Download ComboFix from Here (http://www.techsupportforum.com/sectools/sUBs/ComboFix.exe) or Here (http://download.bleepingcomputer.com/sUBs/ComboFix.exe) to your Desktop.

Double click combofix.exe and follow the prompts.
When finished, it shall produce a log for you. Post the Combofix log and a HiJackthis log in your next reply

Note: Do not mouseclick combofix's window while its running. That may cause it to stall

[hopeless]

Ken,
I have Ad-Aware SE Professional and cannot find anywhere in any of the options where I can uncheck the options you have said. Should I just maybe close the process in the task manager or just un-install it for now and re-install later?

Thanks so much for your help too btw.

[ken545]

You may be able to right click on it in the system tray ( by the clock ) and disable or shut it down, do the same thing for Symantec AV and then fix those entries and run Combofix

[hopeless]

Ken,
Below are both logs.

Looking good :bigthumb:

How are things running now??

[hopeless]

Ken,
after the reboot from the last update when I reboot as everything is coming up I'm getting the following errors.
Adobe Gamma Loader.exe bad image
The application or DLL C:\WINDOWS/system32\sti.dll is not a valid imate
Please check your install diskette
*********************************************************
AIM.exe - Bad image
The application or DLL C:\PROGRA~1\AIM\rtvideo.dll is not a working image
please check your install diskette.

Most programs are running really slow. Almost all just after loading have a fatal crash and most close. On the little box at top when that message comes up is the little JAVA symbol. Like a run time error.

Hello,

Not sure why your getting those errors as Combofix did not find and remove anything .

Sti.dll is a valid system file and you may have removed it before you posted here. You can try this

Depending on how your manufacturer set up your system, you may or may not need the Windows XP CD. If you have a I386 folder on your C:\ drive you may not need the disk.

Click Start>Run
Type in sfc /scannow, hit Enter.
Note: there is a space between sfc and /scannow
This should replace any corrupted/missing system files and will hopefully fix things.



If that did not help you can try downloading it here and install it in your C:\windows\system32 folder and see if that helps.

Remove this entry with HJT and it should fix the other error.
O4 - Global Startup: Adobe Gamma Loader.lnk = C:\Program Files\Common Files\Adobe\Calibration\Adobe Gamma Loader.exe

Your HJT log is clean and Combofix did not find anything bad so if your still having the above two errors let me know and I will link you to some windows support sites that deal with windows issues.
