Can someone help me please,
Spybot found 7 problems, I have managed to get rid of 5
FunWebProducts 2 PUPS remain and no matter what I do I cant get rid of them.
I dont know how to do a log or how to get it on here.
I am sorry to sound thick but I am learning still and am self taught.
I would be grateful of any advice/help anyone can give me, easy explanations would be welcome.

Hi water_farie

Click here (http://www.trendsecure.com/portal/en-US/threat_analytics/HJTInstall.exe) to download HJTInstall.exe
Save HJTInstall.exe to your desktop.
Doubleclick on the HJTInstall.exe icon on your desktop.
By default it will install to C:\Program Files\Trend Micro\HijackThis .
Click on Install.
It will create a HijackThis icon on the desktop.
Once installed, it will launch Hijackthis.
Click on the Do a system scan and save a logfile button. It will scan and the log should open in notepad.
Click on "Edit > Select All" then click on "Edit > Copy" to copy the entire contents of the log.
Come back here to this thread and Paste the log in your next reply.
DO NOT use the AnalyseThis button, its findings are dangerous if misinterpreted.
DO NOT have Hijackthis fix anything yet. Most of what it finds will be harmless or even required.

I will not do anything with this till I hear from you, as it's a bit scary lol x

[Shaba]

Please download Malwarebytes Anti-Malware (http://www.besttechie.net/tools/mbam-setup.exe) and save it to your desktop.
alternate download link 1 (http://malwarebytes.gt500.org/mbam-setup.exe)
alternate download link 2 (http://www.majorgeeks.com/Malwarebytes_Anti-Malware_d5756.html)
Make sure you are connected to the Internet.
Double-click on mbam-setup.exe to install the application.
When the installation begins, follow the prompts and do not make any changes to default settings.
When installation has finished, make sure you leave both of these checked:
Update Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware
Launch Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware

Then click Finish.
MBAM will automatically start and you will be asked to update the program before performing a scan. If an update is found, the program will automatically update itself. Press the OK button to close that box and continue. If you encounter any problems while downloading the updates, manually download them from here (http://www.malwarebytes.org/mbam/database/mbam-rules.exe) and just double-click on mbam-rules.exe to install.
On the Scanner tab:
Make sure the "Perform Full Scan" option is selected.
Then click on the Scan button.

If asked to select the drives to scan, leave all the drives selected and click on the Start Scan button.
The scan will begin and "Scan in progress" will show at the top. It may take some time to complete so please be patient.
When the scan is finished, a message box will say "The scan completed successfully. Click 'Show Results' to display all objects found".
Click OK to close the message box and continue with the removal process.
Back at the main Scanner screen, click on the Show Results button to see a list of any malware that was found.
Make sure that everything is checked, and click Remove Selected.
When removal is completed, a log report will open in Notepad and you may be prompted to restart your computer. (see Note below)
The log is automatically saved and can be viewed by clicking the Logs tab in MBAM.
Copy and paste the contents of that report in your next reply and exit MBAM.
Note: If MBAM encounters a file that is difficult to remove, you will be presented with 1 of 2 prompts. Click OK to either and let MBAM proceed with the disinfection process. If asked to restart the computer, please do so immediately. Failure to reboot will prevent MBAM from removing all the malware.

Am off to do it!!

[Shaba]

Yes that is fine :)

Does Spybot still find something?

[water_farie]

I don't know,
was worried to do anything until I heard form you lol
I will go and do a scan with spybot and get back to you
And thank you soooo much for all your help and patience
A very happy farie x:heart:

[Shaba]

Thanks for info :)

[water_farie]

Ello Shaba,
I ran Spybot and the MyFunWebProducts are still there 2 PUPS!
I had 2 registry change warnings come up after fixing the problem with the malware scan, was I meant to allow or deny the change?

Whats the next course of action please. :rolleyes:

[Shaba]

Do a scan and take screenshot from results and post it here, please :)

[water_farie]

What is a screenshot and how do I do it please

[Shaba]

Here (http://www.wikihow.com/Take-a-Screenshot-in-Microsoft-Windows) are good instructions :)

So first run a scan with spybot and leave that window open in which are spybot findings. Click + in left side of findings to enlarge results first.

After you have taken that screenshot save it as PNG or JPG as instructed in tutorial to a folder where you can easily find it (like Desktop) and upload in to some service (like tinypic.com) and post back link here :)

[water_farie]

LOL
Thanks, off to do it x

[water_farie]

I have it in tinypic but I dont know what to do with it to send it to you on here.....
Sorry

[Shaba]

See here (http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/tutorials/tutorial96.html#upload)

There are simple instructions for photobucket :)

Use that IMG thing in your reply, please.

[water_farie]

I'm really sorry Shaba,
U have lost me now on what you need me to do,
I uploaded it on tinypic but I can't seem to find it now!!
I told you I was new to this...lol
I tried to attach it to this but it would not work.
help.......lol:sad:

[Shaba]

Yes, you told me that :)

That's why see instructions from my second link to upload it to photobucket; there are step-by-step instructions so that should work.

[water_farie]

It will not upload in photobucket
sorry Shaba

[Shaba]

You can try this (http://news.imageshack.us/blog/?p=21) next.

Is this any good?
I used photoshack
if not I will type in the details as I have written them down.
Sorry Shaba

[water_farie]

Also when my computer restarts I get a spybot window up saying..
Category Change,
System Startup global entry
Change : Value deleted
enrty : Spybot SnD

do I deny or allow this please?

[Shaba]

That is fine :)

Morning Shaba,
here is what you asked me to do x

[Shaba]

That looks good :)

Does Spybot still find something?

[water_farie]

NO!!!!!!
Just finished a scan with Spybot and no infections found!
I would hug you if I could Shaba!!

Thank you for all your patience with me, your a star :heart:

Would you advise using Malwarebytes now and again just to check or is it best to leave it?

Once again
Thanks Shaba :crowned:

[Shaba]

Yes, run a scan with Malwarebytes and post back what it found :)

[Shaba]

Great :)

Any other concerns or are you ready for all clean?

[water_farie]

No I think I am lovely and clean thanks to you!!:present:

My computer seems quicker and I have nice 'new' colours on it all bright...lol

Once again Shaba,
Thank you so much for your patience, kindness and help
Your a star:beerbeerb:

[Shaba]

Nice to hear :)

Now that you are clean, please follow these simple steps in order to keep your computer clean and secure:

Please download JavaRa (http://sourceforge.net/project/downloading.php?groupname=javara&filename=JavaRa.zip&use_mirror=osdn) and unzip it to your desktop.

***Please close any instances of Internet Explorer before continuing!***

Double-click on JavaRa.exe to start the program.
From the drop-down menu, choose English and click on Select.
JavaRa will open; click on Remove Older Versions to remove the older versions of Java installed on your computer.
Click Yes when prompted. When JavaRa is done, a notice will appear that a logfile has been produced. Click OK.
A logfile will pop up. Please save it to a convenient location.

Then download and install Java Runtime Environment (JRE) 6 Update 7 (http://java.sun.com/javase/downloads/index.jsp).

Disable and Enable System Restore. - If you are using Windows 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 re-enable system restore here:

Windows XP System Restore Guide (http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/forums/tutorial56.html)

Re-enable 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.

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.


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 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/tutorials/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

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 computer from connecting to those sites by redirecting them to 127.0.0.1 which is your local computer
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)

Stand Up and Be Counted ---> Malware Complaints (http://www.malwarecomplaints.info/index.php) <--- where you can make difference!

The site offers people who have been (or are) victims of malware the opportunity to document their story and, in that way, launch a complaint against the malware and the makers of the malware.

Also, please read this great article by Tony Klein So How Did I Get Infected In First Place (http://forums.spybot.info/showthread.php?t=279)

Happy surfing and stay clean!

[water_farie]

phew that sounds hard.....lol
but I will give t a go.
I do have
adaware, zonealarm, spybot, AVG on my computer already
Thanks Shaba
Take care:)

[water_farie]

oh and I don't use Internet Explorer
I use Mozilla Firefox, Mozilla Thunderbird
So can I still do these instructions?

[Shaba]

No need then :)

[water_farie]

do I need Java?
I don't really use it (well I don't think I do. ..lol)

[Shaba]

Yes, as you have old java installed:

O9 - Extra button: (no name) - {08B0E5C0-4FCB-11CF-AAA5-00401C608501} - C:\Program Files\Java\jre1.6.0_05\bin\ssv.dll
O9 - Extra 'Tools' menuitem: Sun Java Console - {08B0E5C0-4FCB-11CF-AAA5-00401C608501} - C:\Program Files\Java\jre1.6.0_05\bin\ssv.dll

It has vulnerabilities; that's why it needs to be removed and new one installed :)

[water_farie]

I removed Java this afternoon because I dont use it and just did the first part of your instructions where I removed old versions of Java.
I just tried to put a complaint on the 'stand up and be counted'
wow, what a difficult site to use I could not find where I was meant to complain too! lol
either that or I am really thick!

[Shaba]

Just pick your country subforum first.

If nothing fits, choose "Not fitting any of the other threads" or similar :)

[water_farie]

sorry to keep pestering you with questions Shaba,
If I don't want to use Java now that I have uninstalled it do I still need to disable and then enable system restore?
to be honest it sounds scary because I have never done it before but if you recommend that I do it, I will
Cheers

[Shaba]

Yes :)

There should be clear instructions in my link.

If you are unsure, just ask :)

[water_farie]

hi,
I have just looked at the link you gave me and my system is set to the figure one which means i am disabled?
so do I now follow the instructions to enable?
:rolleyes:

[Shaba]

Yes, please :)

[water_farie]

OK Shaba,
I now have ticked the box in the 'red' square on ur instructions and the 'green' box says partion c 'turned off'

what do I do now please?

Sorry I am taking a long time to pop back been working in between.

I ran adAware this morning before I contacted you and it still picked up the MyWebSearch stuff.

will this be gone after the system restore?

[Shaba]

Then reboot and uncheck it, please :)

If ad-aware still finds something, please post its log,.

[water_farie]

Thanks off to do that now x

[water_farie]

did as you requested
AdAware found nothing on this scan
will do another tomorrow to make sure

turn off system is unchecked
Partion C is Monitoring

Is that ok?

[Shaba]

Yes it is :)

[water_farie]

Thank you Shaba,
I ran AdAware this morning, the infections that showed up before did not show today.
Just scanned with Spybot, no infections there

Am I clean?

Would you recommend that I scan with Malwarebytes once a month?

I keep AVG, AdAware and Spybot all up to date

lol, anyone would think I had state secrets on my computer with all this security!
I cant get back here until 7pm so see you then
Cheers x

[Shaba]

Yes, that is fine :)

[water_farie]

Few,
Thank you Shaba,
You must be a saint you have been very patient with me:heart:

I cant thank you enough
And I only had a little problem, goodness knows what I will be like if I had big problems.......:red:

I think you all do a brilliant job here. :angel:

I will leave you in peace now
Take care x
And thanks

[Shaba]
