hi levskarcheto,

ok good. shelf life missed something. this time we will get one more app to run, then use hjt, then boot into safe mode to run ewido. ok:
----------------------------------------
1. Download Ewido and install
Ewido anti malware. It is a free trial version of the program:

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

2. Install ewido anti malware
3. Launch ewido, there should be an icon on your desktop double-click it.
4. The program will now go to the main screen

You will need to update ewido to the latest definition files.

1. On the left hand side of the main screen click update
2. Then click on Start Update

The update will start and a progress bar will show the updates being installed.
If you are having problems with the updater, you can use Ewido manual updates

after you have ewido updated, scan with hjt and have it fix:

O2 - BHO: CControl Object - {3643ABC2-21BF-46B9-B230-F247DB0C6FD6} - C:\Program Files\E2G\IeBHOs.dll

O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [pop06ap] C:\WINDOWS\pop06ap2.exe

O15 - Trusted Zone: *.mmohsix.com

O20 - AppInit_DLLs: iniwin32.dll
----------------------------
ok now boot directly into SAFE MODE, i guess you already know how to do that.

once in safe mode scan with ewido:
Click on scanner
Click Complete System Scan and the scan will begin.
During the scan it will prompt you to clean files, click OK
When it asks if you want to clean the first file, put a check in the lower left corner of the box that says "Perform action on all infections" then choose clean and click OK.
When the scan is finished, click the Save report button at the bottom of the screen.
Save the report to your desktop

Close Ewido

look once more and delete e2g folder located here:C:\Program Files if present
--------------------------------
reboot normally, scan and post a new hjt log.......shelf life

hi levskarcheto,

ok we will try two things. might copy/paste this to notepad and save it somewhere so you can read it. we will be in SAFE MODE.
---------------
make sure files are set to show:
FOr XP: on the desktop double click my computer,go to tools>folder options>view> then select "show hidden files and folders", then UNcheck "hide protected operating system files " also UNcheck "hide extensions for known file types" click apply to all folders, apply then ok
----------------
1) Boot computer into SAFE MODE use hjt and select this line to "fix"

O20 - AppInit_DLLs: iniwin32.dll
------------------
now manually try to find the iniwin32.dll located here:C:\WINDOWS\system32
if you find it attempt to delete it.
next see if you can delete the e2g folder in C:\Program Files

reboot normally rescan with hjt, see if the folder shows back up in the log or this line O20 - AppInit_DLLs: iniwin32.dll.

if so go to step 2:
--------------------
2)
go to start>run> type in cmd. a dos prompt should open in a new window. at the prompt type:regsvr32 /u iniwin32.dll (note space after 32 and /u) hit enter, then delete the e2g folder and the iniwin32.dll in system32 dir.

hi again.

in case the above fails.
when you try to delete the e2g folder in c program files. do you get a windows popup like: "Access is denied", or "cannot delete", "file in use" or any message? let me know. thanks....

levskarcheto
2006-05-06, 01:27
yeah it did fail :(
i went into safe mode, and ran HJT and tried to delete the file, it gave me an error that i can not delete it. After that I tried to delete that file manually, but it said that the file is in use and cannot delete it. I didn't get to the E2G folder, but i have tried to delete it hundreds of time before, and it does delete, but it come back in about 1 to 2 seconds.
let me know if you need some more information
10x for the help until now :)

oh and for the second step, i tried to do that, and the messege was "the file was found and loaded, but the DllUnregister Server entry point was not found; this file can not be registered" and then again i couldn't delete that file from C windows System32.........and the E2G folder was the same, pops back up in 2 seconds

2006-05-06, 03:52
hi levskarcheto,

crap. ok do this.
go to start>run and type in regedit then click the + signs in left column for each of these:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Windows

when done should see APPInit DLLS in right side column
go to--at top Registry>export registry file>call it reg.txt and save as type:all files, save it to your desktop. then copy/paste that txt file in next reply.
--------------------------
may as well try this: its freeware, called unlocker can get it here:
http://ccollomb.free.fr/unlocker/

download and install, find the offending .dll in the system32 dir. right click on it and you will see a selection for unlocker. click on unlocker and some options will come up, delete, rename. try delete first. also do same for the e2g folder in program files.
if it dosnt work, just uninstall it via add/remove programs panel if you want.

levskarcheto
2006-05-06, 05:44
I'm not sure if this is what you wanted.......if its something different let me know..... For the Unlocker, i counldn't get the delete to work, i might be doing it wrong, but i don't know, i got the rename to work, but not the delete........


Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

hi levskarcheto,

ok. glad to help, happy safe surfing out there, for your reference:

Be careful of what you download, and where you download it from. Many programs come bundled with extra software.You may be installing more than you think. Make sure you understand what it is you will be downloading and installing to your computer. Visit the makers website, learn more about the program, Does the program you want come bundled with other "3rd party" programs? What do the 3rd party programs do? Will they deliver ads? Track your surfing habits?. Read the EULA agreement, you know, that paragraph of stuff you "agree to" before the software installs? If you search hard enough you can always find a "clean" alternative to any software. Stay away from warez and crack sites. Becarful what you download from file sharing networks. If you are not sure, scan it with your Antivirus app. A small file (in KB) is probably not what you think it is. DO YOU TRUST THE SOURCE? Check this database:Spyware Guide (http://www.spywareguide.com/)

Make sure you keep your Windows OS current by visiting Windows update (http://v4.windowsupdate.microsoft.com/en/default.asp)
occasionaly to download and install any critical updates and service packs. With out these you are leaving the backdoor open.

Adjust your browser settings: Change your(active x) settings in IE. With IE open go to tools, internet options, security tab. Click on the internet globe, then custom level. Set the first option "download signed active x controls" to prompt, the next two to disable. Read more:
Internet Explorer Privacy & Security Settings (https://netfiles.uiuc.edu/ehowes/www/btw/ie/ie-opts.htm)
Working with Internet Explorer 6 Security (http://www.microsoft.com/windows/ie/using/howto/security/settings.mspx)
Many exploits are directed at Internet Explorer, you dont have to use it. Try a different browser. You can have and use more than one browser on your computer.
Like Firefox (http://www.mozilla.org/products/firefox/),


Install a Firewall:A firewall will control what comes in from the internet and what leaves your computer to the internet. A firewall will also alert you when a application trys to connect to the internet from your computer, this is a good way to catch crapware or trojans, trying to connect out bound from your computer- whats that and why does it need a internet connection? You can deny it access it until more investigation is done. Zone Alarm is a free and easy to use firewall, that will provide in and outbound protection. Microsoft XP firewall only provides inbound protection. SP2 adds in and out bound protection which is better than nothing, but is not as robust as third party firewalls, Be sure to run only >one< firewall.If you use another, be sure to disable XP's built in firewall. If you use Zone Alarm learn what needs/uses your internet connection. If something unusal or out of the ordinary "asks" deny it access until more investigation is done.
Zone Alarm (http://www.zonelabs.com/store/content/catalog/products/sku_list_za.jsp?dc=12bms&ctry=US&lang=en&lid=dbtopnav_zass)
OutPost Lite (http://www.agnitum.com/products/outpostfree/download.php)

Outlook Express with the default settings is not secure. It will run scripts, download images etc, just like a browser. You dont have to use it. Windows SP1/SP2 updates have made some improvments to Outlook. Another reason to stay updated.
look here (http://www.codecutters.org/outlook/)
and here (http://www.tames.net/security/oesettings.htm)
Or try Pegasus Mail, safer by default,no tweaking needed. (http://www.pmail.com/)

Make sure you have and keep updated Antivirus software
Free for home users:
avast! 4 Home Edition Download (http://www.avast.com/eng/free_virus_protectio.html)
AVG free version 7.0 (http://free.grisoft.com/freeweb.php/doc/2/)
AntiVir Personal Edition (http://www.free-av.com/)
clam Win (http://www.Clamwin.com/component/option,com_frontpage/Itemid,1/)

Download one or two of these, install and update before using:(if these are constantly finding malware, then you need to make changes to your browser and or your habits)
CounterSpy (http://www.sunbelt-software.com/)Free trial version
Spybot Search and destroy (http://www.safer-networking.org/en/index.html)
Ad-Aware SE Personal edition (http://www.lavasoft.de/)
Microsoft Windows Defender (http://www.microsoft.com/athome/security/spyware/software/default.mspx)
Becarful with spyware "removers and scanners"-- there are many "rogue/suspect" (http://www.spywarewarrior.com/rogue_anti-spyware.htm) programs that "claim to remove" spyware.Check here first.

Dont be tempted to click on popup ads offering free scans or free downloads for malware removers. Read the above line again.

AntiTrojan software to fill in the gap:
a2 free (http://www.emsisoft.com/en/software/free/)
Ewido Anti-Malware (http://www.ewido.net/en/)
Trojan Hunter (30 day trial version) (http://www.misec.net/)
Tauscan trial version (http://www.agnitum.com/products/tauscan/)

Other programs to consider:
