Hey, I'm really stumped by this virus/malware that I have. It sporadically opens up IE windows, normally to luxe-software. It also redirects my google searches, but if I click back 3 times, it will allow me to go to the original site. Additionally, it will not let me view a few different websites, most notably bleepingcomputer.com, which means I can't download combofix from their server. I've run Spybot, and it seems to pick up a number of malware problems and "fixes" the problems. Under my task manager, iexplore.exe is always open, even when there are no windows visible.

I know I'm not supposed to follow other peoples' instructions, but I've been clicking around this forum for a few days trying everything possible with the exception of combofix. I've tried eset's online scanner, Spybot, superantispyware, and mbam. Interestingly, I cannot run spybot or mbam without renaming the .exe to something different than the default.

Here's my HJT log, and thanks for any and all help.

Also of note, gmer makes my computer freeze every time i try to run it. When i ctrl+alt+del and go to task manager, it just gives me a black screen. Earlier today it wouldn't let me access my personalized google page or these forums - it would crash firefox after it tried to load a map or one of my gadgets.

I feel helpless to this darn virus :(

Hi,

Is there any specific reason that you don't have service pack 1 or 2 installed on Vista (not asking you to install one now)?

Download DDS and save it to your desktop from here (http://www.techsupportforum.com/sectools/sUBs/dds) or here (http://download.bleepingcomputer.com/sUBs/dds.scr) or here (http://www.forospyware.com/sUBs/dds).
Disable any script blocker, and then double click dds.scr to run the tool.
When done, DDS will open two (2) logs:
DDS.txt
Attach.txt

Save both reports to your desktop. Post them back to your topic.
