Hi
I am running home XP on Dell 8400 with no Mods (as yet)
I have a strage problem that none of my tech support can solve but all believe is a virus/malware or something similar.
Basically what happens is that on reboot, the PC runs trhough the Dell start up screen (prompts for F2 & F12) & then hangs on a black screen with an underscore cursor in top left hand corner.
The only way to fully boot is to F12 (go to start up) exit start up & it boots.
I have run god knows haw many scans, checks, restores (well not too many of the latter to be honest coz its a pain!) & no one seens to be able to help.
Is there something lurking in the back ground here os is it just that I bought a Dell?
Any help would be appreciated.
By the way, I ran silent runners but am not totally sure what I am looking at.:sick:

Hi

Disconnect from the internet Close ALL browser windows (including this one) - run hijackthis and tick to fix (check the box next to) the list below.........when all are ticked (checked) click the Fix Checked button at the bottom. :-


O2 - BHO: (no name) - {7E853D72-626A-48EC-A868-BA8D5E23E045} - (no file)

O3 - Toolbar: (no name) - {BA52B914-B692-46c4-B683-905236F6F655} - (no file)

O4 - HKCU\..\Run: [LDM] C:\Program Files\Logitech\Desktop Messenger\8876480\Program\LogitechDesktopMessenger.exe


ALL the O18 - Protocol: C:\Program Files\Logitech\Desktop Messenger similar to this :-

O18 - Protocol: bw+0 - {7D994E2F-D2C2-4F89-9D29-144F1958A003} - C:\Program Files\Logitech\Desktop Messenger\8876480\Program\BWPlugProtocol-8876480.dll



there are only 2 O18 entries you should leave ... near the bottom...

O18 - Protocol: livecall - {828030A1-22C1-4009-854F-8E305202313F} - C:\PROGRA~1\MSNMES~1\MSGRAP~1.DLL
O18 - Protocol: msnim - {828030A1-22C1-4009-854F-8E305202313F} - C:\PROGRA~1\MSNMES~1\MSGRAP~1.DLL

Reboot then do this :-

Download CCleaner from :-

http://www.filehippo.com/download_ccleaner/ (click the download tab)

During the installation be sure to UN-check the box for "Ccleaner Yahoo Toolbar" unless you want it.

doubleclick the ccsetup.exe file and install the program...

After installing, go to Start > programs > CCleaner > Options > Advanced > UNCHECK "Only delete files in Windows Temp folder older than 48 hours"

Make sure the "windows" tab is selected

Under "internet explorer" tick...

Temporary internet files
Cookies* > see Note below
History
Recently typed URL's (leave this unticked if you DON'T want to clear the drop down list in the address window of IE)
Delete index.dat files
Last download location
Autocomplete form history


under "Windows explorer" these are optional, but you can safely tick them all if you wish, they are only "most recently used lists"

Other explorer MRU's (leave this unticked if you DON'T want to clear lists such as the start\run list)

under "System"

Tick ALL these ...


under "Advanced"

no need to tick any of these (but you can if you want, and realise what they do)


Applications tab...

These will mostly clean out old log files for these applications...

Clean:- (if you use them)

Firefox/Mozilla (optional - leave the cookies - see note)
Opera
Sun Java
ZoneAlarm
...
Personally I clean everything in the applications tab... but you tick what you want...

Note: *If there are any cookies you want to keep (if you remove the cookie for a site you require a password for, you will need to re-enter your password when you next visit that site) ... click options > cookies > then keep the cookies you want.

click "analyse" if you want to see a list of what is going to be removed, before it is removed.

Or

click "run cleaner" to let it get on with it's work... clicking this will result in the following pop-up

"This process will permanently delete files from your system. Are you sure you wish to proceed?"

click OK.

Let us know if this helps ?

cheers

Hi again :bigthumb:
I ran HijackThis & CCleaner as you told me & things appear to be better.
I still get the black screen with the underscore cursor at start up, it is now however flashing (previously it would hang immediately) and boots into windows without me having to go through setup.
Is this a symptom of some sort of infection or could it be a hardware issue? (I have run the Dell hardware diagnostics which also come up blank though).
Just for info, I run the following on a regular basis:

Ad-Aware SE
Ewido
AVG 7
Spybot (obviously)
WinCleaner one click
Windows Defender

My thanks again for the help so far. If its OK, I will add a link to my blog for this one to reccomend to others.

Sure ... link away...

As we appear to have made headway, that, to me would suggest it's not a hardware problem...

I have no reason to suspect a rootkit but I would like you to run this for me...

1. Download gmer from http://www.gmer.net
2. Save it somewhere safe & unzip it to desktop
3. Double click the gmer.exe to run it and select the rootkit tab, press scan
4. If GMER detects rootkit activity, you are prompted to scan immediately
5. Click Yes to begin the scan
6. If you are not prompted to Scan:
7. In the Rootkit tab, make sure all the boxes on the right of the screen are checked, except for "Show All"
8. Click the Scan button.
9. Once the scan is done, click: Copy (This will copy the results to your clipboard)
10. Paste the results in your next reply.

Warning ! Please, do not select the "Show all" checkbox during the scan.

& a new hijackthis log please...

Hi Steamwiz
Apologies for the delay but have had to dismantle my PC desk for Xmas & am now sharing air time with 300 TV channels. (the kids seem to be winning!)
Have tried getting to gmer.net but keep getting error messages. will try again a few times tonight & tomorrow & will let you know as soon as I get things downloaded (or not).
By the way, even though I have tried using somne of the more popular AV/AM/AS software, this is the only place where I have had anything near trouble free and friendly help.
Am recomending site to just about everyone I meet (but will stop during parties):present:

Hi

The gmer site does appear to be down at the moment ... may need to give it a day of 2, if it doesn't come back on line soon I'll find you a mirror site or run some different rootkit scans...

In the meantime would you please run this and post the log :-

Please download Combofix: http://download.bleepingcomputer.com/sUBs/combofix.exe
and save to the desktop.

1. Double click on combo.exe & follow the prompts.
2. When finished, it will produce a logfile located at C:\ComboFix.txt.
3. Post the contents of that log in your next reply with a new hijackthis log.

Notes:
* Do not mouseclick combofix's window while it is running. That may cause your system to stall/hang.
* Disable script blocking if you have NAV installed so it will not interfere with the fix. Trojan Hunter has been reported to detect combofix as Worm.Qiv.100.

HI

Combofix doesn't show anything...

The flashing cursor on the black screen sounds like a possible memory problem...

Sometimes a computer will hang at this point during a reboot, because a program has not been released properly from the memory...

How much RAM do you have ?

Go to > Start > Run > type or copy > msinfo32 > click OK

System Information opens ...

Hi
Total Physical Memory 1,024.00 MB
Available physical memory 698.04 MB
Total virtual memory 2GB
Available virtual memory 1.96 GB

I will run the scans overnight & post tomorrow.

One thing, Could a keyboard (Saitek) be causing this sort of problem?
I have been trying to figure out what changed when this first started & two things come to mind. the first software (now off PC) & the other is this gamers keyboard.

Maybe I shouold remove & try a different one. Will let you know & thanks again
:cool:

Hi again
Backlight did not pick up any errors & here is the log from Rootkit reavealer:

HKLM\SECURITY\Policy\Secrets\SAC* 11/08/2004 01:23 0 bytes Key name contains embedded nulls (*)
HKLM\SECURITY\Policy\Secrets\SAI* 11/08/2004 01:23 0 bytes Key name contains embedded nulls (*)
HKLM\SOFTWARE\Classes\webcal\URL Protocol 17/05/2005 20:47 13 bytes Data mismatch between Windows API and raw hive data.
HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\System* 03/12/2006 21:20 0 bytes Key name contains embedded nulls (*)

I am starting to think that this may not be a intrusion by software & may be something different. will try the keyboard thing after work & let you know.

HI

RAM's OK ... it's showing a full Gig ...if it was showing 1023 or some other figure less than 1024 then you would suspect a faulty RAM stick was possibly the problem ... but that's now ruled out...

Rootkit revealer's not showing anything either...

Swapping the keyboard's worth a try ... heck, anything is ... let us know how you get on...

Hi again & thanks for yiour patience. Christmas TV won out over my PC use (Must get the desk back in from the shed!!!)
Thought I should update you.
I tried swapping the Saitek keyboard with a woreless one but unfortunately, it wont work with my Dell. think I will build my own next time. funny thing is, when I put the Saitek back on, I did not put the key pad on (it comes with a gamers 9 digit gamers key pad).
The strange thing is that althoguh not perfect, the reboot is nearly back to what it should be.
I am going to dig out the original Dell keyboard & reinstall that in the next week or so. In the meanwhile, I am being a little more paranoid about what I am putting on.
My thanks for all your assistance & will update as soon as I can.
Some times it is the last thing you expect that should be the first question.
