ClickSpring.PurityScan, random programs.

[Will Hummel]

Hello everyone! I'm new to the forum and I am in need of some help.

Alright, Monday evening I happened to download a file which seemed to be full of spyware, malware, and viruses. Now my dad and I have been working on this all week trying to remove this crap. Basically we've removed a lot of the problems. Like Bar888, fake virus alerts which tried to get us to install WinAntiVirus Pro 2006 and some other programs, pop ups without the internet being used and all sorts of things mainly which hijacked internet explorer, random ads coming on, redirecting websites, and all sorts of nightmares. We've managed to get rid of a lot of things and we even managed to control IE a little bit, however Windows Defender still pops up when I log on saying that ClickSpring is still trying to work. Every time we access IE we get the same message again and again only to remove it and watch it come right back on within minutes and we still sometimes get redirecting websites.

Now we need to know how to fully remove this crap from our computer. Here is a HijackThis log.

Hello Will Hummel,

Welcome to Safer Networking Forums :)

Please download VundoFix.exe (http://www.atribune.org/ccount/click.php?id=4) to your desktop. Double-click VundoFix.exe to run it. Click the Scan for Vundo button. Once it's done scanning, click the Remove Vundo button. You will receive a prompt asking if you want to remove the files, click YES Once you click yes, your desktop will go blank as it starts removing Vundo. When completed, it will prompt that it will reboot your computer, click OK. Please post the contents of C:\vundofix.txt and a new HiJackThis log.

1. Download this file - combofix.exe (http://download.bleepingcomputer.com/sUBs/combofix.exe)
2. Double click combofix.exe & follow the prompts.
3. When finished, it will produce a log for you. Post that log in your next reply please, along with a new HijackThis log.

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

In your reply, I need to see the reports from VundoFix and ComboFix, and a new HijackThis log, please.

Thanks,
tea
