Hello and Help - IE 6.0 hijacked by Anti virus software co's and web browsers (x-max)

[bje111]

Thanks for allowing a newbie to post for help! I've followed the sticky instructions and think I have everything here required. By the way, I already feel like I'm miles further ahead getting this resolved than I've been over the last two days after simply reviewing this forum.

Crux of the problem - a map was downloaded fron the net and immediately hijacked IE 6.0. In addition, our McAfee program identifying the presence of a trojan virus.

Home page was hijacked,with anti virus software company pages popping up, registry changes made, google is inoperable -links simply redirect to other web browsers, antivirus software warning icon has imbeded itself in my toolbar, etc.

As requested:

Welcome to Safer Networking, I wish to be sure you have viewed and understand this information.
"BEFORE you POST" (READ this Procedure before Requesting Assistance)
http://forums.spybot.info/showthread.php?t=288
All advice given is taken at your own risk.
Please make sure you have read this information so we are on the same page.

You are infected, I suggest you keep this computer offline except when troubleshooting, the junk may download more. If you have any tool I use, delete it and download it new from the link I provide. Read and follow the directions carefully, the tools will not work unless you do.

http://siri.geekstogo.com/SmitfraudFix.php <<< download Smitfraudfix from here and follow ONLY these directions.

Search:
Double-click SmitfraudFix.exe
Select 1 and hit Enter to create a report of the infected files. The report can be found at the root of the system drive, usually at C:\rapport.txt

Note: process.exe is detected by some antivirus programs (AntiVir, Dr.Web, Kaspersky) as a "RiskTool". It is not a virus, but a program used to stop system processes. Antivirus programs cannot distinguish between "good" and "malicious" use of such programs, therefore they may alert the user.
http://www.beyondlogic.org/consultin...rocessutil.htm

Post only the C:\rapport.txt

Thanks

[bje111]

Thx for the quick reply, pskelley. Couldn't find the prompt line for c:\rapport, so I posted the full file. Hope this is OK.

Lastly, I'm not sure what I was supposed to do with the beyond logic link?

Thanks, that is what I needed to see, Smitfraudfix found the infection, now we need to clean it. Read and follow the directions carefully.

Clean:
Reboot your computer in Safe Mode (before the Windows icon appears, tap the F8 key continually)
Double-click SmitfraudFix.exe
Select 2 and hit Enter to delete infect files.
You will be prompted: Do you want to clean the registry ? answer Y (yes) and hit Enter in order to remove the Desktop background and clean registry keys associated with the infection.
The tool will now check if wininet.dll is infected. You may be prompted to replace the infected file (if found): Replace infected file ? answer Y (yes) and hit Enter to restore a clean file.
A reboot may be needed to finish the cleaning process. The report can be found at the root of the system drive, usually at C:\rapport.txt

Optional:
To restore Trusted and Restricted site zone, select 3 and hit Enter.
You will be prompted: Restore Trusted Zone ? answer Y (yes) and hit Enter to delete trusted zone.
Note, if you use SpywareBlaster and/or IE-SPYAD, it will be necessary to re-install the protection both afford. For SpywareBlaster, run the program and re-protect all items. For IE-SPYAD, run the batch file and reinstall the protection.

Post the C:\rapport.txt and a new HJT log.

Thanks

I couldn't run smitfraudfix.exe properly. I ended up getting "cannot open import clean.reg" for both selection 2 and the clean registry select "Y" prompt. It never asked me to replace any wininet.dll file.

Here are the files as requested...thanks!

I couldn't run smitfraudfix.exe properly. I ended up getting "cannot open import clean.reg" for both selection 2 and the clean registry select "Y" prompt. It never asked me to replace any wininet.dll file.

Thanks for the feedback, no doubt this fix runs best on XP. The wininet.dll is only replaced if it is infected and if a copy is on the copy to use. Let's see what the HJT log looks like now.

How to make files and folders visible:
Click Start > Open My Computer.
Select the Tools menu and click Folder Options.
Select the View Tab. Under the Hidden files and folders heading, select Show hidden files and folders.
Uncheck: Hide file extensions for known file types
Uncheck the Hide protected operating system files (recommended) option.
Click Yes to confirm. Click OK.
You may reverse this for safety when we are finished.

Please download ATF Cleaner by Atribune
http://www.atribune.org/content/view/25/2/
Save it to your Desktop. We will use this later.

Open HijackThis and choose "Do a system scan only" then check the box in front of these line items:

R0 - HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main,Local Page = C:\windows\system32\blank.htm
R0 - HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main,Local Page = C:\windows\system32\blank.htm
O2 - BHO: (no name) - {FDD3B846-8D59-4ffb-8758-209B6AD74ACC} - (no file)

Close all programs but HJT and all browser windows, then click on "Fix Checked"

Right click Start > Explore and navigate to these files/folders and delete them if there.

C:\windows\system32\blank.htm <<< delete that file if there.

Run ATF Cleaner
Double-click ATF-Cleaner.exe to run the program.
Click Select All found at the bottom of the list.
Click the Empty Selected button.
Click Exit on the Main menu to close the program.

If all goes well, then run a new Kaspersky Online Scan. Do not post a clean scan, only if you have questions.

Thanks

It looks like we are good to go! Thanks so much for your help pskelley! My dontation is on the way!!!

I've changed the folder options back to the protected mode.

Apart from running spybot and my McAfee anti spyware, 24/7 and making sure no one downloads .exe files from anywhere other than trusted sources, what simple recommendations do you have to keep us from ending up back in the same situation?

Thanks.
