    Default Adware.YourSiteBar --> ysb_prompt[1].htm

    guys...if you please can help me, i would be so thankful

    i have scanned my system usig norton, and it picks up a virus Adware.YourSiteBar with the file name of "ysb_prompt[1].htm". However it does not do anything unlike the usual where it tries to do either fix/quarantine/delete. Also I've already tried using the anti spywares such as Ad aware and SpyBot S&D but neither of them can even detect it.

    So far the symptom is just make my system much slower. But i still can open regedit and task manager.

    Below is my Hijackthis logfile

    hi yogabo,

    lets try this:

    start>settings>Control Panel> click the Internet options icon

    Next:

    Click on Delete Cookies.

    Click on Delete Files, Make sure Delete all offline content is checked and then click on OK


    Then click on Settings, then click on View Files if there is any thing in there, delete what you can
    (edit>select all--- then file>delete)

    Then at the top in the address bar, at the end where it says:

    \Temporary Internet Files

    change it to \Temp then hit enter and delete what you can.
    ----------------------------------
    see if that helps

    hi yogabo,

    adware is all gone now
    good

    it just seem a bit simple
    norton was probably flagging that item in your IE cache or somewhere else.
    ----------------------------------------------

    looks like you got rid of it. if all is good, heres some reference material:

    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?

    Make sure you keep your Windows OS current by visiting Windows update
    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
    Working with Internet Explorer 6 Security
    Many exploits are directed at Internet Explorer, you dont have to use it. Try a different browser.
    Like 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 (free version)
    Outpost Lite


    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.
    look here
    and here
    Or try Pegasus Mail, safer by default,no tweaking needed.

    Make sure you have and keep updated Antivirus software
    Free for home users:
    avast! 4 Home Edition Download
    AVG free version 7.0
    AntiVir Personal Edition

    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 Free trial version
    Spybot Search and destroy
    Ad-Aware SE Personal edition
    Microsoft Windows Defender
    Becarful with spyware "removers and scanners"-- there are many "rogue/suspect" programs that "claim to remove" spyware.Check here first.

    AntiTrojan software to fill in the gap:
    a2 free
    Ewido Anti-Malware
    Trojan Hunter (30 day trial version)
    Tauscan trial version

    Other programs to consider:
    Process Guard stop events/processes with user intervention
    SpywareBlaster add security to IE
    IE-SPYAD adds adware peddlers sites/domains to IE restricted zone
    CleanUp cleans out temps,history, autoforms etc

    Since the problems are solved Im going to close the topic now, this keeps others with similar problems from posting there logs/question here, they should start a new topic.
