Help on Adware.Look2Me

**roberto71** · 2006-05-01, 01:46

Hello,
I am pretty new to the forum. I have seen the Look2Me has been widely discussed, yet I couldn't find a way to fully remove it (tried many).

Here's the hjt log:

----------------

I have also done a new Spybot scan which returned the three objetcts of the Command Service (which I have seen discussed widely as well), and the WindowsSecurityCenter.AntiVirusDisableNotify.

Those entries were identified also during the Look2Me infections, and I attempted to removed them - usually two of them gets removed, two not, but on startup all four of them are there again...
So the Look2Me seems gone, now it's a matter of removing those registry entries?

I have one more question:
I keep getting the RUNDLL error, failing to load the IDX32.DLL on startup, what can I do about it?

Thanks again for your support, highly appreciated.
Ciao,
Roberto

Hi

Yes you've got rid of L2M

I have also done a new Spybot scan which returned the three objetcts of the Command Service

Please download delcmdservice (by Marckie), and save it to your Desktop.

1. Unzip to your Desktop (a folder named delcmdservice)
2. Open the delcmdservice folder
3. Double-click on delreg.bat to launch the tool
4. When the tool has finished, please reboot your computer
5. please scan with HijackThis! and post the new log, in your next reply.

and the WindowsSecurityCenter.AntiVirusDisableNotify

Windows Security Center.AntiVirusDisableNotify: Settings (Registry change, nothing done)

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Security Center\AntiVirusDisableNotify!=dword:0

I presume this is the entry you are reffering too ?

This is not a problem... it's giving you information...

This is a registry key which will tell you if your AntiVirus becomes disabled ... only in your case it wont because the key is not enabled... do you want to be informed if your AntiVirus becomes disabled ? ... if you do, then fix this.

In other words, your AntiVirus is NOT being monitored to see if it becomes disabled...so as it is you will NOT be informed if it does become disabled.. if you fix this entry, it will enable the key, your AntiVirus WILL be monitored, & you WILL be informed if it becomes disabled.

I have one more question:
I keep getting the RUNDLL error, failing to load the IDX32.DLL on startup, what can I do about it?

You are getting this error because windows is looking for the file to run, and it has been removed (malware)

You just need to remove the run key from the registry, to stop windows looking for it...

Run hijackthis and place a checkmark next to this entry, and click "fix checked"

Regarding the
Windows Security Center.AntiVirusDisableNotify: Settings (Registry change, nothing done)

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Security Center\AntiVirusDisableNotify!=dword:0

Yes it is exactly this entry. That entry doesn't show up with Hjt but it does with Spybot, so I was worried about it - Spybot doesn't fix it, so if I shall fix I need to know why (other manual editing the registry). My antivirus engine was giving the error 0x20000058 which forces me to restart manually the service each time I want to scan.

Any help is appreciated!
Thank you and ciao,
Roberto

Uops, I meant: I need to know HOW (other THAN manual editing?).
Sorry about that.

I presume this is the entry you are referring too ?

This is not a problem... it's giving you information...

This is a registry key which will tell you if your AntiVirus becomes disabled ... only in your case it wont because the key is not enabled... do you want to be informed if your AntiVirus becomes disabled ? ... if you do, then fix this.

In other words, your AntiVirus is NOT being monitored to see if it becomes disabled...so as it is you will NOT be informed if it does become disabled.. if you fix this entry, it will enable the key, your AntiVirus WILL be monitored, & you WILL be informed if it becomes disabled.

Hi Roberto

Did you read what i said above ?

I say again...This is not a problem... it's giving you information...It was probably set this way by your Norton anti-virus...

I'm not sure exactly what you want ?

do you want to be informed if your AntiVirus becomes disabled ?

If you don't, then just leave it and exclude it from future scans...

Hello steam,

yes I have read what you said above; I was just pointing out that the entry is coming up in Spybot so I was worried - but of course, as you said, "it's not a problem".

I also knew that the ""Scan Engine Error 0x20000046 or 0x20000058" was a different issue. I was worried the two things could be related.

Anyhow, now everything seems solved and the threads you pointed to may help me out in this case, if I need further assistance.

Again, thank you very much for your help!!
And greetings to everyone in this resourceful forum!!

Ciao
Roberto
