computer is hijacked

**carolebrew** · 2009-11-06, 06:42

Here is the link to my previous thread that I was asked to move

http://forums.spybot.info/showthread.php?t=53177

I get an error running hijack this.

Error says that the system denied write access to host file and that hijack this ma If any hijack domains are in the file Hijackthis may not be able to fix this. If this happens you may need to edit the file yourself. To do this click on start run and type in notepad C:\windows\System32\drivers\etc\hosts

..... then get an error that says you have a particularly large amount of hijack domains, it may be better to delete the file ......

Here is the log

Hello Carol

Welcome to Safer Networking.

Please read Before You Post
While best efforts are made to assist in removing infections safely, unexpected stuff can happen. It is advisable that you back up your important data before starting any clean up procedure. Neither Safer Networking Forums nor the Analyst providing the advice may be held responsible for any loss.

Looks like we're on the same page now

I need you to download HostsXpert to your desktop, but don't run it yet

Download the HostsXpert 4.3 - Hosts File Manager.

Unzip HostsXpert 4.2.0.0 - Hosts File Manager to a convenient folder such as C:\HostsXpert
Click HostsXpert.exe to Run HostsXpert - Hosts File Manager from its new home
Click "Make Hosts Writable?" in the upper left corner.
Click Restore Microsoft's Hosts file and then click OK.
Click the X to exit the program.
Note: If you were using a custom Hosts file you will need to replace any of those entries yourself.

Please download OTM by OldTimer.

Save it to your desktop.
Please click OTM and then click >> run.
Copy the lines inside the codebox below to the clipboard by highlighting ALL of them and pressing CTRL + C (or, after highlighting, right-click and choose Copy):

Code:

:Processes
explorer.exe

:Services

:Reg

:Files
C:\windows\System32\drivers\etc\hosts


:Commands
[purity]
[emptytemp]
[start explorer]
[Reboot]

Return to OTM, right click in the "Paste Instructions for items to be Moved" window (under the yellow bar) and choose Paste.
Click the red Moveit! button.
Copy everything in the Results window (under the green bar) to the clipboard by highlighting ALL of them and pressing CTRL + C (or, after highlighting, right-click and choose copy), and paste it in your next reply.
Close OTM

Note: If an item cannot be moved immediately you may be asked to reboot the machine to finish the move process. If you are asked to reboot the machine choose Yes. In this case, after the reboot, open Notepad (Start->All Programs->Accessories->Notepad), click File->Open, in the File Name box enter *.log and press the Enter key, navigate to the C:\_OTM\MovedFiles folder, and open the newest .log file present, and copy/paste the contents of that document back here in your next post.

Now run HostsXpert

Restore Microsoft's Hosts file <-- You will get a message stating that there is no hosts file available do you want to create one SAY YES

Post a new HJT log please
