Something seems to have happened to my Internet connection... at least on one level. To begin with, Mozilla Firefox still works just fine... but the problem is, Internet Explorer does not - it says addresses like Google can't be found, and other downloads, like say a version of AIM, do not work. Unfortunately, when I ran Spybot again it detected no problems, so I tried to find out what was wrong. All I have are the Network Diagnostics from IE.

Last diagnostic run time: 12/19/06 16:05:14 WinSock Diagnostic
WinSock status

info Error attmpting to validate the Winsock base providers: 2

Can anybody help me, please?
 
Hi Mystrohan and welcome to Safer Networking Forums :)

Let's see...

Please post a HijackThis log to here:
  • Click here to download HijackThis.exe
  • Save HijackThis.exe to your desktop.
  • Create a new folder named HijackThis to your desktop. Move Hijackthis.exe into that folder.
  • Run HijackThis.exe
  • Click on the Do a system scan and save a log file button. It will scan and then ask you to save the log.
  • Click Save to save the log file and then the log will open in notepad.
  • Click on "Edit > Select All" then click on "Edit > Copy" to copy the entire contents of the log.
  • Come back here to this thread and Paste the log in your next reply.
  • DO NOT have Hijack This fix anything yet. Most of what it finds will be harmless or even required.
 
Hey, thanks for replying so fast!

Problem is, when I clicked the HijackThis Link, my McAfee deleted the download due to this reason:

The file C:\Program Files\HijackThis.exe was infected the the W32/Generic.worm!p2p virus and has been deleted to complete the Clean process.

Should I disable the VirusScan?
 
Never mind, I got it to work. Here is the log:

Hi, good work :)

You got some infections there...

Create a new folder for HijackThis and move HijackThis.exe into it.

Rename HijackThis.exe to Scanner.exe

1. Download this file - combofix.exe
2. Double click combofix.exe & follow the prompts.
3. When finished, it shall produce a log for you. Post that log in your next reply along with a fresh HijackThis (scanner.exe) log

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

:bigthumb:
 
First- The ComboFix log.

Hi again!

The reason this post took so long to come is because suddenly my Firefox went offline as well. I don't know why, but suddenly today (rather, 30 minutes ago) my Internet Explorer started working again, and I have no idea what to make of it. Anyways, here's the AVG log - there are two of em'.

Hi again :)

One or more of the identified infections had the ability to steal information. If this system is used for online banking or has credit card information on it, all passwords should be changed immediately. Banking and credit card institutions, if any, should be notified of the possible security breech. I suggest that you read this article too.

Delete this folder:
C:\WINDOWS\T3duZXI

Please do an online scan with Kaspersky WebScanner

Click on Kaspersky Online Scanner

You will be promted to install an ActiveX component from Kaspersky, Click Yes.
  • The program will launch and then begin downloading the latest definition files:
  • Once the files have been downloaded click on NEXT
  • Now click on Scan Settings
  • In the scan settings make that the following are selected:
    • Scan using the following Anti-Virus database:
    • Extended (if available otherwise Standard)
    • Scan Options:
    • Scan Archives
      Scan Mail Bases
  • Click OK
  • Now under select a target to scan:
    • Select My Computer
  • This will program will start and scan your system.
  • The scan will take a while so be patient and let it run.
  • Once the scan is complete it will display if your system has been infected.
    • Now click on the Save as Text button:
  • Save the file to your desktop.
  • Copy and paste that information in your next post.
 
Bad news... both my browsers don't want to work now, so I am typing this from a different computer. It seems that Kasperky won't work. Anything else I can do?
 
Hi :)

So you can't access the internet ?

Please try this WinsockXPFix
Program. Move it to the computer that has problems. Run it and hit "Fix"
Reboot and see if you can access the internet.

Let me know :bigthumb:
 
Hmm okay...

So the browsers just suddenly died ? Are you sure that your internet connections is ok ? Have you contacted your Internet Service Provider ?

Are you sure that your ZoneAlarm firewall is configured right ?

Let me know :bigthumb:
 
Well, according to the wireless indicator, I'm connected. I thought the connection might be faulty on the other side, but apparently not so, because the computer I'm typing from is connected the same way. I did try contacting the ISP, but as far as they can see, nothing's wrong. Is it possible that something I deleted might have deleted my ability to talk to the DNS server?
 
Ok hmm we need more information.

Please download WinPFind2.
  • Extract the files to a folder(eg: C:\WinPFind2).
  • Double click WinPFind2.exe to start the program.
  • Click the Select All button in the File Options box of the Configuration tab(this is the tab the program opens up to by default).
  • Click the Run all Scans button.
  • When its finished scanning you will see Scans Complete! at the bottom left of the program.
  • Click the Export to Text button.
  • Notepad will open with the results of the scan and the log will be saved to the folder that you extracted the program to(C:\WinPFind2\WinPFind2.txt)
  • Post the log in your next reply please. You may need to split the log over a couple posts so that it doesn't get cut off. If so please use the [Start Post #1] and [Start Post #2] deliminators in the log to split the log up. Post also a fresh HijackThis log.

:bigthumb:
 
Sorry I've been absent so long - I've been very busy in NYC with no net access, and I've recently moved back to school. By the way, a network troubleshooter indicated that some COM port or something was disabled. Hope that's helpful, but I'll try and get the logs up tonight.
