Now that you are clean, please follow these simple steps in order to keep your computer clean and secure:

Next we remove all used tools.

• Double-click OTMoveIt3.exe.
• Click the CleanUp! button.
• Select Yes when the "Begin cleanup Process?" prompt appears.
• If you are prompted to Reboot during the cleanup, select Yes.
• The tool will delete itself once it finishes, if not delete it by yourself.

Note: If you receive a warning from your firewall or other security programs regarding OTCleanIt attempting to contact the internet, please allow it to do so.

You can also remove RSIT.exe, you will find it on your desktop.

Looking over your log, it seems you don't have any evidence of a third party firewall.

As the term conveys, a firewall is an extra layer of security installed onto computers, which restricts access to systems from the outside world. Firewalls protect against hackers and malicious intruders. I want you to download a free firewall NOW from one of these excellent vendors:

1) Comodo (Uncheck during installation "Install COMODO Antivirus (Recommended)"!, "Install Comodo SafeSurf..", Make Comodo my default search provider" and "Make Comodo Search my homepage")
2) Online Armor
3) PC Tools
4) Sunbelt/Kerio
5) ZoneAlarm (uncheck ZoneAlarm Spy Blocker during installation if you choose this one)

If you are using the built-in Windows XP firewall, it is not recommended as it does not block outgoing connections. This means that any malware on your computer is free to "phone home" for more instructions. Simply put, Windows XP contains a mediocre firewall. This firewall is NO replacement for a dedicated software solution. Remember to use only one firewall at the same time.

Re-enable Teatimer...

1. Go to Start > All Programs > Spybot - Search & Destroy > Spybot Search & Destroy.
2. On the left hand side, click on Tools.
3. Check (tick) this box: Resident "TeaTimer" (Protection of over-all system settings) active.
4. Exit Spybot Search & Destroy.
5. Restart your computer for the changes to take effect.

• Disable and Enable System Restore. - If you are using Windows XP or Vista then you should disable and re-enable system restore to make sure there are no infected files found in a restore point.
  
  You can find instructions on how to enable and re-enable system restore here:
  
  Windows XP System Restore Guide
  
  Re-enable system restore with instructions from tutorial above
  
  • Make your Internet Explorer more secure - This can be done by following these simple instructions:
  • From within Internet Explorer click on the Tools menu and then click on Options.
  • Click once on the Security tab
  • Click once on the Internet icon so it becomes highlighted.
  • Click once on the Custom Level button.
  • Change the Download signed ActiveX controls to Prompt
    
  • Change the Download unsigned ActiveX controls to Disable
    
  • Change the Initialize and script ActiveX controls not marked as safe to Disable
    
  • Change the Installation of desktop items to Prompt
    
  • Change the Launching programs and files in an IFRAME to Prompt
    
  • Change the Navigate sub-frames across different domains to Prompt
    
  • When all these settings have been made, click on the OK button.
    
  • If it prompts you as to whether or not you want to save the settings, press the Yes button.
  • Next press the Apply button and then the OK to exit the Internet Properties page.
  • Update your AntiVirus Software and keep your other programs up-to-date
    Update your Antivirus programs and other security products regularly to avoid new threats that could infect your system.
    You can use one of these sites to check if any updates are needed for your pc.
    Secunia Software Inspector
    F-secure Health Check
    
    
  • Visit Microsoft's Windows Update Site Frequently - It is important that you visit http://www.windowsupdate.com regularly. This will ensure your computer has always the latest security updates available installed on your computer. If there are new updates to install, install them immediately, reboot your computer, and revisit the site until there are no more critical updates.
    
    
  • Install Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware - Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware is a new and powerful anti-malware tool. It is
    totally free but for real-time protection you will have to pay a small one-time fee. Tutorial on installing & using this product can be found below:
    
    Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware Setup Guide
    
    Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware Scanning Guide
    
    
  • Install SpywareBlaster - SpywareBlaster will added a large list of programs and sites into your Internet Explorer settings that will protect you from running and downloading known malicious programs.
    
    A tutorial on installing & using this product can be found here:
    
    Using SpywareBlaster to protect your computer from Spyware and Malware
    
    
  • Update all these programs regularly - Make sure you update all the programs I have listed regularly. Without regular updates you WILL NOT be protected when new malicious programs are released.
  Follow this list and your potential for being infected again will reduce dramatically.
  
  Here are some additional utilities that will enhance your safety
  
  • MVPS Hosts file <= The MVPS Hosts file replaces your current HOSTS file with one containing well know ad sites etc. Basically, this prevents your computer from connecting to those sites by redirecting them to 127.0.0.1 which is your local computer
  • Winpatrol <= Download and install the free version of Winpatrol. a tutorial for this product is located here:
    Using Winpatrol to protect your computer from malicious software

Stand Up and Be Counted ---> Malware Complaints <--- where you can make difference!

The site offers people who have been (or are) victims of malware the opportunity to document their story and, in that way, launch a complaint against the malware and the makers of the malware.

Also, please read this great article by Tony Klein So How Did I Get Infected In First Place

Happy surfing and stay clean!

A Zillion Thanks

Wow. This last set of instructions was a doozy!!

I am not sure whether I completed all of your steps correctly (for example, I thought Kaspersky was long gone from my system). But I have spent much of the past two days trying to follow your fixes. In the process, I learned that years of updating software has left my system burdened with prior outdated versions (e.g., Adobe Reader, AIM, Macromedia Flash). IMHO, vendors should remove outdated versions when you download their update!! I have found myself uninstalling the old plus the new and then reinstalling the new just to get clean (hopefully).

Out of an abundance of caution, here is a final HiJack This log. Just in case you spot something awful that still lurks or that I inadvertenly picked up in my efforts to clean up! Many many thanks. Happy, healthy holidays to you. Respun

Hi,

You have Viewpoint again in your computer, it will be reinstalled the next time you load AOL!. If you want to remove viewpoint ultimately as you have to disable all desktop and IM features associated with Viewpoint.

Step 1

Disable Teatimer...

1. Right click the Spybot Icon in the system tray near the clock (looks like a blue/white calendar with a padlock symbol).
2. Click once on Resident Protection, then right click the Spybot icon again and make sure Resident Protection is now Unchecked. The Spybot icon in the System tray should now be now colorless.
3. Go to Start > All Programs > Spybot - Search & Destroy > Spybot Search & Destroy.
4. Click on Mode > Advanced Mode. When it prompts you, click Yes.
5. On the left hand side, click on Tools.
6. Check (tick) this box if it is not yet ticked: Resident.
7. You will notice that Resident is now added under Tools. Click on Resident.
8. Uncheck (untick) this box: Resident "TeaTimer" (Protection of over-all system settings) active.
9. Exit Spybot Search & Destroy.
10. Restart your computer for the changes to take effect.

Step 2

Please remove via Add or Remove Programs (press Start -> Controlpanel -> Add or Remove Programs):
ZoneAlarm Spy Blocker

If you want to remove Viewpoint, then remove the following.
Viewpoint Manager
Viewpoint Media Player

If AOL is present, to prevent it from being recreated every time the AOL software is run:

• Open AOL
• Go to Help on the toolbar
• Select About AOL
• Hit Ctrl D and a secret panel can be accessed which will allow you to disable all desktop and IM features associated with Viewpoint.

Another way to prevent Viewpoint from being recreated every time the AOL software is run:

• Click C:\Program Files\AOL 9.0\Jiti (a hidden folder).
• Rename viewpoint.exe to viewpoint.old.

Step 3

Open HijackThis, press Do a system scan only, checkmark these entries:
O2 - BHO: AskBar BHO - {201f27d4-3704-41d6-89c1-aa35e39143ed} - C:\Program Files\AskBarDis\bar\bin\askBar.dll
O2 - BHO: (no name) - {7E853D72-626A-48EC-A868-BA8D5E23E045} - (no file)
O3 - Toolbar: ZoneAlarm Spy Blocker Toolbar - {3041d03e-fd4b-44e0-b742-2d9b88305f98} - C:\Program Files\AskBarDis\bar\bin\askBar.dll
Close all other windows including browser and press Fix checked.

Reboot the computer...

Step 4

Press Start -> My Computer -> Local Disk (C)
Locate the following folder using the path below. If found please delete.
C:\Program Files\AskBarDis

Step 5

Please post a fresh HijackThis log.

Hello!

Do you still need help?

It has been three days since my last post.

Do you still need help with this?
Do you need more time?
Are you having problems following my instructions?

Note: If after 48hrs you have not replied to this thread then it will have to be CLOSED!

 

[tashi]

FYI to all members.

5) Final Run:
Towards the end of a cleanup please make sure you follow through with any final log requested even if it appears to you that your computer is back to normal operation.
As much as we like our members we would rather not see you back in a few weeks because there was no follow up with the helper.
