Help remove popups - Please!

I am trying to check with hijackthis but a windows appeared telling me: Zip file is damaged, truncated, or has been changed since it was created. If you downloaded this file, try downloading again.

Do I click "ok" I guess this is coming from the last manipulation ....when I was asking to replace it.....and click yes.....

What do I do now?
 
Hi

Try this:

Please download HijackThis to your desktop. (rightclick on this link and choose save as, if using IE save target as)
  • Right click the HijackThis folder on your desktop, and choose Extract All
  • Click "Next"
  • In the box to choose where to extract the files to,
  • Click "Browse"
  • Click on the + sign next to "My Computer"
  • Click on "Local Disk (C: ) or whatever your primary drive is
  • Click "Make New Folder"
  • Type in HijackThis
  • Click "Next", and Uncheck the "Show Extracted Files" box and then click "Finish".

HijackThis should be now on C:\HijackThis folder :)
 
well....it is installed on my hard drive c:
and the new Hijackthis log shows C:\DOCUME~1\COLETT~1\LOCALS~1\Temp\HijackThis.exe

Should I checked it and press "fix checked"?

I'll be waiting for an answer and then proceed with Kaspersky Scanner...

Many thanks....
 
Not lucky....the kaspersky launched and started to download but after a while I got this message:

Failed to load Kaspersky Online Scanner ActiveX control!

You must have administrative rights on this computer;
you also must have the IE security settings to the Medium level.

Exit
 
Hi

Let's try this then:

Please print these instructions out, or write them down, as you can't read them during the fix.

Please download MWav:
  • Unzip it to its predetermined directory (C:\Kaspersky)
  • Locate kavupd.exe in the new folder and double-click to Update.
  • If your firewall gives any messages about this program accessing to internet, allow it.
  • If it says the signatures are more than 30 days old, keep trying, until you get the actual definition updates.
  • When you see Updates Downloaded Successfully, hit Enter to continue.
  • Restart onto Safe Mode and locate the Kaspersky folder.
  • Locate mwavscan.com and double-click on it to launch the MWAV Scanner.
Now lets do the settings:
  • Leave the Default Settings checked.
  • Add a check to Drives
  • This will light up All Drives
  • Add a check to Scan all Files
  • Click Scan Clean to begin.
This scan might take around 3+ hours to finish when set to scan everything.
  • Please be sure it has finished before proceeding.
  • Once the Scan has finished, all entries identified as Infected, will be displayed in the lower panel.
  • Highlight everything that is inside the lower panel and hit Ctrl+C at the same time to copy.
  • Open an empty notepad file and paste the results (Ctrl+V) to it. Save the notepad to your desktop, name it as you want (e.g; MWav Results).
Reboot into normal Windows and post the results here along with a fresh HijackThis log.
 
Shaba ...sorry....but right down the failed message there was a box asking me to install ActiveX control...I clicked on it and now it seems to work.....got confused because of the blocked popup just under the internet menu bar.....right now it is downloading and installing the latest Kaspersky Anti-Virus Databases ...and I am scanning as I am writting down this post...I'll let it scan and come back with the results.

Let's keep going;)

I am very very very happy so far.....my computer runs faster and I don't have those popups anymore.....hope it stays that way.....
 
Hi

Then I guess you're clean :bigthumb:

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

Go here and download and install JRE 6.0. Click the link that says Download JRE 6.0 . You will then need to select Accept License Agreement and click the Continue button that is beside it. Then click the link that says Windows Offline Installation, Multi-language. Save it to your Desktop. Then go back to your Desktop and double click jre-6-windows-i586.exe to start the install. Once you have it installed, click Start>Run, type in appwiz.cpl and hit Enter. From the list, uninstall J2SE Runtime Environment 5.0 Update 4.

I see no firewall on your log. If you use Windows own firewall, I recommend to get a better free one. See "Understanding and Using Firewall" below for more info

  • Disable and Enable System Restore. - If you are using Windows XP 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 reenable system restore here:

    Windows XP System Restore Guide

Reenable 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.
  • Use an AntiVirus Software - It is very important that your computer has an anti-virus software running on your machine. This alone can save you a lot of trouble with malware in the future.

See this link for a listing of some online & their stand-alone antivirus programs:

Virus, Spyware, and Malware Protection and Removal Resources


  • Update your AntiVirus Software - It is imperitive that you update your Antivirus software at least once a week (Even more if you wish). If you do not update your antivirus software then it will not be able to catch any of the new variants that may come out.

  • Use a Firewall - I can not stress how important it is that you use a Firewall on your computer. Without a firewall your computer is succeptible to being hacked and taken over. I am very serious about this and see it happen almost every day with my clients. Simply using a Firewall in its default configuration can lower your risk greatly.

    For a tutorial on Firewalls and a listing of some available ones see the link below:

    Understanding and Using Firewalls

  • 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 Ad-Aware - Install and download Ad-Aware. ou should also scan your computer with program on a regular basis just as you would an antivirus software in conjunction with Spybot.

    A tutorial on installing & using this product can be found here:

    Using Ad-aware to remove Spyware, Malware, & Hijackers from Your Computer

  • Install Spybot - Search and Destroy - Install and download Spybot - Search and Destroy with its TeaTimer option.

    This will provide real-time spyware & hijacker protection on your computer alongside your virus protection. You should also scan your computer with program on a regular basis just as you would an anti virus software. A tutorial on installing & using this product can be found here:

    Instructions for - Spybot S & D and Ad-aware

  • 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

  • IE/Spyad <= IE/Spyad places over 4000 websites and domains in the IE Restricted list which will severely impair attempts to infect your system. It basically prevents any downloads (Cookies etc) from the sites listed, although you will still be able to connect to the sites.
  • MVPS Hosts file <= The MVPS Hosts file replaces your current HOSTS file with one containing well know ad sites etc. Basically, this prevents your coputer 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!
