Need help with Smitfraud-C. and clean-up...

OK...I hope I've hit all of the points above. The reason why I'm assuming that I still have some sort of issue is that each time I run Spybot (after checking for updates), I keep getting the same 4 instances reported at Smitfraud. This was what caused me to think that I had the initial problem. We cleanup some other things, but the 4 reports of Smitfraud are still beind detected by Spybot Search and Destroy.

I ran through the Smitfraudfix process again, per your recommendation above. I also ran another HJT scan and have posted the results below. Let me know what you think and if ther is anything that I can do to remove these 4 reports of Smitfraud....or anything else...that might be causing problems. Thanks!

Thanks for the feedback, as I said, we have had instances where bits and pieces remained in the registry and they can cause no problem since the program is gone, so here is what I need to know.
The reason why I'm assuming that I still have some sort of issue is that each time I run Spybot (after checking for updates), I keep getting the same 4 instances reported at Smitfraud
Not assuming anything, are you having any problems with malware now?
I ran through the Smitfraudfix process again, per your recommendation above.
Did SmitfraudFix SEARCH function locate any of the infections, could you post that report for me please.

Your HJT log ran here: Scan saved at 10:26:29 PM, on 8/28/2006 appears clean of malware.

Spybot does from time to time identify false positives, and in this case leftover stuff in the registry. Spybot has a function where you can tell it to ignore certain items, it puts them on a list and does not show them to you. If you do not know how to do this, you need to spend some time in your HELP file and the TUTORIAL.

If you are comfortable using regedit, you can edit them out of the registry (backup first) or I could provide you with a better editor (free) than regedit. If it were my computer and the items were causing no problems, I would ask Spybot to stop showing them to me and try not to get infected anymore.

Thanks
 
I don't belive that there is any malware in my system, and if things look good to you, then that would seem to confirm things. Things are running much better. I have posted the results of the Smitfraud search scan below:

Thanks what I think to, but we are a team. I will leave you with this information:
Here is some great information from Tony Klein, Texruss, ChrisRLG and Grinler to help you stay clean and safe online:

System Restore does not know the good files from the bad. In case bad stuff has gotten into your System Restore files, follow the instructions in this link to get clean System Restore files. Turn it off, reboot then turn it back on:
http://service1.symantec.com/SUPPORT/tsgeninfo.nsf/docid/2001111912274039?Open&src=sec_doc_nam

Run the computer for a day or two, and then if all is still running well, post to let me know, and I will ask tashi to close the topic at that time.

Thanks...Phil
 
As the problem appears to be resolved this topic has been archived.

If you need it re-opened please send me or your helper a private message (pm) and provide a link to the thread; this applies only to the original topic starter.

Glad we could help. :)
