"Extra removal instructions: You will need to use the process explorer: http://www.sysinternals.com/Utilities/ProcessExplorer.html
There you need to right click on "Winlogon.exe" and choose "properties..."
Then you will have to go to the "Threads" tab, there you will see the dll with the randomized filename, it is the same name as in the Spybot scanresult.
Choose and kill the dll, it is running 2 times. After that you will need to reboot to have Spybot remove the dll from the System."

Spybot detected this spyware- smitfraudc and gave these additional instructions.
I downloade process explorer and opened properties of winlogon.exe , went to Threads option. But after this i cant find the dll.

I am using win xp medicentre service pack2, 256 mb ram. I use Avg Free, Spybot and Zonealarm pro. I use only firefox and havent really faced any spyware problem till now. although my computer recently recovered from some display device error which is alright now (my engineer told me it was because of a heavy graphics game which overloaded my ram).


Now i want to get this smitfraud removed. guys pls tell me what should i do. what is the meaning of the above instruction

Ok, let's do this:

Backup your registry:
  • Start
  • Run
  • Type the following to the box and hit Ok: regedit
  • A window opens, click on File
  • Choose Export form the menu
  • Change the save location to C:\
  • Give the filename, RegBackUp
  • Make sure that the filetype is set to Registryfiles (*.reg)
  • Click on Save and Close the window

Open Notepad (NOT WORDPAD!) and copy the following lines from the quote box below into a new document, leaving a blank line at the end. (don't forget to copy and paste the word REGEDIT4) :

REGEDIT4

[-HKEY_USERS\S-1-5-21-2052111302-562591055-839522115-1003\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Ext\Stats\{B64F4A7C-97C9-11DA-8BDE-F66BAD1E3F3A}]
Click to expand...
Make sure there are NO blank lines before REGEDIT4
Make sure there IS one blank line at the end of the file.

Save the document to your desktop as Fix.reg and filetype: All Files
Go to your desktop and double click on the file to run Fix.reg and when it asks you if you want to merge the contents to the registry, click yes/ok.

Restart the computer.

Scn again with Spybot S&D. Still finding it ?
 
Hi again, it is looking clean then :)

Now you can enable Spybot S&D Teatimer again.
  • Run Spybot-S&D in Advanced Mode
  • If it is not already set to do this, go to the Mode menu select "Advanced Mode"
  • On the left hand side, click on Tools
  • Then click on the Resident icon in the list
  • Check "Resident TeaTimer" and OK any prompts.
  • Restart your computer

Now you can clean AVG's Quarantine:
  • Open AVG Anti-Spyware
  • Click Infections
  • Click Quarantine tab
  • Click Select all
  • Click Remove finally
  • Close the program
You can remove the tools we used.

=============

Now that you seem to be clean, please follow these simple steps in order to keep your computer clean and secure:
  • Clear your system restore
    This will clear the system restore folders from possible malware that was left behind during the cleaning process.
  • Use ATF Cleaner
    Download and install ATF Cleaner. Clean your temporary files & folders with it regularly.
  • Use Ad-Aware
    Download and install Ad-Aware. Update it and scan your computer regularly with it.
  • Use AVG Anti-Spyware
    Update it and scan your computer regularly with it.
  • Use Spybot S&D
    Download and install Spybot S&D. Update it and scan your computer regularly with it.
  • Install SpywareBlaster
    SpywareBlaster will prevent spyware from being installed.
  • Install MVPS Hosts file
    This prevents your computer from connecting to harmful sites.
  • Use Firefox browser
    Firefox is faster, safer and better browser than Internet Explorer.
  • Keep your systen up-to-date
    Visit Windows Update regularly.
  • Keep your antivirus and firewall up-to-date
    Scan your computer regularly with your antivirus.
  • Read this article by TonyKlein
    So how did I get infected in the first place?
  • Stand Up and Be Counted !
    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.

Stay clean and be safe ;)
