Popups/Misc Problems

Hi.

First I would like to say that I ran a couple online scanners and had them clean up what they could, I also entered safe mode and ran SpyBot S&D. In addition to that, since the problems still didn't go away, I created a Boot CD and ran SpyBot S&D and AdAware and deleted everything it caught. Surprised to find that I still received a pop up! My computer used to be EXTREMELY slow while all this was going on, but it is speeding up a bit now after I did all that.. but I still think things are slowing it down, and I still got a pop up or so. I did disable a bunch of things in the startup tab in msconfig (I was getting paranoid) that looked suspicious and havn't had a popup yet. Here's my Hijack this log...

Any help after 12 hours of battling this would be VERY appreciated!! Thank you, I will respond quickly. You can guarantee it.

Again, thank you.
 
Just as a quick note to my previous post, I just received a few popups. The things I disabled must not have done the trick.

As for the popup ad, as much as I love my mother... I don't think I want to buy her flowers online. Sorry FTD.com. In one of the bottom parts it mentioned "Web Nexus", I think that's doing it. Perhaps others. There were a lot of problems, including SurfSideKick 3 and some "Network" and "Command" thing. It all came at once, I am overloaded and exhausted... I am at a loss of what to do.
 
Welcome BlackMoon

  • Download Brute Force Uninstaller to your C:\
  • Unzip it to a folder of its own (C:\BFU). So BFU should be on your root. In most cases this is C:\
  • Download qoofix.bat (rightclick on this link and choose save as)
  • Place qoofix.bat in your C:\BFU - folder. (Important!)
  • Doubleclick qooFix.bat, Close all browsers and explorer folders.
  • Choose option 1 (Qoolfix autofix) and follow the prompts.
  • Please be patient, it will take about five minutes.

Launch Notepad (not wordpad), and copy and paste the contents of the code box below into a new text file.
Save it as file name: "fixme.reg" (not including the quotes). Save as file type: All files (*.*) and save it on your Desktop.
Code: 
REGEDIT4

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Windows]
"AppInit_DLLs"="iniwin32.dllxxx"

[-HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\CLSID\{3643ABC2-21BF-46B9-B230-F247DB0C6FD6}]

[-HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\Explorer\Run]
Now double-click on the fixme.reg file you saved and click on the Yes button when it asks if you would like to merge the information. Once you get a successful message delete fixme.reg.

Restart your PC.

Hi.

C:\Documents and Settings\BlackMoon3\My Documents\M?crosoft.NET\javaw.exe
C:\Documents and Settings\BlackMoon3\My Documents\oracle\w?auboot.exe

These didn't seem to exist. I didn't find any files in these folders, but I deleted both folders just to be safe.

C:\WINDOWS\cfg32p.dll
C:\WINDOWS\cfg32o.dll
c:\WINDOWS\ijbzpsvo.exe

I was also unable to find these, they may not be there.

The contents of:

C:\Program Files\common files\kuqq are:
"\kuqqa.lck" 0kb
"\kuqqh" 2kb
"\kuqql.lck" 0kb
"\kuqqm.lck" 0kb
"\kuqqd\class-barrel" 4.8mb
"\kuqqd\vocabulary" 1.2mb
Click to expand...

I don't know what any of that is. I have left it alone for now.

The contents of:
C:\windows\kuqq are:
"\kuqq.dat" 3kb
"\wu" 150kb
Click to expand...

And c:\windows\QmxhY2tNb29u did not exist (First I looked, then did a search)

Here is my Hijack log. So far so good, speed is good and havn't had a pop up, yet.

I deleted the two folders you mentioned. I found the hidden folder, it was empty, so I deleted it as well. I ran S&D and it found some things like Zenosearch and Hotbarsearch (or something), it was able to supposedly clean everything. I ran a full system scan with XoftSpy, it found nothing. I ran full system scan with AdAware, it found and got rid of the following:

I followed all that up with another S&D which found nothing. Despite those things being found in Adaware/S&D, computer seems to be running decent. Here is another logfile after I removed all that.

I installed many of the various programs mentioned in that article, including ZoneAlarm and AVG. I also followed your directions with the system restore. I did do an AVG scan and it found some viruses associated with what I have been trying to fight. Scans now come up clean and things seem nice, thank you.
 
I wrote something in Microsoft Word then copied and went to paste it in a new email in Outlook Express when this error came up.

"Your current security settings prohibit running ActiveX controls on this page. As a result, the page may not display correctly."

Then, I don't know if this is a direct correlation to the error-- I emailed what appeared to be a normally spaced email to somebodies hotmail account, who when they received it looked as if there were two or even three returns after each paragraph. Testing further, if I made it so there's no spacing between paragraph in the email I sent, it then looked normal to them. Testing even further, if I create a new email and just type it (No copy/paste) and type it what appears normally to me, it appears normal to them. That leads me to conclude the spacing has a direct correlation with the error above.

How can I fix this? The only ActiveX things I changed was in the guide, I set the two things to "prompt" in Internet Explorer --> Internet Options --> Security
 
You could Experiment by changing one setting at a time back to the way it was untill there is no OE problem.. ;)

I keep ours at
Run activex controls and plugins
x enable
script activex controls marked safe for scripting
x enable

But then we do not visit un-known websites
 
As the problem appears to be resolved this topic will be archived.
If you need it re-opened please send me a pm and provide a link to the thread.
