Starware Infection. Help please!

Hello. I am brand new to this, and have a Starware infection which all usual sources are neither detecting nor removing, including Spybot, AdAware, Ewido, Microsoft Malware Removal Tool or Ntl Netguard. I am getting popups and redirection of homepage, and intermittent IE failure. My computer has also slowed down noticeably. I would appreciate any advice/assistance. Ta.
I am in Scotland, if that is of the slightest interest!
 
Thanks for the prompt reply. Sorry to be so dense, but I don't understand 'Pinned'. Where should I be looking?
I have followed the 2 links. They seem to be asking me to check if I have installed Windows XP SP2 - I have, and use Automatic Update setting, so I think that is ok. I have previously run Spybot in Safe Mode, but still have the Starware infection. Should I now run the HijackThis log and should I post it in this thread or start a new one? I really appreciate your help.

Thanks Phil. I hope I have done as instructed and here is the HiJack This log. Due to size, the Panda Scan log will be a seperate post. I hope this is what you need. I have also done another Spybot Scan in Safe mode, but it only picked up some cookies.

Thanks.

OK and thanks for the feedback, it really helps to have it. Before I start I need to make sure you are running only one antivirus program. I see eTrust Internet Security Suite and ntl Netguard. If I am wrong that is fine, but this is what Symantec:
http://service1.symantec.com/SUPPORT/nav.nsf/docid/2000031316555206 and Microsoft say about this:
"Microsoft recommends that you have only one anti-virus program installed on your computer."

This program > C:\Program Files\Enigma Software Group\SpyHunter\SpyHunter.exe I suggest you remove it, I just do not trust it and can give you much better free programs.

You also have remnants of a LOP/C2 Media infection, let's hope we can remove the balance manually.

Open HijackThis and choose "Do a system scan only" then check the box in front of these line items:

R3 - Default URLSearchHook is missing
O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [71a680qf] C:\Program Files\71a680qf\71a680qf.exe

Close all programs but HJT and all browser windows, then click on "Fix Checked"

Enable hidden files&folders..reverse the process when finished.
http://www.xtra.co.nz/help/0,,4155-1916458,00.html

RIGHT Click on Start then click on Explore. Locate and delete these items:

C:\Program Files\71a680qf\ <<< folder

C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\BOOK EGGS BIND BIRD\ <<< folder

C:\Program Files\Enigma Software Group\ <<< folder

C:\Windows\Prefetch\ >>> delete the contents (NOT THE FOLDER)
Prefetch info: http://www.windowsnetworking.com/articles_tutorials/Gaining-Speed-Empty-Prefetch-XP.html

If you don't have a good cleaner, use this free one with these instructions:
Download CCleaner from this link: http://www.ccleaner.com/ Review the instructions http://www.ccleaner.com/help/tour1.asp

You have ewido open the program and choose update, allow time for it to finish. Now click scanner then complete system scan. Allow ewido to remove anything it locates unless you know it is not bad. Save that scan report, I must see it.

Restart the computer and post the ewido scan results, a new HJT log and any comments you think will help. How is the computer running now.

Thanks...Phil
 
Hello again Phil. I am pretty sure I'm not running eTrust Pest Patrol. I've tried to delete it in Add/Remove programs, but it tells me I have insufficient priveleges and to log on as Admonistrator; I am, of course, an Administrator. Any advice? Also, I can't find Spyhunter in Add/Remove or in the All Programs list. I'll carry out the other instructions and post them shortly. Ta. Jim
 
OK Jim, finish with the instructions and we will remove the rest manually.
I am pretty sure I'm not running eTrust Pest Patrol
Click to expand...
Jim, you have to be positive, and tell me you want it removed, pretty sure will not do it.

Thanks...Phil
 
Hi Phil. I meant I'm not sure it's running - cos I'm a bit dim; but yes I definitely want to remove it. Here's the Ewido log, and the Hijack This will follow.
The folder C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\BOOK EGGS BIND BIRD\ could not be removed. I got an error message:
Cannot delete DartHeckStop. It is being used by another person or program. Of course, it was not!
I also ran both the Cleaner and Issues function of CCleaner, and backed up the Registry Changes. Hope that was ok. I have noticed at restart that a lot of crap that had invaded the Favourites menu in IE have gone. Finally, when closing, I am getting a brief 'End Program' message that a program called UiPopUpHidden is not closing, but the message disappears before I can take any action.
HiJackThis log to follow. Thanks again.

Phil. I meant I wasn't sure if I was running the program - cos I'm a bit dim - but I certainly do want to remove it.
I couldn't delete the BOOK EGGS BIND BIRD folder; the error message told me DartHeckStop was in use by another person or program; it wasn't.
I also ran the Cleaner and Issues functions and backed up the Registry Changes. trust this was what you meant
I have also noted that, on closing down windows, I am seeing a brief flash of an End Program message which refers to UiPopUpHidden. It closes without any action from me.
I attach the Ewido scan and will post the Hijack This log shortly.
Many Thanks
Jim

Here's the Hijack This log.
My computer seems to be running a good bit faster now; IE is certainly loading faster. I cannot thank you enough for your efforts to date and will await your further advice. Jim

Hi Jim, thanks for the feedback. It looks like the LOP item is gone, probably removed by HJT. If you ever run into a a situsation where you can not delete a file that you know is bad, do it in safe mode:
http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/tutorials/tutorial61.html

Looking at your last log with the understanding that you want the remnants of: eTrust Internet Security Suite removed from the computer. If this is not the case, stop and make me aware.

Open HijackThis and choose "Do a system scan only" then check the box in front of these line items:

O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [CaISSDT] "C:\Program Files\CA\eTrust Internet Security Suite\caissdt.exe"

Close all programs but HJT and all browser windows, then click on "Fix Checked"

RIGHT Click on Start then click on Explore. Locate and delete these items:

C:\Program Files\CA\ <<< delete the folder
if you can't see the folder, you may have to enabled hidden files:

That should take care of the issue, since your HJT log is clean,
here is some great information from Tony Klein, Texruss, ChrisRLG and Grinler to help you stay clean and safe online:

ewido is a great program but it does use some resources. Once the trial is over you can update and use the scanner for as long as you wish, but unless you purchase it you should turn it off completely so it does not run unless you start it manually.

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:
