Try this first, see if it helps.

Be sure to run in Safe Mode and read the READ ME.

 

when you press ctrl+alt+delete, do you see it in your task manager?

if you do, end the process, then search for it with search, then delete it. that may work

Your Welcome

Glad you got it all fixed. You should check this out now: How to Protect yourself from malware!

Turn System Restore OFF and then once everything seems OK be sure to turn System restore back on. You need to get rid of any archived saves that may have the malware.

Re: need help with srv32.exe

Go to Symantec for the tool.

Virus Remover

 

well I did all that but my virus protection keeps bringing up some viruses :
srv32.exe and LSASS do you know anything about this? Just taking a chance you might ...

Thanks for all your help

Please keep all your posts to one thread. I gave you the removal tool in the other thread.

 

Just wanted to say thanks for helping me out today, My computer works better then I have ever seen it. I did everything you told me so should be good to go! Thanks again

Your Welome be sure to immunize like I said in previous post.

 

well I guess it didn't get rid of this lsass it keeps coming up in my virus program?

Betsy

 

Do another HJT log and submit it.

Also where is the lsass.exe file located?

 

Lsass.exe is a valid file but can also be a worm. Go here lsass.exe check and type in lsass.exe in the search box. Look to see if any of those processes show up in your process list. Let us know.

You could go here w32.sasser.removal.tool.html]W32.worm Removal tool[/B] and use their tool to be safe.

 

Sorry, the link I put in before seems bad. Use this one.

Symantec Removal Tool

 

Edit by chaslang:


Please leave the job of spyware removal to the experts!

While Avast is a good antivirus program, it has its limitations too like all AV programs. In addition, like most AV programs it does not focus on adware and spyware problems.

Thanks!

 

I asked her in #14 to submit a log. I saw that the lsass.exe could be a W32 so I thought it wouldn't hurt to run it.

 

Your right. Guess I got sidetracked with the first removal tool.

The 3 most important things.

Procedure, procedure, procedure... or is that location, location, location. I may be getting mixed up now. LOL

 

My, my you are the witty one - aren't you!!
