Problem with spontaneous browser windows opening

Welcome to Majorgeeks!

You have a few infections! Let's start with the Qoologic infection!

Please run this: Qoologic Removal Procedure

Then run the below!

Now run the below procedure and attach the runkeys.txt log.

• Using GetRunKey

Now run the below procedure and attach the newfiles.txt log.

• Using ShowNew

Now attach a new HJT log too.

 

Please downloadThe Avenger by Swandog46 to your Desktop.

• Double click on Avenger.zip to open the file and extract avenger.exe to your Desktop
• Copy the below quoted text (which is a script for Avenger) into your clipboard by highlighting it and pressing
  CTRL+C

• Now, run The Avenger program by double clicking its icon on your Desktop.
• Under "Script file to execute" choose "Input Script Manually".
• Now click on the Magnifying Glass icon which will open a new window titled "View/edit script"
• Paste the text copied to clipboard into this window by pressing (Ctrl+V).
• Click Done
• Now click on the Green Light to begin execution of the script
• Answer "Yes" twice when prompted.

The Avenger will automatically do the following:

• It will Restart your computer. (When the script being executed contains "Drivers to Unload",
  The Avenger will actually reboot your system two times.)
• On reboot, it will briefly open a black command window on your desktop, this is normal.
• After the reboot, it creates a log file that should open with the results of Avenger’s actions. This log
  file will be located at C:\avenger.txt
• The Avenger will also have backed up all the files, etc., that you asked it to delete, and will have zipped
  them and moved the zip archives to C:\avenger\backup.zip.

Please attach the c:\avenger.txt file to your next message.

Now Copy the bold text below to notepad. Save it as fixme.reg to your desktop. Be sure the "Save as" type is set to "all files" Once you have saved it double click it and allow it to merge with the registry.

Now make sure viewing of hidden files is enabled (per the tutorial).

Run HijackThis and select the following lines but DO NOT CLICK FIX until you exit all browser sessions including the one you are reading in right now:
O2 - BHO: IEHooks Class - {00000000-0000-0000-0000-000000000240} - C:\Program Files\ClearSearch\IE_ClrSch.DLL (file missing)

O18 - Filter: text/html - {F8D76886-FA88-4DF6-8FBD-C02CF8C91C94} - C:\WINNT\system32\ubbv.dll


After clicking Fix, exit HJT.
Boot into safe mode and use Windows Explorer to delete:
C:\Program Files\Inet Delivery <-- the whole folder
C:\Program Files\ClearSearch <-- the whole folder
C:\Program Files\Common Files\{70D599FA-04AC-1033-0301-040001} <-- the whole folder

If you get an error when deleting a file. Right click on the file and check to see if the read only attribute is checked. If it is, uncheck it and try again. Other wise open Task Manager and kill the process if running then delete the file.

Now if running Win XP goto c:\windows\Prefetch and delete all files in this folder.
Now run Ccleaner (installed while running the READ ME FIRST).


Now we need to Reset Web Settings:

1. If you have an Internet Explorer icon on your Desktop, goto step 2. If not, skip to step 3.
2. Now right click on your desktop Internet Explorer icon and select Properties. Then click the Programs tab and then click "Reset Web Settings". Now go back to the General tab and set your home page address to something useful like www.majorgeeks.com. Click Apply. Click Delete Cookies, Click Delete Files and select Delete all Offline content too, Click OK. When it finishes Click OK. Then skip step 3.
3. If you do not have an Internet Explorer icon on your Desktop, click Start, Control Panel (for some systems it may be Start, Settings, Control Panel), Internet Options, Programs tab and then click "Reset Web Settings". Now go back to the General tab and set your home page address to something useful like www.majorgeeks.com. Click Apply. Click Delete Cookies, Click Delete Files and select Delete all Offline content too, Click OK. When it finishes Click OK.

Now reboot in normal mode and post a new HJT log.

Also download the latest version of ShowNew (it has changed since you last used it) and attach a new log.

Make sure you tell me how things are working now.

Reminder Note: Once we have determined you are malware free you will need to disable System Restore, reboot, and re-enable system restore per step 1 of the READ & RUN ME. This only applies to if using WinXP or WinMe.

 

Please run this Running Ewido Anti-Malware and attach the Ewido log.

 

Do you use Scotia OnLine Recovery? I'm referring to the below line:


O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [USPTO Direct Recovery] "C:\Program Files\USPTO\etdirrcv.exe"


Which may or may not be this: http://www.castlecops.com/s3229-etdirrcv_exe.html

You tell me if it is something you know and use.

 

Your log is clean. If you are not having any other malware problems, you should work thru the below link:

How to Protect yourself from malware!

 

You're welcome. Surf safely!
