Secure32.html / Spyware & Trojans

Let's get an installed programs list from HijackThis too!

• Run HijackThis, click Open the Misc Tools section
• Click Open Uninstall Manager
• Click Save List (generates uninstall_list.txt)
• Click Save, to save it to a file where you can find it.
• Attach the uninstall_list.txt file to your next message.

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

Using GetRunKey

 

You should use Add/Remove programs to uninstall the below old version of Sun Java
Java 2 Runtime Environment, SE v1.4.2_03

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.

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:
R1 - HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main,Default_Page_URL = c:\secure32.html
R0 - HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main,Start Page = c:\secure32.html
R1 - HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main,Default_Page_URL = c:\secure32.html
R0 - HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main,Start Page = c:\secure32.html
R0 - HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main,Local Page = c:\secure32.html
R0 - HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main,Local Page = c:\secure32.html
R3 - Default URLSearchHook is missing
O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [SysTray] C:\Program Files\ygdw.exe
O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [0mcamcap] C:\WINDOWS\system32\0mcamcap.exe
O4 - HKLM\..\RunServices: [0mcamcap] C:\WINDOWS\system32\0mcamcap.exe
O20 - Winlogon Notify: xptptt - xptptt.dll (file missing)

After clicking Fix, exit HJT.
Boot into safe mode and use Windows Explorer to delete (some or many of these may not be found, just continue)
C:\Documents and Settings\Wusski\Local Settings\Temp <--- delete all files in this Temp folder
C:\Documents and Settings\Wusski\Start Menu\Programs\AdwarePunisher
C:\Documents and Settings\Wusski\Start Menu\Programs\RemedyAntispy
C:\Documents and Settings\Wusski\Start Menu\Programs\SpyGuard
C:\Program Files\sbl\dialers\sexy_blondes\sexy_blondes.exe <--- delete the whole sbl folder
C:\Program Files\AdwarePunisher <--- delete the whole folder
C:\Program Files\RemedyAntispy <--- delete the whole folder
C:\Program Files\SpyGuard <--- delete the whole folder
C:\Program Files\ygdw.exe
c:\windows\system32\azebar.xml
C:\WINDOWS\system32\0mcamcap.exe
c:\windows\system32\winsrv32.exe
C:\WINDOWS\rfscanax.dll

Additional step to delete files in the Downloaded Program Files folder :
- Click Start, Run, and enter cmd in the box and click OK. This opens a command prompt windows.
- Enter the following command lines each followed by the enter key
cd C:\WINDOWS\Downloaded Program Files\
attrib -r -h -s azesearch.inf
del azesearch.inf
exit

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.

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.

 

Why didn't you do this as instructed before attaching your HJT log. You log still showed the below:

Are those lines all fixed now?

You should post a message on this in the Software Forum. It looks like you have some installation that has failed or is corrupted or incomplete. That is probably why the installed shows as running:
C:\WINDOWS\system32\msiexec.exe


If those secure32.html lines are gone, then your log is clean. If you are not having any other malware problems, it is time to go back to step 1 of the READ & RUN ME to Disable System Restore which will flush your Restore Points. Then reboot and enable System Restore to create a new clean Restore Point.

After that, you should work thru the below link:

How to Protect yourself from malware!

 

You're welcome and thanks for the additional info on having to redo the IE settings. Perhaps one of the antispyware programs was getting in the way. This happens quite often because the are blocking changes. Even changes you make are blocked. They typically will inform you have an attempted change and ask permission (at least for start and search pages they do).


Surf safely.

 

Post a log from Norton that tells exactly what it is finding and where it is finding it.

One of the sticky threads is a tutorial on HijackThis but you must remember that HijackThis is not a spyware scanner and it does not show all possible malware issues on a PC. That is why we use it last and require all the other tools to be run first.
