Slow computer, popups, IE lockup, Ad-aware lockup

Try running Ad-Aware until you have only around a 100 problems (any place less than were it hangs). Then stop it and fix the current list. Then start it again and try similar steps. The VX2 cleaner plugin is listed in the READ ME FIRST. The download link tells you how to install it. If you cannot get Ad-Aware to complete, skip it and continue (by the way, are you in safe mode?).

 

You could have just ended the gjfdrjn.exe process using Task Manager and then have Trend delete the file if it could. That process may have renamed itself by now. What you should do is just complete all steps in the READ ME FIRST. I am going to include it in the steps below. Pleae follow the below steps completely to the end. If you have any problems along the way, just note them and continue. Report them when you come back.


- download Nail/Bolder/Aurora Remover 0.3.1 Beta and save it to its own folder like c:\ABIremover

- Now extract the abiremover.exe file from the ZIP file into the folder you created but do not run the EXE yet. We will run it later.

- Run ALL the steps in this Sticky thread READ ME FIRST BEFORE ASKING FOR SUPPORT: Basic Spyware, Trojan And Virus Removal

Make sure you check version numbers and get all updates for all programs.

- Now while still in safe mode, run the abiremover.exe but make sure you are physically disconnected from the internet (unplug your cable to be sure). Just click install, wait (explorer window will disapear)

- When abiremover finishes just reboot into normal and continue with the below steps.


Also download HOSTER and then follow the below steps.

• Unzip Hoster to a convenient folder such as C:\Hoster

• Run Hoster.exe, click Restore Original Hosts and then click OK.
• Click the X to exit the program

- Very Important: Make sure you tell us the results from running the tutorial...was anything found? Were you unable to complete any of the scans?...Were you unable to download any of the tools?...Did you do the on-line scans as suggested? etc.



After doing ALL of the above you still have a problem make sure you have booted to normal mode and run the steps below:

- Download HijackThis 1.99.1

- Unzip the hijackthis.exe file to a folder you create named C:\Program Files\HJT

- Do NOT run Hijack This from the Desktop, a temp folder, or a sub-folder of C:\Documents and Settings, or choose to run it directly from the downloaded ZIP file.

- Before running HijackThis: You must close each of the following:your web browser, e-mail client, instant messenger, and programs like notepad, wordpad, MS Word etc. And any other unnecessary running programs.

- Run HijackThis and save your log file.

- Post your log as an ATTACHMENT to your next message. (Do NOT copy/paste the log into your post).

 

You need to complete ALL the steps that I gave you!

 

I need you to run ALL steps in the READ ME FIRST. You did not. At a minimum, I can see the online scanners were not run. Anything else not run? Perhaps part of the problem here is that you waited 3 months to respond. The READ ME FIRST has changed and so have the require online scanners. And in 3 months you would have to re-run the whole READ ME FIRST anyway since all the tool have gone thru many updates.

Also you did not install HJT properly. You have it here:

C:\DOCUME~1\DANIEL~1\LOCALS~1\Temp\Temporary Directory 1 for hijackthis.zip\HijackThis.exe

That means you are running it from the ZIP file. Please read and follow the directions.

Also goto Add/Remove programs and uninstall WeatherBug.
