updating problems and some http 404 problems

Welcome to Major Geeks!

Run C:\MGtools\analyse.exe by double clicking on it (Note: if using Vista, don't double click, use right click and select Run As Administrator). This is really HijackThis (select Do a system scan only) 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: (no name) - {02478D38-C3F9-4efb-9B51-7695ECA05670} - (no file)
O16 - DPF: {30528230-99f7-4bb4-88d8-fa1d4f56a2ab} -

After clicking Fix, exit HJT.

Now we need to use ComboFix again.

• Make sure that combofix.exe that you downloaded while doing the READ & RUN ME is on your Desktop but Do not run it!
  • If it is not on your Desktop, the below will not work.
• Also make sure you have shut down all protection software (antivirus, antispyware...etc) or they may get in the way of allowing ComboFix to run properly.
• If ComboFix tells you it needs to update to a new version, make sure you allow it to update.
• Open Notepad and copy/paste the text in the below quote box into it:

• Save the above as CFscript.txt and make sure you save it to the same location (should be on your Desktop) as ComboFix.exe
• At this point, you MUST EXIT ALL BROWSERS NOW before continuing!
• You should have both the ComboFix.exe and CFScript.txt icons on your Desktop.
• Now use your mouse to drag CFscript.txt on top of ComboFix.exe
• Follow the prompts.
• When it finishes, a log will be produced named c:\combofix.txt
• I will ask for this log below

Note:

Do not mouseclick combofix's window while it is running. That may cause it to stall.


Now run Ccleaner. Only use the Run Cleaner button. Do not run anything else on any other forms.

Now download the current version of MGtools and save it to your root folder. Overwrite your previous MGtools.exe file with this one.

Run MGtools.exe ( Note: If using Vista make sure UAC is still disabled. Also don't double click on it, use right click and select Run As Administrator )

Now attach the below log:

• C:\ComboFix.txt
• C:\MGlogs.zip

Make sure you tell me how things are working now! If you are still having problems, make sure that it is not due to your PC Tools Firewall by temporarily disabling the firewall.

 

At this point it is looking like your problems are not due to malware. Especially if things start out working and then stop working. I want to ask a few questions and run one more fix and also run a couple other scans just to cover all bases, but you could be having non-malware problems.

What are the below for and do you still use the software?

Also what is the below software driver you have loading? Is this game related?
S3 GarenaPEngine;GarenaPEngine;\??\c:\docume~1\User1\LOCALS~1\Temp\LNE24C.tmp --> c:\docume~1\User1\LOCALS~1\Temp\LNE24C.tmp [?]


Is the below something you installed? Is it related to some kind of VPN software?
S3 tap0801;Smarthide TAP driver;c:\windows\system32\drivers\tap0801.sys [10/1/2006 8:37 PM 55808]

Now run this procedure: Using Dr.Web CureIt


Also run this: Running GMER to detect rootkits


Now run Ccleaner. Only use the Run Cleaner button. Do not run anything else on any other forms.

Now download the current version of MGtools and save it to your root folder. Overwrite your previous MGtools.exe file with this one.

Run MGtools.exe ( Note: If using Vista make sure UAC is still disabled. Also don't double click on it, use right click and select Run As Administrator )


Now attach the below log:

• C:\ComboFix.txt
• the log from Dr.Web CureIt
• the log from GMER
• C:\MGlogs.zip

Make sure you tell me how things are working now!
