    My homepage has bee reset to about:blank, and redirects me to a website hosted by crl.verisign.com. All it does is give you round-robin links in Java. Anyway, I can't get rid of it. I have run Hijackthis, Spybot, spyaudit, and spyblock. No luck. Any help is appreciated.

    Hi,

    You need to scan with HijackThis and save the log. Then, copy and paste the entire log into this same thread.

    In the meantime, DO NOT RUN CWShredder! If you have one of the later versions of CWS that causes the about:blank problem, using CWShredder will only cause the hidden .dll files to morph and make them even more difficult to find and eradicate.

    Check out this thread for some info on the crl.verisign.com problem.

    As for your HiJaak This log, some things need to be cleaned up:

    Remove these:

    I question what the following 7 lines are for:

    robcab,

    Please DO NOT attempt to fix this with HijackThis. This is indeed one of the new CWS variants. HijackThis will only fix it until the next reboot, then it all comes back. The same with CWShredder. Also, there are hidden dll files that if improperly removed will only morph into multiple hidden dll files and intensify the problem.

    This problem requires a special fix. I will give you a link to the required file and instructions for using it; however, this file could be temporarily unavailable due to a pending update. If you can't get it right away, wait a few hours and then try again. Keep trying until you get it.

    Go here and download this self extracting file:
    http://tools.zerosrealm.com/dllfix.exe

    Save the file to your Desktop, double click dllfix.exe and follow the prompts.

    Go to the newly created dllfix folder on your Desktop and double click start.bat and choose option #1. This will scan your computer for the 'bad' file.

    Please post the log here first before you run the fix.

    utility_hawk,

    Run the start.bat again. Run option 2 and choose Option 1 in the submenu since the dllname was found in this line: file:///?C:WINDOWSSystem32D3DEJIJ.DLL

    Option 1 -- > is if you found the dllname that is locked or in the appinit key.


    Reboot. There will just be a md5 scan because the filename was entered manually. (option 2,1 in start.bat)

    Reboot and Download Ad-aware. Check for updates. Then scan with Ad-aware and allow it to remove all it finds. After that is completed, reboot, then download and scan with CWShredder and allow it to fix anything it finds.

    Reboot. Run HijackThis and save the fresh log.

    Post a new Output.txt (option 1 in start.bat ), the logs.txt the fix generated (you will find it automatically being made and found in the dllfix folder) and a fresh HijackThis Log.

    Hi,

    Please print a copy of these instructions because you will be working with all windows closed except HijackThis.

    Run HijackThis and place a check mark next to the following items then, WITH ALL OTHER WINDOWS CLOSED, select “fix checked.” Please note that any items preceded by "optional" are suggested fixes that will not remove the program but may have the added benefit of freeing up some of your system’s resources.

    R1 - HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main,HomeOldSP = about:blank

    If you placed these two following 06 item restrictions through either Spybot Search & Destroy or SpywareGuard (i.e., like locking your homepage, etc.) leave them; IF YOU DID NOT DO THIS, "fix" them with HijackThis.

    Reboot, and you should have a clean log.

    Please forward the zipped file that is mentioned in your log above to Shadowwar at the provided e-mail address. Be sure to incluse a link to your post here at Major Geeks. It is to Shadowwar that thanks is owed for writing the dllfix program, as well as Mosaic1 and FreeatLast for their valuable input to him.

    You're very welcome. [​IMG]

    I'm not familiar with this DLLFIX tool but there are a bunch of things in this HiJaak This log that need to be fixed:


    C:\WINDOWS\system32\dla\tfswctrl.exe

    You may have to boot to safe mode and then delete the above. Make sure you have fixed the relate items below first.

    Unless you have the Spybot S&D option 'Lock homepage from changes' active, or your
    system administrator put restrictions on these, have HijackThis fix the two O6 lines below.
    O6 - HKCU\Software\Policies\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Restrictions present

    O13 - Home Prefix:

    Unless you recognize the below line, fix it too.

    Group,
    Sorry to come late to the party. I'm having the same "about:blank" problem. The log I produced with the dllfix program looks different from what Utlity-Hawk posted. I may have screwed this up far worse by using Hijackthis and CWShredder a couple of times, trying to boot this bug.
    Below is the log that dllfix, option 1, produced for me. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    nohijackthis,

    Try downloading and most importantly updating the current version of Ad-aware. It now is suppose to handle some of these about blank issues. Again, make sure you update to the current referenece list, which at the time of writing this is 01R314 02.06.2004

    It looks like I have the latest adaware reference file. (it updated today)

    I keep finding this in the registry.

    Started deep registry scan
    ¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯
    Possible browser hijack attempt : Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\MainStart Pageabout:blank
    Possible Browser Hijack attempt Object recognized!
    Type : RegData
    Data : "about:blank"
    Rootkey : HKEY_CURRENT_USER
    Object : Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main
    Value : Start Page
    Data : "about:blank"

    I rid myself of part of the problem. A dll file that was a appinit_dll file, that was hidden in hlm\software\microsoft\windows nt\current version\windows (if you just deleted it, it would remake itself. The key to deleting it was renaming the windows part, to something like windows2, then delete it...rename the folder back to windos when done...)

    I can post a new hijack this log, or the other prog log if needed.

    My problem is still this. If I set my home page to about blank, this problem shows up in the registry. If I quarantine it, and change my homepage, it won't come back to the registry, unless I change my home page back to about blank...

    NOTE: This is cross-posted from the thread:
    http://www.majorgeeks.com/vb/showthread.php?p=365191#post365191

    I am having the same problem as Eric. I have followed the advice of posters in other threads on the dreaded "about:blank" problem. I have managed to rid my computer of this thing, sometimes for a few days. But it always returns.

    By way of background -- I am running Windows XP Home Edition 2002. I have downloaded and/or updated the latest copies of CW Shredder, AdAware and Spybot. I have also deleted these files several tims using HijackThis. [Previously, I posted the log in another thread.]

    I have done this with system restore turned off. And it keeps coming back. CW Shredder sometimes notices about:blank and sometimes does not. AdAware and Spybot find it every time and I delete. And still this thing returns.

    I would any help and advice.

    Djet3k,

    As I said in another thread, you need your own thread for this problem which I now see you have made. Kodo was not telling you to post your problem in the thread he referred you to. He was telling you to read it because it would help you fix the problem. Keep your problem in one thread and do not hijack other threads.
