    On startup spybot reports "System startup global entry value added", info shows it to be AGOBOT-KU WORM. I have not allowed or denied it yet. I have run all the prescribed software. Here is what it found. I hope I did this right!:-o

    I should have also mentioned that I did a Avast boot time scan and it was clean. I was wondering if using system restore to restore back to 9/11 (oldest point) might remove it?

    I have not seen an Agobot infection for a long time.

    You need to attach the logs from RogueKiller and Malwarebytes.

    Did you notice that Hitman does not like this >> C:\Users\Ron\Downloads\XvidSetup.exe

    I'm not seeing any signs of an Agobot infection. If Spybot still detects this, you will have to attach log from Spybot showing it.

    Thanks for your reply, I wondered why when I googled it most of the info I found was from 2007 or earlier. I don't know how to or where to find a spybot log file? I searched through the program but couldn't find log files?
    But here is what I'm seeing at startup-

    What version of Spybot are you running?

    Run a full scan with Spybot and when it finishes, right click in the window and you will see options for saving a log. Save one and attach it.

    There nothing in that log showing Agobot so I'm not sure what Spybot is referring too. Only the adware junk form Freeze.com shows in that log. You can have Spybot remove.

    Also you should uninstall the below:
    Conduit Engine
    Java(TM) 6 Update 20
    Java(TM) 6 Update 22
    Java(TM) 6 Update 29
    uTorrentBar Toolbar

    And then install the current version of Sun Java from: Sun Java Runtime Environment

    No longer getting the warning from spybot, everything seems fine now. I don't know what that was all about, but apparently it was a false alarm. Thanks for your help.

    You're welcome.


    If you are not having any other malware problems, it is time to do our final steps:
    1. We recommend you keep Malwarebytes Anti-Malware for scanning/removal of malware. You can uninstall RogueKiller and HitManPro.
    2. Go back to step 6 oof the READ ME and renable your Disk Emulation software with Defogger if you had disabled it.
    3. Any other miscellaneous tools we may have had you install or download can be uninstalled and deleted.
    4. If running Vista or Win 7, it is time to make sure you have reenabled UAC by double clicking on the C:\MGtools\enableUAC.reg file and allowing it to be added to the registry.
    5. Go to add/remove programs and uninstall HijackThis.
    6. Goto the C:\MGtools folder and find the MGclean.bat file. Double click on this file to run this cleanup program that will remove files and folders
      related to MGtools and some other items from our cleaning procedures.
    7. After doing the above, you should work thru the below link:
