Am I still infected?

swimangel72 · Jan 10, 2009

Hello and thank you in advance for any help! I followed all the in structions in Windows XP Cleaning Procedure after I realized my computer was infected with something (Google wasn't working right and my computer has been very slow.) Google is now working, but I'm still concerned that there are other issues that may need addressing especially since my computer has so much junk in Startup (I stopped using msconfig to control Startup as you recommended). I've attached all the logs from the cleaning programs - and I hope someone can tell me if my computer is still infected. Thanks so much!

Am I still infected - Part 2

Your logs are clean.

Use add/remove programs to uninstall:
J2SE Runtime Environment 5.0 Update 6

Reboot and download and install:
Java Runtime

You may wish to use a Startup Manager

If you are not having any other malware issues, then:

We recommed you keep SUPERAntiSpyware and Malwarebytes Anti-Malware for scanning/removal of malware. Unless you purchase them, they provide no real time protection, but are effective as backup scanners. They do not use any significant amount of resources ( except a little disk space ) until you run a scan.

If we had you use ComboFix, uninstall ComboFix (This uninstall will only work as written if you installed ComboFix on your Desktop like we requested.)

Click START then RUN and enter the below into the run box and then click OK. Note the quotes are required

"%userprofile%\Desktop\combofix" /u

Notes: The space between the combofix" and the /u, it must be there.

This will uninstall ComboFix and also reset hidden files and folders settings back to Windows defaults.

Delete the C:\combofix folder from combofix (if it exists)

Any other miscellaneous tools we may have had you install or download can be uninstalled and deleted.

If running Vista, 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.

Go to add/remove programs and uninstall HijackThis.

You can delete the C:\MGtools folder and the C:\MGtools.exe file. You can also delete the C:\MGlogs.zip

If you are running Vista, Windows XP or Windows ME, do the below:

Refer to the cleaning steps in the READ ME for your Window version and see the steps to Disable System Restore which will flush your Restore Points.

Then reboot and Enable System Restore to create a new clean Restore Point.

After doing the above, you should work thru the below link:
