    Welcome to Major Geeks!

    It looks like you have a load of registry corruption based on your logs. Also it looks like you have been experimenting on your own with HijackThis, Avenger and maybe more. Exactly what have you been doing???? Your startup entries are all corrupted and your registry shows that Norton/Symantec is installed but your logs do not show it running. Is it still installed?

    Are you filtering anything with HijackThis? I can see you deleted a bunch of things with HijackThis. Exactly what did you delete?

    Sorry about that. I may have been working on several fixes at once and got your log mixed up with another.


    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: WormRadar.com IESiteBlocker.NavFilter - {3CA2F312-6F6E-4B53-A66E-4E65E497C8C0} - D:\Program Files\AVG\AVG8\avgssie.dll (file missing)
    O6 - HKCU\Software\Policies\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Control Panel present
    O16 - DPF: {266BB960-7DA8-11D4-A849-00008321B7D9} -
    O16 - DPF: {3D518D7D-422F-4787-AC71-10BB552E897B} -
    O16 - DPF: {469C92F9-CA8E-4C3E-9AD4-F74EEF097BCA} -
    O16 - DPF: {665C05C1-517D-11D3-BE4A-00008322ED5D} (MSIInspect.Inspector) -
    O16 - DPF: {9C067552-A98D-11D3-BE8E-0000832BD4E5} (CCCertInfo4 Class) -
    O16 - DPF: {CAFEEFAC-0016-0000-0005-ABCDEFFEDCBA} (Java Plug-in 1.6.0_05) -
    O16 - DPF: {CF40ACC5-E1BB-4AFF-AC72-04C2F616BCA7} -
    O16 - DPF: {E90EF4C9-1476-4C49-B926-97C7D9D30A06} -
    O16 - DPF: {EBE01DF7-D451-11D5-A842-000102A97CAB} -

    After clicking Fix, exit HJT.

    Now we need to use ComboFix to remove a bunch of malware files.
    • 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.
    • 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.


    After reboot, now install the current version of Sun Java from: Sun Java Runtime Environment[/URL]

    Also delete all files and subfolders in the below folders except ones from the current date (Windows will not let you delete the files from the current day).
    C:\WINDOWS\Temp
    C:\Documents and Settings\Administrator\Local Settings\Temp

    Copy the bold text below to notepad. Save it as fixme.reg to your desktop. Be sure the "Save as" type is set to "all files" Once you have saved it double click it and allow it to merge with the registry.
    Make sure that you tell me if you receive a success message about adding the above
    to the registry. If you do not get a success message, it definitely did not work.

    Now run Ccleaner!

    Now run the C:\MGtools\GetLogs.bat file by double clicking on it (Note: if using Vista, don't double click, use right click and select Run As Administrator).

    Then attach the below logs:
    • C:\ComboFix.txt
    • C:\MGlogs.zip
    Make sure you tell me how things are working now!

    Ok, I did the following, my desktop is still corrupt, should I print screen and show you? I read somewhere that it might be a key in rergistry missing or something. Here is my logs:

    Your logs are clean. As I stated earlier your first logs showed a lot of registry corruption issues. Thus remaining problems are probably not due to malware. You can try the below. It may or may not help.


    Fixing Locked Desktop
    • Right click on your Desktop and select Properties.
    • Then click the Desktop tab
    • then click the Customize Desktop button.
    • Now in the next window that comes up click the Web tab.
      • Make sure at the bottom that Lock desktop items is unchecked.
    • Then in the Web pages: box delete all items but My Current Home Page and make sure it is unchecked too.
    • Then click OK.
    • Click Apply. And click OK.
