    Did you run ALL the steps in this sticky thread:READ ME FIRST BEFORE ASKING FOR SUPPORT: Basic Spyware, Trojan And Virus Removal

    If not, please run all of them first. If you have run all of those steps and still have a problem, follow the steps below.


    - Download HijackThis 1.99.1

    - Unzip the hijackthis.exe file to a folder you create named C:\Program Files\HJT

    - Do NOT run Hijack This from the Desktop, a temp folder, or a sub-folder of C:\Documents and Settings, or choose to run it directly from the downloaded ZIP file.

    - Before running HijackThis: You must close each of the following:your web browser, e-mail client, instant messenger, and programs like notepad, wordpad, MS Word etc. And any other unnecessary running programs.

    - Run HijackThis and save your log file.

    - Post your log as an ATTACHMENT to your next message. (Do NOT copy/paste the log into your post).

    When we finish fixing your current problems, you MUST goto Windows Update to get your updates.

    You have quite a few problems! We are going to have to work this in stages leaving the hardest problems (the HSA hijacker) for last.

    First goto Add/Remove programs and Uninstall Weatherbug. The continue with the below.

    If you are using WinXP or WinMe, make sure you have system restore disabled (per the tutorial).
    For all OS types, make sure viewing of hidden files is enabled (per the tutorial).

    Please run HijackThis and click on the "Open the Misc Tools Section" button on the open page. Then select "Open process manager" on the left-hand side. Look for the following process (or processes) and one at a time kill them by selecting it and then click "Kill process". Then click yes.
    C:\WINNT\system32\nsvsvc\nsvsvc.exe
    C:\WINNT\system32\picsvr\picsvr.exe
    C:\wp.exe


    After killing all the above processes, click "Back".

    Then please click "Scan" 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:

    After clicking Fix, exit HJT.

    Boot into safe mode and use Windows Explorer to delete:
    C:\WINNT\system32\nsvsvc <--- the whole folder
    C:\WINNT\system32\picsvr <--- the whole folder
    C:\Program Files\AWS
    C:\WINNT\system32\modemui.exe
    C:\wp.exe
    C:\wp.bmp
    c:\windows\web\desktop.html <-- if found

    If you get an error when deleting a file. Right click on the file and check to see if the read only attribute is checked. If it is, uncheck it and try again. Other wise open Task Manager and kill the process if running then delete the file.

    Now run Ccleaner (installed while running the READ ME FIRST). Now if running Win XP goto c:\windows\Prefetch and delete all files in this folder.

    Now reboot in normal mode.

    Copy the contents of the Quote Box below to Notepad. Then click File and then Save As. Change the Save as Type to All Files. Name the file fixwp.reg and then click save. (make sure you save it somewhere you can find it. Saving it to your Desktop may make that easy.) Double-click on the fixwp.reg file on your desktop (or locate it with Windows Explorer and double click on it if not saved to the Desktop) and when it prompts to add to the registry say yes.

Double-click on the fixwp.reg file on your desktop (or locate it with Windows Explorer and double click on it if not saved to the Desktop) and when it prompts to add to the registry say yes.
    Now post a new HJT log. And tell me how things are working.

    If we get all of those items above fixed, we will start working on a fix for the HSA hijacker you have.
