Help with about:blank

Go back and read them again. You still have not run everything you were told to run. For one example, no online scans were run. Also no one asked you to post a log. If you had read the HJT tutorial you would know that you must not post a log until we ask you to.

Do you know why you have these settings:
R1 - HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Internet Settings,ProxyServer = 10.1.50.1:8080
R1 - HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Internet Settings,ProxyOverride = avc-intranet;10.1.50.1;<local>

 

As alway, please create a backup in case you have any problems.

Remove:

R1 - HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main,Search Bar = file://c:\windows\TEMP\sp.html
R1 - HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main,Search Page = file://c:\windows\TEMP\sp.html
R1 - HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main,Search Bar = file://c:\windows\TEMP\sp.html
R1 - HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main,Search Page = file://c:\windows\TEMP\sp.html
R1 - HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Search,SearchAssistant = file://c:\windows\TEMP\sp.html
R0 - HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Search,SearchAssistant = file://c:\windows\TEMP\sp.html
R1 - HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main,HomeOldSP = about:blank
R1 - HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main,HomeOldSP = about:blank

These lines need to be verified by you if your running a proxy server OR possibly installed by your ISP. If unsure, leave for now:

R1 - HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Internet Settings,ProxyServer = 10.1.50.1:8080
R1 - HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Internet Settings,ProxyOverride = avc-intranet;10.1.50.1;<local>

Continue removing, (next lines could be why the stuff is returning):

O2 - BHO: (no name) - {C9C0BEA3-0676-11D9-A70A-0000BFBE37C4} - C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM\BLBDEPA.DLL
O18 - Filter: text/html - {C9C0BEA2-0676-11D9-A70A-0000D0F2925F} - C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM\BLBDEPA.DLL
O18 - Filter: text/plain - {C9C0BEA2-0676-11D9-A70A-0000D0F2925F} - C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM\BLBDEPA.DLL

Reset your home page and cross your fingers. Let us know!

 

Sorry, Chaslang, didnt even see you online, nonetheless in this thread.

 

No problem! By the way, in most cases, just fixing those lines will not cure the about blank problem. There is typically a hidden process (Streaming I/O) that must be removed. So expect it to return. I just wanted the remaining steps of the READ ME to be followed first before I got into it.

 

Roger that, I assumed he ran everything as promised and since he was removing items from Hijack This and posted it properly, again assumed he removed the online scan lines and jumped in. We will have to wait to see what he says. Again, sorry to step on toes, just trying to get peoples questions answered. Ill go away for a bit now, but just like herpes, ill be back
