Myway Speedbar will not go away

I have downloaded and used all the tools recommended in "Major Attitude" article 3507 and deleted the BHO {014DA6C1-189F-421a-88CD-07CFE51CFF10} using a number of tools as well as manually editing the registry. Every time I boot up, the Myway.speedbar's BHO is reinstalled. I have run Hijack This and would like to post the log file. I appreciate any help at all.

 

post your log as a text file attachment and we'll look at it.

 

Ok, here's the Hijack This log file (attached)

 

Hello out there. I see Kodo asked to look at my 'Hijack This' log file and a couple of other folks have viewed this thread since then. Does anyone have a clue how to resolve this issue?

I did uninstall the 'Myway Speedbar', but when I noticed that it continued to attempt to reinstall, I contacted 'My Search Customer Service' who sent me an uninstaller file 'fiunins.exe'. When I executed the file, it indicated the PC was clean.

As I said in my earlier post, I did download and use all the tools recommended in article 3507 following the instructions step by step. However, this 'Myway Speedbar' continues to attempt to reinstall at each reboot and actually installs the BHO
{014DA6C1-189F-421a-88CD-07CFE51CFF10} in my registry. There doesn't seem to be a DLL or any file associated with it. I am using 'GIANT Antispyware' which alerts me to the attempted install and allows me to delete it, but there appears to be no way to prevent it from installing in the first place.

I am really in need of some help at this point. Hope to hear from one of you experts soon.

 

you can load HJT and get rid of these

R3 - Default URLSearchHook is missing
O2 - BHO: (no name) - {014DA6C1-189F-421a-88CD-07CFE51CFF10} - (no file)

Other than that, I don't see any problem. People are reporting that Giant has been giving false positives so you could be experiencing that.

 

Hi ITALI,

This particular malware often comes bundled with something that you knowingly put on your computer and didn’t bother to read the EULA – Kazaa and Fun Web Products are two of the more popular culprits.

Perhaps you should use Windows Explorer to run a search of your computer for anything related to My Way, My Search, SpeedBar, Fun Web and the like and see what you turn up.

Also, I wonder what some of those unnamed 016s in your log are.

Just a thought,

PP

 

OK guys, thanks for the response. My latest HJT log is attached and you can see that that BHO is back again after fixing all the suggested items. I have also searched numerous times for related files & DLL's and removed any that applied. I still have missed something since the thing keeps reappearing in my registry. This is not likely a false positive since 'BHO Cop' confirms its existence and I can scan the registry and find that BHO in various places.

Any other ideas? I can't believe this is so difficult to eliminate.

 

chas,
I researched those last three O16's and they were ok. fyi.

 

I saw that earlier. I added it to Lojack but forgot to post it in my post.

I would agree that the file looks to be non-existant. I just wanted to let you know that those clsid's were associated with legit programs.

 

This is something I didn't notice earlier. The 3 O16's chas refers to only reappeared after I rebooted, just like the BHO reappears. Look at the attached HJT log which was run after I cleaned those 4 out, but before I rebooted. What's going on here?

 

ChasLang, to answer your comment about Weatherbug... I did uninstall it a couple of days ago. I guess the uninstall was not complete.

I'll be back tomorrow guys. Thanks for your input so far.
