    I followed all the steps of the read me. My malware isnt letting me access the internet so I cant download directly to the infected computer. Ive tried burning to a CD but whenever I open the CD drive it shows an empty CD. Ive tried renaming the programs and also booting in safe mode. :cry

    If I was home I would of just used my recovery CDs to start over but im 800 miles away.:cry

    edit: running xp

    Completed everything on the read me first. I have all the logs but when ever I go online all the pictures or icons arent showing up. If I right click and show picture they show up. So far this is all that I've noticed. It started yesturday when I was looking something up.

    ok well I figured out the picture problem, somehow show pictures got turned off. My CD drive seems to be working but It still wont let me see CCleaner on the disk I burnt. I'll just go with the other computer I was using.

    Can someone still check my logs to make sure I got everything off?

    Why cant we edit our posts?

    Welcome to Major Geeks!

    You should read the all the sticky threads. Continous posting prevents you from getting an answer. See: Don't Bump! It Only Hurts You!!!

    There is a 5 minute period during which you can edit and then it is not allowed.


    Uninstall the below old versions of software:
    J2SE Runtime Environment 5.0

    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:

    R3 - URLSearchHook: Yahoo! Toolbar - {EF99BD32-C1FB-11D2-892F-0090271D4F88} - (no file)
    O15 - Trusted Zone: *.antimalwareguard.com
    O15 - Trusted Zone: *.antispyexpert.com
    O15 - Trusted Zone: *.gomyhit.com
    O15 - Trusted Zone: *.imageservr.com
    O15 - Trusted Zone: *.spyguardpro.com
    O15 - Trusted Zone: *.storageguardsoft.com
    O15 - Trusted Zone: *.antimalwareguard.com (HKLM)
    O15 - Trusted Zone: *.antispyexpert.com (HKLM)
    O15 - Trusted Zone: *.gomyhit.com (HKLM)
    O15 - Trusted Zone: *.imageservr.com (HKLM)
    O15 - Trusted Zone: *.spyguardpro.com (HKLM)
    O15 - Trusted Zone: *.storageguardsoft.com (HKLM)

    After clicking Fix, exit HJT.

    Now we need to use ComboFix
    • 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

    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!

    You're welcome. Your logs are clean but you just need to do the below to fix a potential issue with MSConfig not being found.


    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.


    If you are not having any other malware problems, it is time to do our final steps:
    1. We recommed you keep SUPERAntiSpyware and Malwarebytes Anti-Malware for scanning/removal of malware. Unless you purchase them, they provide no protection. They do not use any significant amount of resources ( except a little disk space ) until you run a scan.
    2. 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)
    3. Any other miscellaneous tools we may have had you install or download can be uninstalled and deleted.
    4. If we had you download any registry patches like fixme.reg or fixWLK.reg (or any others), you can delete these files now.
    5. 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.
    6. Go to add/remove programs and uninstall HijackThis.
    7. You can delete the C:\MGtools folder and the C:\MGtools.exe file. You can also delete the C:\MGlogs.zip
    8. 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.
    9. After doing the above, you should work thru the below link:
