If Spyware Doctor is a paid version, keep it, and uninstall Windows Defender.

Did you configure the below Proxy Override settings yourself?

Start by downloading a tools we will need - Pocket KillBox

Extract it to its own folder somewhere that you will be able to locate it later.

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:\Documents and Settings\hendersonloveday\Application Data\W?nSxS\?srss.exe
C:\PROGRA~1\COMMON~1\SKS~1\rundll.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.

Now run Pocket Killbox by doubleclicking on killbox.exe
Choose Tools > Delete Temp Files and click Delete Selected Temp Files.
Then after it deletes the files click the Exit (Save Settings) button.
NOTE: Pocket Killbox will only list the added files it is able to find on the system. So when you do the below, if some files do not show in the list after pasting them in, just continue.

Select:

• Delete on Reboot
• then Click on the All Files button.
• Please copy the file paths below to the clipboard by highlighting ALL of them and pressing CTRL + C (or, after highlighting, right-click and choose copy):

C:\Documents and Settings\hendersonloveday\Application Data\W?nSxS\?srss.exe
C:\Program Files\Common Files\SKS~1\rundll.exe
C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM32\cmd.ftp
C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM32\wnsapisv.exe
C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM32\pjcjtyqx.dll

• Return to Killbox, go to the File menu, and choose Paste from Clipboard.
• Click the red-and-white Delete File button. Click Yes at the Delete on Reboot prompt.

If you receive a PendingFileRenameOperations prompt, just click OK to continue (But please let me know if you receive this message!).
If Killbox does not reboot just reboot your PC yourself.

After reboot, please delete the below folders. Note that the Questionmarks represent unprintable characters that were found during the scans, but they may appear to you as normal characters when you locate them using Windows Explorer. I will add comments in RED next to each item. Note the date of the folders which will help you to locate them and to distinguish them from valid folder names than may also be seen.

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\hendersonloveday\Local Settings\Temp

Now attach the below new logs and tell me how the above steps went.

1. GetRunKey
2. ShowNew
3. HJT

Make sure you tell me how things are working now!

Reminder Note: Once we have determined you are malware free you will need to disable System Restore, reboot, and re-enable system restore per step 1 of the READ & RUN ME. This only applies to if using WinXP or WinMe.

 

Look again! And take a look at the newfiles.txt log from ShowNew for yourself. It does not lie. They are all there. One of them is even still running as shown in your HJT log:

C:\Documents and Settings\hendersonloveday\Application Data\W?nSxS\?srss.exe

If you are not seeing them (and take note of my comments in RED) then you did not follow the directions in step 2 or the READ & RUN ME.

 

Step 2 of the READ ME only applies to Windows Explorer not to Windows Search. You should have just opened Windows Explorer and manually navigated to the files/folders and deleted them. It is much faster than using search for each one.

You missed one that you still need to delete:

Code:

"C:\Program Files\Common Files\"
SKS~1         Aug 27 2006              "ç?sks"

Also you missed the O4 line in HJT that showed [Aida], so let's fix it and a couple other lines.

Run HijackThis 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:

R1 - HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Internet Settings,ProxyOverride = 64.136.29.30;64.136.21.30;64.136.29.34;searchap.untd.com;

O4 - HKCU\..\Run: [Aida] "C:\PROGRA~1\COMMON~1\SKS~1\rundll.exe" -vt ndrv

After clicking Fix, exit HJT.

Now reboot in normal mode


Now attach the below new logs and tell me how the above steps went.

1. ShowNew
2. HJT

Make sure you tell me how things are working now!

 

You're welcome!

My instructions were based on what was in the HJT log you posted in message number 8. It was still in that log. Apparently it had already been fixed by one of the steps but maybe it was not reflected in your HJT log yet. It is gone now. Your logs are clean.

If you are not having any other malware problems, it is time to do our final steps:

1. If we used Pocket Killbox during your cleanup, do the below
   • Run Pocket Killbox and select File, Cleanup, Delete All Backups
2. If we used ComboFix you can delete the ComboFix.exe file and associated C:\combofix.txt log that was created.
3. If we used VundoFix, you can delete the VundoFix.exe file and the C:\VundoFix Backups folder and C:\vundofix.txt log that was created.
4. If we had your run FixWareOut, you can delete the Fixwareout.exe file and the C:\fixwareout folder.
5. If we had you download any registry patches like fixme.reg or fixWLK.reg (or any others), you can delete these files now.
6. You can delete the ShowNew.Zip and GetRunkey.Zip files and the files that you extracted from the ZIP files. You can also delete the C:\newfiles.txt and C:\runkeys.txt logs that were created
7. If you are running Windows XP or Windows ME, do the below:
   • go back to step 8 of the READ & RUN ME to Disable System Restore which will flush your Restore Points.
   • Then reboot and Enable System Restore to create a new clean Restore Point.
8. After doing the above, you should work thru the below link:
