    Click on Start, then Run ... type services.msc into the box that opens up, and press 'OK'. On the page that opens, scroll down to CWShredder Service ... then right click the entry, select 'Properties' and press 'Stop Service'. When it shows that it is stopped, next please set the 'Start-up Type' to 'Disabled'. Press 'OK' until you get back to Windows.

    Next, run HJT, but instead of scanning, click on the "None of the above, just start the program" button at the bottom of the choices. At the lower right, click on the 'Config" button, and then the Misc tools' button ... select 'Delete an NT Service" ... copy/paste the following into the box that opens, and press "OK":

    CWShredder Service

    If you receive any error messages just ignore them and continue.

    Now exit HJT but do not reboot when it tells you it needs to. We will do that further down after running HJT again to fix some other items.


    Start by downloading two tools we will need

    - Process Explorer

    - Pocket KillBox

    Extract them to their own folder somewhere that you will be able to locate them later.

    IMPORTANT: You should print or save the below locally, so you can refer to them while offline. You must exit all browsers before running the below steps and it would be best if you actually physically unplug your cable to the internet, reboot, and do not run anything but what I give you to do. Also it would be good to exit all processes and items in your System tray.

    Do the above before continuing! Okay unplug your cable now.

    Make sure you have rebooted in Normal Mode (do not open any other processes)

    - Run Process Explorer

    In the top section of the Process Explorer screen double click on winlogon.exe to bring up the winlogon.exe properties screen. Click on the Threads tab at the top.

    Once you see this screen click on each instance of winjyg32.dll once and then click the kill button. After you have killed all of the winjyg32.dll under winlogon click ok. (If you do not find the dll, just continue on.)

    Now repeat the above step for the below two DLLs:
    efcbbay.dll

    Next double click on explorer.exe and again click once on each instance of winjyg32.dll and kill it. (If you do not find the dll, just continue on.)

    Now repeat the above step for the below two DLLs:
    efcbbay.dll

    Now just exit Process Explorer.

    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:\WINDOWS\system32\b8aae146.exe
    C:\WINDOWS\system32\f3d4c18.exe
    C:\DOCUME~1\Owner\APPLIC~1\SKS~1\javaw.exe
    C:\WINDOWS\??mantec\winlogon.exe
    C:\WINDOWS\TEMP\win32.tmp.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:

    R0 - HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main,Start Page = http://hsremove.com/done.htm
    R0 - HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main,Start Page = http://hsremove.com/done.htm
    R3 - URLSearchHook: (no name) - _{CFBFAE00-17A6-11D0-99CB-00C04FD64497} - (no file)
    O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [b8aae146.exe] C:\WINDOWS\system32\b8aae146.exe
    O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [f3d4c18.exe] C:\WINDOWS\system32\f3d4c18.exe

    O4 - HKCU\..\Run: [f3d4c18.exe] C:\Documents and Settings\Owner\Local Settings\Application Data\f3d4c18.exe
    O4 - HKCU\..\Run: [Iawr] "C:\DOCUME~1\Owner\APPLIC~1\SKS~1\javaw.exe" -vt yazb
    O4 - HKCU\..\Run: [Ibcn] C:\WINDOWS\??mantec\winlogon.exe
    O16 - DPF: {74CD40EA-EF77-4BAD-808A-B5982DA73F20} - http://yax-download.yazzle.net/YazzleActiveX.cab?refid=1123
    O20 - AppInit_DLLs: alg.dll C:\WINDOWS\system32\alg.dll


    NOTE: HJT will popup an error about the AppInit_DLLs line. Ignore it and click OK to continue.

    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.
    Now click Start, Run, and enter cmd and click OK! This will open a command prompt window. In the command prompt window enter the below commands each followed by the Enter key.
    del %windir%\temp\win*.*
    exit


    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.

    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\NetworkService\Local Settings\Temporary Internet Files\Content.IE5\R1TUDWF7\ctxad-309[1].0000
    C:\Documents and Settings\Owner\Favorites\Fun & Games
    C:\Documents and Settings\Owner\Favorites\~ VIP Free Porn ~.url
    C:\Documents and Settings\Owner\Application Data\S?mantec\javaw.exe
    C:\Documents and Settings\Owner\Application Data\smante~1\javaw.exe
    C:\Documents and Settings\Owner\Application Data\??sks\javaw.exe
    C:\Documents and Settings\Owner\Application Data\sks~1\javaw.exe
    C:\Documents and Settings\Owner\Local Settings\Application Data\b8aae146.exe
    C:\Documents and Settings\Owner\Local Settings\Application Data\f3d4c18.exe
    C:\Documents and Settings\Owner\Local Settings\Temporary Internet Files\Content.IE5\67Z0JBCM\srvmbo[1].exe
    C:\Documents and Settings\Owner\My Documents\James West\Local Settings\Temp\app1B.tmp
    C:\Documents and Settings\Owner\My Documents\James West\Local Settings\Temp\Tvm.upd
    c:\windows\downloaded program files\gdnUS2338.exe
    C:\WINDOWS\temp\win1DC.tmp.exe
    C:\WINDOWS\TEMP\win32.tmp.exe
    c:\windows\??mantec\winlogon.exe
    c:\windows\mantec~1\winlogon.exe
    c:\windows\system32\f3d4c18.exe
    c:\windows\system32\b8aae146.exe
    C:\WINDOWS\system32\setup1045.exe
    C:\WINDOWS\system32\efcbbay.dll
    C:\WINDOWS\system32\winjyg32.dll
    C:\WINDOWS\system32\alg.dll
    c:\windows\cfgmgr52.ini

    • 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. Click OK at any PendingFileRenameOperations prompt (and please let me know if you receive this message!).
    If Killbox does not reboot just reboot your PC yourself.

    Now attach a new HJT log and tell me how the steps went.
    Make sure you tell me how things are working now!
