Unremovable Pop Ups!!!!!!!!

I split you off from the thread you posted in. Please do not post your problems in a thread that you do not own. You have HJT installed improperly. Also note you have no antivirus program nor do you have a firewall. This is very dangerous.

You need to follow the same cleanup procedures given to everyone.


- Run ALL the steps in this Sticky thread READ ME FIRST BEFORE ASKING FOR SUPPORT: Basic Spyware, Trojan And Virus Removal Make sure you check version numbers and get all updates.

- Very Important: Make sure you tell us the results from running the tutorial...was anything found? Were you unable to complete any of the scans?...Were you unable to download any of the tools?...Did you do the on-line scans as suggested? etc.




After doing ALL of the above you still have a problem:

- Download HijackThis 1.99.1

- Unzip the hijackthis.exe file to a folder you create named C:\Program Files\HJT

- Do NOT run Hijack This from the Desktop, a temp folder, or a sub-folder of C:\Documents and Settings, or choose to run it directly from the downloaded ZIP file.

- Before running HijackThis: You must close each of the following:your web browser, e-mail client, instant messenger, and programs like notepad, wordpad, MS Word etc. And any other unnecessary running programs.

- Do not post your log yet. We will get to that in my next message.

 

After doing what I gave you in my previous post. Do the below:

If you are using WinXP or WinMe, make sure you have system restore disabled (per the tutorial).
For all OS types, make sure viewing of hidden files is enabled (per the tutorial).

Please bring up Task Manager by hitting CTRL-ALT-DEL and click the Processes tab. Look for the below process(es) and if found, End them:
C:\WINDOWS\WinTask.exe
C:\WINDOWS\system\afptjad.exe

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:
O2 - BHO: (no name) - {5C8B2A36-3DB1-42A4-A3CB-D426709BBFEB} - (no file)
O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [C:\WINDOWS\WinTask.exe] C:\WINDOWS\WinTask.exe
O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [PopMark] C:\WINDOWS\WinTask.exe

After clicking Fix, exit HJT.
Boot into safe mode and use Windows Explorer to delete:
C:\WINDOWS\WinTask.exe
C:\WINDOWS\system\afptjad.exe

If you get an error when deleting a file. Right click on the file and check to see if the read only attribute is checked. If it is, uncheck it and try again. Otherwise open Task Manager and kill the process if running then delete the file.

- Now run Ccleaner (installed while running the READ ME FIRST).

- Now reboot in normal mode and post a new HJT log.

--Post your log as an ATTACHMENT to your next message. (Do NOT copy/paste the log into your post)

- And tell us how things are working.

 

Your log is clean now. If you want to stay that way, you need to take care of the issues I mentioned earlier (like no AV or firewall). You should follow all the steps in the below thread:

How to Protect yourself from malware!

 

To maximize protection, you should complete all the steps in that thread that you have not performed yet.
