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 8 of the READ & RUN ME. This only applies to if using WinXP or WinMe.

 

Okay I just noticed that you are using very old out of date versions of GetRunKey and ShowNew. You must always make sure you use the current version of all tools given in the READ ME. Please download and use the current versions to create new logs and attach these new logs.

 

Run this Disable/Remove Windows Messenger to remove Windows Messenger. Do not confuse Windows Messenger with MSN Messenger because they are not the same. Windows Messenger is a frequent cause of popups.

2. GetRunKey
3. ShowNew
4. HJT

Make sure you tell me how things are working now!

Also DO NOT REBOOT or power down after attaching your logs. If you are still infected, file names could change and that would make my next fix ineffective.

 

No! You needed to allow the reboot when Avenger runs. Then after attaching the NEW logs at the end of the procedue you must not reboot. I'm going to work up a new fix for you to use. This time make sure you allow the full Avenger procedure to run. And then after you attach ALL NEW logs and the Avenger log, do not reboot. I'll post a fix after going thru your last logs.

Yes this has been a problem for some people, i have not noticed any problems myself since early yesterday.

 

Based on your HJT log you did not Remove Windows Messenger. Please do that now.
