    hullo there. I have fallen victim to this annoying AOL worm. I went to the Symantic website http://securityresponse.symantec.com/avcenter/venc/data/w32.opanki.html and tried to remove it with their dierctions, but to no avail. I still am having a problem with an IE window opening up and trying to connect to ftpd.there3d.com on TCP port 4888. Can you help, please?

    If you have malware problems you need help cleaning up, run the procedures below:


    - 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.

    Now boot back to normal mode and download and install Microsoft® Windows AntiSpyware and make sure you get the updates but do not run a scan yet.

    Now reboot into safe mode again with no network support, make sure you have no browsers opened and then run a full scan with MS Antispyware and let it fix what it finds.

    Now reboot into normal mode to get your HijackThis log if necessary.



    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.

    - Run HijackThis and save your log file.

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