Can't Access Certain Web Pages

>A few people in my area are having the same problem but its not service related

I don't believe in coincidences...if a few people on DSL can't hit americanexpress.com and you also can't hit it, but can on dial-up what does that tell you? *;-)

You have some pests, but none I see that could deny a particular website. However, Hijackthis does not see every threat and peer-to-peer users are at far greater risk even with a firewall like NIS (my favorite). I never run my peer-to-peer on startup for example...why leave a supernode open for the world?

If we don't solve it below...check with your ISP about the americanexpress problem.

On to the pests: Run Hijackthis, scan, and check the box left of the following items:

Comments: This little-known file has been reported only once or twice on Google in the past year and is very similar in spelling to the file SbCie027.dll which is reported by the French Pest Patrol page as the SideStep pest. So suffice it to say it must go bye-bye. It is possible it is the source of your inaccessible URL problem...but with so many other pests will be hard to pinpoint as the cause.

I doubt you have the latest Spybot (1.3) as I don't see a new entry for it. Run latest Spybot and Adaware per these instructions:

Download and run these two programs (Spybot S&D and Adaware). Use Spybot first.

Chris has posted an excellent tutorial by dgosling on how to run Spybot S&D and also how to enable customized deep scanning functions for Adaware. Once you set these options they will be retained for future scans by Adaware.

Follow the directions in this detailed guide for Spybot and Adaware...go slow on the directions for the custom setup of Adaware:

After running both programs to clean up some of the debris we will miss manually, browse a bit, then run a fresh log and post here.

After the final all clear is given by us you should flush your Restore Points for XP. That means disabling the Restore Point, rebooting to flush it, then re-enabling a new Restore Point. The reason why we need to do this is to purge the bad files hidden in System Restore which can't be cleaned by your antivirus programs.

See FAQ 12 here: http://www.russelltexas.com/spywareinfo/faqhijackthis.htm

OK ran everything.  Just so you know the service provider tech took a laptop to one of the persons who was having the same problem and was able to access the website at the point of connection.  When I did run Spybot, near the end of the run i got a "Error During Check" Winpup32 (undgultiger datentyp fur).  Here is the log;

If you have winpup then you might have a bunch of malware files in C:\Windows\System32 folder. See link below...the files to look for and delete in Safe Mode are:

Windows\system32\winpup.exe
Windows\system\allbackf.exe
Windows\system\cctresa.exe
Windows\system\dvdq.exe
Windows\system\hellexts.exe
Windows\system\lb32v.exe
Windows\system\lethk32o.exe
Windows\system\m20f.exe
Windows\system\mcompata.exe
Windows\system\msdmodw.exe
Windows\system\nternati.exe
Windows\system\ommdlgc.exe
Windows\system\pg2spltm.exe
Windows\system\prservm.exe
Windows\system\sound3dd.exe
Windows\system\sratelcm.exe
Windows\system\storesp.exe
Windows\system\taigfxi.exe
Windows\system\ysinfos.exe23058718.exe

Not sure of these locations:

cmpi.exe
msa32chk.dll
stimem.exe
syscm.exe
trojan.win32.startpage.ae.exe
winpup32.exe

also registry fixes on this page:

http://www.pestpatrol.com/PestInfo/w/winpup32.asp

Post back a new log and comments on whether you find some of these files.

Texruss

 

I am inclined to chalk this up to a false alert in Spybot (you are using the new 1.3 and not the 1.2 or beta 1.3? please let me know). Other users report the exact same behavior....detecting winpup and a search for the winpup files turns up nothing. Remember you get what you pay for...*;-)

Still have a couple entries in Hijackthis we discussed deleting...if they were just resistant try running Hijackthis in Safe Mode and fix these:

O3 - Toolbar: eBay Toolbar - {46AE04C0-BCFA-4728-90E7-00EB4A8B3863} - C:\WINDOWS\Downloaded Program Files\CONFLICT.1\eBayBand.dll
O9 - Extra button: SideStep (HKLM)

Definitely get rid of SideStep. While you are in Safe Mode run your Norton AV full system scan with new defs and see if it gives you a clean bill of health. Post back a fresh HJT log in normal mode...I'll catch you Saturday.

I would also flush your System Restore points at this time...do it after running the AV scan.

FAQ 12 here: http://www.russelltexas.com/spywareinfo/faqhijackthis.htm

All the best,

Hi fixed item in 016 but couldn't find any other items to delete.  Still have same error in spybot; still no joy!

Can't seem to clear

I clear it and it keeps coming back.

no other issues

Any issues other than the Spybot alerts for winpup?

>No issues other than the Spybot alerts for winpup.

I am chalking this up to a false alert unless I learn otherwise. Considering you found none of the winpup files after a search I think this conclusion is valid.

Now to stay clean... I really suggest items 2 and 3 as a MUST for everyone.

You look clean and hearty congratulations!

1. The main cleanup programs:

Spybot Search&dDestroy, Ad-aware Run weekly - or after a heavy internet session.

Chris has posted an excellent tutorial by dgosling on how to run Spybot S&D and also how to enable customized deep scanning functions for Adaware. Once you set these options they will be retained for future scans by Adaware.

Follow the directions in this detailed guide for Spybot and Adaware...go slow on the directions for the custom setup of Adaware:

http://www.cjwd.demon.co.uk/spybot-adaware.html

I also like to run Windows Disk Cleanup after cleaning with those two tools. Make sure you reboot if any reboot cleanup functions of Spybot and Adaware are advised by these tools (this may happen at the end of their cleanup).

Reboot and click on Start/Run/ type: cleanmgr

From MS Help: "Disk Cleanup helps free up space on your hard drive. Disk Cleanup searches your drive, and then shows you temporary files, Internet cache files, and unnecessary program files that you can safely delete. You can direct Disk Cleanup to delete some or all of those files."

I check all the selected categories and click OK at the end of Disk Cleanup.

2. Proactive programs: Spywareblaster & Spywareguard, first sets kill bits to stop known bad MSIE ActiveX scripts from installing, second acts like your AV to stop browser hijacks and installing of known baddies.

3. IE-Spyad, puts 4000 bad sites in your restricted (banned) sites list, to stop you accidentally getting sent to a bad site, it has optional list of "bad" adult sites to install as well.

Links for these at: http://www.cjwd.demon.co.uk/compsafetyonline.html

4. Don't forget keeping Windows updated. The automatic updates frequently fail so run it manually once a week or when new updates are publicized.

Windows Live Update Page
http://v4.windowsupdate.microsoft.com/en/default.asp
Free Windows Security CD (for those who qualify):
www.microsoft.com/security/protect/cd/order.asp

If LiveUpdate fails (and it is prone to on MANY machines) download each patch manually from the MS advisory pages and install manually. Works for me!

5. Keep your antivirus updated.
Free AVG Antivirus for home users: http://www.grisoft.com

6. Beg, borrow, or buy a Software Firewall if at all possible. I use Norton Internet Security 2004 and it has saved my bacon more times than I can count. For a free software firewall turn on the fairly lame firewall in Windows XP (I say it is lame because it does not monitor or block outgoing traffic...only incoming...a serious omission if the threat occurs inside your network). Hopefully with the upcoming Service Pack 2 this flaw will be addressed.

A better choice for now for a free software firewall is Zone Alarm.

7. Practice safe computer habits. Don't click on strange email attachments thinking your AV will defend you. Usually it will. Sometimes it won't when a new virus hits the Net and definitions take hours to create by the AV vendors. There is only one defense that works 100% for the safe protection of your machine's personal data and that is timely and accurate backups of your files. Hard drives die, viruses ruin your files, and other bad things can happen (fire, theft, etc..). Offsite backups are the best.

8. Don't forget our great analysis tool Hijackthis. We have a lot of gratitude we need to show towards the author Merijn. I hope he does great things in his future endeavors and is richly rewarded for his time and expertise in providing this super program.

Hijackthis (to analyse your system and submit a log file to expert forums):
http://tomcoyote.com/hjt

(for Hijackthis logs...please copy to and run Hijackthis.exe into a new folder you create in the root level of the C: drive. Name this folder HJT for best and safest results). (don't put in a Local Settings Temp folder, or the Windows desktop, etc...as it needs a safe folder to keep backup logs). Also when XP and W2K users post here and place it in the Local Settings, the log usually shows their full name since their Windows user profile is commonly named with their full name. We try not to disturb your privacy. *;-)

i still can't access that amex site though.

I still think it's an ISP issue. Make sure your NIS doesn't exclude it...you might add the URL to trusted zone.
