Do I need to ReFormat my computer?

The problem: AOL has now malfunctioned to the point where I can only send and recieve IMs.  I can no longer even check my email as it shuts itself down.  My microsoft programs seem to be unable to open any files, whether it be a power point file or a word file.  My mouse cursor has changed back to its boring self, where previously it had some fancy thing or other.  My antivirus thing refuses to even open (not to mention that the antivirus thing is only a trial that expires in August of this year...and is outdated anyway).  When I try to run the Symantec virus scanner, Internet Explorer shuts down.  I tried that housecall scanner,  but it refused to load. 

Side notes: Whatever the problem is seems to be affecting mainly the administration accounts on windows XP.  The only thing I can remember downloading recently was a file on Nick Berg.

Bear with me here, I have no idea about what I am about to speak of.  There was an error thing...and it listed a directory thingy...something like... Temp\WER6.tmp.dir00\appcompat.txt...and another had listed Temp\WERC.tmp.dir00\appcompat.txt...the others list nothing but just shut themselves down.

A friend mentioned that I could either figure out what the virus was and delete it...or re format and lose my files.  Anyone have any suggestions?

Format is a last resort on this Forum...rarely needed.

We need you to download and install an analysis and repair tool called Hijackthis.

Go here and download the file: http://tomcoyote.com/hjt

Please unzip Hijackthis.zip into a new folder you create in the root level of the C: drive. Name this folder C:\HJT for best and safest results. (don't put in a temp folder, or the desktop, etc...as it needs a safe folder to keep backup logs). Also when people post here and place it on the Desktop 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. *;-)

See this link for graphical instruction: http://russelltexas.com/spywareinfo/createhjtfolder.htm

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


Run Hijackthis, click on the 'scan' button and then 'save log' button. Copy and paste the contents of the text file you save into a reply to this message. A lot of posters make mistakes here in copying and pasting so reread the left info sidebar called Copy and Paste at http://www.tomcoyote.com/hjt

Do not fix anything in HJT log screen without assistance. Many items are normal for Windows operation. It should identify the vast majority of your problems and enable us to help you clean them off your system.


Stay in this thread for continuity. Reply to this message.

I can't even do that.  Internet Explorer keeps shutting down on me when I try to click on the link you've kindly provided.

Could be your HOSTS file is blocking certain websites..

Open Windows Explorer: type the word explorer at Start/Run box and click OK:

Drill down to: assuming XP:

C:\windows\system32\drivers\ETC\HOSTS    Rename the HOSTS file to HOSTS.OLD

Windows will create a new one (might require a reboot). Try the link again...if it fails try this alternate link:

http://209.133.47.200/~merijn/files/HijackThis.exe

We can also email the file as it is small and fits on a floppy or you can download it on another machine and take it to the sick one, scan a log and save the text file to the floppy and carry back to good machine and post here. Lots of ways to skin a rat. *;-) (and there are plenty of rats on the Net).

O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [CMESys] "C:\Program Files\Common Files\CMEII\CMESys.exe"

With no other windows open except for Hijackthis, click on fix checked button.

Reboot to SAFE MODE and Show HIDDEN FILES and folders

FAQ 8 and 9 on this page: http://www.russelltexas.com/spywareinfo/faqhijackthis.htm

Open Windows Explorer: type the word explorer at Start/Run box and click OK:

Drill on down and delete the following folders:

C:\Program Files\MySearch
C:\Program Files\Common Files\CMEII    

Reboot in normal mode Windows and run Disk Cleaner: type cleanmgr at Start/Run. Scan all hard drives and check all categories at the end and click OK.

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:

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

Post a new HJT log here after completing your cleanup. 


HTH,

R1 - HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main,Default_Search_URL = http://red.clientapps.yahoo.com/customize/ie/defaults/su/ymsgr/*http://www.yahoo.com

Click fix checked button.

One thing I might mention is Messenger Plus! is  persona non grata to many folks:

Reboot and post an new log.

Looks clean...I see you like Harry Potter...here's a favorite link of mine for fans:

You look clean and hearty congratulations! Now to stay that way.

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. 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.

7. 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. *;-)

See this link for graphical instruction: http://russelltexas.com/spywareinfo/createhjtfolder.htm

I thank you Mr. Texruss sir, but something still seems to be off...the IE keeps shutting down everytime I try to click on a link such as those you kindly provide (I keep switching between my account and another -Win XP) to view them.  Any idea on this problem?

Scratch that...the microsoft stuff doesn't want to work either...

Check your HOSTS file:

But if it is just IE crashing there may be corruption...

MS repair info

Also see http://www.mvps.org/sramesh2k/IEFAQ.htm

Post back with more details...I'm offline for a few hours.

The HOSTS file seems to be fine...this...














Method 1: Reinstall or Repair Windows XP



To repair or reinstall Internet Explorer and Outlook Express in Windows XP, complete the following procedure while you are logged on as an administrator:



Use the System File Checker tool to scan all of the protected files on your computer:



Click Start, and then click Run. In the Open box, type sfc /scannow, and then click OK. Note that you may be prompted for the Windows XP or Windows XP Service Pack 1 installation media.



Test to determine if the issue is resolved. If the issue is resolved, skip the remaining steps. If the issue is not resolved, continue to the next step. Complete an in-place upgrade of Windows XP, a repair of Windows XP, or reinstall Windows XP. For additional information about how to complete an in-place upgrade or repair of Windows XP, click the article number below to view the article in the Microsoft Knowledge Base:



How to Perform an In-Place Upgrade (Reinstallation) of Windows XP



To reinstall Windows XP updates, visit the following Microsoft Windows Update Web site:












The scannow thing doesn't seem to work...or it does...but is a window supposed to pop up with results or something?  It scans and goes away.  It doesn't do anything else...I'm not sure what I'm supposed to do in such a case.

>The scannow thing doesn't seem to work...or it does...but is a window supposed to pop up with results or something?  It scans and goes away. 

The System File Checker (the sfc part) looks for bad Windows files and repairs them if found. If it doesn't find any bad files it will behave like you saw.

Thank you Mr. Texruss sir!  Only the Internet Explorer still acts up, but I've got my files back
