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 (first) level of the C: drive. Name this folder HJT for best and safest results. (don't unzip it into a temp folder or run the file from a temp folder, or the Windows 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

See my entire Hijackthis FAQ (Frequently Asked Questions) at:

http://www.russelltexas.com/spywareinfo/faqhijackthis.htm

After downloading, and unzipping the hijackthis file into a safe folder you create (preferably a folder named HJT in the first level of the C: drive)...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

Special Notice! Hijackthis is a powerful tool that edits the brains of Windows (the Registry). DO NOT FIX anything in the Hijackthis log screen without assistance from the experts! Most of the line items in the scanned log are normal for Windows operation. Hijackthis 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.


HTH (Hope that Helps)

You have a CoolWebsearch infection.

Get CW Shredder to repair your CoolWebSearch infestations:
http://www.spywareinfo.com/~merijn/files/cwshredder.zip version 1.57.0

Follow the directions for running the program at the next link.

http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/forums/index.php?showtutorial=47

At bleepingcomputer.com start reading at the section that says:

You can download this program here: CWShredder

(Note...we have noticed recently some CWS variants are harder to remove unless the shredder is run in Safe Mode...hit F8 while booting to enter Safe Mode and run the shredder.) Make sure you FIX any items it finds!

After cleaning with the shredder in Safe Mode do this:

Reboot in normal mode Windows and download and run these two programs (Spybot S&D and Adaware). Use Spybot first. (1.3 version)
http://majorgeeks.com/download2471.html

Follow the directions completely at:

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

Reboot if asked by either program and let it complete any cleanup. Then reboot a final time after running both and run Windows Disk Cleanup: Start/Run/ type: cleanmgr

I check all the categories at the end of the scan and click OK.

After cleaning with the shredder post a new log here...you have other issues including Trojans.

Also please relocate your hijackthis file to a safe folder:

Reboot in normal mode Windows. Browse a bit  and then post a new Hijackthis log here. 

After the final all clear is given by us you should flush your Restore Points for XP and MIllennium. 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.

Sorry...I was daydreaming on first log...zzzz. You have a peper infection...get this tool and read the instructions:

http://www.russelltexas.com/spywareinfo/peper/pepercomments.htm

The line we are looking at is this one:

O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [2LRX2W83X2T3MQ] C:\WINDOWS\System32\FteikZ.exe
Don't fix it in Hijackthis...use the instructions at the link above.

The red bracketed box contains the CLISD (unique Class Identifier) which tells us that it's a peper file as the CLSID for peper always has 14 random characters with a number between 2 and 6 for the first character.

After you run the fix run a new HJT scan and see if any new 04 entries appear with that 14 character number sequence starting with a 2,3,4,5, or 6. If so it has morphed and you'll need to fix again.

Post back with a new log after fixing as we have more work to do.

C:\WINDOWS\2_0_1browserhelper2.exe

O4 - HKCU\..\Run: [lstr] C:\WINDOWS\lstr\upd12860.exe arg1
O4 - Startup: Virtual Bouncer.lnk = C:\Program Files\VBouncer\VirtualBouncer.exe

With no other windows opens (no browsers either) click on fix checked button in Hijackthis.

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 files and/or folders:  (some may not be present...but look VERY carefully)

Files
C:\WINDOWS\wdskctl.exe
C:\WINDOWS\2_0_1browserhelper2.exe
C:\WINDOWS\System32\SearchBar.htm
C:\WINDOWS\alchem.exe

Folders   (right button click on folder name and delete foldername and all subcontents inside that folder)

C:\Program Files\VBouncer
C:\WINDOWS\Lstr
C:\Program files\altnet
C:\Program Files\TV Media

Exit Explorer and run Windows Disk Cleaner: type cleanmgr at Start/Run. Scan all hard drives and check all categories at the end and click OK.

Reboot in normal mode Windows and browse a bit, then post a new log.

BTW..."an error every time the compouter starts its upd12860..."  it's from the Lstr folder you are going to whack. *;-)

Way to go! Get a custom T-shirt at the mall:  PEPER SURVIVOR

Yes...flush the Restore Points..,

Disable the Restore Point, reboot to flush it, thus 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

******************************************************************************************

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.

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. *;-)
