First:
Please download this to fix the start.chm hijack.
http://tools.zerosrealm.com/startchmfix.exe

Run it and extract the folder to the desktop preferably.
Open the folder after extracted.
Double click the fix.bat

Please make sure all Internet Explorers are closed.

Only run it once or you will lose the backups although they shouldn't be needed.

Notepad will open at the end with a message and the bad file listing at the end.
Please post that bad file listing line here.


Second:
1.Download the Hoster from here:
http://members.aol.com/toadbee/hoster.zip
2. Install the program and run it.
3. Press 'Restore Original Hosts' and press 'OK'
4. Exit Program.

Note: This program also has a Hosts file backup facility that may want to use if you have added custom entries to the Hosts file.


Third:
=== All in Safe Mode ===

Before we begin, please be sure that HiJackThis is in its own folder. This will allow us to use backups to restore entries if necessary. Please do not put HiJackThis in a temporary folder, or on the Desktop. I suggest using 'c:\program files\hijackthis\' or C:\HiJackThis\, but any name you choose is fine.

Reboot in Safe Mode* and run HiJackThis. <-- IMPORTANT

Check the following items in HijackThis.
O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [Msbb.exe] Msbb.exe
O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [Microsoft Update] snlogsvc.exe
O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [Microsoft Updating] syswrk.exe

Close all windows except HijackThis and click Fix checked.

While still in Safe Mode*, delete the following: (you may need to show hidden files**)
C:\WINDOWS\System32\Msbb.exe
C:\WINDOWS\System32\snlogsvc.exe
C:\WINDOWS\System32\syswrk.exe
C:\WINDOWS\System32\scvhost.exe (be careful, the real file svchost.exe)

*How to Boot into Safe mode: http://service1.symantec.com/SUPPORT/tsgen...001052409420406
**Show Hidden and System files and folders
http://www.xtra.co.nz/help/0,,4155-1916458,00.html

Also, uncheck the boxes for hiding known file extensions and hiding protected operating system files. We want to see it all. When we finish here, it would be a good idea to rehide the protected operating system files but leave the rest to be shown.

Reboot in normal mode.

HiJackThis version 198.0 is now available.
If you do not already have it installed, download it from here:
http://209.133.47.12/~merijn/files/HijackThis.exe
http://downloads.net-integration.net/HijackThis.exe
http://www.computercops.biz/downloads-file-328.html

Run HiJackThis again and post a new log in this thread.

Thanks for the effort so far. I wanted to be sure the CHM exploit was removed. We have one more thing to then you should be clean.

Download LSPfix here: »www.cexx.org/lspfix.htm

Launch the application, and click the "I know what I'm doing" checkbox.
Check all instances of osmim.dll (and nothing else) , and move them to the "Remove" pane.
Then click Finish

Reboot


Then run HiJackThis again and post the log in this thread for final review.

Great ,clean at last! The missing files in the O9 entries is an issue with HiJackThis. Do not be concerned about them, they are there.


Here is some info that may help you avoid spyware. Some if it you have alreadyt implemented, but I would rather be safe, even at the risk of repeating.

At last, your system is clean and free of spyware! Want to keep it that way?

Here are some simple steps you can take to reduce the chance of infection in the future.

1. Visit Windows Update: <-- YOU NEED TO DO THIS!!
Make sure that you have all the Critical Updates recommended for your operating system and IE. The first defense against infection is a properly patched OS.
a. Windows Update: http://v4.windowsupdate.microsoft.com/en/default.asp

1. Adjust your security settings for ActiveX:]
Go to Internet Options/Security/Internet, press 'default level', then OK.
Now press "Custom Level."
In the ActiveX section, set the first option, 'Download signed controls', to 'Prompt; set the
second option, 'Download unsigned controls', to 'Disable'; and finally, set 'Initialize and Script ActiveX controls not marked as safe" to 'Disable'.

2. Download and install the following free programs
a. SpywareBlaster: http://www.javacoolsoftware.com/spywareblaster.html
b. SpywareGuard: http://www.wilderssecurity.net/spywareguard.html
c. IE/Spyad: https://netfiles.uiuc.edu/ehowes/www/resource.htm

1. Install Spyware Detection and Removal Programs:
You may also want to consider installing either or both of AdAware (free version) and Spybot S&D (freeware). Use these programs to regularly scan your system for and remove many forms of spyware/malware.
a. AdAware: http://www.lavasoft.de/
b. Spybot S&D: http://security.kolla.de/index.php?lang=en&page=download


For more information about Spyware, the tools available, and other informative material, including information on how you may have been infected in the first place, please check out this link: http://forum.gladiator-antivirus.com/index...?showtopic=9857


Good luck, and thanks for coming to our forums for help with your security and malware issues.
