Hi there!

Need help to clean up my computer. My start page wants to change to
http://win-eto.com/hp.htm?id=9 every time i open my browser and also redirects
m to http://t.swapx.cc/h.php?aid=20009 everytime i try to log in on hotmail for example. i have used CWShredder and it deleted on file. also used Spyboot search&destroy wich removed some files, but CoolWWWSearch(2 entries) always "returns" (even if i get no entries using CWShredder again) together with DSO Exploit (5 entries)

So i really need help to get this fixed

Thanks in advanced
Markus

First:
I recommend you remove both Spyware Begone and Spyware Vanisher if you ahve not already paid for them. Both are considered "rogue'" programs and can be replaced by the superior AdAware and Spybot S&D, both of which are free or have a free version. Here is a link for more information: http://www/spywarewarrior.com/rogue_anti-spyware.htm


Second:
Download DLLCompare from here:
http://download.broadbandmedic.com/DllCompare.exe

Copy the program to its own folder and double click on it.
Press the 'Run Locate.com' button

That should finish quickly, then:
Press the 'Compare' button.

That will run for a while longer.

When it is finished, press the 'Make A Log of What was Found' button
and post the log in this thread.

Press 'Exit' to quit program.


Third:
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.

Check the following items in HiJackThis:
R3 - URLSearchHook: IncrediFindBHO Class - {0199DF25-9820-4bd5-9FEE-5A765AB4371E} - C:\PROGRA~1\INCRED~1\BHO\INCFIN~1.DLL (file missing)

O2 - BHO: (no name) - {467FAEB2-5F5B-4c81-BAE0-2A4752CA7F4E} - C:\WINDOWS\System32\4GHW4E~1.DLL

O20 - AppInit_DLLs: hkc1u73pdb36o.dll



Close all open windows except HiJackThis and press 'Fix Checked'.

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

**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 198.2 is now available.
If you do not already have it installed, download it from here:
http://www.computercops.biz/downloads-file-328.html
http://tomcoyote.org/hjt/

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


Second:
=== Step 1 - Get File Info ===

You have a CoolWebSearch variant which requires special treatment to fix.


Download FindnFix.exe from here:
http://www10.brinkster.com/expl0iter/freeatlast/FNF/ or
http://downloads.subratam.org/FINDnFIX.exe

Double Click on the FindnFix.exe and it will install the batch file in its own folder.

Open the FindnFix folder and double click on !LOG!.bat

IMPORTANT! Before you run this tool please close ALL running programs and ALL open windows except for the FindnFix folder.


Relax, sit back and wait a few minutes while the program collects the necessary information.


*NOTE:If your AntiVirus is running a scriptblocker, when you run this tool, you will probably receive an alert warning you that the script is running. "Allow" the script to run.


When the program is finished:

Open the FindnFix folder.
1. Post the contents of Log.txt in this thread.
2. Attach file Win.txt to the same post. (Please attach, do not post)

(If this board does not provide the ability to attach documents to your post, then please post the Win.txt file in this thread)

First:
FIndnFix was negative so please delete the entire folder.. We will not need it any more.


Second:
Please download and install Registrar Lite (freeware) from here:
http://www.resplendence.com/download/reglite.exe

Be sure it is installed to its own folder.

Run Registrar Lite.
Copy the following and paste it into the Address Bar and press 'Go'
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Windows

Locate AppInit_dlls in the rgiht-hand pane and double click on it.
Erase the value and press 'OK'

Exit Registrar Lite.


Third:
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 - Global Startup: winlogin.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\winlogin.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 198.2 is now available.
If you do not already have it installed, download it from here:
http://www.computercops.biz/downloads-file-328.html
http://tomcoyote.org/hjt/

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

Hi!

i deleted entire folder findnfix

nothing happened when i tried to start it so i jumped to step 3:
i ran hijackthis in safe mode, 04...GlobalStartup\winlogin.exe didn't exist
couldn't either find C\WINDOWS\winlogin.exe to delete

everytime i start up my computer in the morning i run CWShredder and it finds CWS.IEengineand i still have problems with my browser wanting to redirect me.

We will use regedit instead of reglite. A little more cumbersome to navigate but it will do the job.

Start -> Run -> regedit
Open HKey_Local_Machine Key (press on +)
Open Software
Open Microsoft
Open WindowsNT
Open CurrentVersion
Open Windows

In the right-hand pane double click on AppInit_dlls.
Erase the value and press OK
Close regedit.

Reboot in Safe Mode and delete:
hkc1u73pdb36o.dll ( it will be in c:\windows\ or c:\windows\system32\)



Check the following items in HiJackThis:
O2 - BHO: (no name) - {467FAEB2-5F5B-4c81-BAE0-2A4752CA7F4E} - C:\WINDOWS\System32\4GHW4E~1.DLL

More to do....

After you have sent the files to me (I really want winlogin.exe) then do this:

Boot into Safe Mode
Delete C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Start Menu\winlogin.exe


While still in safe mode:
Check the following items in HiJackThis:
O4 - Global Startup: winlogin.exe

Close all open windows except HiJackThis and press 'Fix Checked'.

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

i have to add that i haven't done so we don't get confused.

1:Please zip and email to following file(s) to me:
C:\Windows\System32\hkc1u73pdb36o.dll
C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\StartMenu\winlogin.exe
(couldn't find the files)


2:"More to do....

After you have sent the files to me (I really want winlogin.exe) then do this:

Boot into Safe Mode
Delete C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Start Menu\winlogin.exe

Some progress has been made on this one.

Afteryou send the file (if possible), try this:



Go Here: http://download.broadbandmedic.com and download Pocket KillBox

Run Killbox.exe and be sure that 'Delete on Reboot is checked'

Use the Folder button to the right of the Address Bar and locate the file to delete (C:\Windows\System32\hkc1u73pdb36o.dll) and then press the Delete Button (at the far right).

Reboot.

After rebooting, make sure the file is gone.


Then...

Check the following items in HiJackThis:
O20 - AppInit_DLLs: hkc1u73pdb36o.dll

Close all open windows except HiJackThis and press 'Fix Checked'.

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