Once your online virus scan has finished, download CWShredder and run that, plus also update spybot S&D to the latest definitions and run that as well and Ad-Aware 6.

There is a newer version of HijackThis (1.97.7) around so you may want to update that and use that for the next log if there is still a problem.

By and large, that is a clean log.
A lot of ActiveX downloads, but nothing to be really concerned over.

jrbarnett.

1 question...

R3 - Default URLSearchHook is missing

Remove that entry. AFAIK, it's a remnant from a hijack that's been rectified.

"'Tis an ill wind that blows no minds." - Malaclypse the Younger
 
...in reference to the last part of your question...I'm not sure. I read the thread you referenced and it appears that possibly something muddled with your LMHOSTS

I see that your problems came back. Are you disbaling system restore before you run these clean ups, then starting it again only after applying your fixes? You may have something nesting that's coming back up after reboot. Maybe post an up to the minute Hijack THis! log?

I'm new to the forum, but I've been reading it for a while. I've noticed that several technical folks have offered insight into which files should be deleted upon a user sending in his/her log from HiJackThis. I fixed my own files, but I'm attaching the log of a friend--It's more complex than mine. If anyone can tell us which files to delete, we would be very much in your debt. Thank You.

Begin by disabling System Restore.

Reboot.

Scratch that.
I went after those URLs because they looked suspect...but...should've looked before I leapt.
Those are HP search sites. There's not a thing wrong with that log as far as I can detect.

"'Tis an ill wind that blows no minds." - Malaclypse the Younger
 
Not sure if my friend is running XP. I'll find out. We'll also hold off on deleting the four HKCU files that are HP related. Any other suspicious looking files? I was concerned about a couple of the BHO files:
O2 - BHO: (no name) - {02478D38-C3F9-4efb-9B51-7695ECA05670} - C:\WINDOWS\Downloaded Program Files\ycomp5_1_4_0.dll
O2 - BHO: (no name) - {06849E9F-C8D7-4D59-B87D-784B7D6BE0B3} - C:\Program Files\Adobe\Acrobat 6.0\Reader\ActiveX\AcroIEHelper.dll

and a few of the other HKCU (non-HP) files:
O4 - HKCU\..\Run: [MSMSGS] "C:\Program Files\Messenger\msmsgs.exe" /background
R1 - HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main,Search Bar = R1 - HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main,Search Page = R0 - HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main,Start Page = R1 - HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\SearchURL,(Default) = R1 - HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Internet Settings,ProxyOverride = localhost

Thank you for your feedback!
 
She is using XP, so I'll have her disable System Restore. Any thoughts on my previous message in regard to identifying bad files from the HijackThis report?

Thanks
 
None of the above are suspect.
Most look like the user put them there...
For example:

O2 - BHO: (no name) - {02478D38-C3F9-4efb-9B51-7695ECA05670} - C:\WINDOWS\Downloaded Program Files\ycomp5_1_4_0.dll
is Yahoo

The other BHO is Adobe Acrobat

The yahoo entries found here:
R1 - HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main,Search Bar = R1 - HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main,Search Page = R0 - HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main,Start Page = R1 - HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\SearchURL,(Default) = only indicate that the user prefers a Yahoo home page/search page.

O4 - HKCU\..\Run: [MSMSGS] "C:\Program Files\Messenger\msmsgs.exe" /background
indicates that WIndows Messenger is running in the abckground. Normal. XP is setup so by default. This can be a bugger if ad sites lock onto you. You can turn this off like so:

And...turn System Restore back on. This is useful/necessary. You only want to disable it when doing virus removal/malware cleanup, etc. so that removed items don't restore themselves.

Again, the log looks good. I'd leave it be. You may just want to turn off Messenger. (This is not to be confused with MSN Messaging, etc.)



"'Tis an ill wind that blows no minds." - Malaclypse the Younger
 
I greatly appreciate your taking the time to review the log and explain the purpose of the files I thought were suspect. I appreciate your providing clarification as well.

Her machine has been running very slowly and she assumed that a virus or worm (or some form of spyware) was the cause. I suggested HijackThis and Spyhunter (she already is using Norton). Aside from what Spyhunter found, there doesn't seem to be anything else we can find that would be causing her system to run so slow.

Any thoughts?
 
Fish around in the XP forum. Start with advanced search, then fall back to reposting there if no luck. There've been numerous discussions/resulting solutions re: system slowdown, etc. Good luck!
