Hey people,

Don't know how I managed to allow these to get onto my computer but I have a virus now that does several things;

I use Firefox but this virus opens up my internet explorer in the background and starts opening various websites with videos playing (I have the sound of film trailers coming through my speakers). Once I end the iexplorer process in the taskmanager the sounds stop playing.

If I try and open IE the window opens but is swiftly followed by the error message that the program has encountered a problem and needs to close.

My Firefox won't open when I double click the logo...but if I double click like 10 times in a row it will open 4 windows and allow me to then browse the web

Finally, I know it's a virus as, when I search for anything in Google search, the results show as normal, but when I click a link, it opens in a new tab (which doesn't normally happen) and then redirects to a completely different website.

for example, if I search "virus check", the link to the Kaspersky website appears in the results...if I click that link it will redirect through various different websites;


then onto;


However if I click the cached link in the google search results it directs to the correct website.

also, every so often a blank IE window opens with the web address;


Does anyone know which virus this is and how I can get rid of it?

Many thanks in advance,

Jordan
 
Suggestions:

Download MBAM (Malware Bytes' AntiMalware):

MBAM

if it does not install, then DL it either on a clean PC or use the SAVE AS option and then rename the EXE file, e.g. TEST.EXE instead of MBAM.EXE

you also may have to install it in SAFE MODE with NETWORKING (F8 BOOT MENU)...

Super AntiSpyware

Same as above...

general advice:

1. Turn off SYSTEM RESTORE...
2. run both scans in SAFE MODE...

also posting a HiJackThis LOG, would allow us to check if the system is further compromised and to tell you what to delete (using HJT)...

How to ask a question, when posting them to a professional forum.
Only ask questions with yes/no answers if you want "yes" or "no"
 
Thanks for your help bud, much appreciated -I downloaded MBAM on Firefox (which doesn't offer a save as function) and it downloaded fine. However, when I double clicked to install the program, it doesn't load. I tried "run as" from the right click menu but after choosing the user, it cums up with an error then cancels. If I try downloading from IE, there is no "save as option", and it just stalls on the "finishing installation" part of the download.

I have tried downloading in safe mode with networking (F8) but my Firefox and IE says they are not connected to the internet when I try and load the download page?

I tried the SuperAntispyware, downloaded fine (firefox) but when i try and run it the "...has encountered a problem and needs to close" error cums up straight away?

Am I fooked?! haha

Thanks again for ur help

 
Oh and I had trouble installing the HiJack this program, but I installed as a .ZIP then renamed the file, which worked....So I'm thinking if someone can host a .zip file for the MBAM or super anitspyware that might work? Wishful thinking maybe! haha.

Anyways, the log from hijack this goes as follows:

I must say that "DLACTRLW.exe" in that log is a process that I haven't noticed before.....and "ending" the process in the task manager doesn't work...just stays there?

cheers again
 
My FireFox, version 3.0.13, does offer SAVE AS, it is called SAVE LINK AS...

This is something I do not do normally, but seeing that you are desperate here are several versions you could download... though I would suggest that you download them on a clean PC and then rename them there...

HiJackThis LOG...

the following needs to be deleted ASAP:

then I would also suggest that you uninstall those TOOLBARS that are running rampart on your system, e.g. ASK, Yahoo, Google, etc. (if you need one then by all means leave just ONE)...

Here are TWO LIVE CD's, which have proven to be very helpful in fighting malware with the Windows OS out of the equation...

Ben, ur a star mate....Mbam worked a treat and I have followed ur advice regarding the unnecessary toolbars etc.

Most problems have now been fixed so many thanks for taking time out to help me mate.

Only problem I have now is the Google installer keeps showing a "...has encountered a problem and needs to close error" every half an hour or so....but that's something I can sort out on my own.

Again, thanks for taking time out to help me, greatly appreciated
 
Glad it helped, and that you are up and running...

about the Google installer problem, see if there is an entry in the ADD&REMOVE SOFTWARE Control Panel app and then delete it there...

alternatively you may have to install another GOOGLE app, e.g. Earth View, and then get rid of the GOOGLE INSTALLER...

jordan360,

Welcome to tek-tips!

On tek-tips when you find someone's reply/assistance useful and helpful, it helps everyone else out if you can make it known by clicking the link under their post that says [blue]Thank BadBigBen for this valuable post![/blue] No, I'm not shouting, that's just the way it's written. [wink]

Otherwise, here are a few general "clean-up"/"fix-up" apps that may help after you've used MBAM and/or SuperAntiSpyware, etc, to clean up your system:

CCleaner

IObit Advanced System Care

Glary Utilities

From the times I've used them on several different PCs when helping folks, as well as my own PCs, I've only once seen any issue out of any of them. On one occasion, after running CCleaner's clean-up, a cheapie hunting game quit working. It was run off a CD, and once it was reinstalled, all was back to normal... and all their other issues had been taken care of at that time. CCleaner was part of the particular solution. [smile]
