Ok, what I would like you to do is post a new HJT log so I can make sure nothing has changed since your last log.

Smile Re: home page defaults/popups etc

Hiya I noticed the hjt posts are ending so I hope you can help fix this once and for all!

Each time I go online I get the rescue "search page" plus one "stop nasty pop-ups" window ads - please tell me how to alter this registry setting and remove any suspicious files you notice below

THANKS!!!

Ok, we shall give this a shot. I may have to pull in an expert if we don't get it the first time around.

I would like you to read through this first and print it so that you will see what you are going to do and so you have a hard copy to follow along when you can't be on the internet to follow.

You will be restarting into Safe mode later.
Go here for directions if you need help:

http://service1.symantec.com/SUPPORT/ts...2409420406
---------
Download CWShredder from this page if you don't have it already:

http://www.computercops.biz/downloads-cat-14.html

Don't run it yet.
--------


Because XP will not always show you hidden files and folders by default.
Reset your search settings first.

Open Folder Options>view and check your settings:
Select
Show hidden files and folders
Display the contents of system folders
Uncheck: Hide protected operating system files
Next go to Search and scrolldown using the scroll bar on the right. Go down to More advanced options and click.
Be sure the first three boxes are selected:
Search System folders
Search Hidden Files and folders
Search SubFolders
----------



Copy the contents of the Quote Box to Notepad.

Name the file as fix.reg
Save as Type: All Files
****Save on the desktop



Quote:
REGEDIT4


[-HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall\HSA]

[-HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall\SE]

[-HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall\SW]

[-HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\O?’ŽrtñåȲ$Ó]

[-HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\ControlSet001\Services\O?’ŽrtñåȲ$Ó]

[-HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\ControlSet002\Services\O?’ŽrtñåȲ$Ó]

[-HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\ControlSet003\Services\O?’ŽrtñåȲ$Ó]



-----------------------


Restart into Safe Mode.

On the desktop, double click on fix.reg to run it.
---------------------

Go to Start>Run and type Hijackthis. Press enter to start HijackThis. DO NOT OPEN ANYTHING ELSE!

Select these items and press the fix checked button:

C:\WINDOWS\addxd.exe


Go to Internet Options>Programs
Click the reset Web Settings Button to reset your home and search pages.

Follow instructions here to replace it: http://www.spywareinfoforum.com/~mer...s.html#control

Check System32 to be sure you have a file named Shell.dll

If you do not have one, go to System32\dllcache
Find shell.dll and right click on it. Choose Copy from the menu.
Open System32 and right click on an empty space in the window. Choose Paste from the menu.

Go here and follow the directions to reset your ActiveX

Run HijackThis again and post the new log in your next reply in this same topic. I would also like to see a new startup tracker log also, so run a new one of those and also post that log.
