    Okay, somehow your output has changed since I started analyzing it and the post was moved. Rather than reanalyze it again from scratch I am posting the original analyses minus all the R1 and R0 entries that had since been removed. If you fail to find something I say you should remove than you already removed it :)

    Hi RabidScouser!

    Welcome to Wilders!

    First, can you please download and run CWShredder from

    http://www.spywareinfoforum.com/~merijn/files/cwshredder.zip

    Once this has run its course, please close out of all other programs / windows and end the following processes

    C:\Program Files\ISTsvc\istsvc.exe
    C:\WINDOWS\System32\svcinit.exe
    C:\WINDOWS\System32\shellexp.exe
    C:\WINDOWS\System32\svc.exe

    select and fix the following from within HijackThis (CW Shredder will take care of some but I list them here for the sake of completeness)

    O19 - User stylesheet: C:\WINDOWS\Web\win.def (file missing)
    O19 - User stylesheet: C:\WINDOWS\default.css (file missing) (HKLM)

    then do a reboot and delete the following;

    C:\Program Files\Power Scan (the entire folder)
    C:\Program Files\ISTsvc (the entire folder)
    C:\WINDOWS\System32\expup.exe
    C:\Documents and Settings\Leo Matlock\rundll32.exe
    c:\program files\GlobalDialer\tonex00052\736789.exe
    C:\Program Files\Common Files\GMT (the entire folder)
    C:\WINDOWS\System32\DReplace.dll
    C:\WINDOWS\System32\expext.dll
    C:\PROGRA~1\BARGAI~1\bin\apuc.dll
    C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM32\BrowserHelper.dll

    and then search for and delete the following files

    tapicfg.exe
    msapp.exe
    winmain.exe

    and then...

    Can you please download and run DCS's AutostartViewer from

    http://www.diamondcs.com.au/downloads/asviewer.zip

    Go to the "Main" menu and make sure that all three top options are selected and then press "Save" and then copy & paste the results here for us to review.


    Thanks,

    Dan

    Hi rabidscouse,

    Did you follow Dan's instructions before you made the ASViewer log?

    I see a lot of familiar ones in there, that should have been gone if you did. o_O

    Regards,

    Pieter

    I folowed them but as I said I could not get rid of svcholst from processes there were about four svchost processes on newtwork and local server and some blank in that section. I could always delete three but the lsat would not delete, and would result in the error message and PC rebooting which may have affected the rest of the prodecure I was instructed to follow.

    Hi Rabidscouser

    I don't see SVChost mentioned in Dan's post, and I don't think Dan wanted you to end the SVChost process. SVChost.exe is a system process that shouldn't be terminated (you found out the hard way).

    Please re-read Dan's post carefully. It seems he wanted you to:
    (1) Run CWShredder
    (2) Then terminate :
    istsvc.exe
    svcinit.exe
    shellexp.exe
    svc.exe
    (3) Then use HijackThis...
    etc. ...

    Regards,
    Optigrab ;)

    Hi rabidscouser,

    Please proceed as follows

    Click Start > Run > type or copy&paste msconfig > OK
    On the Startup tab remove the checkmarks before:
    - shellexp.exe en
    - li-tzone00028.exe -m

    On the General tab, click Selective Startup, and click to clear the Process Win.ini File.

    Then reboot and delete:
    C:\WINDOWS\System32\shellexp.exe
    c:\program files\GlobalDialer <= entire folder

    Keep us posted,

    Pieter

    Hi rabidscouser,

    I recommend that you rename your wininit.ini to something like wininit.suspect

    Then using Autostart Viewer I would look for the following entry and right-click on it and select "Delete registry value" (be extra certain you are deleteing the right ones!)

    HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run\Explorer
    C:\WINDOWS\System32\shellexp.exe en

    Then I would recommend that you download and install TDS from

    http://tds.diamondcs.com.au/index.php?page=download

    Once you have it installed and before you launch it you should manually download the latest database from that same page (save the file in the directory where you installed TDS

    When you launch TDS you should set all the sensitivity settings to max and do a full scan.

    You might also consider downloading PortExplorer from

    http://www.diamondcs.com.au/portexplorer/

    as this will show you all current connections or listening sockets/ports on your system. In particular you want to pay close attention to the remote and listening tabs to see if there is something out of place ( a program you can't account for or a remote site you have not visited)

    Hope this helps

    From the main TDS screen click on the "Scan Control" button. On the new screen check all items on the "Scan Options" tab (to enable all forms of scanning); then flip to the "Generic Detection" tab and check the items there and move the "Generic Sensitivity" slider all the way to the right (High). This sets TDS to maximum scanning.
