    Hi,

    When I boot up my computer, the homepage of Internet Explorer has been changed to "about:blank", a shortcut for some casino advertisement has been added to my desktop, a bunch of advertisement websites have been added to Internet Explorer's Favorites section, I keep getting numerous pop-up advertisements appearing, and Internet Explorer will jump to advertisement sites periodically. I first tried putting on Pest Patrol and running it and Norton Antivirus. These two programs detected several viruses, which I deleted, but when I rebooted the computer, I would still have the same problems listed above. Pest Patrol has an option that allows you to prevent the homepage from being changed, so I keep getting these messages from Pest Patrol asking if it's ok that IE's homepage be changed to "about:blank". Sometimes Pest Patrol stops it and sometimes it doesn't.

    The second thing I tried was installing and running Spy-Bot, but again, upon rebooting my computer, the problems persisted. The latest thing I have tried is installing and running Ad-Aware and then running HijackThis, as was suggested elsewhere on this site. Any help anyone can give me would be much appreciated. Thanks! Here is my log from HijackThis:

    Re: need help with Spyware problems please

    Hello rkoch,

    I would first like you to download Adaware if you don't already have it (don't run it yet, but I would like you to open it and update the reference file and then close it.)

    Next, Download and install APM from: http://www.diamondcs.com.au/index.php?page=apm

    Close all windows except HijackThis and check these lines then click on Fix:

    Don't reboot yet.

    Start APM (the program you downloaded second)
    In the upper window select explorer.exe
    In the lower window find and rightclick C:\WINNT\System32\winnet.dll
    and this one:C:\WINNT\System32\aak.dll
    Select Unload DLL and click OK on the prompts that follow.

    Reboot and scan with AdAware (the first program you downloaded)

    Reboot. Now, do the following

    Copy the contents of the quote box to Notepad.
    Name the file Appinit.bat
    Save as type All Files
    Save on the Desktop.



    Double click on Appinit.bat
    This will create a file on the desktop named windows.txt (if you don't see it on the desktop, do a search for it.)
    Copy and paste that log here.

    Hi,

    Thanks for getting back to me Taz! I have done everything up to running APM, but I cannot find "C:\WINNT\System32\aak.dll in the lower window of APM. I have another problem now, too. When I posted my original message, Notepad.exe was working fine. Now it seems Notepad.exe is no longer on my computer or is not accessible...

    Re: need help with Spyware problems please

    Hello,

    OK, throught up a new log and do this part also:

    Copy the contents of the quote box to Notepad.
    Name the file Appinit.bat
    Save as type All Files
    Save on the Desktop.



    Double click on Appinit.bat
    This will create a file on the desktop named windows.txt (if you don't see it on the desktop, do a search for it.)
    Copy and paste that log here.

    Next, go here: http://www.spywareinfoforum.com/~merijn/winfiles.html#notepad

    In the second Box you will see notepad.exe, click on it and it will take you to where you can redownload a copy.

    Hello,

    It makes since to me, there is a hidden dll in there. The hidden dll is
    C:\WINNT\System32\mschja.dll

    What I need from you now before we fix it, is this:

    Do you have XP Home or Professional?

    Is your file system NTFS or Fat32? To find this out just go to Start>My Computer and highlight your C: drive and right click on it. Near the top it will tell you what file system you have.

    Hello,

    If you don't know how to start in Safe Mode, go here and learn. You will need to do this later:
    safe mode

    If you don't have CWShredder yet, download it now:
    CWShredder Open it, check for updates and then close it. Do not run it yet.

    Ok, next step:(print this)

    Download this file and then immediately sign off the
    internet and stay off until all steps are finished.

    http://computercops.biz/modules.php?name=Forums&file=download&id=1183

    Extract the batch file (hiving.bat) and run it. If you have script blocking enabled you will get a warning. Please allow this to run. The script is just producing a message box. Double click on the batch to run it. After a reboot the super hidden nasty file will no longer be loaded and will be visible. This will end the constant reinstall of about:Blank.

    ----------------------
    You run Home and so you will restart into Safe mode.

    Restart into Safe mode and find this file:
    C:\WINNT\System32\mschja.dll

    Use the security tab on mschja.dll and take ownership.
    Change the 'everyone special' to
    'you> with Admin rights-> FULL control
    Then try to delete it, if that fails try to rename
    it first to different name+ext.
    Example:
    log.dll>bleh.txt
    bleh.txt > badfile.111

    Once you have successfully deleted the file restart into Regular Windows mode.

    Extract and Run CWShredder immediately.
    Press the fix button to clean.

    Restart and run hijackThis again.

    Post your new log here in your next reply.

    Also please create a new Windows.txt and attach it so we can doublecheck.

    Re: need help with Spyware problems please

    Hello,

    Well, the hidden dll is gone, which is good. Did you run CWShredder when you were done? If not, do so now.

    Run HJT again and check these items and then on Fix:

    R1 - HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main,HomeOldSP = about:blank

    Reboot and post a new HJT log here.

    Re: need help with Spyware problems please

    Hi again,

    I ran CWShredder and that took care of the "sp" files. When I ran HijackThis, none of the files you wanted me to fix were present. I rebooted and ran HijackThis again and here is the log of that. I haven't been getting anymore alerts about my homepage changing and no more popups and other assorted junk showing up since I got rid of that nasty hidden file...
