Hi Tygert0828,

You are way behind on Windows Updates. This leaves your computer open to many threats. You will just get infected again if you don't install these! Please update Windows and Internet Explorer. Download each critical update one by one, rebooting when necessary.. Repeat this until you get the message "no critical updates available". http://v4.windowsupdate.microsoft.com/

Then......

You have a coolwebsearch infection, among other things. Please download CWShredder written by Merijn Bellekom from Here

Press "Check for Update" and download any new updates available.

Close ALL browser windows or it may not work! Unzip it to a convenient location such as your Desktop and select "Fix" (do not just Scan). It will automatically remove the infections.

Then let's do some cleaning up first:

Download Adaware from: http://www.lavasoft.de/support/download/

Run Adaware, click the "Check for Updates now" link. Install the latest reference file

Configure Adaware for a "Full Scan".
Click on the Gear at the top of the start screen.
Click the "Scanning" button.
Under Drives & Folders, select "Scan within Archives".
Click on"Click here to select Drives + folders" and select your hard drives.
Under Memory & Registry, select all options.
Click the "Advanced" button.
Under "Log-file detail", select all options.
Click the "Tweak" button.
Expand "Scanning Engine" by clicking on the "+" (Plus) symbol) and select the following:
Include additional Ad-aware settings in logfile"
Unload recognized processes during scanning."
Under "Cleaning Engine", select the following:
"Automatically try to unregister objects prior to deletion."
"Let Windows remove files in use after reboot."
Click on "Proceed" to save these Preferences.
Click on the "Scan Now" button on the left.
Under "Select Scan Mode, be sure to select "Use Custom Scanning Options".
Select "Activate in-Depth scan".
Close all programs except ad-aware.
Click on "Next" in the bottom right corner to start the scan.
Remove all checked items.
If necessary, Adaware may prompt you to reboot to allow it to continue the removal process,


Download, install and UPDATE Spybot Search and Destroy 1.3. Scan and fix all items checked in RED.

Reboot and post a fresh HijackThis log.

Tom

thanks for replying, I did all the things you listed and here is the new hijack log. Is there anything else in my system that I can clean or erase out?
thanks for you help!

thanks,

Ok ashley, we're getting there!

Any idea why this is running?

O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [OLECMD] C:\WINDOWS\TASKS\OLECMD.EXE

It's a valid windows program:

http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/d...st_a2z_2yw4.asp

If you don't know, I would leave it alone for now....

I see HijackThis is running on your Desktop. Please open My Computer > double-click your C:\ drive > right-click > New > Folder > name it HJT and put the program (HijackThis) into that folder.

Logoff your internet connection. Please press Ctrl-Alt-Delete and open Task Manager. End the following processes (if running) by selecting it and pressing the End Process button and clicking Yes to the confirmation message:

MAIOP3.EXE

Run HijackThis, place a checkmark next to the following entries, close all other browsers and windows and click "fix checked".

O4 - HKCU\..\Run: [bEosRXK7W] MAIOP3.EXE

Boot into Safe Mode, search for and delete:

MAIOP3.EXE

Reboot normally and post a fresh log.

Tom

thanks,

Good work! Your system is clean!

Now, restart System Restore and create a new restore point.

1. Click Start > Settings > Control Panel.
2. Double-click System.
3. On the Performance tab click File System.
4. On the Troubleshooting tab, uncheck Disable System Restore.
5. Click OK. Click Yes, when you are prompted to restart Windows.
6. Create a new restore point.

(I gave you the instructions for XP earlier... sorry)

These are tools that will help heep you from getting infected again:

SpywareBlaster will block bad ActiveX and malevolent cookies. http://www.javacoolsoftware.com/spywareblaster.html

SpywareGuard is a real-time spyware scanner.
http://www.wilderssecurity.net/spywareguard.html

IE-SPYAD puts over 4000 sites in your restricted zone so you'll be protected when you visit innocent-looking sites that aren't actually innocent at all.
http://www.staff.uiuc.edu/~ehowes/resource.htm#IESPYAD

All are very small free programs. Occasionally check for updates.

Adjust your security settings for ActiveX:
Go to Internet Options/Security/Internet, press 'default level', then OK.
Now press "Custom Level."
In the ActiveX section, set the first two options ("Download signed and unsigned ActiveX controls) to 'prompt', and 'Initialize and Script ActiveX controls not marked as safe" to 'disable'.

Check for updates for Windows and Internet Explorer every week or so. Download each critical update one by one, rebooting when necessary.. Repeat this until you get the message "no critical updates available"

Thanks alot Tom, I really appreciate it!!!

Your welcome!
