I'd like you to do a couple of trojan scans. Install and perform a full system scan with each of these trial programs:

Trojan Hunter

http://www.misec.net/trojanhunter/

and...

DiamondCS TDS-3

http://tds.diamondcs.com.au/

Install the program, but do not scan with it yet!

Update the Radius definitions file. Right click this link and select "Save as". Save it to the directory where you installed TDS3 and let it replace the old Radius file.

http://www.diamondcs.com.au/tds/radius.td3

Start TDS3 > at the top of the program click System Testing > Full system scan > after scanning right-click the report, save as scandump.txt > submit the scandump.txt file into your next post.

Finally, right click the items in the list that come up a a Positive Identification and select delete.

Please post your results and a fresh HijackThis log.
Tom

blu,

You're doing good! Has Haxdoor been removed?

Please update HijackThis, you are using an outdated version. The new version does a better job of detecting malware:

Open HijackThis, click Config > Misc Tools > Check for Update online

Or download a copy of version 1.99 at:

http://www.majorgeeks.com/download3155.html

If you downloaded the newer version, please delete the older version you are using now.

Post a fresh log with this new version.

Tom

Hi Tom,
I believe haxdoor-h is no longer with us. Found it nestled in any of a number of RAdmin files. Efforts to delete were foiled as it would just settle into a new RAdmin home. So, we deleted all the RAdmin files and ran Spybot. I had to laugh, the poor sucker had no where to go...haha...There it was, all naked and sh*t, wriggling hopelessly, with no where to hide. We gave it a dishonorable discharge and booted it in the butt on it's way out his hack doe, which we then sealed.

I ran Trend Micro...it found that NARRATOR culprit again which I deleted.

I think I have the latest HJT version, and here is my latest log:

With your affirmation of a clean slate, I would like to get/buy some anti-virus program. Suggestions?

Thanx again, for without your support, I would have given up.
I know that what you're doing takes a lot of knowledge and patience. I don't know what you get in return except a lot of thank yous from (hopefully) most of the people. So this must be at least one reason you do it. Consider this, the biggest THANK YOU of all.

Thanks blu for the kind words. Knowing that I am helping people, that might otherwise lose thier personal data or continually reformat, plus gaining more knowledge with each person I help is what it's all about

We've got a baddie that keep coming back:

I'd like you you download Pocket Killbox. Download it to your Desktop. Run the program, copy and paste C:\WINNT\system32\vruvur.exe into the window. Click the Delete on Reboot button. Click End Explorer Shell While Killing File. Then press Delete file (The Red X). Then click OK. Answer Yes to "Do you want to reboot now". Be careful this is a powerful tool and is unforgiving once you instruct it to delete something.

Next...

As for an antivirus, I'm glad you asked

AVG has a new free version available: AVG7 Free edition.

http://free.grisoft.com/freeweb.php.

If you have AVG6 previously installed, AVG7 will automatically remove the previous installation.

After you install it, make sure you update it right away and perform a full system scan.

If you like the program, I suggest purchasing the Pro version, it has much more features.

Please post a final log.

Tom

Tom,

The good Lord works in mysterious ways. I'm on my laptop because my cpu (the patient) is in a coma. It's official now, I know enough to be dangerous.

I knew I needed a registry clean. I went on line, dnld. and ran 4 different scans, all claiming to be free, and all of them would remove problems, but only a fraction of what I needed for free. I wish I wouldn't have accepted the free. At present, all I can get is a black screen, w/ a tiny flashing light I can't control. I thought I was gonna make some progress. One of the programs found over 1000 problems......... Now I only have one.

If the coma is not fatal, I might know sm1 that can help me. I should know in the next cpl. days. I will follow these latest instructions if it wakes up.

And you're rt.... smthg. was sending a steady stream of pop ups......... At least that has stopped.

But it wasn't haxdoor. No matter what happens, I will always cherish the memory of ousting that!

blu,

I'm not one to trust much software that will clean the registry. I'm sorry to hear you had a bad experience with it.

Can you boot into Safe Mode? How about Last Known Good configuration?

Windows keeps several copies of your registry (a new copy is made each successful boot).

Actually.......

Microsoft has a Windows 2000 registry repair tool available. I used it a couple of months ago!

ChkReg

Last I knew, you needed to download the floppy setup program for XP (6 disks), you create the disks but the last one is altered to repair a Windows 2000 installation. Worked great when I used it.

Tom
