Here is my new log. Thanks, Bob

Bob,

You might want to print these instructions for reference or copy and paste them into notepad and save them on your desktop, as you will be off the internet while using HijackThis.

If you have any questions before starting the fix, please don't hesitate to ask!

P2P Networking is a totally useless Kazaa add-on, and it's been reported to be responsible for serious system slowdowns.

Go to Start > Control Panel > Add/Remove programs

Uninstall P2P networking

Next...

You have Messenger Plus installed. It is an add-on program not written by Microsoft. It contain's the LOP infection (it's what you are infected with now) and it's best to uninstall the program. If you feel you need this program, remove it and reinstall it without installing the "Sponsor" feature.

Please go to Start > Control Panel > Add/Remove Programs > remove Plus

If you remove Messenger Plus, please remove the entries below marked in RED along with the others.

Next...

Download Ad-Aware SE Personal Edition version 1.05 from:

http://www.lavasoft.de/support/download/

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

Just update it, do not scan with it yet!

Next...

Boot into Safe Mode. Reboot your computer, start tapping F8 when it first starts booting, select Safe Mode.

Run HijackThis, click scan, place a checkmark next to the following items. Close all browsers and any other windows or the fix may not work! Click "fix checked". It is OK if some of these items are no longer listed.

Next....

Go to Start > Run > type "cleanmgr" (without the quotes). > Select the drive to clean up (usually C ) > Place a checkmark next to the following:

Temporary Internet Files
Recycle Bin
Temporary Files

Then click OK.

Next...

Perform a "Full system scan" with Adaware. Allow it to remove anything it finds.

Reboot normally.

I see you are using AVG6. The product end of life for version 6 is December 31. I suggest upgrading to version 7:

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

AVG7 will automatically remove the previous installation.

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

Please post a fresh HijackThis log.

Here is my new log. Thanks, it seems to be working fine now. I wasn't able to run cleanmgr, it locked up my system.

Thanks again,

Bob,

It seems cleanmgr is running in the background:

C:\WINNT\system32\cleanmgr.exe

Please reboot your computer.

This is an important step, let's try to do it manually:

Launch IE > go to Tools > Internet Options > click Delete Files > place a checkmark next to "delete all offline content" > click OK.

Go to Start > Run > enter %temp% in the box > hit Enter > delete all files and folders in this Temp folder. Some will not delete, this is normal.

Open My Computer > navigate to C:\Documents and Settings\Bob Melosi\Local Settings\Temp > delete all files and folders in this Temp folder.

Let me know how it goes.

Tom

I completed all the steps and things are running just fine.
Thanks,

Bob

Great to hear your computer is running better!

I don't see a firewall running in your log.

ZoneAlarm has a free firewall:

Because you were infected, backups of the malware may be in System Restore.

1 Right-click My Computer, and then click Properties.
2 Click the System Restore tab.
3 Check the "Turn off System Restore" or "Turn off System Restore on all drives" check box.
4 Click Apply
5 this will delete all existing restore points. Click Yes to do this.
6 Click OK.

Reboot

1 Right-click My Computer, and then click Properties.
2 Click the System Restore tab.
3 Uncheck the "Turn off System Restore" or "Turn off System Restore on all drives" check box.
4 Click Apply
5 Click OK.

Create a new Restore Point:

Start > All Programs > Accessories > System Tools > System Restore > tick Create a Restore Point > Next > enter a name for the Restore Point Creation (Today, Removed Spyware, etc.) > Create > Close.

The date and time will automatically be added.

Then....

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

SpywareBlaster prevents the installation of ActiveX-based spyware, adware, browser hijackers, dialers, and other potentially unwanted pests. Blocks spyware/tracking cookies in Internet Explorer and Mozilla/Firefox. Restricts the actions of potentially dangerous sites in InternetExplorer.

http://www.javacoolsoftware.com/spywareblaster.html

SpywareGuard provides a real-time protection solution against spyware that is a great addition to SpywareBlaster's protection method.

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

MVPS Hosts file replaces your current HOSTS file with one containing well know ad sites etc. Basically, this prevents your computer from connecting to those sites by redirecting them to 127.0.0.1 which is your local computer

http://mvps.org/winhelp2002/hosts.htm

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

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"

Please take a minute to read: So how did I get infected in the first place?
