You may want to print out these instructions for reference, since you will have to restart your computer during the fix.

Please download FixWareout from one of these sites:
http://downloads.subratam.org/Fixwareout.exe
http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/files/lonny/Fixwareout.exe

Save it to your desktop and run it. Click Next, then Install, make sure "Run fixit" is checked and click Finish.
The fix will begin; follow the prompts. You will be asked to reboot your computer; please do so. Your system may take longer than usual to load; this is normal.

Once the desktop loads a text file will open (report.txt), you can close it - the file has already been saved.

Finally, please post the contents of the text file that opened earlier (you can find it at C:\fixwareout\report.txt ), along with a new HijackThis log into this topic.

**If you receive an error message while trying to run FixWareout, copy autoexec.nt from the C:\WINDOWS\repair folder to C:\WINDOWS\system32 folder, and run FixWareout again.

Redirects should have stopped, correct?

Please download ATF Cleaner by Atribune.
This program is for XP and Windows 2000 only

  Click the Empty Selected button.

----------------------------------------------------

Establish an internet connection & perform an online scan with Internet Explorer at Kaspersky Online Scanner

Answer Yes, when prompted to install an ActiveX component.

• The program will then begin downloading the latest definition files.
• Once the files have been downloaded click on NEXT
• Locate the Scan Settings button & configure to:
  • Scan using the following Anti-Virus database:
    • Extended
  • Scan Options:
    • Scan Archives
      [*]Scan Mail Bases
• Click OK & have it scan My Computer
• Once the scan is complete, it will display if your system has been infected. It does not provide an option to clean/disinfect. We only require a report from it.
• Click the Save as Text button to save the file to your desktop so that you may post it in your next reply

* Turn off the real time scanner of any existing antivirus program while performing the online scan

Note for Internet Explorer 7 users: If at any time you have trouble viewing the accept button of the licence, click on the Zoom tool located at the bottom right of the IE window and set the zoom to 75 %. Once the license accepted, reset to 100%.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 

yes, redirect is gone.

Thank you Thank you Thank you Thank you Thank you Thank you Thank you
Thank you Thank you Thank you

I tried the ATF cleaner it kept failing to load, so I lowered the security on IE and it did the same thing. Oh well....

Any background on the redirect? Does it attack the registry or IE java?

Scott

 

Not sure what you mean about ATF Cleaner failing to load. It's a small temp file cleaning utility which you download to your system and then execute.

Were you able to run the online scan at Kaspersky?

 

Failed to load Kaspersky Online Scanner Active X control

You must have administrative rights on this computer.
you must also have the IE security settings to the Medium level.

 

Hmmm, well, let's try one of these other online scans....no need to do both, but see if you can get one to run. Otherwise, I'll advise an onboard scanner to look for remnants.

Perform an online scan with Internet Explorer with Panda ActiveScan

1. Click on
   located at the bottom of the page.
2. A "pop up" window will appear. * Please ensure that your pop up blocker doesn't block it *
3. Enter your e-mail address, country, and state & click "Free Online Scan" *The download of the 8 MB Panda's ActiveX control will take place*

Begin the scan by selecting

• If it finds any malware, it will offer you a report.
• Please ignore any entry it finds and the offer to buy the program to remove the entry, as we will address this later.
• Click on
  then click

* You needn't remain online while it's doing the scan but you have to re-connect after it has finished to see the report.
* Turn off the real time scanner of any existing antivirus program while performing the online scan

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Go here and do the BitDefender online virus scan.

• Click "I Agree" to agree to the EULA.
• Allow the ActiveX control to install when prompted.
• Leave the scanning options at default and press "Click here to scan" to begin the scan.
• Please refrain from using the computer until the scan is finished.
• When the scan is finished, click on "Click here to export the scan results"
• Save the report to your desktop then come back here and post it in your next reply.

 

sorry, got a little busy.....
Here is the results from pandasoftware.
Also, I now have to log into my favorite websites each visit.
Can I reset this so the web sire will remember my login and password (like before) I'm assuming this is some cookie setting?

Thanks

Clearing cookies and temp files should only require you to log in once when you revisit.

Seems like an autocomplete function.

In IE, go to Tools>Internet Options>Content tab>AutoComplete button, make sure the choices you want are ticked.

http://www.microsoft.com/windows/ie/ie6/using/howto/customizing/autocomplete.mspx#EAC

 

not sure what it is but Autocomplete didn't fix it. Whats happening is that the site is requiring me to log in each time I start the browser and goto the site. Before it recognized who I was and didn't require me to login each time.

What about the scan log I posted above. Should I disinfect the stuff or did it look ok to you?

Thanks

 

The other items are fine, merely cookies or false readings.

You may need to ask for help on the browser/cookie issue in Internet Explorer section, or the Windows XP section.

I've used those tools and procedures on hundreds of systems, and not encountered such.

See if this MS link helps you set a per site privacy action for the site giving you trouble.
