Hi,
Open NotePad, and copy the contents of the below "Quote" box:-

cd %windir%
sc config Workstation Service Library start= disabled
sc stop Workstation Service Library
sc delete Workstation Service Library
sc config Microsoft New Game 2 start= disabled
sc stop Microsoft New Game 2
sc delete Microsoft New Game 2
attrib -s -r -h wkssvc.exe
attrib -s -r -h svehost32.exe
del svehost32.exe
del wkssvc.exe

Go to File Menu > Save As, and save the file with the name Test.bat and exit from NotePad.


Download Sysclean Pacakge, create a folder named Sysclean on Desktop, and put the downloaded file to that folder. Next download the pattern file for Windows OS (pattern file will have a name like lpt731.zip ) and extract the contents of the ZIP file to the same Sysclean folder.


Download Ewido and install it. Then run, you will receive a warning message saying "Database not found", click "OK" for this. Next in the main screen, click "Update" and click "Start Update". After the update process, exit from Ewido.


Reboot in Safe Mode:-
Restart (or switch ON) the PC.
Then, keep tapping the F8 Key.
From the menu that will be displayed, out of which choose Safe Mode and press Enter.


Run HijackThis and click Do only a System scan.
Then put a check mark infront of below listed entries:-

Close all other open programs except Hijackthis and click the button Fix Checked in HijackThis.


Run Ewido, click on the "Scanner" button in the left menu, then click on the "Start" button.
If ewido finds anything, it will pop up a notification. You can select "Clean" and check the boxes "Perform action with all infections" and "Create encrypted backup" before clicking on OK.
When the scan finishes, click on "Save Report". This will create a text file.

Next, double-click on the sysclean.com file, and after few seconds, the Sysclean window appears. Here make sure that Automatically clean or delete infected files option is selected. Then click "Scan". After the scan is complete it gives a log, save the log file.


Reboot to normal mode, run HijackThis again, and post a fresh log along with Sysclean and Ewido logs.

Thanks SwatKat,
I am on Dial-up and am downloading as we speak but I am having a problem finding the pattern file for Windows OS

Thanks

I couldn't do the sys clean, but here is my most recent HLT log and Ewido log
