Hi there, I have a serious problem. I think I have several spyware and an especially malicious one that refused to go away and is activated when I log onto the internet. Please help! Tried running my 3 anti-spyware software millions of times, but they keep detecting the same few spywares (WWWcoolsearch, Homesearch, something of this sort) and the fake antispy program. I scanned my computer using Hijackthis is below is the log. Please HELP!!

Hi,
Download SpSeHjfix save it to the Desktop, and then right-click in a blank area of Desktop, select New > Folder, and name it spfix, unzip the file into that folder.

Download CWShredder.


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.


Run SpSeHjfix, click on "Start Disinfection". When it's finished it will reboot your machine to finish the cleaning process. The tool creates a log of the fix which will appear in the folder. Note: if it doesn't find any of the SE files or any hidden reinstallers, it will say System clean and not go on to next stage.


Run CWShredder and click "Fix ->" and allow it to complete the scan.


Run Ewido, click on the "Scanner" button in the left menu, then click on the "Complete System Scan" 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.


After these steps, reboot the PC, and post a fresh HijackThis log and also post the SpSeHjFix log that was created earlier.

Hi,

I am so sorry to trouble, but the SpSeHjfix could not be run. They'll be a grey box popping up, saying "SpSeHjfix112.exe has encountered a problem and needs to close. We are sorry for the inconvenience", and asked if I would want to send an error report. hmm.... What should I do? I have done the updates for Ewido already.

Hi, I tried running SpSeHjfix again, it didn't reboot nor did it any 'system clean' notice. I ran it twice and here's what I got:

Hi,

Download CleanUp! and install it. Do not run it now!


Open a new file in NotePad, and copy the contents of the below mentioned "Quote" box to NotePad:-

cd %windir%
cd system32
attrib -s -r -h apigz32.exe
del apigz32.exe
attrib -s -r -h sysma32.exe
del sysma32.exe

Go to File Menu (in NotePad) > Save As and type the filename as Test.BAT and save the file. Exit from NotePad.


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:-

R3 - Default URLSearchHook is missing
O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [NAVNet] "C:\DOCUME~1\SHUHUI~1.200\LOCALS~1\Temp\3A.tmp" /m
O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [apigz32.exe] C:\WINDOWS\system32\apigz32.exe
O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [sysma32.exe] C:\WINDOWS\system32\sysma32.exe

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


Double-click on the Test.bat file that was created earlier. A DOS type window should open and close immediately.


Run CleanUp! and click "Options.." button. Here move the "Quick Setup" slider to "Thorough Cleanup" position. Uncheck the option "Delete Favorites Palces/Bookmarks", if you have any bookmarks. Click "OK" to return to main window, and click "CleanUp!" to start cleaning. After it completes, click "Close" and click "No" to avoid logging off.


Reboot to Normal Mode. Run HijackThis again, click Do a System scan and save log, and post the fresh log.


Download WinPFind.ZIP and completely extract it to a folder. Then run WinPFind.exe and click "Start Scan". When the scan completes, click "Copy to Clipboard" button to copy the log it gives, and please post it here.

Thank you!

Hi,
Right-click on the below provided link and click "Save As" (or "Save Target As") and save the file with default filename.
http://www.spywareinfo.com/downloads/tools/IEFIX.reg
There should be a file called IEFix.reg.


Open a new file in NotePad, and copy the contents of the below mentioned "Quote" box:-

cd %windir%
cd SYSTEM32
attrib -s -r -h oleext.dll
del oleext.dll

Go to File Menu (in NotePad) > Save As and type the filename as Test.BAT and save the file. Exit from NotePad.


Run HijackThis, and select this entry:-
R3 - Default URLSearchHook is missing
Close all other programs and click "Fix Checked".


Double-click on the Test.bat file, a DOS type window should open and close by itself.


Double-click on IEFix.reg and click "Yes" to merge it with Registry.


Restart the PC. Perform an online virus scan at Panda ActiveScan with the "Disinfection" option enabled. Save the log file it gives after the scan, and please post back the same.

Hi, I didn't get to the screen whereby i can enable the "Disinfection" option. Ran the online scan checking only my Local Disks and not My Computer.

Here is the log:

Hi,
Open a new file in NotePad, and copy the contents of the below mentioned "Quote" box:-

cd %windir%
attrib -s -r -h mfctg.exe
del mfctg.exe
attrib -s -r -h netry32.exe
del netry32.exe
attrib -s -r -h sdkmt32.exe
del sdkmt32.exe
attrib -s -r -h sysyj32.exe
del sysyj32.exe
attrib -s -r -h winoe.exe
del winoe.exe

Go to File Menu (in NotePad) > Save As and type the filename as Test2.BAT and save the file. Exit from NotePad.


Boot in Safe Mode. Double-click on this file, a DOS type window should open and close by itself. This will delete those "bad" files.


Apart from this, the HijackThis log looks clean :) Do you experience any problems with the PC?

Hmm, the World Antispy program doesn't pop up when I log on the net now, but its still under my list of programs under "Add or remove program" in Control Panel. And when I try to uninstall it, it will direct me to a website which will instruct me to click on a hyperlink to uninstall. Didn't click for fear that I might let more spywares in. Sigh... Besides that, when I do my scans, a couple of neglible programs and stuffs will be detected. =( I also realise that when I surf the net the connection speed is slower now... Will there be any hidden spywares??

Cheers,
faery

P.S.: Thanks for your help!!! =)

Hi,
The entry in the "Add/Remove Programs" can be removed using RegCleaner. Run it, and click the "Uninstall Menu" tab in the main window. Here select the "World AntiSpy" entry from the list, and click "Remove Selected" button to remove it from the list.


To free up disk space, you can delete the "old" System Restore points except the latest one. This page show how to do it.


Performance of the system can be increased by performing Disk Defragmenter. This is available in Start > All Prgrams > Accessories > System Tools > Disk Defragmenter. Defrag all the hard disk partitions.


Try using alternate browsers like Opera or FireFox, which are much safer and feature rich than IE.


To make sure that there are no viruses/spyware lurking in the PC, you can perform online virus scan at TrendMicro HouseCall and an online spyware scan at TrendMicro Spyware Scan.

Hi,

Really thank you alot for the help you've provided =) Ran occassional checks using my Spybot Search n Destroy and Lavasoft, and they still find other spywares. How can I ensure max protection when I log onto the net?

Cheers,
faery

Hi,
Can you tell the names of the threats detected by AdAware and SpyBot? Running TrendMicro SpywareScan would help a lot to detect and remove spyware/adware, if there are any.

Hi there,

I ran a HijackThis scan and found that the sysma32.exe and apigz32.exe are still present. What shlould I do?! My spybot check will detect 'ShopAtHome' and 'CoolSearch', something of this sort.

Hi there again,

The following is my log. As you can see, the sysma32 and apigz are found again after I fixed them the previous scan. Sigh...

Hi,
Download CleanUp! and install it. Do not run it now. Download KillBox.Zip and extract it to a folder.


Boot in Safe Mode.


Double-click on KillBox.exe and select the options Standard file kill and End explorer shell while killing file.

Next, copy the below mentioned complete filename and paste it in the "Full path of the file to delete" textbox in KillBox:-

C:\WINDOWS\system32\apigz32.exe

Next, press the button which has a "white cross on a red background" to delete the file.


Once you delete the above file, copy this filename and paste it in KillBox:-

C:\WINDOWS\system32\sysma32.exe

Press the "white cross on red circle" button to delete the file.


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

O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [apigz32.exe] C:\WINDOWS\system32\apigz32.exe
O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [sysma32.exe] C:\WINDOWS\system32\sysma32.exe
O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [NAVNet] "C:\DOCUME~1\SHUHUI~1.200\LOCALS~1\Temp\3A.tmp" /m

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

Go to Start > Run and then copy the below path to Run dialog box:-

C:\DOCUME~1\SHUHUI~1.200\LOCALS~1\Temp

Next, press Enter key. This will open the "Temp" folder inside the user's folder. Here, go to Edit Menu > Select All. Next, after selecting all items, press Delete key.


Run CleanUp! and click "Options" button. Here move the "Quick setup" slider to "Thorough" position. Next, if you have any bookmarks, uncheck the option "Delete the Favorite Places/Bookmarks" and then click "OK" to exit from Options window. Now, click "CleanUp!" to start cleaning. After it completes, click "Close" and choose "No" to avoid logging off.


Reboot the PC, and please post a fresh HijackThis log.

Hi,

I was unable to use KillBox to delete the 2 files. It said that the files are not found. So i just moved on to remove them and NAVNet at HijackThis, and then ran the CleanUp!. My HijackThis log still show that the 2 files, sysma32 and apigz32 are still present.

A window from my Spybot Search & Destroy popped up asking if I would want to allow a change. I think the old data was NAVnet and there wasn't any new data, the action was to delete value. So i just allowed it. Hmmm, don't know what's going on..... :eek:

Hi,
It is possible that Microsoft AntiSpyware and Spybot TeaTimer blocking the changes made to Registry by HijackThis. Please disable the background scanners of SpyBot SnD and Microsoft AntiSpyware and then remove those two entries in HijackThis.


Also, open a new file in NotePad and copy the contents inside the "Quote" box:-

cd %windir%
cd system32
dir /ah apigz32.exe > test1.txt
dir /ah sysma32.exe > test2.txt
copy test1.txt + test2.txt = c:\info.txt
del test1.txt
del test2.txt

Go to File Menu (NotePad) > Save As and type the filename as Chk.bat and save the file. Exit from NotePad.


Double-click on this file, a DOS type window should open and close by itself. After this there will be a file called Info.txt in C:\ drive. Open this file, and please post its contents.


Also, download MWAV and run it. Select the "Startup folders", "Registry", "Memory", "Drive --> All local drives", "System folders", "Services" options. After this, select "Scan all files" and click "Scan". Please post the MWAV log file after the scan alogn with HijackThis log and contents of Info.txt file.
