Please delete your temporary files by deleting all files and

folders that are in those folders (do not delete the temp folder

itself) like for example
C:\WINDOWS\Temp\
C:\Temp\
C:\Documents and Settings\username\Local Settings\Temp\
Also delete your

Temporary Internet

Files, be sure to also select delete all offline content.

Do a virus scan

here.
If you get report of files that can’t be cleaned / deleted

please write down the filenames and locations and post that in

your reply.
,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,
Download then unzip and run CWShredder to clean up clicking

"FIX" to have it remove all it finds.

CWShredder available from these places :-


http://www.aluriasoftware.com/tools/cwshredder.zip
Or this as a full download without any unzipping required
http://www.downloads.subratam.org/CWShredder.exe

We have found that some of the CWS infections can be removed

better from safe mode, rather than normal mode.
To get to safe mode use the F8 key while booting the machine.


,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,
Then please do this since it’s better to use automated tools to

get rid of the bad stuff use these 2 programs first before doing

the final cleaning with HJT

First use Spybot S&D. (Version 1.3)
[col

or=blue]Spybot
Unzip, and update. Install the updates and run. Delete all that

it marks in red.
Reboot

Then it’s time for Ad-Aware
Ad

-Aware
Install and update by using the globe icon. Restart your

computer and run Ad-Aware.
Press scan now and select drives and/or partitions to be

scanned. When done select all and click next. Remove all checked

items and then reboot your computer.

Please go to this page and read the instructions for how to

configure Spybot S&D & Ad-Aware
How To Setup Spybot

SD and Ad-Aware

Then post a HJT log as a reply to this topic.
