Now Start killbox Copy the list of files below to the clipboard by selecting all of them with your mouse (Left click the start of the list and drag the mouse to the bottom of the list) and when they are all selected ( highlighted in blue) right click on any part of the blue area and say copy

In the Killbox, Go to the toolbar press file and select Paste from clipboard. The first file name will appear in the window and if the file exists it will appear in blue under that window then select standard file kill, press the red X button, say yes to the prompt and once the file deleted message comes up then press the red X again and continue to press untill the last file on the list appears in the window & it says deleted.

NOTE: Save these directions in WordPad, as some of this fix will be done in Safe Mode.

Hmm alrite. First off, are ya sure ya followed ALL of tayspern's directions (uninstallation, killbox and all)?

Now, fix the following with HJT:

R3 - URLSearchHook: (no name) - {02EE5B04-F144-47BB-83FB-A60BD91B74A9} - C:\Program Files\SurfSideKick 3\SskBho.dll
O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [SurfSideKick 3] C:\Program Files\SurfSideKick 3\Ssk.exe
O4 - HKCU\..\Run: [SurfSideKick 3] C:\Program Files\SurfSideKick 3\Ssk.exe
O4 - Startup: Zeno.lnk = C:\WINDOWS\system32\lwinkrag.exe
O20 - AppInit_DLLs: repairs303169572.dll
O20 - Winlogon Notify: ShellServiceObjectDelayLoad - C:\WINDOWS\system32\mgwsock.dll (file missing)
O23 - Service: sE@•¤qÛmŠxmÊ¿Ú (iE™V‘¸7é,)Ã@`À¿Ÿ©gßˆå"º0©) - Unknown owner - C:\WINDOWS\hostsvc.exe (file missing)

After this, reboot into safe mode.

Open Killbox, and select 'Delete on Reboot'.

Copy/Paste the following folders into the box:

C:\Program Files\SurfSideKick 3\Ssk.exe
C:\WINDOWS\system32\lwinkrag.exe
C:\WINDOWS\hostsvc.exe

Click the red-and-white "Delete File" button. Click "Yes" at the Delete on Reboot prompt. Click "No" at the Pending Operations prompt.

Let the computer reboot.

Now, reboot into safe mode again.

Open killbox, and select both 'delete on reboot' and 'unregister dll'.

Delete the following files with killbox:

C:\Program Files\SurfSideKick 3\SskBho.dll
C:\WINDOWS\system32\mgwsock.dll

Let the computer reboot.

Post a new log.

Thanks.

Boot into safe mode. Then press control alt delete. Go to the processes tab. Right click any of theses processes, then click end process. Click yes to the dialog.

Ssk.exe
lwinkrag.exe
hostsvc.exe

Once you ended any or all of them, then please try to delete the folder.

Hmm, I don't kno, but have ya simply tried uninstalling via the Add/Remove Programs list? Although it doesnt work every time, it works sometimes.

Try this, and tell us of the results.

Thanks.

Yes, we did try that.

'Stein 150 Lapsed Skeptic Team Colleague · Answer 12 · 2006-05-05T03:55:31+00:00

Ok, what we're gonna try to do is run the fix again, and then download a reg file to merge to the registry after.

SO, this will surely sound like ya've done it before, but ya.
____________________

1) Either print out or save these instructions in a Notepad document, as Internet Explorer needs to stay closed during the entire fix.

2) Go to the Add/Remove Programs list and uninstall anything having to do with Surf Sidekick.

If it isn't listed in Add/Remove Programs, or it doesnt work, click on Start, then Run and type the following in the Open field:

C:\Program Files\SurfSideKick 3\Ssk.exe /u

and press the OK button. A code will be displayed that it will ask you to enter. Enter this code and reboot. Once back to your desktop continue with the rest of the fix.

3) Open HJT and check the following:

R3 - URLSearchHook: (no name) - {02EE5B04-F144-47BB-83FB-A60BD91B74A9} - C:\Program Files\SurfSideKick 3\SskBho.dll
O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [SurfSideKick 3] C:\Program Files\SurfSideKick 3\Ssk.exe
O4 - HKCU\..\Run: [SurfSideKick 3] C:\Program Files\SurfSideKick 3\Ssk.exe
O20 - AppInit_DLLs: repairs303169572.dll
O23 - Service: sE@•¤qÛmŠxmÊ¿Ú (iE™V‘¸7é,)Ã@`À¿Ÿ©gßˆå"º0©) - Unknown owner - C:\WINDOWS\hostsvc.exe (file missing)

Now hit 'Fix Checked' and close HJT.

4) Restart the computer

5) Delete the following folders if any are there:

C:\PROGRAM FILES\SurfSideKick
C:\Program Files\SurfSideKick 3\
C:\Program Files\Common Files\VCClient\

6) Now search for any of the following files, and delete any if found:

Sskknwrd.dll
Ssk.log
SskUpdater.exe
Ssk.exe

7) Download FixSSK to your desktop. Double click it, and merge it into the registry.

Now, continue by downloading Ewido Security Suite.

Install ewido security suite
When installing, under "Additional Options" uncheck..
- Install background guard
- Install scan via context menu
Launch ewido, there should be an icon on your desktop, double-click it.
The program will now open to the main screen.
When you run ewido for the first time, you will get a warning "Database could not be found!". Click OK. We will fix this in a moment.
You will need to update ewido to the latest definition files.
- On the left hand side of the main screen click Update.
- Then click on Start Update.
The update will start and a progress bar will show the updates being installed. The status bar at the bottom will display "Update successful"
Click on Scanner
Click on Complete System Scan and the scan will begin.
You will be prompted to clean the first infection.
Select "Perform action on all infections", then proceed.
Once the scan has completed, there will be a button located on the bottom of the screen named Save report
Click Save report.
Save the report .txt file to your desktop or a location where you can find it easily.

Post back here with the Ewido log, and a new HJT log.

Thanks.

Try this, if you havn't gotten it already.

Please download Brute Force Uninstaller to your desktop.

Right-click the BFU folder on your desktop, and choose Extract All
Click "Next"
In the box to choose where to extract the files to,
Click "Browse"
Click on the + sign next to "My Computer"
Click on "Local Disk ( C: ) or whatever your primary drive is
Click "Make New Folder"
Type in BFU
Click "Next", and Uncheck the "Show Extracted Files" box and then click "Finish".

RIGHT-CLICK HERE and choose "Save As" (in IE it's "Save Target As") in order to download SideKickFix by LonnyRJones.
Save it in the same folder you made earlier (c:\BFU).

Please close ALL other open windows & explorer folder's, then double-click on sidekickFix.bat.
Click YES and follow the prompts, when prompted to restart the PC please do so.
Then please post back with a fresh HijackThis log.
