:sad: i cant search anymore by just typing in something in the address bar at the top, i used to be able to type something such as "dogs" (with out the quotation marks) then press enter and it would take me to the MSN page of results. now i cant do that and when i try to search through YAHOO or any other site, once i fill in what i want to search for, then hit enter, it says things like... The page cannot be found
The page you are looking for might have been removed, had its name changed, or is temporarily unavailable.

help me!!! im going insane!!!

also google seems to work but you cant scroll all the way down the pages displaying the search reults, or even when you click on a search result, you cant scroll all the way down the webpage you clicked on either?!?!?!

im so confused, i downloaded some patch from the msn page when i read this (which comes up when you type in just www.google.com)

"A message from Server Admin: Some people have reported arriving at our error page after typing in or clicking a link to a major search engine. After extensive research into the issue we have found that one of our server I.P. addresses has been targeted by a virus which you may have on your computer called "QHosts". This virus was made several months before we were allocated the server I.P. addresses we have now, and therefore we have no control over it (much to our dismay as it causes disruption to our servers on a regular basis, however it is gradually diminishing.) The Microsoft cumulative patch for this vulnerability is available here."
when you click on the link to google it has at the bottom of this page, it takes you to http://justtemplates.com/google.html

im so confused!!!!!!!

also, some wierd blue and red screen (looks like the DOS screen format with the block lettering and all) comes up every once and a while telling me i have a trojan virus... my AVG virus checker told me i have it as well telling me it was a trojan horse downloader c:\_restore\temp\a0000736.cpy vb.dq in my c:\_restore\temp\a0000722.cpy and c:\_restore\temp\a0000735.cpy but that has just started coming up and now the virus checker has not found any lately.... but when it did find those, it said it couldnt heal them...

this is seperate from my searching problem i think, because it just started, and my searching problem has been going on for almost 5 months, i have been trying to fix it forever!!!!!!!!!

First of all you need to flush your system restore to get rid of the virus. Switch off system restore (Note that a new one will be created from here on & you will lose all previous restore points) & Go here for an on-line scan & set it to autoclean for you.

Next we need to do a few things before switching restore back on.

Download & instal Adaware from here
& update it B4 scanning.
In settings under 'scanning,' have it set to
'scan within archives,'
'scan active processes,'
'scan registry,'
'deepscan registry'
'scan my IE Favourites for banned URL's,'
'scan my host's file.'
In 'tweaks' under 'scanning engine' set it to 'unload recognised processes during scanning.'
Also in 'tweaks' under 'cleaning engine' set it to 'Automatically try to unregister objects prior to deletion' & 'let Windows remove files in use at next reboot.'
Select 'activate in-depth scan' before starting scan.
When the scan is finished select 'next.'
Remove what it finds by placing a check in the box to the left of the object. Reboot

Download & instal Spybot S&D from here Update it B4 scanning. Go into settings & have it check for Beta releases also & download if available.
After the scan is complete, have spybot fix everything marked RED.
On the page that first opens when you start Spybot there is an option to immunise, you should do this. In the immunise section there is also a link to download Spywareblaster. Download that & you can keep it updated by selecting the same link that you use to download it. Reboot

Download HijackThis from here & unzip it into it's own, permanent folder, (not a temporary folder & not on the desktop). Start HJT & press the scan button. When the scan is finished the scan button will change to save. Save the log to a text file, copy the entire contents of the text file & paste it into the body of your post. DO NOT FIX ANYTHING YET. Most of what is there is harmless & even necessary to the running of your system.

ok how do i switch off system restore? i remember trying to use it to go back to an earlier date when that trojan horse download red and blue screen first popped up... but it wouldnt go back it said i could only restore it to one day before or something... i just dont know how to switch it off...? sorry, im usually good about fixing computer problems but this is just beyond me... ive been trying for over 6 months with the search problem

Instructions for ME click HERE

Instructions for XP click HERE

im doing the auto clean online scan thing right now... and some files are coming up "non cleanable" what do i do about them?!?!

Just navigate to their location & delete them. Then follow the instructions from my first post. If anything is left over it should be picked up by hijackthis.

how do i Select 'activate in-depth scan' before starting scan... i dont see where it is

i got it nevermind... im scanning now... thanks for putting up with all my little questions!!! ill let you know how it works!?!???

:o took me a whole day ( I had school and work) but i did get it all!!!!! here is the hijack this part...

now i definitely need to know what to do from here... if you have time... thanks SOOOO much!!

Unzip HJT into it's own permanent folder before doing anything in order for it to create backups. (Not a temporary folder or the desktop & not directly on your hard drive). Close all (browser) windows & rescan with hijackthis. When the scan is finished place a check in the box to the left of the following entries=

O1 - Hosts: 127.127.127.127 elite

O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [HiJackThis3] WINDOWSUPDATER.EXE
O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [MSYSTEMM] C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM\MSYSTEMM.exe

Reboot into safe mode following the instructions here & navigate to & delete

C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM\MSYSTEMM.exe< this one.

Reboot normally.
Disable system restore following the instructions given here & then set a new restore point. Note that all previous restore points will be lost.

Go & have another online scan & report back the results plz.

O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [MSYSTEMM] C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM\MSYSTEMM.exe

also at the end, should i enable system restore? its already disabled i think from the beginning...

sorry im not smart with this kinda stuff... i need help!!!:cry:

C:\WINDOWS\TEMPORARY INTERNET FILES\CONTENT.IE5\OPQ34HU7\HIJACKTHIS[1]\HIJACKTHIS.EXE

this could have something to do with that ,you are running hijack from the temp internet folder ,download it [link in my signature ]to you desktop and unzip it to a created folder like this c:\HJT folder,more info on how to !!

Important: Create a folder on the C: drive called C:\HJT.
You can do this by going to My Computer (Windows key+e) then double click on C: then right click and select New then Folder and name it HJT.
Unzip HijackThis into this folder. When you run HijackThis from this folder and have it "Fixed checked" it will create a backup file of modifications to use if restore is necessary.

did i do it right this time? i saved it to a file in C called HJT... but it never told me to unzip anything... but the folder icon did have a zipper on it but when i clicked on the hijack this icon it just opened up

C:\WINDOWS\TEMPORARY INTERNET FILES\CONTENT.IE5\OPQ34HU7\HIJACKTHIS[1]\HIJACKTHIS.EXE

this could have something to do with that ,you are running hijack from the temp internet folder ,download it [link in my signature ]to you desktop and unzip it to a created folder like this c:\HJT folder,more info on how to !!

Unzip HijackThis into this folder. When you run HijackThis from this folder and have it "Fixed checked" it will create a backup file of modifications to use if restore is necessary.

there is a line called O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [SPP32M] C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM\SPP32M.exe right under the line called O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [HiJackThis3] WINDOWSUPDATER.EXE
BUT no line called O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [MSYSTEMM] C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM\MSYSTEMM.exe

i just tried searching for something on yahoo... and it worked!!! i didnt fix anything through hijack this yet though... also when i type in www.google.com... it doesnt come up that stupid just templates thing before it like it used to... it came up normally!!!!!!

should i still fix things through hijack this?!?!

im so happy thank you so much... to everyone who left me instructions...

i just need to know about the hijack this part... thanks again!!!!!!

You are still running hijackthis out of a temporary folder. Create a new folder on your desktop & call it whatever you like, (HJT) go to hijackthis.exe & drag it into the folder you just created. Then run hijackthis from there & do the following:

Close all (browser) windows & rescan with hijackthis. When the scan is finished place a check in the box to the left of the following entries=

O1 - Hosts: 127.127.127.127 elite

O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [HiJackThis3] WINDOWSUPDATER.EXE
O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [SPP32M] C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM\SPP32M.exe

Reboot into safe mode following the instructions here & navigate to & delete

C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM\SPP32M.exe< this one

Reboot normally after doing the above then post a fresh log plz.

ok i did the first part, i cant reboot n do the next part until later tonight, i have to work until midnight...

but when i changed folders... the numbers n letters changed next to the windows system thing so it wasnt SPP32M anymore... it was something else but i deleted in anyways......... is that ok???? i will reboot in safe mode around midnight then post a fresh list.... thanks for being patient with me!!!!

With this file SPP32M, take note in your task manager for another similar one. You mentioned that it changed letters, if it is there in task manager, end program on it B4 removing it with HJT.

O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [SPP32M] C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM\SPP32M.exe

That line was different the time i deleted it before like i said... when i scanned the computer with HJT the first time & copied the text log it was different, and when i scanned and checked and deleted those three things it was some other letters.... now i scanned it again... just to see if it would change and it said another different set of letters than the first time i posted it, and different from the one i deleted this morning before work...

now it is O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [SSDPSRV] C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM\SSDPSRV.exe


i thought i deleted that b4 (with different letters) but its back... is that ok?! i dont know how to "if it is there in task manager, end program on it B4 removing it with HJT."

if you have time, i would definitely need (and appreciate the help!!!) thanks!!!!!

SSDPSRV.exe is a legitimate Windows file, do not delete that.
I think you will be better served by posting a new HJT log after a reboot.

i rebooted in safe mode and there was no windowssystem spp32m or the other wierd letters like i deleted the first time... it was something after windows system like... hpsysdrv something so i thought it was something for my computer since i have an HP... i didnt delete it... but here is the new list...

Hi. Yes you did the right thing by not deleting anything in safe mode. Never delete something you are not sure about.

Thats a nice clean log now so get that system restore back up & running. :)
