My HiJackThis Log

[jshtylr]

For the past few days I have been unable to run any shortcuts on the desktop or start menu, I can load up things like 'My Computer' and others like that, but any installed programs I have to load it up from the programs file.

Here's my HiJackThis log, if somebody could please tell me either what to do and how to solve it, it would be greatly appreciated.

Hi jshtylr,

Your HJT Log looks OK as far as malware is concerned. Just some minor issues we can clean up, if you so desire. First, do this:

Please relocate HijackThis to a safer location. Most Forum volunteers expect to find it at C:\Program Files\HijackThis or C:\HijackThis.
If you are unable to move it on your own, please do the following:

FIRST: DELETE your current copy of HijackThis.
THEN: Download a fresh HijackThis from http://downloads.malwareremoval.com/hijackthis_sfx.exe

Save the setup file on your desktop.
Then, DoubleClick on it and by default it should install to C:\Program Files\HijackThis
Continue through the setup and allow it to create a desktop icon for you. Follow all the prompts, click Finish and just leave it for now.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------

For the problem at hand:

-- What are the extensions for the shortcuts? Are they .exe or .lnk?
How about the actual programs themselves - .exe or .lnk?

-- How many different User Accounts are on this machine?

Will try to check back over the weekend if I get a chance.

PP :)

[jshtylr]

OK, moved HiJackThis.

All the shortcuts link to exes. I don't know how to check the extension of the shortcuts though. I tried going into Folder Options, then on the View tab. And unchecked hide known extensions, but that didn't work.

Also I have one account running.

[PhilliePhan]

Ok then . . .. Let's have a look a a few things.

-- Please download Peekaboo.zip attached below and extract peekaboo.bat to your Desktop.
-- A folder labeled peekaboo will appear on your Desktop.
-- Open the folder and DoubleClick peekaboo.bat and give it a couple seconds to run.
A log should pop up in Notepad. Please attach that (peek.txt) for me using the "manage attachments" button when you post back (scroll down).

BTW - You should be advised that anytime somebody in any forum gives you an unknown program to run (even a simple batch like this one), it is strictly a "Use At Your Own Risk" proposition!

Anyhoo, it is up to you if you want to trust me :)

PP :)

[jshtylr]

Right I've uploaded the log file,
Thanks for your help so far.

[PhilliePhan]

Right I've uploaded the log file,
Thanks for your help so far.

Happy to try to help!

Let's give this a whirl:

-- Please download the attached fixxshort.zip and extract it to your Desktop.
-- Open the folder and DoubleClick fixxshort.reg and allow it to merge into the registry.
-- You can then Delete it from your desktop.

REBOOT, and let me know if that had any effect.

Note: Anytime you hack the Registry or fiddle with it in some manner, bad things can happen.

You may want to first back up the registry before doing the above. I suggest a simple & Free tool such as ERUNT

I doubt you'll have any issues with the fix, but backing up the registry is prudent in any case.

Best Luck :)
PP

[jshtylr]

The file doesn't looks like its been attached

[PhilliePhan]

The file doesn't looks like its been attached

Sorry! There it is. :)

This forum has limits on the type of files you can attach and I keep trying to upload them as is . . . ugh.

[jshtylr]

For some strange reason, its started working again, I didn't even get to merge your reg files in. There was an error saying that it can access the registry. But now all the start menu shortcuts and desktop shortcuts work...

I did install that ERunt program, then restarted, tried to merge your reg file and it came up with the error, but it works anyway...
:confused:
Anyway, thanks for all the help you've given me

[PhilliePhan]

Anyway, thanks for all the help you've given me

Happy to try to help :)

That's odd - that should just merge right in. Perhaps it did.
-- If you like, you can give me a fresh peekaboo log and we can see if it merged successfully.

At any rate, all's well that ends well . . ..

Cheers :)
PP

[jshtylr]

Here it is

[PhilliePhan]

Here it is

Yup - It looks like it merged just fine :)

You can see the differences between the two peek.txt logs.

Also, if you take fixxshort.reg and change the extension to fixxshort.txt and open it, it will match the second log exactly.

PP :)

[jshtylr]

oh right, ok.
Thanks very much for all the help again.
Much appreciated

[PhilliePhan]

oh right, ok.
Thanks very much for all the help again.
Much appreciated

You're welcome!

Happy New Year :)
