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 & click 'fix checked' :

R1 - HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main,HomeOldSP = about:blank

O4 - HKCU\..\Run: [WCPI] C:\WINDOWS\system32\wintsvit.exe

O16 - DPF: {AD7FAFB0-16D6-40C3-AF27-585D6E6453FD} - http://217.73.66.1/del/d_a_loader.cab

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

C:\WINDOWS\system32\wintsvit.exe< file

Reboot normally.

Launch Notepad, and copy/paste the bold below into a new text file. Save it as URLRepair.reg (Change the 'Save As Type' to 'All Files'). Save it in C:\

REGEDIT4
[-HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\URLSearchHooks]
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\URLSearchHooks]
"{CFBFAE00-17A6-11D0-99CB-00C04FD64497}"=""

Locate it (in C:\) and double-click on it (launch it). You'll recieve a prompt similar to: "Do you wish to merge the information into the registry?". Answer yes and wait for a message to appear similar to "Merged Successfully".

Post a new log plz.

Try the instructions in this thread:
http://www.daniweb.com/techtalkforums/thread7507.html

It basically involves ripping out a DLL from the running explorer.exe and iexplore.exe processes, and then removing those files using HJT. It's worked for me, and the solution has worked through several reboots so far.

Make sure your settings allow you to view "Hidden files". Open up any explorer windows and click on "Tools" => "Folder Options" => "View" and be sure to check off "Show Hidden Files and Folders".
Press Ctrl+Alt+Delete once => Click Task Manager => Click the Processes tab => Double-click the Image Name column header to alphabetically sort the processes => Scroll through the list and look for "ieid32.exe" & "mfceb.exe". If you find the files, click on them, and then click End Process => Exit the Task Manager.
Next, go to Start->Run and type "Services.msc" (without quotes) then hit OK.
Scroll down and find the service called "Network Security Service".
When you find it, double-click on it. In the next window that opens, click the Stop button, then change the Startup Type to Disabled. Now hit Apply and then OK and close any open windows.
Run HijackThis, click on "Scan" and then place a check mark in the following boxes, And click on "Fix Checked":

O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [mfceb.exe] C:\WINDOWS\mfceb.exe
Reboot into Safe Mode - How do I boot into "Safe" mode?, and delete the following files:
C:\WINDOWS\system32\bcgzs.dll< file
C:\WINDOWS\winut32.dll< file
C:\WINDOWS\system32\sdker.exe< file
C:\WINDOWS\mfceb.exe< file
C:\WINDOWS\system32\ieid32.exe< file
Go to Start => Run and type in "regedit" (without quotes) and press "Enter".
One the registry opens, Navigate to: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\__NS_Service_3
If __NS_Service_3 exists , right click on it and choose delete from the menu.
Still in the registry, navigate to: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Enum\Root\LEGACY___NS_Service_3
If LEGACY___NS_Service_3 exists then right click on it and choose delete from the menu.
Exit regedit and reboot in Normal Mode.
Two files (Possibly three) were also deleted from your computer and need to be replaced.
- control.exe - Go to Merijn Files (control) and download the version of control.exe for your operating system. If you are running Windows 2000, copy it to c:\winnt\system32\. For Windows XP, copy it to c:\windows\system32\.
- Download the Hoster from here. Press "Restore Original Hosts" and press "OK". Exit Program.
- If you have Spybot S&D installed you will also need to replace one file. Go here: Merijn's Files (sdhelper) and download SDHelper.dll. Copy the file to the folder containing you Spybot S&D program (normally C:\Program Files\Spybot - Search & Destroy)

Thank you very much.

However, I think I am still infected!

I have downloaded popup stopper, and it does a good job of stopping popups. But every time it tries to do so, the words About:Blank appears in the pop up that is being closed. I therefore think that it problem remains somewhere on my computer.

Any thoughts? ;)

jaqjaq 0 Newbie Poster · Answer 4 · 2004-06-29T02:46:46+00:00

I Was Right. The Problem Is Back.

This Time I Get A Pop Up Every Few Minutes, And The Pop Up Stopper Does Not Work.

Please Help.

Please Help.

The pop up says "Only the Best" and it trys to sell me a spyware remover at :
http://www2.palsol.com/spyrem_offer/index.html?hop=extron

The home page is not about:balnk. it is: "res://bibtf.dll/index.html#26643" and the page provides: "Home Search"

I did everthing that i could think of and could find on the various related threads but to no avail.

Thank you, but totally useless.

I did what you instructed. and even ran the scan twice.

Then I opened an Internet Explorer window to get to this site, and the entire thing returned. I did what you suggested one more time, and this time I even exited msn messenger before. Nothing!

Here are the results after the first two scans.

No luck.

I did everything suggested on the other thread. HJT showed a clean log.

But I did not even have to shut down and reboot. As soon as I clicked on IE, it returned. The home page is "Home Search", but looks alot like About:Blank. The actual web page is "res://bcgzs.dll/index.html#26643"

It also creats a pop up called "only the best" with a different topic depending on the web page. When on daniweb, the pop up wants to sell me adware remover. When on business page, a business related junk, et set.

Please help.

I did as you asked. A few problems:

Step 6

Could not find O2 - BHO: (no name) - {47F1A18E-4D68-80F1-6BBB-16B984AC80ED} - C:\WINDOWS\winut32.dll.

However, I deleted the outof place dll file I found.

Step 7

could not find:

C:\WINDOWS\system32\bcgzs.dll< file
C:\WINDOWS\winut32.dll< file
C:\WINDOWS\system32\sdker.exe< file
C:\WINDOWS\mfceb.exe< file
C:\WINDOWS\system32\ieid32.exe< file

I did find and delete:

C:\WINDOWS\system32\sdker.ex$

Step 10

Could not delete or rename: LEGACY___NS_Service_3
The system provided "cannot delete LEGACY___NS_Service_3:error while deleting key.

Step 12:

could not logon to merijn.

But the good news is that the hijaker is not workinga anymore. However, the pop up closer still closes a pop up named "about:blank". So the system is still infected.

Here is my most recent log after I opened Internet Explorer.

What Norton programs have you run? Did they find problems?

Have you done a disk defrag lately?

jaqjaq 0 Newbie Poster · Answer 12 · 2004-07-07T00:41:03+00:00

Norton System Works 2004. It is useless. It does not catch any of the problems.

I did defragment over the weekend. A slight improvement. However, opening any application takes what seems forever.

THANK YOU.

I DID WHAT YOU SUGGESTED, AND IT APPEARED TO HAVE RESOLVED THE PROBLEM. I RAN CWSHREDDER, ADAWARE, TROJAN REMOVER, AND SPYBOT.

HOWEVER, THE NEXT DAY IT WAS BACK.

I RAN HIJACK THIS AND FIXED WHAT APPEARED BAD TO ME. MY HOMEPAGE RETURNED TO NORMAL. I SUSPECT IT WILL BE BACK.

MY COMPUTER IS ALSO SO SLOW IT IS VIRTUALLY USELESS.

HERE IS THE CURRENT LOG.

I WOULD APPRICIATE ANY HELP.

So youve been doing this for about 2 weeks now ,did you ever have a look at how i got infected in the first place ,in Crunchies signature .and get the suggested programs .

DMR 152 Wombat At Large Team Colleague · Answer 20 · 2004-07-10T02:43:13+00:00

Agreed. If you haven't already, get the recommended removal and prevention utilities such as Ad Aware, SbyBot, SpywareBlaster, SpywareGuard, ie-spyad, etc.

Also make sure to download and install all of the latest Microsoft critical fixes using the Windows Update utility.

jaqjaq 0 Newbie Poster · Answer 21 · 2004-07-10T02:56:21+00:00

I have done it all. All updates, all software to clean and to prevent. They all indicate that the system is clean. However, it keeps coming back. It seems nothing gets rid of its permanently.

The last time that it was cleared up for about a month, Crunchy showed me how to delete the hidden dll file. But I am not sure how to do it again. Hijack this alone will not help, as it keeps returning.

Any ideas?

DMR 152 Wombat At Large Team Colleague · Answer 22 · 2004-07-10T03:42:45+00:00

OK- I just wanted to verify that you had run the utilities and gotten the updates.

I think crunchie's instructions for removing the hidden dlls are in this thread:

"Thekillbox" link on that page does not work. Any ideas.

Also, at the begining of this thread crunchi gave me a fix without thekillbox. do you think it may work without it?

caperjack 875 I hate 20 Questions Team Colleague · Answer 24 · 2004-07-12T23:45:01+00:00
