To solve this problems, use your Windows CD to repair the Windows. POP! All done.

G'day, imperious,
Really this should have been posted over at Viruses n Nasties, but what the heck, you're here, I'm here...
Please do not do a Windows Repair, it's not really called for.
Let's fix your Hosts File:

  • download HostsXpert from http://www.funkytoad.com/content/view/13/31/

    • click the top button Make Writable if it is available
    • click Restore MS Hosts File button.
  • Now that that is done you should be able to go to Norton/symantec site - get the uninstaller tool for the AV you had and run it because you have active components still in your sys [you may run only ONE active AV service - they interfere.. Of course, you may wish to ditch Avast - your decision]

Use hijackthis to fix these two [benign] entries:

O2 - BHO: (no name) - {7E853D72-626A-48EC-A868-BA8D5E23E045} - (no file)
O4 - Startup: services.lnk = ?

Good. Now I do not see what modified your hosts file so would you please:
Clean..

To solve this problems, use your Windows CD to repair the Windows. POP! All done.

great detailed post ,and great suggestion for the problem at hand ,oh and maybe a big hammer for after the repair!lol

AVG AS saw nothing, I see nothing more now... is your problem still there? [grey task bar, sound failing etc.] Is another window still taking focus and activating over the top of the one you meant to be using?

I thought it was fixed at first but the typing is still
all messed up. It will jump from one word to a different word. And it will scroll the page up and down and go back to previous pages on the internet. As far as the other problems go i am not sure because they only happen once in a while.

Imperious, could you run these scans to check for malware, please? First clean:
==Get CCleaner from http://www.ccleaner.com/ - and install it in a new folder. You should keep this one for general use. I set the installation checkboxes only to open from the recycle bin. It's neater that way.
Now run CCleaner from the recycle bin rclick menu using its default settings [if you set up CCleaner as i suggested, rclicking the bin icon should give you the Open CCleaner option...].
If you have FireFox open the Applications tab and ensure at least that Cookies and Cache are checked.
Select the Cleaner icon, press Run Cleaner.
==Please use IE to do an online scan at panda:- http://www.pandasoftware.com/products/activescan?
-select a link to the scan... free online virus scan...., enter a valid? email and follow through, choosing My Computer for a full system scan.
Post the log it produces here.
==Download this file to your desktop: http://download.bleepingcomputer.com/sUBs/ComboFix.exe
- to run it dclick combofix.exe and follow the prompts to start it. When finished, it will produce a log, C:\Combofix.txt - post that log in your next reply.
A word of caution - do not touch your mouse/keyboard until the scan has completed. The scan will temporarily disable your desktop, and if interrupted may leave your desktop disabled. If this occurs reboot to restore the desktop.
Okay, post those two logs, please, plus a fresh hijackthis log.

Imperious, could you check the properties of this file for its owner details, please... see if you recognise it. If unknown, delete it-
C:\CF19715.exe
Please go Start, run, type or paste in
sfc /scannow
-insert your XP SP2 cd, press Enter as required. This will replace any system files damaged by the Alcra worm you had.

It was i would say about 80% done
then my computer said preparing to hibernate
then i tried to turn it back on and it started and right before it started up completely it just shut off again

Also i do not have xp sp2 CD maybe its lost somewhere but i don't believe i ever got one because i always keep them in the same place

I have:
Operating system CD (Microsoft Windows XP Home SP1a)
Driver Recovery CD
Application Recovery CD

Imperious, you are running SP2 now so that SP1 cd will not work. Do you think you could borrow a XP SP2 cd from someone?

Yeah il try to get one off a friend
If not... then? Go buy one?

If you have to buy your local puter shop should burn you one for just a couple dollars. It's not as if you are wanting the licence, which is where the real fee is.

Ok i Got the Windows XP Home Edition SP2
i run sfc /scannow
and still it asks for a disk

Possible reasons for this problem:
-you have inserted the wrong CD. (i.e., a different windows product CD than the version installed)
-the CD-ROM drive in your system is not functioning

Okay...
=What is the name of your optical [eg, CD, DVD] drive in Explorer? Is it D:\
Open that CD and find the path to the I386 folder... it is likely in the root of the drive, eg D:\I386 -tell me.
=Do you have this folder [you may have to show hidden files to see it]?:
c:\windows\ServicePackFiles\ServicePackCache
=Could I have a look at the contents of this reg key....
==Please copy the text between the lines to a notepad [format/wordwrap unchecked] and save as showkey.bat, as type "all files", to your desktop; dclick it to run, then post the file C:\showkey.txt
__________________________________________________________
reg query "HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Setup" >C:\showkey.txt
start C:\showkey.txt
__________________________________________________________

yeah i386 is under D:
i do not have c:\windows\ServicePackFiles\ServicePackCache,
under servicepackfiles there is only i386 and lang

Imperious, if you have a folder c:\windows\ServicePackFiles\I386 about 450MB in size, more or less, then you must have done an [online?] update to SP2? In that case there should be a registry entry pointing to that folder and Windows File Protection should be able to access it.
The command sfc [system file checker] is part of Windows File Protection - WFP automatically replaces any protected system files that are corrupted, altered or deleted, sfc additionally will copy into the protected file cache a fresh copy of such bad files from a cd or other folder, eg c:\windows\ServicePackFiles\I386 [if it is not empty? Tell me].
Could you please run that batch file for me so I can see stuff?

i386 is not empty

sorry for the confusion but im not to sure what you mean by this

Could you please run that batch file for me so I can see stuff?

Ah, this bit... if you run this batch file [follow the instructions] I will be able to see some relevant registry entries on your machine.
==Please copy the text between the lines to a notepad [format/wordwrap unchecked] and save as showkey.bat, as type "all files", to your desktop; dclick it to run, then post the file C:\showkey.txt which will open on your desktop.
__________________________________________________________
reg query "HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Setup" >C:\showkey.txt
start C:\showkey.txt
__________________________________________________________

i am really sorry
but i don't understand
where do i find the text between the lines

reg query "HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Setup" >C:\showkey.txt
start C:\showkey.txt

once again im sorry for the confusion

haha shit Never mind

wow i guess i didn't really think that one through haha

ok here it is

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Setup\OptionalComponents

Good-oh... I hid it well, didn't I.. :)
Same trick, run this batchfile.... it will add a registry entry [or modify the one you have] so that it points to your CD/DVD drive. sfc /scannow should then find the I386 folder on the cd.

==Please copy the text between the lines to a notepad [format/wordwrap unchecked] and save as modSetup.bat, as type "all files", to your desktop; dclick it to run.

______________________________________________
reg add HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Setup /v SourcePath /t REG_SZ /d D:\ /f
______________________________________________

The way things work is that because you did an online update to SP2 you have \I386 in c:\windows\ServicePackFiles -this is where the most up-to-date files are stored in your sys [some from Windows Updates]. For some reason sfc is not working with those and is asking for the cd.... this reg mod directs it to the \I386 folder on the cd. Try running sfc /scannow again.

Alright i Paste that into notepad save. Run. Then..

I just added to my post above...all you see happen is that black cmd window flash. Run sfc /scannow again and see if it works from the cd.

Ok i ran sfc /scannow
everything was working fine and it wasn't asking for the CD

Except then i encountered the same problem as the first time i ran it. It was working fine then all of a sudden my computer just shut off.

Sometimes sfc is really processor-intensive [it is on my sys, the fan screams], and your CPU can overheat - the first thing you know about that is that the puter just shuts off. Power off at the wall [pull the plug], open the case and get to work on the CPU heatsink fins and fan with a soft, longbristled brush and a vacuum cleaner nozzle. Get rid of the dust... I bet tehere is heaps if you have not done this before..
