HI !

This is a continuation of two thred one that was under, I believe Hijack This and one under Internet Problems. merlin and joe5 were successful in helping me get my computer clean of malware the other day. Unfortunatley , I did not know that I had NO security actaully runnung. I found that my Noton Internet Security was disabled und I could not log in to it to turn it on .As well it turned out I was missing a registry key needed to run. I disconnected from the net as I realized I had absolutely NO security runnung, then used an uninsatall tool they sent me. , then installed the AVG Security program. It found? :cry: 16 infected objects- 15 of them were BackDoor and 1 of them? startpage (trojans, it said?). It says they have been deleted and my computer is now protected, but scepticism reigns today. I should probably post this back in the virus section. I have alrady run HJT and got a log going to post. also took a screenshot of my AVG security log right afer it "removed" the viruses ( it would not allow me to copy it)

Thank you :-)!

Youre log still looks clean

But i do see you don't have a firewall yet , have a look here for some free firewalls. And have you tried to run (maybe after a reinstall) Ewido yet? Its a very good program and might still find something and just to be sure you could also run an extra online virus scan. see below the eyes for a link :wink:

Great, joe5. I just downloaded the AvG Firewall to go with the new AVG Free Edition (Virus Protection). I have been emailing ewido support back and forth to find out how to make it work on my computer. It looks like something I would buy if I can make it work. Would that keep the computer clean of syware and adware? It is all so confusing.

Thanks!

With computers and especialy malware nothing is a 100 % sure but ewido would be a good choice , but you could also use the free spybot or not free but also very good spysweeper for protection.

But anyway youre pc is already alot safer with windows updated and an AV + firewall


ps; you already tried to uninstall and reinstall ewido?

Yeah, I uninstalled, then re-installed ewido- no dice. It still just blinks off and closes as soon as it finds a threat (like it's scared of it :-D) I am expecting and answer from their support soon as to how to fix it.

I completed installation of the AVG 7.0 virus plus firewall and thought I would do one last scan to make sure all was clear. It found- 101 new infections! All Trojan- backdoor, downloader, agent, startpage, etc... It says they are "healed" .... but that is what it said last time. Maybe because I did not have the firewall in place? When I removed the Norton Internet Security, it also removed Systemworks- I didn't know it woudl do that. Sigh.

Have a look if spybot or an other app has files quarantined , if you find any then delete those. maybe it keeps finding these files.

Also have you tried an online virus scan to see what the results are?

Yep- Spyware Doctor had a whole list of files in it's quarantine folder. I deleted them. I did an online scan using bitdefender- it found 24 more objects and deleted them. It seems like each program identifies different viruses and infections, but not one of them identifies them all. If they ever make one that does, I'm in!

It looks like all the malware is off and I should be protected now. I am running AVG virus and firewall and spyware doctor now.

Thank you so much for your help! I woudl have been really lost (and impossibly impoverished taking it to have fixed) trying to figure it all out. You guys are great :-)!
