Hya Helpme123456, welcome to PCHF.



Do you use the LogMeIn remote control software yourself?


First please go to add/remove programs and uninstall these, if present:

WhenUSaveNow
Media Gateway


Now download Brute Force Uninstaller to your desktop.

• Right click the BFU folder on your desktop, and choose Extract All
• Click "Next"
• In the box to choose where to extract the files to,
• Click "Browse"
• Click on the + sign next to "My Computer"
• Click on "Local Disk (C: ) or whatever your primary drive is
• Click "Make New Folder"
• Type in BFU
• Click "Next", and Uncheck the "Show Extracted Files" box and then click "Finish".

3. RIGHT-CLICK HERE and choose "Save As" (in IE it's "Save Target As") in order to download MediaGateway Remover.
Save it in the same folder you made earlier (c:\BFU).

Then, please go to Start > My Computer and navigate to the C:\BFU folder.

• Start the Brute Force Uninstaller by doubleclicking BFU.exe
• Behind the scriptline to execute field click the folder icon and select MediaGateway.BFU
• Press Execute and let it do it’s job. (You ought to see a progress bar if you did this correctly.)
• Wait for the complete script execution box to pop up and press OK.
• Press exit to terminate the BFU program.

After that run HijackThis , select to do a "system scan only" and then place a check beside each of the following:
(if still present)

Now first close all windows and browsers other then HijackThis , then click Fix checked and close HijackThis.


Then manually delete these files/folders:
(if still present)

C:\Program Files\DaemonTools_WhenUSaveNow_Installer
C:\PROGRAM FILES\Media Gateway
C:\WINDOWS\system32\dmqjt.exe


After that reboot your pc, and post a new HijackThis log please.

I would recomend a couple of anti-spyware/adware programs as well, here a couple of free ones

Spybot Search and Destroy 1.4
Download Spybot Search and Destroy 1.4 - filehippo.com

Ad-Aware Personal 1.06
Download Ad Aware Personal 1.06 - filehippo.com

Looking great. Looks like you're all clean.


Do you still have any problems with your pc? And also:

Do to lack of feedback, and seeing as the pc is clean, marked as Fixed.


Now that you are clean I would like to direct you to the Now That You Are All Clean / Malware Prevention , AKA "Afterwork" to try to limit the change of a reinfection as much as possible.
