Spyware Problems - Need Help Fast

Hi

This is my logfile. Please not that my Windows OS is in Chinese mandarin, so steps are harder to take and I need detailed instructions. Thanks for your help.

Main problems are browsers windows opening regularly usually related to the search or page I am visiting. Commonly it's Errorsafe and Spanish Luck Casino.

I also have a semi uninstalled program called Podcast Server Pro which has an annoying habit of trying to install itself when I begin using other programs sometimes.

Other software is suffering in its performance - one I can't even use.


I believe this computer is RIDDLED with spyware/adware/malware/viruses.

Norton failed to remove some. The other programs have been executed and run successfully as they can.

I have so far run Norton, Spybot S+D, Ad-aware, Mcafree Stinger and a freeware registry scanner + cleaner.

Still no joy in returning this laptop to it's original functioning capacity.

Read over the following directions. Ask if anything appears unclear to you.


Download Clean.bat to your desktop: for later use to clean out your TEMPORARY and PREFETCH files.
http://www.thatcomputerguy.us/downloads/clean.bat



We will be restarting into Safe Mode later on in the fix and you might not be able to access the Internet. Accordingly, it is probably a good idea to print out the following directions or copy them to a text file on your desktop using NOTEPAD. Read these instructions carefully and feel free to ask if you're unsure about anything.

HIDDEN FILES: To make sure you can see all hidden files, please follow the directions here

SAFEMODE: Boot into safe mode by tapping the F8 key at restart and choosing 'safe mode' menu option (explained here if needed).



Delete TEMPORARY FILES: Now, hunt down the most common temporary file locations and the temporary file clutter contained therein (and of possible malware hiding places):

Go to Start > Run and type: CLEANMGR.EXE and hit enter.
When prompted select the C: drive and click ok.
Check the boxes for:

• Temporary Internet Files
• Downloaded Program Files
• Recycle Bin
• Temporary Files

Click OK or Enter

For additional, more thorough cleaning and for multi-profile user configurations:
(*) Run Clean.bat to clean up your TEMPorary files.

***** Clean out the Recycle Bin for items removed below, ONLY once you have regained the full functional use of your PC.




Navigate to these files or folders using Windows Explorer (OR Start -> Search) and delete (if present):


DELETE FILES:

C:\WINDOWS\system32\irsmesxq.dll
C:\WINDOWS\DOWNLO~1\BaiDuBar.dll
C:\WINDOWS\system32\irssyncd.exe




POST A REVISED HIJACKTHIS LOG for review:

Hi

Really sorry, I took the law into my own hands before I got this response in frustration to the program I wanted to use and uninstalled a whole bunch of software I'm not using, also stopped some things running on startup I thought looked either that I didn't put them there, or that I knew I don't wat taking up resources.

Now when I take the cursor over my "start" button or anywhere in that area, it changes to a double black arrow shape and takes a long time to respond. All windows are taking a long time to respond and alos I'm getting a very jittery egg-timer.

Just to let you know.
I will follow instruction now, rather than take the law into my own hands so to speak.

thanks forthe help so far.

The system seems faster and cleaner now than ever in the last 2 years or so!!

However /i haven't surfed the web extensively yet, so I don't know whether I'm still hoowahed or Errorsearch. I also get context related search popups.

Thanks alot for the expert advice so far.

Let's get this computer cured and shining brightly.

Cyber-miracle workers is what youi people are.

If all you were doing was uninstalling, then it is hard to see why certain new HJT lines have all of a sudden appeared.

REBOOT.




Make sure to go to the following link and ensure that you setup/run SpyBot and Ad-Aware if you haven't already done so. Reboot if anything is fixed in either application:

Read This First - IMPORTANT Instructions



Also try to do the following scan if you can:

Please download, install, update and scan your system with the free (trial) version of Ewido trojan scanner:

1. When installing, under "Additional Options" uncheck "Install background guard" and "Install scan via context menu".
2. When you run ewido for the first time, you will get a warning "Database could not be found!". Click OK. We will fix this in a moment.
3. From the main ewido screen, click on update in the left menu, then click the Start update button.
4. After the update finishes (the status bar at the bottom will display "Update successful"), click on the Scanner button in the left menu, then click on the Start button. This scan can take quite a while to run, so time to go get a drink and a snack....
5. If ewido finds anything, it will pop up a notification. You can select "clean" and check the boxes "Perform action with all infections" and "Create encrypted backup" before clicking on OK.
6. When the scan finishes, click on "Save Report". This will create a text file. Please then paste the contents of the text file to this thread.

REBOOT.

Hi

63 infections were deleted by EWIDO, I could not save the log because my OS is in Chinese and I couldn't work out how to save the file or change language. Hijack this file follows.

Cheers.

HJT log now looks clean.


How is your PC behaving now?


You could fix the following clutter item in HJT:

R3 - Default URLSearchHook is missing




If you wish, it wouldn't be a bad idea to run two additional scans (an AV second opinion and a general malware scanner):



Please do an online scan (scan only tool) with Kaspersky WebScanner

Click on Kaspersky Online Scanner

You will be prompted to install an ActiveX component from Kaspersky, Click Yes.

• The program will launch and then begin downloading the latest definition files:
• Once the files have been downloaded click on NEXT
  
• Now click on Scan Settings
• In the scan settings make sure that the following are selected:
  • Scan using the following Anti-Virus database:
    - Extended (if available otherwise Standard)
  • Scan Options:
    - Scan Archives
    - Scan Mail Bases
• Click OK
• Now under select a target to scan:
  • Select My Computer
• This program will start and scan your system.
• The scan will take a while so be patient and let it run.
• Once the scan is complete it will display if your system has been infected.
  • Now click on the Save as Text button:
• Save the file to your desktop.
• Copy and paste that information in your next post, if anything unusual is reported.

Place a shortcut to Panda ActiveScan on your desktop.


Run the Panda ActiveScan shortcut.
- Once you are on the Panda site click the Scan your PC button
- A new window will open...click the Check Now button
- Enter your Country
- Enter your State/Province
- Enter your e-mail address and click send
- Select either Home User or Company
- Click the big Scan Now button
- If it wants to install an ActiveX component allow it
- It will start downloading the files it requires for the scan (Note: It may take a couple of minutes)
- When download is complete, click on Local Disks to start the scan
- When the scan completes, if anything malicious is detected, click the See Report button, then Save Report and save it to a convenient location.


Post a Panda log back here, if anything is reported.



Happy computing!

Thanks for your help Vince. The main thing is the program that wasn't running properly is not working again.

Panda scanner did not work so I'm downloading the full antivirus from download.com

Here is the Kapersky log. I let it scan the most of my main hard drive. It stopped scanning in my c:/windows/ diretory somewherer at 39%

I also ran Panda Antivirus Titanium which removed 8 viruses/adwares.
I deleted 2 lines from Hijack this involving MSN messenger which I no longer use.

My system seems slowed up again, no random IE browser windows opening/adware. Program is not working which I want to run again.
