Can you guys help me?
I have recently experienced problems with IE whereby my homepage is constantly being changed to about:blank and my pc is running really slowly.
I have read some articles that I found by searching on the net and downloaded and ran Spybot & Spysweeper but they have been unable to resolve the problem although Spysweeper keeps popping up to tell me that my homepage has been changed yet again.
I have discovered your site and have read other members similar problems. I have downloaded Hijackthis and have posted the log for you to have a look at. I would be grateful for any help because as a fairly inexperienced PC user I feel like throwing my pc out of the window!!!
Thanks in anticipation of your reply.

Hi Erik, you have a particularly nasty version of the CoolWebSearch trojan, please do not run CWShredder as it won't work at this stage, please follow the following steps:
Step 1. Download this file from
http://downloads.subratam.org/dllfix.exe
or
http://tools.zerosrealm.com/dllfix.exe
and save it in a place you like.
Step 2. The file when downloaded will be dllfix.exe.
Step 3. Double-Click or Open the self-extracting file. It will ask for installation and change location. Please Keep it in BOOT drive and not in any place else. Preferably in Desktop.
Step 4. Navigate to the folder with the contents of the file. You will see there are two more folders inside and two BAT files.
Step 5. Run start.bat and you should get a screen with 4 options.
Run the Option 1. for report.
Step 6. Once the search is complete a ".txt" file should pop up with the name "Output.txt".
Copy and paste that file back to this thread.
-
Thanks for your quick reply.
I have completed your instructons and the Output.txt is posted below. I look forward to your reply. Many thanks.

O.K. Erik, you've killed the bad .dll now we can clean up:
Download, update and run
CWShredder
Click Fix, don't just scan. Let it fix everything it asks about.
Next please download and run the following :
1) SpyBot Search and Destroy
After installing SpyBot Search & Destroy, first press Online, and search for, put a check mark at, and install all updates.
Next, close all Internet Explorer windows, hit 'Check for Problems', have SpyBot remove all the items it marks in red.
2) Ad-Aware
After installing Ad-Aware, and before running the program, first press “check for updates now".
Click "Connect" and install all updated components available. Click 'Finish'.
Press "Scan Now", then 'next', and let Ad-Aware scan your drives.
It will find a number of "bad" files and registry keys. Click 'Next' again.
Check all found items, and click 'next' once more.
It will ask you whether you'd like to remove all checked items. Click OK.
Always reboot the computer between each program - both of these may find things that they need to have a reboot of the machine to clear - please reboot and let them finish.
Post another HijackThis log back here and we'll get rid of the last bits, you're nearly there.
-
I have run the programs and my system appears to be running as well as it did before my problems started.
I have posted another HijackThis file as requested and look forward to your reply.

Clean as a whistle Erik
To reduce the potential for spyware infection in the future, I strongly recommend installing SpywareBlaster and SpyWareGuard and IE/Spyad.
SpywareBlaster and SpywareGuard are by JavaCool and both are free programs. SpywareBlaster will prevent spyware from being installed and consumes no system resources. SpywareGuard offers realtime protection from spyware installation attempts.
More info and download is available at:
SpywareBlaster: http://www.javacoolsoftware.com/spywareblaster.html
SpywareGuard: http://www.wilderssecurity.net/spywareguard.html
IE/Spyad places over 4000 websites and domains in the IE Restricted list which will severely impair attempts to infect your system. It is free.
More info and download is available at:
