Hey, for about 2 months now my computer has been suffering from freakin popups which started by Win Anti Virus....then as time went by i got Drive Cleaner popups...and the thing is with these damn popups is that right when you X one out..it'll prompt another one, and if it doesn't do that it will take the current page i am browsing and make resize the window to about 4inches x 6inches and replace the page with another popup advertisment. Along with that my IE shortcuts don't work...when i click them they look like they are going to load and nothing happens, sometimes if I'm lucky if i click the icon real fast it might work.

Here my Hijack This Log:

Help figuring out how to go about deleting this malaware and whatever else I have would be great.

O, and i forgot to say that I'v tryed adaware to clean up like i usually do but when i scan it crashes my computer...i looked up the problem and other people are having same deal.

Welcome,



*Download VundoFix.exe to your desktop.
* Double-click VundoFix.exe to run it.
* Put a check next to "Run VundoFix as a task."
* You will receive a message saying vundofix will close and re-open in a minute or less. Click "OK".
* When VundoFix re-opens, click the "Scan for Vundo" button.
* Once it's done scanning, click the "Remove Vundo" button.
* If it says "No infected files were found", right-click the blank listbox (white box) in the main VundoFix window.
* Select "Add More Files?" from the menu that comes up. This will open a new VundoFix window that says "Paste files into the boxes below:"




* In the top/first field, copy and paste the path to the dll: C:\WINDOWS\system32\keyH32.dll

* In the next/second field, copy and paste the path to the reversed file:

C:\WINDOWS\system32\23Hyek.*



* Click the "Add Files" button.
* Click the "Close Window" button.
* Click the Remove Vundo button.
* You will receive a prompt asking if you want to remove the files, click "YES".
* Once you click yes, your desktop will go blank as it starts removing Vundo.
* When completed, it will prompt that it will shutdown your computer, click "OK".
* Turn your computer back on.
* Please post the contents of C:\vundofix.txt and a new HiJackThis log.


Then...



Please download http://siri.urz.free.fr/Fix/SmitfraudFix.zip (by S!Ri)
Extract the content (a folder named SmitfraudFix) to your Desktop.

Open the SmitfraudFix folder and double-click smitfraudfix.cmd
Select option #1 - Search by typing 1 and press "Enter"; a text file will appear, which lists infected files (if present).
Please copy/paste the content of that report into your next reply.

Please do not run any other option until asked to do so, Thanks

Note : process.exe is detected by some antivirus programs (AntiVir, Dr.Web, Kaspersky) as a "RiskTool"; it is not a virus, but a program used to stop system processes. Antivirus programs cannot distinguish between "good" and "malicious" use of such programs, therefore they may alert the user.

Please post a new hijackthis log and the smitfraudfix log. Thanks.

i ran vundo and i had two options, Scan for Vundo, and Remove Vindo, i don't see any check box saying Run Vundo as a task. I'll just stay on hold untill i get that clarified then ill continue with your instructions. Thanks
