Hey,

Since a couple days, I've been having this pop out that tells me that Im infected and that I should download their Anti Virus called " AntiVirus Pro 2006" Im pretty sure its like that or its something like that. Enyways, I always click close but it pop ou again then it starts downloading it ( Well, like the little window to download pops out ), I close it. Everything is fine. This pop out comes one time on two when I open Internet Explorer or Mozilla Firefox. The Anti-Virus told me I had a virus named " Anti Virus Pro 06" So I deleted it. I passed the Anti Spyware like 10 times. It says he doesnt find anything called Anti Virus pro 06 now but the pop out still comes sometimes. I passed the Anti Virus back after it pops out but it doesnt find anything. How the hell do I get rid of that stupid pop out? I deleted all my cookies by the way too. I pass anti Spyware every time I see the pop out and theres always the same Spywares.

Also, the WinLogon.exe closes itself when I start my computer saying its an error. Before I deleted the virus, another message came about WinLogon.exe and made me restart my comp. Now it doesnt come but the window saying that the WinLogon.exe is closing because of an error is still coming. Dunno if it has anything to do with the AntiVirus pro 2006 thingy but enyways. When it started, I made a system restore but it didint seemed to fixed it.

What do I do?

Hello D4rkBl4de

Anti Virus Pro is on the Rogue Anti-Spyware list.

If your using Win XP or 2000, do this.

First, print out these instructions, or copy them to a NotePad file for reading while in Safe Mode, because you will not be able to connect to the Internet to read from this site.

Then please download, install and update Ewido Anti-Spyware v4.0. DO NOT perform a scan yet.
Print out the Ewido Install and Scan Instructions.

Go here and follow the instructions for using SmitfraudFix. Read "How to create/extract a ZIP File in Win ME/XP/2003" or "How to create/extract a ZIP File in Win 9x/2000" if your not sure how to do this.

After using the tool reboot again in "SAFE MODE" and Clean out your Temporary Internet files as follows:
  • Quit Internet Explorer and quit any instances of Windows Explorer.
  • Click Start, click Control Panel, and then double-click Internet Options.
  • On the General tab, click "Delete Files" under Temporary Internet Files.
  • In the Delete Files dialog box, tick the "Delete all offline content check box", and then click "OK".
  • On the General tab, click "Delete Cookies" under Temporary Internet Files, and then click "OK".
  • Click on the Programs tab then click the Reset Web Settings button. Click "Apply" then "OK".
  • Click "OK".
Next Click Start, click Control Panel and then double-click Display. Click on the Desktop tab, then click the Customize Desktop button. Click on the Web tab. Under Web Pages you should see a checked entry called Security info or something similar. If it is there, select that entry and click the Delete button. Click "Ok" then "Apply" and "Ok".

Empty the Recycle Bin by right-clicking the Recycle Bin icon on your Desktop, and then clicking Empty Recycle Bin.

Then scan with Ewido per the instructions you printed out and reboot back to normal mode.

Lets have a deeper look as to what's going on with your system by creating a hijackthis log. This will help to identify and remove any malware files that may be responsible for your problems.

Please read and follow all instructions in the pinned topic titled "Preparation Guide For Use Before Posting A Hijackthis Log". When you have done that, post a log in the HijackThis Logs and Analysis Forum, not here, for assistance by the HJT Team Experts. A member of the Team will walk you through, step by step, on how to clean your computer.

Start a new topic, give it a relevant title and post your log along with a brief description of your problem, a summary of any anti-malware tools you have used and a summary of any steps that you have performed on your own. Please include the top portion of the HijackThis log that lists version information. An expert will analyze your log and reply with instructions advising you what to fix.

It may take a while to get a response because the HJT Team members are very busy working logs posted before yours. Please be patient. They are volunteers who will help you out as soon as possible. Once you have made your post and are waiting, please DO NOT make another reply until it has been responded to by a member of the HJT Team. Generally the staff checks the forum for postings that have no replies as this makes it easier for them to identify those who have not been helped. If you post another response, a team member, looking for a new log to work may assume another HJT Team member is already assisting you and not open the thread to respond.

If after 5 days you still have received no response, then post a link to your HJT log here.

After posting a log you should NOT make further changes to your computer (install/uninstall programs, use special fix tools, delete files, edit the registry, etc.) unless advised by a HJT Team member. Doing so can result in system changes which may not show it the log you already posted and any modifications you make may complicate the malware removal process.
