QUOTE Combo Fix it also tried to change my Default Search engine settings Yes, ComboFix will reset default search settings to default MS values. Reason why I asked how you knew was that I was trying to ascertain if any 3rd party program was interfering with ComboFix. ComboFix's log looks okay. Just that niggling orphaned registry entry that needs fixing. When our previous attempt failed, I thought that your infection may have regenerated. ComboFix shows that you're still okay. Lets take another whack at clearing that stubborn registry entry. CODE @echo off set "key=hklm\system\currentcontrolset\control\lsa" swreg acl "%key%" /reset /q swreg query "%key%" /v "authentication packages" >log.txt call :WriteLog swreg delete "%key%" /v "authentication packages" swreg delete "%key%" /v "reg_multi_sz" >nul 2>&1 swreg add "%key%" /v "authentication packages" /t reg_multi_sz /d "msv1_0" swreg query "%key%" /v "authentication packages" >>log.txt call :WriteLog swreg acl "%key%" /ro:f /ra:f /q swreg acl "%key%" >>log.txt Start Notepad log.txt Nircmd wait 1500 del log.txt del %0 :WriteLog echo.>>log.txt echo.============>>log.txt echo.>>log.txt |

Hi sUBs,
I take it that you want me to save this code in notepad as before i.e. save as fix.bat and choose to "Save type as - all files"? Benny |

Here's what it looks like when I ran it on my machine. There's a before & after section.

I've run it a 3rd time and I think it's the same as before but I've posted the new one again anyway.
When I save the file the encoding is ANSI. There are 3 other codes Unicode, Unicode big endian and CTF-8. I take it that ANSI is the one I want?

Looking at it again then I think the last fix.bat is what you are looking for.
I'll check in again in 4 or 5 hours to see if it was. Benny |

Yes, that's the correct one. The malware entry has been removed.
How's the machine now? |

To be honest the machine seems fine and has done so since you very kindly wrote that script for me to drag into ComboFix last weekend.
I take it that my computer is now clean and I'll go ahead and make a new systems restore point to reflect that? I would like to thankyou very much for your time, efforts and patience with me over this. All your help has been greatly appreciated and over the next couple of days I will make a donation to this site to reflect that. Thanks once again to you and to jpshortstuff for all his help as well. Many Thanks Benny |

Now that your system is clean, kindly follow these simple steps in order to keep your computer clean and secure:
Update all these programs regularly. Make sure you update all the programs I have listed regularly. Without regular updates you WILL NOT be protected when new malicious programs are released. Follow this list and your potential for being infected again will reduce dramatically. Here are some additional utilities that will further enhance your safety.
To find out more information about how you got infected in the first place and some great guidelines to follow to prevent future infections you can read this article by Tony Klein - http://computercops.biz/postlite7736-.html After doing all these, your system will be optimised against future threats. It's okay to delete the Hijack This folder in a couple weeks if everything is working okay. Have a safe & happy computing day. ![]() Kindly respond to this thread once more so we can mark this thread as resolved. |

Thankyou to sUBs for your final post in this thread and for the tips on how to delete ComboFix and the Virus/Malware stuff etc etc although I did follow very similar lines before my computer got infected but I will be doubley sure to do so from now onwards.
Also just to ditto jpshortstuff's comments about sUBs help that he gave me in this thread and I am forever in gratitude to you for this. Lastly just to thank jpshortstuff again who helped me out also and got the ball rolling. Thanks guys. Benny |
