Help-yield.com rerouting google searches.

[Decanthas]

I have a problem with my browser rerouting google searches to a site "powered by Yahoo" under the domain name "help-yield.com". It also seems to be rerouting yahoo searches as well.

I have read that this is malware and cannot find adequate instructions on how to remove it.

Thank you for any help.

Hello Decanthas, welcome to MWR
Please take note of the following before we begin the cleaning process:

• The whole process will usually take at least a week complete, sometimes several weeks depending on the severity of the infection and how promptly you and me are able to reply, so please stay patient
• Hang in there until I give you the 'All clean'. If you leave prematurely because your computer seems to be back to its old self, the risk of re-infection will be very high
• Perform all actions in the order given
• The instructions I give expect that you're using an account with administrator privileges and that the language of your operating system is English.
• Dont be afraid to ask questions if something is unclear or you run into issues during cleaning steps
• I recommend you read through each set of instructions before you actually perform them

Create an uninstall list

• Launch Hijackthis
• Click the Open the Misc Tools section button
• Click the Open Uninstall Manager button.
• Click the Save list button.
• Include this log in your next reply

[Decanthas]

I need to see some more logs and then I'll create a fix for you.

1) Download and run GooredFix

• Download GooredFix from here and save it to your Desktop
• Double-click GooredFix.exe to run the tool
• Select 1. Find Goored (no fix) by typing 1 and pressing Enter
• When the scan has finished, a log will open
• Post the contents of this log in your next reply
  (If you somehow lose the log, you can find it on your desktop in a document named Goored.txt)

Note:
Do not run this tool with Option #2 yet

2) Download and run GMER

• Download gmer.zip by GMER from here and extract it to a folder on your desktop
• Double click on gmer.exe to launch the program
• If asked, allow the gmer.sys driver to load
• If it warns you about rootkit activity and asks if you want to run scan, click OK
• If you don't get a warning, click the Rootkit/Malware tab and then Scan
• Once the scan has finished, click copy
• Create a new notepad document on your desktop, name it "gmerrk.txt", open it, insert the GMER log by right-clicking in the document and chosing Paste, and then save the document
• Include this log in your next reply

3) Download and run DDS by sUBs

• Download DDS from one of the links below and save it to your desktop
  Link1 | Link2 | Link3
• Double-click the file to run the tool
• A black window will stay open while the tool runs
• Wait for the scan to finish (this will only take a couple of minutes), and two logs to open in separate notepad documents
• Include both these logs in your next reply

4) Get a new HiJackThis log

• Launch Hijackthis
• Click on the Do a system scan and save a logfile button
• HJT will run a scan and a log will open in Notepad
• Include this log in your next reply

Logs I need:

GooredFix log
GMER log
Both DDS logs
New HJT log

[Decanthas]

Thank you by the way. You are volunteering your time to help a stranger.

[Sharagoz]

Thank you by the way

You're welcome!

Please post future logs directly in the reply, not as attachments, unless the log is very long

It seems GMER didnt produce what I hoped it would produce.
Lets try a different procedure.

1) Re-run GMER

• Right-click on gmer.exe and chose Run as administrator to launch the program
• If asked, allow the gmer.sys driver to load
• If it warns you about rootkit activity and asks if you want to run scan, click OK
• If you don't get a warning, click the Rootkit/Malware tab and then Scan
• Once the scan has finished, click copy
• Create a new notepad document on your desktop, name it "gmerrk.txt", open it, insert the GMER log by right-clicking in the document and chosing Paste, and then save the document
• This log must be included in your next reply
• Back in GMER, click on the >>> tab to bring up additional tabs
• Click on the Autostart tab and then click Scan
• Once the scan has finished, click copy, start a new reply here, right click and select "paste" to copy the log.
• Also remember to copy the content of "gmerrk.txt" into the reply

Please note that Im asking for two logs from GMER this time, not one

I also need you to repost a new HJT log, because notepads "word wrap" corrupted the format. Make sure you dont skip the step marked in red.
2) Get a new HiJackThis log

• Launch Hijackthis
• Click on the Do a system scan and save a logfile button
• HJT will run a scan and a log will open in Notepad
• Click Format and make sure Word wrap does not have a checkmark
• Include this log in your next reply

P2P warning
You have µTorrent installed on your computer. This is a peer-to-peer program used to share files between computers.
There are several issues related to this:

• P2P programs are notorious for being bundled with unwanted adware/spyware programs
• Poorly configured P2P programs can share more files than you want them too, including personal files
• Since its impossible to establish the source of which you are copying files from, you will always be at a certan risk every time you download a file. Malware written to spesifically spread through P2P networks are becoming an increasing problem and may be the source of your current infection. Even if you can trust the P2P program itself, you can never trust the sources you download from.

By MWR policy I am forced to ask that you uninstall this program if you wish me to further help you with your malware issues.
For more info, read MWR policy on P2P programs

To uninstall the program, go to Add/Remove Programs and uninstall the following:
µTorrent

If you chose to continue, do the below:

Post fresh DDS logs, using the same procedure as you used in step 3 of this post

Check file size this file and let me know what that file size is:

C:\Windows\system32\ActiveToolBand.dll

Question:

You're running AVG 7.5. Is this the free or pro version?
