Note: I ran these in the order you mentioned above but as you can see the file name has changed again. Sorry for posting out of sequence, I will pay more attention now.

otmoveit2 log:

file changed to:
c:\documents and settings\steve\local settings\application data\qbvxkdr.exe
=====================
result of moveit (green area):
File move failed. c:\documents and settings\steve\local settings\application data\qbvxkdr.exe scheduled to be moved on reboot.

OTMoveIt2 by OldTimer - Version 1.0.4.1 log created on 04252008_235336
======================
Got a prompt to reboot, so I did.
Hello!

It is important that you dont reboot until we get this infection killed. It changes file name everytime you reboot.


Run CFScript

Open Notepad and copy/paste the text in the box into the window:


File::
c:\documents and settings\steve\local settings\application data\qbvxkdr.exe

Registry::
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run]
"qbvxkdr"=-



Save it to your desktop as CFScript.txt

Refering to the picture above drag CFScript.txt into ComboFix.exe This will let ComboFix runagain. Restart if you have to. Save the produced logfile to your desktop.

Note: Do not mouseclick combofix's window whilst it's running. That may cause it to stall

Sorry for the delay posting back (had a family emergency to deal with).

I followed your instructions in the last post tonight and the problem seems to be gone now (no pop-ups in the last hour). Great job!

Thank you very much. :-)
