Hello paul,

Since those two O4 entries are still appearing in your HJT log, it would appear that Stinger did not get rid of the whole infection. Don't get frustrated though, it often takes more than one go around to get rid of an infection.

I'm going to consult with some others on different methods of removing this infection, should the following not work. Meanwhile, let's do the this:

Disable system restore. Reboot to make the changes take effect.

Next, please download and run the Symantec removal tool.

Next, Re-enable system restore. System restore should automatically create a new system restore point. If it does not, please create one manually. Once again, reboot for the changes to take effect.

Run HiJackThis and click "Scan", then check(tick) the following, if present:

O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [ Windows] C:\WINDOWS\WinSecurity\services.exe
O4 - HKCU\..\Run: [_Windows] C:\WINDOWS\WinSecurity\services.exe

O17 - HKLM\System\CCS\Services\Tcpip\..\{F41C4BDE-C51B-42CD-9359-D7468126A653}: NameServer = 192.168.0.3,217.13.128.17
...(Verify that these ip addresses are for your isp's DNS Servers, if so, don't 'fix' these.)

With all windows closed except HiJackThis, click "Fix checked".

From "Safe Mode", (Reboot if necessary.) locate and delete the following item(s), if present. Make sure you're able to view system and hidden files/ folders:

To show hidden files :

1. Click Start=>Control Panel=>Folder Options=>View tab.
2. Select "Show hidden files and folders"
3. Clear the check mark in "Hide protected operating system files"=>Yes[/color] to confirm.

We have noticed a few things with your access to our forum.

1.
Several people are having logs done from the same IP number - YOURS.

2.
They have all registered in the last few days, all with different machines.

Our rules state that a person is not allowed to have more than one username registered at our forum.

I have moved all your topics to this room :-
http://www.malwareremoval.com/forum/viewforum.php?f=78

It is hidden from normal public view, and I would like you to please explain what is going on here.

What it looks like is that you are one person, and are using our services to provide a service toother people, possibly for a fee.

Can you pease explain what is going on.

Hi Chris

There are six of us that work from home supporting an ecommerce site. A couple of us had problems with our pc and we decided following your great support on the first that we should check them all.

Many apologises if this has caused a problem, we were not aware that we could not do this.

I can assure you that we are not selling your services. We are just very greatful to have found a knowledge base that can assist us with getting our pc clean and not potentially infecting our customers or suppliers.

Many thanks

Paul

I will leave you all in this room for a day or two before moving them all back to normal rooms.

All your helpers also have access to this room.
Do you have a link to your :-
