[ChipSweeper]

Here's my logfile, XP. Several things going on: I get a non-removable bar at the top of the screen that hides links I need for Google, I get a constant question if I want to approve the addition of an IE Helper titled "dxpvqlmnsr". And then there's alot of slowness. PLEASE HELP.

Hi Welcome to TSG!!

Download SDFix and save it to your Desktop.

Please close/disable all anti-virus and anti-malware programs so they do not interfere with the running of SDFixFix and make sure you are disconnected from the Internet after downloading the program and before scanning.


Double click SDFix.exe and choose Install to extract it to its own folder on the Desktop. Please then reboot your computer in Safe Mode by doing the following :

• Restart your computer
• After hearing your computer beep once during startup, but before the Windows icon appears, tap the F8 key continually;
• Instead of Windows loading as normal, a menu with options should appear;
• Select the first option, to run Windows in Safe Mode, then press "Enter".
• Choose your usual account.

• Open the c:\SDFix folder and double click RunThis.cmd to start the script.
• Type Y to begin the script.
• It will remove the Trojan Services then make some repairs to the registry and prompt you to press any key to Reboot.
• Press any Key and it will restart the PC.
• Your system will take longer that normal to restart as the fixtool will be running and removing files.
• When the desktop loads the Fixtool will complete the removal and display Finished, then press any key to end the script and load your desktop icons.
• Finally open the SDFix folder on your desktop and copy and paste the contents of the results file Report.txt back onto the forum with a new HijackThis log

Please close/disable all anti-virus and anti-malware programs so they do not interfere with the running of ComboFix and make sure you are disconnected from the Internet after downloading the program and before scanning.

• Very Important! Temporarily disable your anti-virus, script blocking and any anti-malware real-time protection before performing a scan. They can interfere with ComboFix and remove some of its embedded files which may cause "unpredictable results".
• Click on this link to see a list of programs that should be disabled. The list is not all inclusive. If yours is not listed and you don't know how to disable it, please ask.
• Remember to re-enable the protection again afterwards before connecting to the Internet.

Download ComboFix and save it to your desktop.

**Note: In the event you already have ComboFix, this is a new version that I need you to download. It is important that it is saved directly to your desktop**

Close any open browsers and make sure you are disconnected from the net. Unplug the cable if need be before running ComboFix.

• WARNING: IF you have not already done so ComboFix will disconnect your machine from the Internet when it starts.
• Please do not re-connect your machine back to the Internet until ComboFix has completely finished.
• If there is no Internet connection when Combofix has completely finished then restart your computer to restore the connection.

Double-click on combofix.exe and follow the prompts. When finished, it will produce a report for you. Please post the "C:\ComboFix.txt" along with a new HijackThis log for further review.

**Note: Do not mouseclick comboFix's window while it's running. That may cause it to stall**

While I was waiting for this site, there was a step by step on another site that I followed and it seems to have worked. I will keep your instructions for future use.

Thank you very much.
