Solved: New Problem
Hi,

I've got the same problem, but whenever the Sitebar application pops up, so does a window with C:\WINDOWS\System32\cmd.exe pops up as well, and from there on in, I cannot access the internet. I can only access it for about 5 mins after restarting. I've tried all the steps above. Here's my Hijack this log:

Hi xtylerx

Welcome to Tech Support Guy Forums!

I have split your post off to its own thread, it is less confusing that way.

Please continue replies here.

Thank You

HiJack This V1.99.1 http://thespykiller.co.uk/files/hijackthis_sfx.exe - double click the DL file and click UNZIP letting it extract to its default folder C:\Program FIles\HiJackThis, run it from there

Fix these with HJT – mark them, close IE, click fix checked

O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [WINDOWS SYSTEM MANAGER] \spoolsvc.exe

O4 - HKLM\..\RunServices: [WINDOWS SYSTEM MANAGER] \spoolsvc.exe

O23 - Service: Local Security Authority Subsystem Service (lsass) - Unknown owner - C:\WINDOWS\lsass.exe
=============

Click Start > Run > and type in:

services.msc

Click OK.

In the services window find this EXACT name

Local Security Authority Subsystem Service

Rightclick and choose "Properties". On the "General" tab under "Service Status" click the "Stop" button to stop the service. Beside "Startup Type" in the dropdown menu select "Disabled". Click Apply then OK. File-Exit the Services utility.

Restart your computer into safe mode now. (Tapping F8 at the first black screen) Perform the following steps in safe mode:

Double-click on Killbox.exe to run it. Now put a tick by Standard File Kill. In the "Full Path of File to Delete" box, copy and paste each of the following lines one at a time then click on the button that has the red circle with the X in the middle after you enter each file. It will ask for confimation to delete the file. Click Yes. Continue with that same procedure until you have copied and pasted all of these in the "Paste Full Path of File to Delete" box.

C:\WINDOWS\lsass.exe

Note: It is possible that Killbox will tell you that one or more files do not exist. If that happens, just continue on with all the files. Be sure you don't miss any.

Exit the Killbox.


START – RUN – type in %temp% OK - Edit – Select all – File – Delete
Delete everything in the C:\Windows\Temp folder or C:\WINNT\temp
Empty the recycle bin
Boot and post a new log from normal NOT safe mode

lsass.exe is still there..does that mean I did something wrong? In Killbox, it said that the file could not be deleted

I will assume this is "legit" - http://www.absolutepunk.net/

Careful there is a valid lsass but it is in system32 try deleteing the one I gave you again.

Clean - If you feel it is fixed, mark it solved via thread tools above - if not what is the current situation?
