Clicking noise throws off active window, pop-ups
So lately I've been hearing this clicking noise in the background of my desktop, as if I was selecting something, but I'm not. And when it does this, it throws off the box I'm in. So like, I'm typing this now, but I have to reslect the box SEVERAL times to complete my sentence because the box keeps becoming inactive.
Also, in IE, which I never use, (I use firefox) I keep getting porn pop-ups the moment I turn on my computer, and occasionally in the middle of usage.
Thanks in advance if you guys could help me out.
Here's my hijackthislog

Download ComboFix from Here to your Desktop.

**Note: It is important that it is saved directly to your desktop and run from the desktop and not any other folder on your computer**
--------------------------------------------------------------------
1. Close/disable all anti virus and anti malware programs so they do not interfere with the running of ComboFix.
  • 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 or remove some of its embedded files which may cause "unpredictable results"
  • Click on this link to see instructions on how to temporarily disable many security programs while running combofix. 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 after combofix has finished
--------------------------------------------------------------------
2. Close any open browsers and any other programs you might have running
Double click on combofix.exe & follow the prompts.
If you are using windows XP It might display a pop up saying that "Recovery console is not installed, do you want to install?"
Please select yes & let it download the files it needs to do this
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 or freeze ****

Note: ComboFix may reset a number of Internet Explorer's settings, including making it the default browser.
Note: Combofix prevents autorun of ALL CDs, floppies and USB devices to assist with malware removal & increase security. If this is an issue or makes it difficult for you -- please tell us when you reply. Read HERE why we disable autoruns

Please do not install any new programs or update anything unless told to do so while we are fixing your problem.

Thank you for the response, I really appreciate it.
I also thought I should mention I get a pop-up that acts like it's scanning my computer, or says that I have viruses, and whether I want to scan it now.
But anywho, both of my logs are attached, because they were too long.

Download the attached CFScript.txt and save it to your desktop ( click on the link underneath this post & if you are using internet explorer when the "File download" pop up comes press SAVE and choose desktop in the list of selections in that window & press save)
Disable any antivirus/antimalware/firewall realtime protection or script blocking in the same way you did previously before running combofix & remember to re-enable it when it has finished
Close any open browsers
Then drag the CFScript.txt into the ComboFix.exe as shown in the screenshot below.







This will start ComboFix again. It may ask to reboot. Post the contents of Combofix.txt in your next reply together with a new HijackThis log.


Note: these instructions and script were created specifically for this user. If you are not this user, do NOT follow these instructions or use this script as it could damage the workings of your system and will not fix your problem. If you have a similar problem start your own topic in the malware fixing forum

This will create a zip file inside C:\QooBox\ named something like [38]-Submit_2008-01-17@17.50.zip

at the end it will pop up an alert & open your browser and ask you to send the zip file

please follow those instructions. We need to see the zip file before we can carry on with the fix

If there is no pop up alert or open browser then

please go to http://www.thespykiller.co.uk/index.php?board=1.0 and upload these files so I can examine them and if needed distribute them to antivirus companies.
Just press new topic, fill in the needed details and just give a link to your post here & then press the browse button and then navigate to & select the files on your computer, If there is more than 1 file then press the more attachments button for each extra file and browse and select etc and then when all the files are listed in the windows press send to upload the files ( do not post HJT logs there as they will not get dealt with)

Files to submit:
the zip file inside C:\QooBox\ created by combofix named something like [38]-Submit_2008-01-17@17.50.zip

Files to submit:
the zip file inside C:\QooBox\ created by combofix named something like [38]-Submit_2008-01-17@17.50.zip

then

* Run Kaspersky online virus scan Kaspersky Online Scanner.

After the updates have downloaded, click on the "Scan Settings" button.
select the (b)"Spyware, Adware, Dialers and other potentially dangerous programs" for the scan.
Under "Please select a target to scan", click "My Computer".
When the scan is finished, Save the results from the scan!

Note: Kavscan is a scanner only & won't fix anything but will normally find the most infected files so it's report gives us a good place to work from

If that won't run then
Run an online antivirus check from one of the following sites
http://security.symantec.com/default.asp?
http://housecall.trendmicro.com/
http://www.pandasoftware.com/activescan/
http://www.bitdefender.com/scan8/ie.html

that all looks fine now

*Follow these steps to uninstall Combofix and the other tools it downloaded to remove the malware*
* Click *START* then *RUN*
* Now type *Combofix /u* in the runbox and click *OK*. Note the *space* between the *X* and the *U*, it needs to be there.



then
Turn off system restore by following instructions here
for XP http://www.thespykiller.co.uk/index.php?page=8
or for Vista http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/tuto...torial143.html

That will purge the restore folder and clear any malware that has been put in there. Then reboot & then re-enable system restore & create a new restore point. Now Empty Recycle bin on desktop

go here http://www.thespykiller.co.uk/index.php?page=3 for info on how to tighten your security settings and how to help prevent future attacks.

and scan here http://secunia.com/software_inspector/ for out of date & vulnerable common applications on your computer and update whatever it suggests

Then pay an urgent visit to windows update & make sure you are fully updated, that will help to plug the security holes that let these pests on in the first place

Yay! Thanks! I really appreciate it.
And I hate to be a huge bother, but I still get pop-ups on my Internet explorer, and I still get interrupted when I type. (Like the cursor goes away and I have to re-select it.)

lets see what this finds

download Sunbelt Counterspy Free trial

Save the install file to desktop and double click it to install counterspy

Once it has installed, follow the set up wizard which will automatically start, allow it to update itself

It will take a few minutes to update to the latest definitions file versions

run a full scan & when it finishes a window will open with all items found

They should all be marked as quarantine or delete by default so scroll down & check that nothing you know to be good or want to keep is detected. Just in case of an error select Quarantine for everything rather than delete.Then just press the take action button & follow any prompts ( set anything you want to keep as ignore)

post back with it's report ( on the scan page, press view details & copy that report & paste it back here )

Okay well, I did what you said and it told me to reboot.
But in the middle of turning back on, it said it was going to run through a scan again, so I let it. But it ended up freezing twice on 'Cleaning up...' So I cancelled it.
When I got back on, my explorer.exe froze, and the attached 'screen 1' appeared.
After saying no to the script, and okay to the Internet box, I ended 'explorer.exe' and then gave it back the explorer.exe task, and it worked fine.
I wasn't entirely sure what you wanted from the scan report because I couldn't copy and paste anything, so I attached screen 2 which was the main screen, and then screen 3 is what it said after I clicked 'view details'.
