Maggi,

Why aren't you posting your entire Hijack This log instead of just the items that strike you as funny?

I told you in the other thread you have a backdoor trojan starting up, but I'm not hearing you talk about that one.

And you probably have lots of other stuff that needs attention.

If you're interested in having us assist you to get rid of unneccessary items, please help us to help you.

 

OK, as you wish, then:

Sysmon16.exe is the trojan startup, and Save.exe is spyware.

Have Hijack This fix both.

Reboot, find and delete Sysmon16.exe.

Run an online scan on Panda Active Scan

Next, download Spybot - Search & Destroy

After installing, press Online, and search for, put a check mark at, and install all updates.

Next, go to the Settings tab > File Sets, and uncheck 'System Internals' and 'Tracks' .
These aren't needed for our present purpose, and you can always experiment with them later on.

Finally, after closing down Internet Explorer, hit 'Check for Problems', and have SpyBot remove all it finds.

No prob, Maggi!

You actually did a fine job, as Sysmon16.exe and Save.exe are the only two items you really need to have Hijack This fix.

If you do exactly what I just told you, you'll be fine.

Don't forget to find and delete the Sysmon16.exe file, and to run SpyBot in order to remove SaveNow.

Good luck,

 

Hi Tony
Just Logged on, I am now going to follow your instructions . thanks a lot, will let you know how I get on.
Thanks
Maggi

 

Hi Tony
I did all the things you said, and Spybot did its works real good, so I have fixed and removed all problem files. I only have 1 problem now, and i wonder if you can help. Where do I look for the sysmon16.exe file, I trie to locate on find. but it says its not there. I have started to manually search my folders, If you know of a quicker way, please can you let me know, thanks,
Maggi in Australia

 

If you don't find it using find to search your harddrives then you will not be able to find it manually in your files. Go to start\run\ type regedit press ok. Click edit\find type in Sysmon16 and press find next. Make sure that the 16 is in there sysmon is a valid windows progam. If it is found in the registry right click on it and delete it. When asked are you sure press yes. Continue through to the end of the registry with edit\find next. That should take care of it.

All you need to do is have Hijack This fix the following items:

O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [WhenUSave] C:\PROGRA~1\SAVE\Save.exe
O4 - HKLM\..\RunServices: [System Monitor] sysmon16.exe

That will remove their startup entries from the registry, so there's no need to do a manual search on top of that.

If you subsequently reboot, the files themselves won't load, and will therefore not be in use by Windows so that they can easily be deleted.
