[Resolved] lost programs

New Dell PC. New ISP logged on to outlook express and yahoo. Somehow in the process my internet explorer has vanished. How do I get it back. I downloaded a PC doctor who gave me the following errors. Missing files c:\Windows\System32\hlinkprx.dll; Invalid Active X\com file; invalid active x\com Subsection file; invalid application path; invalid microsoft shared file; invalid uninstall information. Can you help me. I'm not pc literate.

 

I've hijacked the file but I'm unsucessful at highlighting and printing it to send to you. I've tried the usual method but it will not allow me to copy and paste. I've tried the ctrl-v/paste and ctrl/copy. I need help

Sorry I missed Eddie's PM on this and I'm a day late with the reply.

There are really a lot of problems in that scanlog. I'm not sure what you mean by "Internet Explorer has dissappeared". Do you mean it never opens or you just cannot browse with it?

A shortcut workaround that will not "clean" the system, but may make things operable, is to run System Restore.

First save HijackThis to a special folder in My Documents where it will not be affected.

Then to launch System Restore, go to Start > Run, enter msconfig and then select "launch System Restore". Select a date on which you had no serious issues.

After doing that, please post a new HijackThis Scanlog and we will begin the actual cleanup operation.

I'm going to move this to Security for follow-ups.

 

You recieved a call for help about a new Dell pc that somehow had lost the IE. That person is my sister but she has given up so for now the pc is at my house for me to try to follow your directions. That person meant to write Patricia Adams but in her excitement she wrote Parricia Ada. I'm laydy and I'm trying to help. That post was on Apr.18,2004. I finally figured out how to post the hi-jacked file to the post. I went back to the first restore point but it would not restore so I didn't bother sending another hi-jack file. Please send any and all help to [email protected]

 

I can't help by e-mail; you might try System Restore again, choosing a different early restore point, and running it from Safe Mode instead:

http://service1.symantec.com/SUPPORT/tsgeninfo.nsf/docid/2001052409420406

But you can also try this first:

Go to Add/Remove programs and remove:

new.net

and reboot.

Then run HijackThis and check the following entries, close the browser, and select "fix checked":

>> reboot

>> if possible install, UPDATE, and run either Spybot or Ad-aware:

Spybot Instructions and Download
Ad-Aware Home Page and Ad-Aware 6: Reference Guide by Winchester73

How Did I Get Infected?
>> Reboot and post a new Scanlog and give details on any remaining problems

Note: if you use System Restore successfuly AFTER doing this, it will nullify what was done, so if you want to try System Restore again, try it first if possible

 

When you say"check the following entries" do you mean the ones that have a number in front of them are the ones I'm suppose to check or do you mean find 4 or 8 etc. and check them. the very last one I cannot find.

 

When you select "Scan" in HijackThis you will see those and other entries in the Scanlog. Just put checks in the specific ones I've indicated, then close the browser, and select "fix checked" in the HijackThis Scan window.

Post another scanlog after rebooting and we will see if they have been removed properly.

 

I hope I didn't mess things up because I did the hijack thing before I saw Etaf's suggestion. I have been on her pc since 9 this am and it keeps cutting off on me. I could not install an update and I didn't run the Sypbot or the Ad-aware. As soon as I got most of the things checked and said to fix checked, it went out on me again. Should I still send the log? I'm running from pc to pc so I might be finished shortly. I broke both of my legs and their geiving me fits right now.

I see why my sister is sooooo frustrated. Wouldn't it be just as simple to take the pc back to the way she got it when it was shipped to her an start from scratch?

 

It won't do any good to take a system back, even if under warranty, unless there is a hardware problem. At the present time this appears to be a software issue.

There are still problems with the Scanlog. Did new.net remove without error from Add/Remove programs?

In any case it still shows an entry in the Scanlog. Now you DO need to use the lspfix program etaf pointed you to. Just run it and have it do its default fix. That should take care of this item:

O10 - Broken Internet access because of LSP provider 'c:\program files\newdotnet\newdotnet6_22.dll' missing

... which you do NOT want to remove using HijackThis.

However these items SHOULD be checked and fixed again. Close the browser after checking them, then click Fix Checked. Reboot the computer after that and ensure the bolded files and folders get sent to the recycle bin.

^^ this is not a legitimate program in my opinion and is reported to produce pop-up ads.

Question: Are you getting cut-off when using both IE and Netscape? And is this simply an issue of getting disconnected? If so, the problem may be with your ISP and they should be contacted. You may also have a problem with the phone line if you are using dial-up. You can ask the phone company to check the line if the problem persists.

Is Internet Explore still missing in action? What exactly do you mean it has "disappeared"? Do you have the folder:

C:\Program File\Internet Explorer? And if so, do you see the file IExplore.exe there? That is Internet Explorer. You can make a shortcut to that if that if necessary. Just right click on it and send it to the desktop as a shortcut.
