Solved: Movieland harassment

Hi

I've been ignoring these payment notices for some weeks (apparently one of my sons browsed the site), but now my ctrl-alt-delete is disabled and I'm pissed. I've included a log from hijackit below. Since I wasn't sure the instructions would be the same, I didn't try following what was suggested on other posts. Your help would be most appreciated.

Thanks

Peter

Hi

Thanks for the feedback and sorry for the delay in responding, between Christmas activities and the many scans I had to perform it took a while.

I encountered some interesting problems running ewido:
* in safe mode after double clicking on the ewido icon, it took 1 minute to bring up the window and nearly 4 minutes before it would respond. It seemed to be using only 1% of CPU.
* I encountered "many" files to remove and would click ahead when prompted to remove. This would cause ewido to crash. Quickly started to use the checkbox that has ewido fix infections automatically.

My most interesting discovery is that ewido discovered a folder that I could not see from the windows file browser:

C:\Documents and Settings\Peter\Complete\

that had over 6000 500kb .zip files. I interrupted the first scan after a couple of hundred and hand clicked through the confiirm box to delete during the cleaning process (they were archice files, no nice checkbox to do it automatically this time ). I interrupted the second scan when I realized that there were thousands of them, and deleted them all, accessing the folder through the DOS prompt. The next morning there were 300 new files there ! (I'm quite sure the folder was empty the night before).

after deleting them again, I tried a third scan. It would seem that I have a process running that is downloading them ????

THe results of the 3 scans (with the 6000+ lines for the zip files deleted) are in the attached zip file, as well as a new hijackit file.

Any suggestions on how best to proceed would be appreciated.

Thanks !

Peter

Boot into Safe Mode.

Find and delete these folders:

C:\Program Files\MyWaySA
C:\Program Files\winupdates
C:\Program Files\MsMovies

Also in Safe Mode navigate to the C:\Windows\Temp folder.
Open the Temp folder and go to Edit > Select All then Edit > Delete to delete the entire contents of the Temp folder.

Go to Start > Run and type %temp% in the Run box.
The Temp folder will open. Click Edit > Select All then Edit > Delete to delete the entire contents of the Temp folder.

It's normal if some files don't delete!

Finally go to Control Panel > Internet Options.
On the General tab under "Temporary Internet Files" Click "Delete Files".
Put a check by "Delete Offline Content" and click OK.
Click on the Programs tab then click the "Reset Web Settings" button.
Click Apply then OK.

Empty the Recycle Bin.

Reboot, post a new log.

 

Hi

thank you both for your help. I've followed your instructions and included a new log below.

I obviously need to do more than run adaware, spybot and have Mcafee for viruses to take care of my computer. I'm sure a common question must be " What should I be doing to keep my computer in good order ?". I browsed through the forums a bit but did not find a post on this. Could you point me to one.

I think that one of the things done in the cleanup was to disable automatic window updates. If this is the case, how do I know when to update windows ?

thanks again for your help, I really appreciate it ( ... donation forthcoming ).

cheers

Peter

Log looks good

Read here on how to tighten your computer's security settings:
http://forums.techguy.org/t208517.html

Now turn off System Restore:

On the Desktop, right-click My Computer.
Click Properties.
Click the System Restore tab.
Check Turn off System Restore.
Click Apply, and then click OK.

Restart your computer, turn System Restore back on and create a restore point.

To create a restore point:

Single-click Start and point to All Programs.
Mouse over Accessories, then System Tools, and select System Restore.
In the System Restore wizard, select the box next the text labeled "Create a restore point" and click the Next button.
Type a description for your new restore point. Something like "After trojan/spyware cleanup". Click Create and you're done.

You can choose to be alerted for updates in the Windows Security Center.
You will find them under the Security Center in the Control Panel.
On the left-hand side, you will see five options.
Click on the last one Change the way security center alerts me and you will find three choices there.

You can mark your thread "Solved" from the Thread Tools drop down menu.

 

Better late than never I guess ... everything worked fine, your help was much appreciated.

thanks again
