I know the more information the better, but can someone tell me if this log from HijackThis notes anything I need to worry about?

Hi, Welcome to TSG!!

You need to go here and install "Service Pack 1" This will patch numerous security holes in IE and Windows. As your machine stands now it is wide open to attack from all sorts of nasties. You need to get these updates before we proceed or we will be wasting our time.

DO NOT install Service pack 2 yet. If you install SP 2 on an infected machine it will cause serious problems. Just get Service Pack 1 installed. After you get SP1 installed, restart your computer. Come back here and post the new Hijack This log.

Thank you for your reply.

I tried to get the Windows Service Pack, but apparently the windows on this computer is not "genuine", so it won't download. I'll have to contact the computer's owner and see what I can do about it.

Thanks again for your help.

Until I can re-install windows, I decided to scan the system with a more updated scanner. AVG caught some major problems, and I saved the report, which I've posted below. Does this mean that AVG has removed the harmful files? Is there anything more I can do to protect my computer?

Thanks.

Most of that was tracking cookies in system restore.

Run HijackThis and click Open the Misc Tools section
Click Open Uninstall Manager, Save list and save the log to your Desktop.
A list of programs will open in Notepad. Post the contents of the log here in your next reply.

I don't see anything there to remove.

How are things going now?

I run AVG pretty much daily now, and it always seems to find at least one High Risk item (usually Logger.BZub.hg), and multiple Medium Risk items. Can I come to expect that to happen without proper Windows protection, or is there just something that AVG is not removing? I ran a scan just before writing here and it found a Logger.BZub.hg. When I applied all actions, it did not give me the chance to save the report - instead I was asked to reboot to ensure the threat was removed. I scanned the system after the reboot, and no High Risk items were found.

Also, when I try to update AVG with it's internal update, it says it cannot connect. How can I fix it so that it will?

Lastly, what are the "Windows XP Hotfix" programs listed in the last post?

I really appreciate all your help. Thanks again :)

Below are the last couple scan reports (except the one that asked me to reboot).

Flush your 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 the computer.

To create a new restore point:
  • Start go to All Programs
  • Accessories, System Tools and select System Restore.
  • In the System Restore wizard, select "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.

I turned off the system restore, and when I went to turn it on, there was no wizard or option for "create retore point". It opened the same window as did mycomputer/properties.

Not sure how to go forward.

I found the wizard, and created the new retore point. Also, the last couple of AVG scans have found Medium Risks, but have not found any High Risk items :)

Should this have helped me to be able to connect the AVG update? And I just want to be sure that "Windows XP Hotfix" programs are not something I should remove.

I'm very grateful that this site is available for this kind of help. You've been great.

I would need to see what AVG is finding before I could comment. If they are cookies it's not terrible.

Don't remove the hotfixes they take up space but are harmless.

I'm happy you got the system restore working! (y)


You're welcome, my pleasure!
