You also need to run all the fixes HERE exactly as instructed - then run CCleaner to remove any rubbish left behind (untick the Yahoo Toolbar install option).

Download, install and run Windows Defender, Ad-Aware, Spybot S&D and SpywareBlaster from HERE :thumb:
 
Just seen your last post about running the smitfraud fix - that would explain why certain entries have dissappeared from your HijackThis log since the first one - was wondering what was going on! :)
 
HJT is unable to remove the efcbxxw.dll references. I even tried a program called kill box and it was unable to delete the destination file. Ewido detects it as malware but is unable to clean it. Itried running everything in safe mode as an admin with no luck.

Try the program I have attached ... right-click on the ZIP file and extract it, it is only one .EXE file ... run it.

Most good ave programs will detect that particular 'Malware' I would suggest you remove your Norton and replace it with either Anti-Vir or KAV

I tried your program muck and the annoying taskbar icon is gone but I am still getting popups for

count2.exitexchange.com
winantiviruspro.com
drivecleaner.com
"Warning: Your computer may have critical errors in registry and file system!"
to name a few.

These do not happen right away and seem to randomly appear a couple of minutes after I open IE. I'll include my latest HJT log for review

Hello mycotopian,

Do as Ady said, you're his "customer" and we try to keep to one "helper" ... I only popped in with the ZIP file as it had recently been updated and should have cleaned up most of the problem.

Don't jump from one fix to another as these things need to be done in a sequence to be sure of catching the buggers off guard.

:thumb:
 
Ady something is still got me. It is not as bad as before but there is definetly something wrong.

Here is my latest HJT Log

Welcome back mycotopian :)

Can you tell me exactly what the symptoms of your problems are now please, also have you run the programs I suggested in my previous post? - as I cannot see them within your HijackThis log.

If you have run them, what problems did they identify?
 
I tried all the programs that you refered me to in both regular mode and safe mode. I am still getting Tradedoubler and Virtumode being detected and no matter what I do I cannot seem to delete this efcbxxw.dll file that is being detected by some of the programs.
 
Sorry, I probably didn't make myself clear - what I need is for you to describe exactly what symptoms you are still getting ie. pop-ups (including what they say)/browser homepage hijack etc.

When you get the detections by whatever program you used - did you attempt to delete them and find they came back when you next ran it - or was it unable to be deleted in the first place?

I have googled for efcbxxw.dll and can't find a reference anywhere so I'm a bit stumped with that to be honest.

Your HijackThis log seems clean to me, however please delete:

O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [Alcmtr] ALCMTR.EXE

O20 - AppInit_DLLs:

Also , what Anti-virus suite are you running - as I can't see one in the log anymore? - you did have Norton showing in an earlier one.
 
Right now I am only getting popups. What is weird is I am getting them when I am on the net using IE or in windows explorer looking at files. When I got the detections I did attempt to delete them but the programs were all unsuccessful. Even trying to remove the files manually doesn't work. I did review my history from the last few days and here is a list of some of the popups I am getting. I did remove norton because it did not detect anything and didn't seem to be doing much besides slowing my computer down.

[mucks edit ... removed nastie links ... PLEASE, do not post those links anyhow :(]

Sorry I didn't mean to hyperlink. Can I show the sites as text?

oh for gawds sake ... I'm trying my best to protect other members who may stupidly copy & past those 'links' into their browser ... you do not have to show me what you are experiencing and I certainly do not need to see the links ... I can browse the Internet with impunity, I use Linux. :rolleyes:

If you do not follow the correct procedure in the correct sequence then the only alternative is Clean-Install XP
