Remnants of attack

Archived from groups: microsoft.public.windowsme.general (More info?)

Got hit bad: viruses, trojans, malware, hijack, you name it...after my
grandson "used" the machine... I had no choice but try to "fix" it!!!

Disconnected from the SP and did a System Restore to the day before
and ran the following first in safe mode, Why? dont know. Ad=Aware SE: had
1 running process, 1 process in reg., and several lesser "things": all
removed.
Ran Spyboot S&D: all ok
Ran Stinger: an hour and 161,476 files later: nothing.
Ran HiJackThis: <g> got a big log (well not that big) and kept it.
Did a complete thorough Virus Scan.

Anything else I could do to improve the speed a little bit, a little bit;
it is slower than "before". also are these files now quarantined genuine WIN
Me= lmgliz.txt, vqzcla.dat.
Also (hate to ask because of the previous question about the Clipboard
Viewer), but the Recycle Bin icon shows full and theres nothing in it, even
if I try to dump something, cant find anything ressembling it in a search.
As always tks in advance.

Paul, regarding the recycle bin ONLY. I seem to remember an issue with the
'wrong icon' being set (can't remember why) which always showed the bin as
full.

I'm using XP here so can't test it. Check the icon 'Properties' (in both
states - empty and full) and see if you need to change one of the icons -
both icons *should* be available in the Change Icon option. To check, drop
something into the recycle bin and see if the icon changes (toggles) with
the 'replaced' icons

If this is not the cause in your case, then sorry if I've posted a red
herring.

Might also be worth looking at the MS Knowledge Base for Recycle Bin issues,
there are several and one might just be yours <g>

Good luck

Mart

Hi Mart
Tks for response, like I said in my follow-up post, it came back.
However I would be more interested in the slowish aspect left after
the attack.
Can anyone take a look at my HJT log?? There might be something that an
expert can readily recognised....Tks for your coop.

Take a look at the information here. Scroll down to SpyKiller. If you have
it installed, you really should uninstall it.
http://www.spywarewarrior.com/rogue_anti-spyware.htm
This is a list of all the rouge and suspect spyware programs.

and here:

you may need this to completely uninstall it

Tks for your response. The KillBox from www.thespykiller.co.uk was
recommanded by the Tech Guys Forum and used apparently quite often after
analysing the logs of Spybot S&D. Dont see this particular program in the
list??? I'm I missing something?

I *think* this is a case of mistaken identity on Jan's part.

AFAIK, thespykiller.co.uk is not related to spykiller.com (the source of the
'iffy' spyware program)

- see also the bottom of their home page....

remove any spyware that is found on the computer and they always find
something, whether genuine or not.

Hi Noel

Possibly the best site on the internet (or at least in the top 3 or 4) for
assistance with spyware problems is aumha.org -
first read the instructions.....
http://forum.aumha.org/viewtopic.php?t=4075&sid=68aebdd0d27755c6e70611e140de993b

follow them!! - then post your log to the forum.

I know personally many of the participants, and respect their abilities
(well, let's be blunt here - I bow down before them!!) - and their concern
for the user's systems is second to none. If they say you need to reformat,
then that's the only fix that will work! If they say you're clean, then
chances are that you really *are* squeaking<g>
