I just had a popup, and it seemed to want to take over my browser. It
wanted
to start downloading a file but my Norton stopped it. It is called winfixer
2005. It put an downloading process icon in my system tray that says
"WinFixer 2005 Installer" but it isnt
downloading anything,(that i can tell)

What is this and where did it come from? How do i get rid of it?...thanks
for the help...tcoop

Winfixer 2005 is a parasitic program, do not allow it to install. If it has,
use Add & Remove to get rid of it. If any signs still exist, run System
Restore to a prior date.

I looked in Add/Remove and did not see WinFixer2005. I tried to restore to
an earler date an it wouldn't restore to an earlier date.
I still have the WinFixer2005 Installer in my lower right corner. It says it
hasnt downloaded anything but i cant get it to go away. The elapsed timer is
counting off minutes but it says it hasn't downloaded anything.
Is WinFixer2005 the same has "Backdoor.Darkroom? Any more ideas on what i
can do? I thank you for your help....tcoop

Hi,

Adaware and Spybot can be used to clean up the damage.

AdawareII www.lavasoft.de
Spybot www.safer-networking.org

I do not recommend the use of any general purpose registry cleaner, as there
is no need to do this in WinXP. If you suspect registry damage due to a
malware infestation, use an appropriate, targeted solution or use the
procedure below to reinstate a registry backup.

And the files expsrv.dll, ISUSPM.EXE, ISSCH.EXE, expsrv.dll and their
containing folders, it's OK just to leave them be?

Manuel, WinFixer cannot be removed simply by having HT fix a few entries:
They'll return as soon as you reboot, possibly with different filenames.

Here's some truly helpful information:

When all else fails, HijackThis v1.99.1
(http://aumha.net/downloads/hijackthis.zip) is the preferred tool to use.
It will help you to both identify and remove any hijackware/spyware. **Post

Ignore the post by PA Bear it is of no help at all. You will waste your time
clicking on all those links, not one will tell you how to remove Winfixer.
He is a troll MVP who is hell bent on trying to discredit me and confuse
you.

I just wanted to thank everyone that helped. I haven't seen the winfixer
popup for a while or any other similar popups. It did take a lot of work
with me having to scan evertime I go online which always turns up at least
one item.
I think a part of the problem is that I have a dell and it came installed
with a My Way search program. Removing that helped but it takes some work
also. Here is a link from dell that tells you step by step how to remove it.
Thanks again.
