Unable to remove 1click-downloader


Recommended Posts

Welcome to the forum.

Before we proceed further, please uninstall or disable uTorrent and any other peer-to-peer filesharing app.

Continued use of filesharing or ill-advised downloads will surely re-infect your system.

P2P file sharing: Know the risks

It's also against the forums policy concerning P2P programs:

Please download AdwCleaner from here and save it on your Desktop.

  1. Right-click on adwcleaner.exe and select Run As Administrator to launch the application.
  2. Now click on the Search tab.
  3. Please post the contents of the log-file created in your next post.

Note: The log can also be located at C:\ >> AdwCleaner[XX].txt >> XX <-- Denotes the number of times the application has been ran, so in this should be something like R1.

  1. Please re-run AdwCleaner
  2. Click on Delete button.
  3. Confirm each time with OK if asked.
  4. Your computer will be rebooted automatically. A text file will open after the restart. Please post the content of that logfile in your reply.

Note: You can find the logfile at C:\AdwCleaner[sn].txt as well - n is the order number.

It's usually caused by an add-on > what browsers are affected?

Please download OTL from one of the links below:

http://oldtimer.geekstogo.com/OTL.exe

http://www.itxassoci...T-Tools/OTL.exe

http://oldtimer.geekstogo.com/OTL.com (<---renamed version)

Save it to your desktop.

Double click on the icon on your desktop.

Click the Scan All Users checkbox.

Push the Quick Scan button.

The scan will take about 10 minutes...depends on your hard drive size.

Two reports will open, copy and paste them in a reply here: (or attach them as .txt files)

OTL.txt <-- Will be opened

Extra.txt <-- Will be minimized

OK, lets do some checking in Chrome:

First please make sure you have the latest version of Chrome:

Click the wrench in the upper right hand corner

Click on "About Google Chrome"

If an update is available it will be downloaded and installed

Next:

Carefully check for any odd extensions or plugins: (it's a good idea to disable them all and see if you're still redirected and then add each one back until you find the culprit)

Type the following into the address box and hit Enter:

chrome:plugins

Do the same for:

chrome:extensions

Next:

Go to Settings > Show advanced settings........ (at the bottom)

Put a check next to all of these:

  1. Clear browsing history
  2. Clear download history
  3. Empty the cache

Click "Clear Browsing Data"

Next:

Look through the rest of Tools, Settings and View Backround Pages and make sure there's nothing suspicious.

---------------------------

Then look at this link (it's for a different infection but the way to change Chromes settings is the same)

http://deletemalware...tall-guide.html

---------------------------

If you don't see anything, disable all extensions and plug-ins and see how it is.

Let me know, MrC

Please download and run ComboFix.

The most important things to remember when running it is to disable all your malware programs and run Combofix from your desktop.

Please visit this webpage for download links, and instructions for running ComboFix

http://www.bleepingc...to-use-combofix

Ensure you have disabled all anti virus and anti malware programs so they do not interfere with the running of ComboFix.

Information on disabling your malware programs can be found Here.

Make sure you run ComboFix from your desktop.

Give it at least 30-45 minutes to finish if needed.

Please include the C:\ComboFix.txt in your next reply for further review.

---------->NOTE<----------

If you get the message Illegal operation attempted on registry key that has been marked for deletion after you run ComboFix....please reboot the computer, this should resolve the problem. You may have to do this several times if needed.

Using ComboFix......

1. Close any open browsers.

2. Close/disable all anti virus and anti malware programs so they do not interfere with the running of ComboFix.

3. Open notepad and copy/paste the text in the quotebox below into it:

4. If ComboFix wants to update.....please allow it to.

Folder::

c:\program files (x86)\1ClickDownload

ClearJavaCache::

Save this as CFScript.txt, in the same location as ComboFix.exe

CFScript.gif

Refering to the picture above, drag CFScript into ComboFix.exe

CAUTION: Do not mouse-click ComboFix while it is running. It may cause it to stall.

After reboot, (in case it asks to reboot)......

Please provide the contents of the ComboFix log (C:\ComboFix.txt) in your next reply.

Let me know......MrC

Well in your last log from ComboFix it showed the 1ClickDownload folder.

So I used ComboFix to delete it:

c:\program files (x86)\1ClickDownload

c:\program files (x86)\1ClickDownload\1clextsetup.exe

c:\program files (x86)\1ClickDownload\1ClickDownloader.exe

c:\program files (x86)\1ClickDownload\1ClickSettingsManager2703.exe

c:\program files (x86)\1ClickDownload\ocmainpack.exe

c:\program files (x86)\1ClickDownload\oneclickdownloader11.crx

Is there any difference?? MrC

Lets check your computers security before you go and we have a little cleanup to do also:

Download Security Check by screen317 from HERE or HERE.

  • Save it to your Desktop.
  • Double click SecurityCheck.exe and follow the onscreen instructions inside of the black box.
  • A Notepad document should open automatically called checkup.txt; please post the contents of that document.
