QUOTE (dan12 @ Mar 31 2009, 05:56 PM)

IMPORTANT I notice there are signs of one or more
P2P (Peer to Peer) File Sharing Programs on your computer.
AzureusI'd like you to read the
MRU policy for P2P Programs.
Please go to
Control Panel > Add/Remove Programs and uninstall the programs listed above (in red).
------------------
Optional FixI see that
Viewpoint is installed. Viewpoint, Viewpoint Manager, Viewpoint Media Player are Viewpoint components which are installed as a side effect of installing other software, most notably AOL and AOL Instant Messenger (AIM). Viewpoint Manager is responsible for managing and updating Viewpoint Media Player’s components. You can disable this using the Viewpoint Manager Control Panel found in the Windows Control Panel menu. By selecting
Disable auto-updating for the Viewpoint Manager -- the player will no longer attempt to check for updates. Anything that is installed without your consent is suspect. Read what Viewpoint says and make your own decision.
Viewpoint Manager is considered as
foistware instead of malware since it is installed without user's approval but doesn't spy or do anything bad. This may change,read
Viewpoint to Plunge Into Adware.
I recommend that you remove the Viewpoint products; however, decide for yourself.
To uninstall the
the Viewpoint components :
- Click Start, point to Settings, and then click Control Panel.
- In Control Panel, double-click Add or Remove Programs.
- In Add or Remove Programs, highlight Viewpoint Manager
Viewpoint Media Player, click Remove.
How to prevent it from being recreated every time you run the AOL software: - Open AOL
- Go to Help on the toolbar
- Select About AOL
- Hit Ctrl D and a secret panel can be accessed which will allow you to disable all desktop and IM features associated with Viewpoint.
-----------------------------
Please go into the Control Panel, Add/Remove and for now remove
ALL versions of
JAVAThen run this tool to help cleanup any left over Java
Your Java is out of date. Older versions have vulnerabilities that malware can use to infect your system.Please download
JavaRa and unzip it to your desktop.
***Please close any instances of Internet Explorer (or other web browser) before continuing!***- Double-click on JavaRa.exe to start the program.
- From the drop-down menu, choose English and click on Select.
- JavaRa will open; click on Remove Older Versions to remove the older versions of Java installed on your computer.
- Click Yes when prompted. When JavaRa is done, a notice will appear that a logfile has been produced. Click OK.
- A logfile will pop up. Please save it to a convenient location and post it back when you reply
Then look for the following Java folders and if found delete them.
C:\Program Files\Java
C:\Program Files\Common Files\Java
C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\Java
C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\Sun\Java
C:\Documents and Settings\username\Application Data\Java

Download and Update Java RuntimeThe most current version of Sun Java is:
Java Runtime Environment (JRE) 6 Update 13.

Download and run CombofixThis tool is not a toy and not for everyday use.
ComboFix SHOULD NOT be used unless requested by a forum helperPlease download ComboFix from one of these locations:
Link 1Link 2Link 3* IMPORTANT !!! Save ComboFix.exe to your Desktop- Disable your AntiVirus and AntiSpyware applications, usually via a right click on the System Tray icon. They may otherwise interfere with our tools
- Double click on ComboFix.exe & follow the prompts.
- As part of it's process, ComboFix will check to see if the Microsoft Windows Recovery Console is installed. With malware infections being as they are today, it's strongly recommended to have this pre-installed on your machine before doing any malware removal. It will allow you to boot up into a special recovery/repair mode that will allow us to more easily help you should your computer have a problem after an attempted removal of malware.
- Follow the prompts to allow ComboFix to download and install the Microsoft Windows Recovery Console, and when prompted, agree to the End-User License Agreement to install the Microsoft Windows Recovery Console.
**Please note: If the Microsoft Windows Recovery Console is already installed, ComboFix will continue it's malware removal procedures.
Once the Microsoft Windows Recovery Console is installed using ComboFix, you should see the following message:

Click on Yes, to continue scanning for malware.
When finished, it will produce a log for you. Please include the
C:\ComboFix.txt in your next reply along with a fresh HijackThis log.
