  11. Hi, I don't use Roxio and I don't find a way on how to disable it aside from just uninstalling it. Perhaps posting regarding this in PC Help sub-forum would provide more answers. Let's do a little clean up before you go. Delete the following: DDS GMER Systemlook MBRCheck All the logs we've created. You can keep Malwarebytes, it is an excellent malware removal tool. Update atleast once a week then run a complete scan. --Next-- The following will implement some cleanup procedures as well as reset System Restore points: Click Start > Run and copy/paste the following bolded text into the Run box and click OK: ComboFix /Uninstall --Next-- Open CA and remove every exception rules you applied to Combofix as there are infections out there that masks as CF and it is highly inadvisable to run Combofix without proper supervision. --Next-- To keep your operating system up to date visit Secunia Software inspector to check your program update status. Microsoft Windows Update . Here are some tips to reduce the potential for spyware infection in the future: 1. It is good security practice to change your passwords to all your online accounts on a fairly regular basis, this is especially true after an infection. Refer to this Microsoft article Strong passwords: How to create and use them Then consider a password keeper, to keep all your passwords safe. 2. Make your Internet Explorer More Secure From within Internet Explorer click on the Tools menu and then click on Options. Click once on the Security tab. Click once on the Internet icon so it becomes highlighted. Click once on the Custom Level button. Change the Download signed ActiveX controls to Prompt. Change the Download unsigned ActiveX controls to Disable. Change the Initialise and script ActiveX controls not marked as safe to Disable. Change the Installation of desktop items to Prompt. Change the Launching programs and files in an IFRAME to Prompt. Change the Navigate sub-frames across different domains to Prompt. When all these settings have been made, click on the OK button. If it prompts you as to whether or not you want to save the settings, press the Yes button. [*]Next press the Apply button and then the OK to exit the Internet Properties page. 3. Update your Anti-Virus Software - I can not overemphasize the need for you to update your Anti-virus application on a regular basis. With the ever increasing number of new variants of malware arriving on the scene daily, you become very susceptible to an attack without updated protection. 4. Make sure you keep your Windows OS current by visiting Windows update regularly to download and install any critical updates and service packs. Without these you are leaving the back door open. 5. Consider a custom hosts file such as MVPS HOSTS. This custom hosts file effectively blocks a wide range of unwanted ads, banners, 3rd party Cookies, 3rd party page counters, web bugs, and many hijackers. For information on how to download and install, please read this tutorial by WinHelp2002 Note: Be sure to follow the instructions to disable the DNS Client service before installing a custom hosts file. 6. Download and install the free version of WinPatrol. This program protects your computer in a variety of ways and will work well with your existing security software. Have a look at this tutorial to help you get started with the program. 7. SpywareBlaster - Download and install SpywareBlaster. This program prevents the installation of ActiveX-based spyware and other potentially unwanted programs. 8. Protect your computer from internet threats with SandboxIE. This program isolates Internet Explorer from the rest of your operating system, 'sandboxing' it away - so malicious websites can't do damage to the rest of your system. There is a Getting Started guide on their website. 9. Some excellent free firewalls. Note: Use only one firewall at a time. Agnitum Outpost Firewall Online Armor Personal Firewall 10. And finally, please read these excellent articles: Limited User Accounts Malware: Help prevent the Infection by Sandi Hardmeier Preventing Malware - Tools and Practices for Safe Computing We will keep this thread open for a couple of days. Please post back if you have any problems or questions or when you have finished so this thread can be marked as "Resolved". Good luck, happy computing and stay clean!
  12. Hi, It seems that those are located in your registry that hasn't been shown in the previous logs. You may empty your quarantined files if you wish. Yes, install chrome and see how it goes. If everything is good then let's do some clean up.
  13. Hi, Am not seeing any malware on your log but what your CA quarantined is a rogue AV. Can you post the last scan log you did? Open View On-demand scanner log then press Ctrl+C at the same time to copy the log then post it here. Thanks.
  14. Hi, One of those infections found by Kaspersky is already quarantined, hence, it no longer posses a threat and the other one is in your system restore. We will be clearing both when we're through checking for other infections. Roxio's system rollback data has been infected and so is your AIM's address book. We'll both be removing them. You are no longer using Norton? Do the following to clean up those services left by Norton: Please download the Norton_Removal_Tool from HERE Save it to your desktop Double-click Norton_Removal_Tool.exe and the removal tool will start automatically. Note: Windows Vista users must right-click and select Run as Administrator. Once the removal tool is finished, you will be prompted to restart your computer. If you choose to restart later, your McAfee product will not be fully removed until you do. Wait for the computer to restart. --Next-- Please do the following: -------------------------------------------------------------------- IMPORTANT - Disable your AntiVirus and AntiSpyware applications, usually via a right click on the System Tray icon. They may otherwise interfere with our tools.
