Well it's become non-cost effective to continue battling this one. I've decided to format and reinstall. Thanks for the help though.

Captain tycho: Please update to version 1.99 and resubmit after cleaning the following:

Nothing too malicious on your system except for system.exe, which is part of a worm. Run a full scan with an up-to-date antivirus program after killing the entry to eliminate any other wormy bits. The remaining entries in the above list are spyware pieces, but relatively benign compared to, say, what jcow79 was fighting.

WeatherBug was a vector for drive-by Gator/Claria installations a year or two ago; I'm not sure if it can be trusted to behave itself now. Most of what I've read on it indicates that AWS has given up that practice, but if you don't feel like taking the risk of keeping it around, uninstall it and find an alternative. ForecastFox for Firefox works relatively well.

Ah, where's Ein when you need him? Anyway, I'll tackle these in order.

Darth Garden Gnome: I don't see anything overtly bad in your log that might be spawning popups, so if it's acting infested, it's probably via a DLL hooked into Explorer. Those are especially hard to remove, and you'll have to hope one of the automated tools will get it.

Darth Mall: You're clean of any obvious signs of spyware, and I see no worm or virus fragments in the log.

observer_20000: Looks pretty clean. Doesn't appear to be any sort of spyware on your system that HJT! can see, based on the log.

It is with a sad feeling of betrayal I must say that one of the forerunners in the fight against scumware has fallen.

Lavasoft makers of Adaware has betrayed the trust in their flaggship application.

That happened to my mom's Dell shorty after I reformatted it. It's a nasty, hard to kill bitch. I eventually just ended up reformatting again when I realized I couldn't beat it.

I just beat it. For future reference folks, if you have the abocve described motherfucker, send me a PM I'll help you kill it. Or better yet, here's a link to how to kill it yourself:

Unfortunately, my PC is still infested with crap that just won't go away. Annoying casino popups and shit from IE- even when I'm not using IE (I never use IE- fuck I only used it once and look what happened to me).

Can I post this log and can anyone identify some more malicious shit? I'd hate to have to reformat again over this, but it's really annoying:

It's shit like this that makes me wonder how a moron like Edam de Fromage believes that using Firefox is a greater risk than Internet Explorer...

Good god. How much shit has it been sticking on your computer? I'd say to reboot into Safe Mode and then re-run HJT to get rid of this stuff. Reboot into Safe Mode again and re-run one more time to make sure everything's cleared out.

C:\windows\system32\tcwiyi.exe <-- I don't know what this is. Back it up somewhere and then kill it; if problems appear, replace it.
C:\windows\msmsgnce.exe <-- Trojan/Downloader. Kill immediately.
C:\windows\nvsvwc.exe <-- Same as above. Kill immediately.
D:\spysubtract\SpySub.exe <-- If you didn't put SpySubtract on your system, remove. Otherwise ignore all SpySubtract entries.

C:\WINDOWS\System32\connmie.exe <-- Freshbar spyware
C:\WINDOWS\System32\truettf.exe <-- Freshbar spyware
C:\WINDOWS\System32\dxconf.exe <-- Freshbar spyware

Kill all of the below immediately.

I used AVG virus yesterday (I had it before the format, forgot i needed to reinstall even though I had it on D: rather than C:) and annihilated a lot of that crap- all the Trojans were destroyed. Just so we're clear, everything on that list that you put "below" is stuff that should be eliminated, right?

(I use SpySub, so that's cool).

I mean, from using IE just fucking ONCE. It's unbelievable. Thank god for firefox.

Posted: **2005-02-22 01:13am**

Uh, yeah. Sorry for highlighting SpySubtract, I didn't realize that they had bought CWShredder.

Posted: **2005-02-22 11:34am**

I've had a couple programs start acting strange, and I've already run Spybot, Ad-aware, CWS, and Norton. This is what I got off the log. Anything need to die here:

<cut.

HELP ME!

I reformatted yesterday, and used IE once to dl mozilla, AVG, and Kerio, and look what happens:
