More Internet virus'

**Raydee** · June 25th, 2004, 07:02 PM

Well I was searching the web today and up pops my Virus detection telling me I got a Trojan horse virus! AGAIN! This time I got a new toolbar and search engine with 500000 popups. I am running a scan now but how can I get my internet back the way it was?

**SuperSparks** · June 25th, 2004, 07:13 PM

Run these two removal programs first, after updating the definitions:

Spybot S & D

Adaware

Then unzip this one into its own folder, run it and post the logfile here:

Hijack This

End this process, it is a virus, and you may have got it from using Kazaa.
DirectXset.exe

Remove these.

Reboot and delete C:\WINDOWS\System32\DirectXset.exe.
Go to these links and do a scan.

Use 'scan without subscribing click here'.

**Raydee** · June 25th, 2004, 09:07 PM

Ok this may sound stupid but how do I delete these?

**fubar** · June 25th, 2004, 10:00 PM

When you run the scan all the items have check boxes so that you can check the ones you want to delete. Then you just click the Fix button and follow the prompts.

**Raydee** · June 25th, 2004, 10:15 PM

All is well, thanks guys

But.... are you sure the DirectXset.exe is a virus. I think i remember someone a while back saying it was a driver or something needed for my Microsoft game pad.

**markp62** · June 25th, 2004, 11:15 PM

That is a sound alike name, meant to fool people into thinking it is a real Microsoft file. The way to be sure is use those online scans, they are free. But first at least rename it.
Look at these links.

I definitely think it is a virus.

**Raydee** · June 25th, 2004, 11:32 PM

Thanks for the info, I will look into it!

**Raydee** · July 4th, 2004, 11:11 AM

Guys I have no search anymore. I used to be able to just type in the toolbar and it would automatically search but now it doesn't. Take a look at my log file. Take a look at R3, is there any way to get my auto search back?

When you open HJT, click on Config button. Make sure these are there, for the search replacements.

Delete these in HJT, and those above should be inserted.
