Browser Hijack

[Cidas]

It is me again. I have another problem. For some reason I keep getting this website as my home site when I get onto internet explorer.

res://lzuax.dll/index.html#96676

That is the website. I had ran ad-aware many times, and it appears that each time I come onto internet explorer, I get attacked with the same type of ad programs.

While this is a problem, I am able to operate America Online as a relief so I am still connected. I hope that someone will be willing to help me.

Oh, and, if you want me to list the several programs that I have gotten on ad-aware I have them. I also ran a search on spybot: Search and Destroy.

I am not sure if I need CW shredder or whatnot, but I think I have kind of diagnosed the problem. I also remember that to see some problems you can go to safe mode to acess certain things, as I remebmer being walked through it.

Thanks for any help or advice.

[SuperSparks]

I've put this into it's own thread as it's a completely different problem this time.

[Cidas]

Thanks. I am still looking for help.

Did you update Ad-aware before you ran it? What version on Spybot do you have? It should be 1.3. If not, download 1.3, update it and run the scan. After you have updated and run ad-ware/Spybot, download HijackThis into its own folder (not a temporary folder) and post your log.

[Cidas]

Sorry for the wait. Been realy busy and had been using another computer for the time being.

Download and updateAboutbuster and unzip it to a folder on your desktop.

Dont run it yet

Now look in Add/Remove Programs (Control Panel) and have a look for Delfin Media Viewer uninstall it if it there.

Now run HijackThis then tick and fix the below entries:

Now boot into safe mode

In safe mode run About buster and let it fix what it finds.

Still in safe mode, run a full Adaware scan.

Reboot into normal mode and post a new HijackThis log.

[Cidas]

There was no program when I did the ad or remove thing.

Other than that it seems to be running fine with no more of that hompage setting or anything like that.

EDIT: The homepage keeps resetting itself to res://oekos.dll/index.html#96676

Also, I am still getting advertisments. In the past it has been apparent that I never got advertisments, so I belive something is still wrong.

I do not think that what I have done solved the hijack. It still makes it my own homepage, and I get advertisments.

Download Newuninst.exe. Run it and make sure you have an active internet connection. Reboot and run the tool once again (again with an active internet connection).

Download PeperFix.exe, start it and click Find and Fix. Reboot. Run the tool a second time to make certain it's done its job. Reboot when finished.

Hi. First of all you need to update hijackthis to version 1.98.2. Run hijackthis & go to *Config\Misc Tools\Check for update on-line*. If the site is down, go here. Remove the old version by deleting the file manually. Unzip the new version into the hijackthis folder.

Close all (browser) windows & rescan with hijackthis. When the scan is finished place a check in the box to the left of the following entries & click 'fix checked':

Download About:buster from http://malwarebytes.biz/AboutBuster.zip and unzip it to your desktop.

Download & instal Adaware from here
& update it before scanning.
In settings under 'scanning,' have it set to
'scan within archives,'
'scan active processes,'
'scan registry,'
'deepscan registry'
'scan my IE Favourites for banned URL's,'
'scan my host's file.'
In 'tweaks' under 'scanning engine' set it to 'unload recognised processes during scanning.'
Also in 'tweaks' under 'cleaning engine' set it to 'Automatically try to unregister objects prior to deletion' & 'let Windows remove files in use at next reboot.'

Click here for instructions on how to boot into safe mode.

Boot up in safe mode.

Run About:buster, click OK, Start, and OK again to start the scan. Let it scan and fix everything it finds.

Still in safe mode, do a full system scan with Adaware. When the scan is finished select *next* & place a check in the boxes to the left of what is found & click *next* again. Let it delete those entries.

Reboot your computer in normal mode.
