Spyware help!!??? PLEASE!!!

[mip1225]

Hi me again!!

update: the one you both suggested has run a full scan and deleted loads as you can imagine i had to reboot a few times too.

System is running a lot smoother. now thank god!!!

can someone explain this malwarebytes detected loads and obviously removed loads.... (these are all on full scans by the way, paretologic scanned after malwarebytes and detected 2 and removed 2, i've just run max spyware detector its just found 9 things infecting 132 items... where does it stop???
which one is legit?

@ GoNz0 no i could not get onto the combofix before as it kept routing me elsewhere and/or page load error.... i've just uploaded the website and its stopzilla, so have already downloaded it and am running a check via that too

thanks for help i was very close to panicking

[GoNz0]

yeh good job you asked for help m8, lots format when this happens as its an easy out, but a hell of a lot of work to get the pc reinstalled again

glad you didnt hose the system with hijack this LOL

if theres anything you still cant get, like the combofix i will upload it to the works ftp for you, sounds like your nearly there now.

worth buying an OEM licence of kaspersky internet security as thats good at stopping stuff like that getting on the pc in the 1st place

[mip1225]

Thank you for the help..... and yes am very glad asked for help i must confess formatting did cross my mind!!!

do you think i should still run the combofix... as i've managed to download it but not yet run it, also the hijackthis... whats the difference between the 2 i guess i shouldn't run both??

is it normal for one spyware detector to pick up stuff and not for another?

thanks for all your help!

[kalniel]

Yes quite common for different softwares to find different things.

Hijack this isn't a spyware removal tool perse, it's just a very detailed way of looking what's really running on your computer.

[mip1225]

hi again.... if i post my hijack this log is someone able to tell me if i still have any spy/malware etc...

please, pretty please!

thanks

[GoNz0]

run combofix from safe mode, then post us another hijack this log to pick through.

[mip1225]

Hi is there any other way as Combofix requires windows disc... have recently moved and am unable to locate it at mo??

thanks

[GoNz0]

dont bother with the recovery console, just boot into safe mode, it should still work ok with that.

[mip1225]

so they're separate not an all in one thing....

[mip1225]

the reason why is because 2 spyware detectors are still telling about 'darksma' and others??

thanks

i would run the scanners you have in safe mode, and download a free trial of kaspersky internet security while your at it !

[mip1225]

does it still look problematic,

as a couple of the scanners says its clean... but the ones with free trial but you have to pay for removal facility detects loads (how convenient!)

thanks

[GoNz0]

without googling every entry it does look ok, if they want you to pay to remove then uninstall them

i would still go with the kaspersky trial as its free for 1 month and fully working.

[mip1225]

Well thank you all for your help especially GoNz0 as you've replied to me a lot

have gotten rid of i hope all of it but if not most of it! i left them running one after the other in safe mode last night.

and this morning i dealt with what needed dealing with and run again with kaspersky and its only faound a file fault with a plug in i think on a flash player... so nothing major.... definitely panic over ....phew! half tempted to run the trial ones again to see if darksma is found! glutton for punishment!

Huge Thanks

[GoNz0]

if malwarebites (sp?) spybot and adaware along with kaspersky all report ok i wouldnt worry about it any more

[mip1225]

Goo enough for me!!! HUUUUUUUGE Thanks!!
