| 756268 | 2009-04-02 10:22:00 | This is total fail. This happened to me again today, I was pressing enter heaps, then onecare popped up, then I entered through it. It came up again and said some trojan or some crap cannot be deleted, then sites stopped working. IRC and MSN would work, but no webpages in FF and IE. ?????????????? Why? EDIT: I'll do the ComboFix. |

| 756269 | 2009-04-02 10:36:00 | If its a variant of the DNSchanger trojan, it maybe similar to the prob, this guy was having (pressf1.co.nz) The last post. This variant changes the DNS ips / settings in a router. If youre on broadband / have a router, reset it. Then reconfigure it. See if that fixes it |

| 756270 | 2009-04-02 10:45:00 | Run combofix, and we'll look at this deep infection. Uninstall OneCare, and install avast....Onecare sucks:p The infection might rooted in a System Restore point, clear the points to make sure there isn't anything hidden there: 1. Click Start 2. Right click Computer > Properties > Choose Advanced System Settings option in left menu listing. 3. If UAC enabled you will get a UAC prompt at this click Continue 4. Click System Protection tab 5. Then Untick any Drive Listed and in the popup window click Turn Off System Restore 6. Click Apply > OK 7. Tick it back, then> OK Once you've done that scan with the recommended programs(Mbam, Spyware Terminator, ComboFix) Update first, and perform a FULL scan Blam |
