543114 2007-04-21 23:00:00 Hi, destop pc is having trouble accessing the net over IE and Firefox. Skype can work so we know the connection is ok ( network is ok as other home pc can see the other and other pc is accessing net ok) So I assume it has been infected by some evil trojan or the like, have run both AVG antivirus and AVG antispyware nothing adverse virus wise and only 3 x cookies in the antispyware, all deleted. And also I can load a page but it is so slow, for example nzherald main page would be 10 minutes, and this is over a broadband, other pc is top speed like normal,Please help, toddh (6125)
543115 2007-04-21 23:04:00 Could be something nasty, try trojan remover in my sig below.

Install / run click on scan. Then select the 3rd to 7th option under utilities.

And get hijackthis in my sig below, put it in its own folder then run it. Then click on scan and save a log. Post the log here (copy and paste it).

543116 2007-04-22 01:02:00 Here is the log file, I should add also that accessing the troubled pc via network neighbourhood is also very very slow to see the shared docs or copy files to / from it. thanks

543117 2007-04-22 01:56:00 Looks like u have spyware/malware.

Put hjt in its own folder run it then tick these entries and tick fix checked.

See if Mywebsearch is in add/remove programs, uninstall it.

O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [NeroFilterCheck] C:\WINDOWS\system32\NeroCheck.exe

O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [Ultimate Cleaner] "C:\Program Files\Ultimate Cleaner\App.exe" hide - uninstall this, this looks like rogue software.

O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [syswin] C:\DOCUME~1\Hanlon\LOCALS~1\Temp\x1006.exe - delete this file in safe mode after.

O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [lnwin.exe] C:\WINDOWS\System32\lnwin.exe - this looks like it beongs to a trojan. Delete this file in safe mode.

Then reboot.

I would also install a firewall.

And it doesnt look like you've installed any Service Packs, not a good idea.

Did trojan remover find/remove anything?
Speedy Gonzales (78)
543118 2007-04-22 02:00:00 Get Rogueremover in my sig as well.

Update it, click on scan, see if it finds/removes anything.
Speedy Gonzales (78)
543119 2007-04-22 03:23:00 Skype can work so we know the connection is ok

So I assume it has been infected by some evil trojan or the like, have run both

AVG antivirus and AVG antispyware nothing adverse
And also I can load a page but it is so slow,

You're absolutely right. The evil is called skype:

Skype ends up being a supernode helping to switch traffic . In some circumstances the sheer volume of TCP connections can then overwhelm the router. So even though the bandwidth needed is quite small, the effect is that internet access grinds to a halt with DNS and web timeouts.

543120 2007-04-22 05:11:00 Thanks, alot better but still not 100%, I have done the trojan remover and if found some and nuked them, the rougue remover also did the same. Then did what you suggested using HJT but could not find a couple of the files you mentioned, I wondered if they were killed with either rougue remover or Tremover. Have run HJT again, log file as below, please make any further suggestion. Also have turned off Skype.

543121 2007-04-22 05:20:00 further update, still slow, so slow Yahoomail cant load but faster than before, at least herald pages load a little quicker. toddh (6125)
543122 2007-04-22 05:28:00 Make a folder called HJT on C: And put the hijackthis file u downloaded into it then run it again, then after u click on scan and save a log, tick these entries and tick fix checked.

Close browser/s.

Did u select the 3rd - 7th in utils in Trojan remover as well?

And whats not 100%??

IE you mean??

When Trojan remover picked up whatever, what did u select to remove their entries from the registry? rename the files?

See if Program files Mywebsearch is still there, if it is delete it.

Then get ccleaner (www.ccleaner.com)

Install this run it then click on run cleaner. Close browsers. Then click on issues, whatever it brings up remove the entries.
Speedy Gonzales (78)
543123 2007-04-22 07:43:00 Have done this now, run cc cleaner and did the fixes suggested. got rid of the mywebsearch files, they were still present still running very very slow, any other suggestions ? toddh (6125)
