422880 2006-01-20 20:10:00 Greetings.

My PC is (again) infected with a multitude of spyware and malware and pop-ups and is running slowly.
A copy of a hijack this logfile is below.
Can someone please advise what is best to do?
I am happy to buy something that will clean me up and keep me
clean if I know it is any good.

Cheers.

422881 2006-01-20 20:18:00 Have a look at the FAQs about makware/spyware/hijackings and get those recommended programs and run them in the recommended way and you will be off to a good start. mark c (247)
422882 2006-01-20 20:28:00 I suggest you read the information at this site regarding rogue spyware products.
I see you are using some that are not recommended.
www.spywarewarrior.com

Before you install any spyware programs make sure they are reputable and trustworthy and some are listed at that site as well as information on how to avoid infection.

C:\WINNT\system32\mssearchnet.exe

Maybe this (securityresponse.symantec.com)

C:\WINNT\system32\nvctrl.exe

C:\Program Files\Media Access\MediaAccK.exe
C:\Program Files\Media Access\MediaAccess.exe

Look in add / remove programs. Uninstall Media Access.

Try this (dl.filekicker.com) from here (www.simplysup.com)

Run this click on scan, then select the 3rd-7th option under the utilities menu.

Post another HJT log after u do the above.

422884 2006-01-23 04:39:00 Thanks for all that. How do I disable system restore (win2k)? ptopz (4662)
422885 2006-01-23 04:44:00 Hmm good question. I dont think Windows 2k has system restore. Only Windows ME and XP use it.

I didnt have it long enough to use it, if its there.

Just boot into safe mode, and tick the previous entries in my previous post.

Then reboot.
Speedy Gonzales (78)
422886 2006-01-23 04:58:00 No system restore on Win2K for sure. zqwerty (97)
422887 2006-01-23 05:47:00 This will be the only way to clean out mssearchnet . exe which is a part of SpyAxe virus/malware .




Download smitRem . exe ( . geekstogo . com/click%20counter/click . php?id=1" target="_blank">noahdfear . geekstogo . com) and save the file to your desktop .
Double click on the file to extract it to it's own folder on the desktop .


Open the smitRem folder, then double click the RunThis . bat file to start the tool . Follow the prompts on screen .
Wait for the tool to complete and disk cleanup to finish .


Post a new log when done .
