Ads keep popping up in bottom right/left corner

[beecher]

Hello

during the last month these annoying square-ads keep popping up in the bottom left or right corner of my browser (doesn't matter if I use Chrome or Firefox, it's basicaly the same). I did full scans with my anti-virus program as well as yours but still no luck

as per your instructions I downloaded dds and I am posting the two logs you want below:

DDS.txt

Attach.txt

also here is the log from the last quick scan I did with Malwarebytes Anti-Malware program:

mbam-log-2012-10-01 (18-38-25).txt

let me know what I should do next please

thank you very much

Welcome to the forum.

Before we proceed further, please uninstall or disable uTorrent and any other peer-to-peer filesharing app.

Continued use of filesharing or ill-advised downloads will surely re-infect your system.

P2P file sharing: Know the risks

It's also against the forums policy concerning P2P programs:

Next................

Please remove any usb or external drives from the computer before you run this scan!

Please download and run RogueKiller to your desktop.

Quit all running programs.

For Windows XP, double-click to start.

For Vista or Windows 7, do a right-click on the program, select Run as Administrator to start, & when prompted Allow to run.

Click Scan to scan the system.

When the scan completes > Close out the program > Don't Fix anything!

Don't run any other options, they're not all bad!!!!!!!

Post back the report which should be located on your desktop.

hi

6 threats were found but there was no option to cure, only to delete quarantine or skip.

here are the reports you wanted:

Result.txt

TDSSKiller.2.8.10.0_01.10.2012_20.04.01_log.txt

TDSSKiller.2.8.10.0_01.10.2012_20.09.58_log.txt

[MrCharlie]

I want you to run ComboFix but before you do.......

Please back up the registry:

http://www.geekstogo...ry-using-erunt/

Please create a new system restore point also.

If after running ComboFix you can't connect to the internet, please navigate to

the C:\WINDOWS\ERDNT folder and run ERDNT.exe > this will restore the registry > reboot and see how it is.

If that doesn't work....use that system restore point and that will correct the problem.

Please download and run ComboFix.

The most important things to remember when running it is to disable all your malware programs and run Combofix from your desktop.

Please visit this webpage for download links, and instructions for running ComboFix

http://www.bleepingc...to-use-combofix

Ensure you have disabled all anti virus and anti malware programs so they do not interfere with the running of ComboFix.

Information on disabling your malware programs can be found Here.

Make sure you run ComboFix from your desktop.

Give it at least 30-45 minutes to finish if needed.

Please include the C:\ComboFix.txt in your next reply for further review.

---------->NOTE<----------

If you get the message Illegal operation attempted on registry key that has been marked for deletion after you run ComboFix....please reboot the computer, this should resolve the problem. You may have to do this several times if needed.

MrC

[beecher]

hi

I think the problem is solved now...I have done everything you said in your last message and looks fine now

here is the last combofix report should you want it for anything

thank you very much I really appreciate it!

ComboFix.txt

[MrCharlie]

OK, that's not the complete log from ComboFix, can you please post it, MrC

[beecher]

hello

this is the file that was created actually...did I do something wrong?

[MrCharlie]

That's the correct file but it looks like you didn't copy everything in the log, can you try again and make sure you copy the entire log.

MrC

[MrCharlie]

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

A little clean up to do....

Please Uninstall ComboFix: (if you used it)

Press the Windows logo key + R to bring up the "run box"

Copy and paste next command in the field:

ComboFix /uninstall

Make sure there's a space between Combofix and /

Then hit enter.

This will uninstall Combofix, delete its related folders and files, hide file extensions, hide the system/hidden files and clears System Restore cache and create new Restore point

(If that doesn't work.....you can simply rename ComboFix.exe to Uninstall.exe and double click it to complete the uninstall)

---------------------------------

Please download OTL from one of the links below: (you may already have OTL on the system)

http://oldtimer.geekstogo.com/OTL.exe

http://www.itxassoci...T-Tools/OTL.exe

Save it to your desktop.

Run OTL and hit the CleanUp button. (This will cleanup the tools and logs used including itself)

Any other programs or logs you can manually delete.

IE: RogueKiller.exe, RKreport.txt, RK_Quarantine folder, C:\FRST, etc....
