Hijack.FolderOptions, PUM.Hijack.HomePageControl, PUM.Disabled.SecurityCenter. NEED HELP TO FIX IT


Recommended Posts

I'm facing a lot of issues with my desktop. Please help me out. I do not know how it happened. Searching through various forums and the Malwarebyes forum itself, I've concluded (not sure though) its a problem of this 'Hijack.' virus thing. Before that here are some of the problems I'm having now.

 

BEFORE using "Last know Good Configuration" from the Advanced boot options.

 

1. The control panel is not working 
I'm able to open it. But the only thing that appears is a blank window (with none of the options in control panel); and the window gets stuck or unresponsive. May be due to a corrupt cpl file (after referring the net. but not sure on what that is) 

2. Services like regedit, anti-virus softwares, etc. cannot be opened in normal mode 
I suspect it has to be a virus, that disables such services. But I did a scan using Avast in safe mode and didnt find any virus. 

3. Lost Admin privileges, though I'm using the admin user account 
I tried to install the BitDefender antivirus initially after all these problems occurred. But the installation could not be completed as it pointed out that I did not have admin privileges. 

4. Theme set to classic windows theme automatically. Unable to use Personalize option 
My windows 7 theme has been reset to a classic window theme, and I'm not able to alter it.

 

 

AFTER using "Last know Good Configuration" from the Advanced boot options.

 

My system gets stuck in "Normal Mode". I'm able to use "Safe Mode" only.

 

1. The control panel is not working 
Still not able to access it even in safe mode.

2. Services like regedit, anti-virus softwares, etc. cannot be opened in normal mode 
Unable to open. But works in safe mode.

3. Theme restored to aero style in normal mode 
The theme has been restored. But whats the point if the whole system hangs :(

 

 

 

OK. Here's the log of the scan I did with Malwarebytes.

The log shows that you appear to have 2 antivirus programs running. avast and AVG

You can only have one antivirus installed so please pick one of them to use and Fully uninstall the other one.

Please check now and see if you can logon to Normal Mode or not and let me know.

Please run the following and post back the logs. Getting late here so I'll check back on you sometime tomorrow.

STEP 01

Backup the Registry:

Modifying the Registry can create unforeseen problems, so it always wise to create a backup before doing so.

  • Please download ERUNT from one of the following links: Link1 | Link2 | Link3
  • ERUNT (Emergency Recovery Utility NT) is a free program that allows you to keep a complete backup of your registry and restore it when needed.
  • Double click on erunt-setup.exe to Install ERUNT by following the prompts.
  • Start ERUNT either by double clicking on the desktop icon or choosing to start the program at the end of the setup process.
  • Choose a location for the backup.
    • Note: the default location is C:\Windows\ERDNT which is acceptable.
  • Make sure that at least the first two check boxes are selected.
  • Click on OK
  • Then click on YES to create the folder.
  • Note: if it is necessary to restore the registry, open the backup folder and start ERDNT.exe

    STEP 02

    Please download Malwarebytes Anti-Rootkit from HERE

    • Unzip the contents to a folder in a convenient location.
    • Open the folder where the contents were unzipped and run mbar.exe
    • Follow the instructions in the wizard to update and allow the program to scan your computer for threats.
    • Click on the Cleanup button to remove any threats and reboot if prompted to do so.
    • Wait while the system shuts down and the cleanup process is performed.
    • Perform another scan with Malwarebytes Anti-Rootkit to verify that no threats remain. If they do, then click Cleanup once more and repeat the process.
    • When done, please post the two logs produced they will be in the MBAR folder... mbar-log.txt and system-log.txt
    STEP 03

    Please download Junkware Removal Tool to your desktop.

    • Shutdown your antivirus to avoid any conflicts.
    • Right click over JRT.exe and select Run as administrator on Windows Vista or Windows 7, double-click on XP.
    • The tool will open and start scanning your system.
    • Please be patient as this can take a while to complete.
    • On completion, a log (JRT.txt) is saved to your desktop and will automatically open.
    • Post the contents of JRT.txt into your next reply message
    • When completed make sure to re-enable your antivirus
    STEP 04

    Please download AdwCleaner by Xplode to your desktop.

    • Close all open programs and internet browsers.
    • Double click on AdwCleaner.exe to run the tool.
    • If prompted by the User Account Control click Yes to allow it to run.
    • Under Actions click on the Delete button.
    • Click OK on all prompts.
    • You will be prompted to restart your computer. A text file will open after the restart.
    • Please post the entire contents of that logfile to your next reply.
    • You can find the logfile at C:\AdwCleaner[s1].txt where the number in brackets indicates how often it was run.
    STEP 05

    button_eos.gif

    Please go here to run the online antivirus scannner from ESET.

    • Turn off the real time scanner of any existing antivirus program while performing the online scan
    • Tick the box next to YES, I accept the Terms of Use.
    • Click Start
    • When asked, allow the activex control to install
    • Click Start
    • Make sure that the option Remove found threats is unticked
    • Click on Advanced Settings and ensure these options are ticked:
      • Scan for potentially unwanted applications
      • Scan for potentially unsafe applications
      • Enable Anti-Stealth Technology
    • Click Scan
    • Wait for the scan to finish
    • If any threats were found, click the 'List of found threats' , then click Export to text file....
    • Save it to your desktop, then please copy and paste that log as a reply to this topic.
    Thanks

I uninstalled avast. And now I'm able to access my system in normal mode (But still do not know what all functions work and what all functions do not work now). I'm not able to access control panel still, but I'm able to open regedit which I couldn't open before. So should I do the steps you mentioned in normal mode or safe mode (because I'm not sure if my "Normal mode" is fully functional)? Would it be possible for you to reply to this post before you leave? :)

If possible try to run Combofix again from Normal Mode (disable your other AV) and pay attention to the "illegal key note" and then yes after that go ahead and run the other tools as requested.

NOTE: If you receive the message "illegal operation has been attempted on a registry key that has been marked for deletion", just reboot the computer.

Thanks

The ComboFix log of the scan performed in 'Normal Mode". Guess I'll run the steps in normal mode itself. will switch to safe if MBAR doesn't work (like you said). 

 

Sir, I have one more query..its that I can't find my AVG. When I had installed Avast, I had actually uninstalled AVG. But according to the log, you said there are 2 AVs in my system. But I'm not able to locate AVG. Any help with that?

Here's the latest ComboFix log file. I uninstalled both AVG & Avast and installed Bit Defender. Don't know if that would make any difference, but now I have an AV that functions. 

 

NOTE: I had disabled all the AV functions during the ComboFix Scan, so that it does not interfere.
