Another 732 error

badnewz · November 27, 2009

As a background I just removed the AV system Pro malware with the use of the rkill.exe and malwarebytes. My problem now is I cant seem to update mbam. I have even tried with my firewalls turned off and the automatic config fix for internet options settings. Neither seemed to work. here is my HJT log:

Hi,

Open your Internet Explorer:

In IE: Tools Menu -> Internet Options -> Connections Tab ->Lan Settings > uncheck "use a proxy server" and check to "Automatically detect settings".

In Firefox in Tools Menu -> Options... -> Advanced Tab -> Network Tab -> "Settings" under Connection.

Also, check the following entry in the HijackThisscan:

R1 - HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Internet Settings,ProxyServer = http=127.0.0.1:5555

Click the fix checked button below.

Then, try to update malwarebytes again (it should work now) and perform a new scan with it.

Let it remove everything it is finding.

Then reboot.

After reboot, post the malwarebytes log together with a new HijackThislog.

Thank you so much! I did as you said and was able to update malwarebytes. After another scan it removed 3 more infections. Here are my logs from updated malwarebytes and hijackthis:
