Stop all running applications so nothing is running.

Then run HJT and do a scan and place a check mark on these items

Download
CCleaner
from

to clean temp files from your computer.

  • Double click on the ccsetup.exe file to start the installation of the program.
  • Select your language and click
    OK
    , then
    next
    .

  • Read the license agreement and click
    I Agree
    .

  • Click
    next
    to use the default install location.

  • Under Install Options, choose all the default settings except
    I would recommend that you unclick/untick install the Yahoo! Toolbar, unless you want it. You can also Uncheck the 'Automatically check for updates' box.

  • Click
    Install
    then
    finish
    to complete installation.

  • Double click the
    CCleaner
    shortcut on the desktop to start the program.

  • On the "Windows" tab, under "Internet Explorer," uncheck "Cookies" if you do not want them deleted. (If deleted, you will likely need to reenter your passwords at all sites where a cookie is used to recognize you when you visit).

  • Click on the "Options" icon at the left side of the window, then click on "Advanced."

    deselect
    "Only delete files in Windows Temp folders older than 48 hours."

  • Caution:
    It is not recommended that you use the "Registry" feature unless you are very familiar with the registry as it has been known to find legitimate items.
    Click on Registry and make sure Registry Integrity is UNchecked!

  • Click on the "Cleaner" icon on the left side of the window, then click
    Run Cleaner
    to run the program.

  • After

Hello Sven

The log shows that you did not allow MB to remove files it found.

Please run MB again and update it again and then do another Quick Scan and allow it to fix what it finds.

NOTE: Please do not use the CODE BOXES - just paste the logs directly into your reply.

This can take time to clean up properly so please be patient. Run MB, update it, quick scan, allow to remove, new HJT, post logs.

Please try to upload this file if you can: C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM32\fxxjlf.dll to HJT Log Requested File Upload

If you can not upload the file or it is 0 bytes in size let me know and we'll take it from there.

Don't forget that we need you to run the HJT scan AFTER you scan AND clean with Malwarebytes and then post the MB, then the HJT logs.

I've come to realise that the virus actually is gone in both NAV and MBAM(fullsystem scans) as long as I'm not connected to the internet - and then it comes back when I connect.

Heres the logs:

Hi Sven,

Okay we've now added detection for that file. Please run MB again and go to the UPDATE tab and update MB and run a Quick Scan (not a full scan) then make sure you have MB remove anything it finds and reboot the computer if requested.

Then run another HJT scan after the reboot and post both of those logs again.

At this time your system appears to be clean. Nothing else in the logs indicates that you are still infected.

Now that you are clean, please follow these simple steps in order to keep your computer clean and secure:

Disable and Enable System Restore-WINDOWS XP

This is a good time to clear your existing system restore points and establish a new clean restore point:

Turn off System Restore

  • On the Desktop, right-click My Computer.
  • Click Properties.

  • Click the System Restore tab.

  • Check Turn off System Restore.

  • Click Apply, and then click OK.

  • Reboot.

Turn ON System Restore

  • On the Desktop, right-click My Computer.
  • Click Properties.

  • Click the System Restore tab.

  • UN-Check *Turn off System Restore*.

  • Click Apply, and then click OK.

This will remove all restore points except the new one you just created.

Here are some free programs I recommend that could help you improve your computer's security.

Spybot Search and Destroy 1.5.2

Download it from
here
. Just choose a mirror and off you go.

Find here the tutorial on how to use Spybot properly
here

Install SpyWare Blaster 4.1

Download it from
here

Find here the tutorial on how to use Spyware Blaster
here

Install WinPatrol

Download it from
here

Here you can find information about how WinPatrol works
here

Install FireTrust SiteHound

You can find information and download it from
here

Install MVPS Hosts File

from here

The MVPS Hosts file replaces your current HOSTS file with one containing well known ad sites etc. Basically, this prevents your computer from connecting to those sites by redirecting them to 127.0.0.1 which is your local computer.

You can find a tutorial here :
http://www.mvps.org/winhelp2002/hosts.htm

Update your Antivirus programs and other security products regularly to avoid new threats that could infect your system.

You can use one of these sites to check if any updates are needed for your pc.

Visit Microsoft often to get the latest updates for your computer.

The windows firewall is not sufficient to protect your system. It doesn't monitor outgoing traffic and this is a must. I recommend
Online Armor Free
