I would recommend dowloading Ad-Aware (if you don't already have it [custom scan>scan within archives] ) - scan with that (although it is an adware/malware scanner) , reboot and scan again (with all your AV scanners.) , that's what I do. Additionally do you have system restore turned on I've heard that viruses can restore themselves via system restore. However don't count on me wait for an expert to seal the deal :) hope your problem gets sorted soon.
Additionally, your log file looks fine but again wait for the pro's

Update your Windows (critical updates)

Use HJT to remove the following.
O1 - Hosts: 203.27.235.25 www.payseal.icicibank.com
O1 - Hosts: 210.210.19.82 www.sifymall.com
O2 - BHO: (no name) - {02478D38-C3F9-4efb-9B51-7695ECA05670} - (no file)

Change the attributes on your HOSTS file to 'read only'.

Consider installing Spybot S&D and using the realtime protection offered in the 'Tools' section.

Post by: Fed on September 22, 2007, 09:06:59 PM
Navigate to your HOSTS file, it will be in the following directory.

C:\Windows\system32\drivers\etc

Right click on the file and select 'Properties' and 'Read Only'.
Click Apply OK etc...

For the online scan try Panda Activescan (http://www.pandasoftware.com/products/activescan.htm)

You should run Ccleaner Slim (http://www.ccleaner.com/download/builds.aspx) first just to clear the clutter.
If Panda finds anything it doesn't clean for you then clean up the rest at Ewido/AVG Anti-Spyware Online Scan (http://www.ewido.net/en/) in fact you're better off going there first anyway.

Update your Windows (critical updates)

Use HJT to remove the following.
O1 - Hosts: 203.27.235.25 www.payseal.icicibank.com
O1 - Hosts: 210.210.19.82 www.sifymall.com
O2 - BHO: (no name) - {02478D38-C3F9-4efb-9B51-7695ECA05670} - (no file)

Change the attributes on your HOSTS file to 'read only'.

Consider installing Spybot S&D and using the realtime protection offered in the 'Tools' section.
Just use the 'Scan Now' button, the program will still download and open on your computer but there will be no trace of it when you're finished.

Ivy...

It seems the remaining infections are in your system restore folder.

You may want to:

Please note that turning System Restore off will clear all System Restore points from your computer.

Once the scans in Safe Mode are done and your malware protection has found and deleted and/or quarantined any infections...you should then turn System Restore back on and then run the Ewido scan again and post your results.

Keep your fingers crossed...

Steve did you read the update in my post? do i still need to do the above suggested steps? if yes then i will just start doing that.
If all System Restore points from my computer will be clared what will i need to do then?
Thanks

Post by: The Saviour on September 24, 2007, 12:44:01 AM
Sorry, Ivy...I misread that post...I thought they were still there...I'm just a little tired and apologize.

Now that you know your system is clean...it would be a good idea to turn System Restore off and then back on again.

The reason being is that you want to start creating System Restore points for the times and dates when you knew your system was clean.

If you are confident your system is now free of any and all infections...I would clear all previous System Restore points and start anew.

I hope you understand what I'm referring to...I am a little tired and need to get some shut-eye.  However, if you'd like to wait for CBMatt's recommendation...by all means.

I won't say that he'd approve 100% of my recommendation, but he will understand where I'm coming from.  I can't speak for him...know what I mean?

Your Internet Explorer has an 'odd' version number have you ever had IE7 on that machine? It may be mis-reporting the number.

I see you haven't used the Spybot S&D realtime protection, any reason?

You can get SpyBot Search and Destroy from here, Ivy:

Spybot Search and Destroy (http://www.saviour-pc.com/forums/downloads.php?do=file&id=15)

To find out what version of IE you have...from IE's toolbar menu click Help/About Internet Explorer and copy the version number down.

Title: Re: Please take a look.
Post by: Fed on September 26, 2007, 07:40:57 PM
If you already have Spybot S&D then just open it up then change the 'Mode' at he top of the screen to 'Advanced', if you don't have Spybot S&D then get it from here.
Spybot S&D (http://www.safer-networking.org/)
Then we can go on from there.

I don't know about your IE6 Version number either, perhaps someone with IE7 can help with the Version Number.
I don't think it's anything to worry about at this stage.

You can check it in IE>Help>About Internet Explorer.

Edit: When I hit post and saw that you had posted Saviour I thought, "I'm not wasting my additional typing so I posted anyway. LOL!"

This is common for popular DLoads as the huge amount of traffic can bog things down.

You should be able to turn off the firewall from within Comodo but if you can't find where then try the startup tab of msconfig.
You will need to reboot for changes made in the msconfig startup tab to take affect. (Same when you re-enable it)

Here is the list of things that happened:
Firstly i ran msconfig and uncheked comodo option , i clicked apply but a message appeared saying i need to log on with the Administrator account,then i clicked it again , it says windows will restart , i let it restart, but when it restarts , a message appears telling me to choose one of the options:
1)Normal start up.
2)Diagnostic start up
3)selective start up.
I clicked Normal start up and Diagnostic start up one by one repeating all the procedure, but both of the times comodo was still running, i decided to start up normally and not experiment any furthur , I  thought it will be better to let you know first.


Also these days after closing sites like youtube and photobucket etc a message is displayed telling
The instruction 0*62304390 refered memory at 0*62304390.
The memory could not be read
Click OK to terminate the program.


Thanks a lot Fed , im waiting for help.

Log on as Admin and use msconfig to disable Comodo (reboot) or disable it from within the Comodo program then try the Spybot S&D download.

One step at a time & read every screen carefully.

I'm sure Chris is watching & laughing as we try to keep this thread on track. :D

Just to recap, our objective at the moment is to disable Comodo to see if that will allow Ivy to download Spybot S&D.
It would seem that all of Ivy's downloads are being cut short and there was talk of Comodo being the culprit in another thread.
If this is a setting within Comodo I'd hope someone will chime in with a fix.

We can address any remaining issues later, I don't want this thread to wander aimlessly so we need to stay focussed.

We can address any remaining issues later, I don't want this thread to wander aimlessly so we need to stay focussed.

Yeah hes just extremely busy with his studys...... and social life.... Im sure once hes sorted he will be back full time in no-time..... :D

I would recommend dowloading Ad-Aware (if you don't already have it [custom scan>scan within archives] ) - scan with that (although it is an adware/malware scanner) , reboot and scan again (with all your AV scanners.) , that's what I do. Additionally do you have system restore turned on I've heard that viruses can restore themselves via system restore. However don't count on me wait for an expert to seal the deal :) hope your problem gets sorted soon.
Additionally, your log file looks fine but again wait for the pro's
In Reply to this i had said lets wait for Chris to take a look at this, at this point Fed had not taken a look at the thread, and i was not aware that he helps in viruses too, since Fed took up the thread i have been taking only his help, im sure CBmatt must be busy and thanks for the information Tony.

Fed,
The start menu is filling up again as im using programs, they appear in it.
I clicked on the programs from clicking the arrow.
Fed i  already have the administrators account, what should i do now
Please help.

Log on as Admin and use msconfig to disable Comodo (reboot) or disable it from within the Comodo program then try the Spybot S&D download.

One step at a time & read every screen carefully.

I have been quite busy, but I've looked into this thread a few times.  I hadn't chimed because it looked like things were mostly under control and I didn't want to get in Fed's way.

Ivy,
When I use msconfig, I get the same error message, but it still works for me.  When you were presented with the different options, did you try Selective Startup?  Try going through the steps once again just to see what happens.  If you're still having trouble, it may be an issue for the Windows board.

If we have to disable Comodo from startup and msconfig won't work for you, we can do it through HijackThis.  But for now, when you want to disable Comodo, just right-click on its icon in the system tray (bottom right corner) and then click on Exit.  Then try downloading Spybot.  Also try SUPERAntiSpyware (http://www.superantispyware.com).

Let us know if it works or if you're still having trouble.

I have to ask...does this problem only happen when trying to download Spybot, or does it happen with other downloads as well?
Are you on a dial-up or broadband connection?
Have you tried using Firefox when downloading?
Do you use a download manager (http://www.freedownloadmanager.org) of any sort?

Sorry for all of the questions, but sometimes, we must resort to the process of elimination.

I have never used a download manager.
Thanks for helping.

Go back to msconfig and make sure your Comodo entries are ticked again and that Comodo is operational.

One step at a time Ivy and stay focussed.

You started this thread with a request to check your HJT log, I think you should have started with 'Why are my downloads being cut short'.

I think your downloading problem is all we should be concerned with at the moment, after that's solved we can move on.

Your thoughts?

Thankyou Fed,
I would like to bring to your notice that i started this thread on HJT log ,but then after following your steps , we reached the point where i had to download spybot , that is where the downloading issue came up, and since then it has been going on , and disabling comodo and everything else was done just to download spybot.
The downloading issue came up because it was one of the instructions to download spybot and all i have been doing is to follow that instruction.
I have never strayed offtopic on this thread and followed every step carefully.
Thankyou so much for help Fed and everyone else.

Sorry, I only saw you mention Spybot.  I didn't see you mention not being able to download anything else.  When a thread gets up to 5 pages, it's very easy to become lost.

I would like for you to give Firefox a try and see if it helps.  If you have no luck, then perhaps you download the suggested programs on another computer and transfer them via CD or flash drive.

I am temporarily unlocking your thread.  If you wish to keep it locked, then so be it.

Thankyou for your help CBmatt,
I will like to keep this topic locked for sometime, till the downloading issue gets solved in the other thread that has already been started.

This thread was flamed unnessarily and the topic was changed so many times that it sure was hard to keep track of what is being solved.

Thankyou .
