hello,
while doing "disc cleanup" the above(subject) appeared. i googled it and arrived at "bleepingcomputer.com".
he said that strange things were happening on his computer. the answer to his post was to reboot in safe mode then double-click SmitfraudFix.exe - #2clean - enter. a Registry cleaning prompt will appear-do you want to clean? - yes - enter - in order to rremove the Desktop background and clean registry keys associated with the infection. then the tool would check to see if wininet.dll is infected. then restart.
although the kinds of things that were happening to him weren't happening to me - just the fact that it showed up in my "disc cleanup" makes me question it. should i follow the posted directions, too?
i'm a neophyte and anything i can do to help save my pc, i'll do.
thank you.

dear evilfantasy,
thank you so much for the detailed info.
before i start to follow your directions i did a "IPC"search" of my pc. i was going to scan/send to you, but i received a message that the file was too big. that is because the search was superimposed on my desktop and i don't know how to remove the desktop background & just send the search info.
i will give it to you in this reply and (if you will) you can tell me if i need to proceed w/ your directions, please.
these were in my "search - all files/folders":
Trojan.Zipcodec.dsc,Trojan.ZipCodec.prf,Zipclix.dsc,Zipclix.prf,ipcfg.xml,ipconf.tsp,ipconfig.exe,wmipcima.dll,wmipcima.mfl,wmipcima.mof,SNIPCI.HTM,SNIPCI.TXT.
these are repeated three times on the searchpage.
thank you
-
You need to follow my instructions. I know how to read the logs from the scans and am not sure what I would do with the IPC Search results.
-

Looking over your log, it seems you don't have any evidence of an anti-virus software.
Anti-virus software are programs that detect, cleanse, and erase harmful virus files on a computer, Web server, or network.Unchecked, virus files can unintentionally be forwarded to others, including trading partners and thereby spreading infection. Because new viruses regularly emerge, anti-virus software should be updated frequently. Anti-virus software can scan the computer memory and disk drives for malicious code. They can alert the user if a virus is present, and will clean, delete (or quarantine) infected files or directories.
- Avast! Home Edition (http://www.filehippo.com/download_avast_antivirus/) - Anti-virus program for Windows. The home edition is freeware for noncommercial users.
- AVG Free Edition (http://www.filehippo.com/download_avg_antivirus/) - Free edition of the AVG anti-virus program for Windows.
- AntiVir Personal (http://www.filehippo.com/download_antivir/) - Free anti-virus software for Windows. Detects and removes more than 50,000 viruses. Free support.
.
It is strongly recommended that you run only one antivirus program at a time. Having more than one antivirus program active in memory uses additional resources and can result in program conflicts and false virus alerts. If you choose to install more than one antivirus program on your computer, then only one of them should be active in memory at a time.

What problems are you having with the PC?
-
dear evilfantasy,
as i stated principally - i'm a neophyte and when something new/odd turns up someplace i don't expect it
i have a tendency to panic.
i can't afford a new pc, but with your stellar assistance i don't have to worry about it.
thank you. i am truly appreciative !!!
