Title: everything on my desktop disappears
Post by: adamD on February 20, 2008, 02:39:15 PM
When I log onto the internet, its fine for a while but soon everyhing goes away on my desk top. All my icons and the bottom task bar. However all the windows or programs that I was using stay but just kind of float there as if I downsized the window and instead of going into the task bar on the bottom just kind of sits on top of it even though its not there.This doesnt happen all the time. But a few times a little window poped up saying that "One or more files appear to be invalid. This is caused by corrupted installation. Please download and install limewire again" Then below that there is some report that its letting me copy. This may not have anything to do with it I am just guessing. Earlier I had downloaded a program on Limewire and this started to happen, yes I know I shouldn't just download random things on Limewire but this is kind of bothering me. I am just guessing that it is a virus, because I don't want to do another system restore. Any help would be great

Go to the link below and scroll down to the CCleaner and Hijackthis instructions. Run CCleaner and then post the HJT log back here.

Alright like I was saying before. After a bit everything on my desk top would disappear. Sometimes before it happens a window keeps appearing saying "One or more necessary files may be invalid Generally cause by a corruption during installation, and to download limewire again" When I close it off after a minute all the stuff would disappear. Now earlier it popped up and nothing happened but the window itself is pretty annoying and here is my HJT log

First, uninstall either McAfee AntiSpyware or the Symantec/Norton. Having two antivirus or firewalls is never suggested as it can cause system conflicts, slowdowns and crashes.

There is alot of malware on the PC

----------

Download SDFix.exe (http://downloads.andymanchesta.com/RemovalTools/SDFix.exe) and save it to your Desktop.

Double click SDFix.exe and it will extract the files to %systemdrive%
(Drive that contains the Windows Directory, typically C:\SDFix)

Please then reboot your computer in Safe Mode by doing the following:

----------

Please download Combofix by sUBs from one of the below links.
(Try all three if necessary)Important! Combofix.exe MUST be saved to and ran from the Desktop.

Keep following the instructions and we'll get you fixed up...
It takes more than a few steps most times. Be patient and do what's required.

Now download  The Avenger By Swandog46 (http://swandog46.geekstogo.com/avenger.zip), and save it to your Desktop.Drivers to unload:

Code: [Select]
Folders to delete:
C:\WINDOWS\ssqnmmnm
C:\WINDOWS\system32\ssqnmmnm

Files to delete:
C:\WINDOWS\system32\vbzip10.dll
C:\WINDOWS\system32\ddayxwtu.dll
C:\WINDOWS\jkhfedab.dll
C:\Documents and Settings\Owner\Application Data\awtqqpmn.dll

Registry values to delete:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\~\Browser Helper Objects\{4862C7B6-5906-5FA9-511A-5F00B7CC8DC8}

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\~\Browser Helper Objects\{9485F885-9C7C-4EF8-83F6-FE154E3873E9}

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\Curr entVersion\Run\mljigdbbxu

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\Curr entVersion\Run\pmkhghijgd

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\system\currentcontrolset\contro l\lsa

Note: the above instructions were created specifically for this user. If you are not this user, DO NOT follow these directions as they could damage the workings of your systemThe Avenger will automatically do the following:.
----------

Go to My Computer->Tools->Folder Options->View tab:
.
Boot into safe mode and use Windows Explorer to delete:

j?vaw.exe found in:

C:\WINDOWS\system32\j?vaw.exe <--- be careful with this, the ? can be any number of characters. Also, java.exe and javaw.exe are valid files which you do not want to delete. They are very small (about 25 to 30 Kbytes). The bad file will probably be much larger (like 200 to 400 Kbytes).

If you get an error when deleting a file. Right click on the file and check to see if the read only attribute is checked. If it is, uncheck it and try again. Other wise open Task Manager and kill the process if running then delete the file.

Run CCleaner after deleting the file.

When I open the avenger, all I really get is a big text box, a few buttons for loading scripts, an execute button and a few other things. Do I just copy the code into the text box and hit execute?

The Avenger has recently updated and I need to change my instructions. Once open paste everything in the Input script Here box and click Execute.

Ok after I did the Avenger log, and made all the files visible, when I went into safe mode and into windows\system32 to go and delete j?ava.exe I couldn't find it. All I had was java.exe, javacpl.cpl, javaw.exe, and javaws.exe

Can you log on in safe mode?

Do you have an XP CD to boot from and do a repair install?
