anythicago injecting malware in svchost.exe dll's

Hi all

Apologies for creating a new thread for what seems like a known problem, but as fixes seem to be PC specific, I thought keeping things in individual threads a better idea.

I’m also receiving a warning every time PC/Browser starts about anythingago.com (sometimes other addresses) attacking system dlls

I’m trying to clear out this particular PC but neither AV software, nor SpyBot S&D seems to be able to even find the malware let alone remove it.

From what I have read it’s a malicious entry in the registry, but I know enough about the registry to know that I don’t know enough to dive into regedit. So any assistance you can provide here would be brilliant, thanks!

I agree with Eddy … Remove Hola

Is there a generic fix for this issue?
I also have the same issue

No each system is different, start your own thread and we will pick you up there

Hi again

Thanks for the help both, I’ll note to look out for Hola on other systems in future.

Essexboy: cheers for the fix script. Attached are the fixlog and ADW’s log file as well.

After two reboots it looks like that did the trick. Will give it 24hrs to be sure.

Thanks again!

Looking at the fixlist result I doubt if it will be back :slight_smile:
