Hi I use explorer 6 in windows xp and each time I try to surf certain sites such as log in to my bank or ebay etc. it brings up page can not be displayed. Has anyone experienced this and is it some sort of virus
the best way to tell is to download HJT from herehttp://www.lurkhere.com
and generate a log which you can then post here for someone to inspect . If you have any problems it will show up
sorry I’m quite a novice at this virus detection how do I generate a log and post it ???
read this after downloadin and unzipping to your c drive (vrey small file)http://hjt.wizardsofwebsites.com/
Managed to download log file
Greg i dont see anything with mainsearch reference on it ?
where did you get the information that that was a problem??
the mainsearch has been sorted. this is another problem. When I browse with explorer its okay on some sites but wihen Itry to log into my ebay account or bank it brings up the page can not be diplayed.
i guess you must have deleted it already , ok the only thing that could possibly be out of place is this one O4 - HKLM..\RunOnce: [IE 3.0 RegSvr schannel.dll] C:\WINDOWS\System32\regsvr32.exe /s C:\WINDOWS\System32\schannel.dll Unknown
Unknown The entered application IE 3.0 RegSvr schannel.dll was identified: None. Hit rate: 5 % (result) Unknown application.
i would be a little suspect of this one unless you know it to be genuine . the good thing about HJT is you can go back at a later date and re-apply your log file if you delete a good one by accident
here is a link to a report on this file http://support.microsoft.com/kb/q184055/
mmm. went in and scan and fixed thru hijack but still ne effect
here is new log
this is the page I keep getting >:(
The page cannot be displayed
The page you are looking for is currently unavailable. The Web site might be experiencing technical difficulties, or you may need to adjust your browser settings.
Please try the following:
Click the Refresh button, or try a
Have you considered that maybe the site you are trying to view/load is down for some reason?
another possibility is i see winsock-lsp problems on your HJT and i know ADAWARE has a lsp fix as a plug in attachment
that could be a possibility
ADAWARE SE can be found at lavasoft .
handy utility even if it doesnt fix this issue
the sites are fine I’ve been using my lap top to go into them…
the other thing I also can’t download window updates something about active x settings “current security settings prohibit running active x controls on this page” ???
do you know where your security settings are?
go tools/ internet options/security/internet/set level to high medium or low .
it was set at low now set to medium
while your in internet options you can check the advanced tab(i presume you are using win xp) and verify that all the options you need are allocated there
beyond that i dont know of any other reason why oyur sites wont load
it is all set to enable active x
absolutely last possibility is to repair internet explorer
control panel/add;remove/internet explorer/repair
i know you could do this in win 98 but im not sure if nt os`s have this option
thanks for all your time to help I’ve been running adaware and found some which I have quarantined/deleted.
IECAche Entry - Data miner??? is this a virus?
