Hi DFMM, welcome to the forum.
To make cleaning this machine easier
[*]Please do not uninstall/install any programs unless asked to
It is more difficult when files/programs are appearing in/disappearing from the logs.
[*]Please do not run any scans other than those requested
[*]Please follow all instructions in the order posted
[*]All logs/reports, etc… must be posted in Notepad. Please ensure that word wrap is unchecked. In notepad click format, uncheck word wrap if it is checked.
[*]Do not attach any logs/reports, etc… unless specifically requested to do so.
[*]If you have problems with or do not understand the instructions, Please ask before continuing.
[*]Please stay with this thread until given the All Clear. A absence of symptoms does not mean a clean machine.
There are quite a few services missing. We’ll worry about them after we get this cleaned up a bit.
Download ComboFix from one of these locations:
* IMPORTANT !!! Save ComboFix.exe to your Desktop
[*]Disable your AntiVirus and AntiSpyware applications, usually via a right click on the System Tray icon. They may otherwise interfere with our tools. Note: If you are having difficulty properly disabling your protective programs, or are unsure as to what programs need to be disabled, please refer to the information available through this link : How to Disable your Security Programs
[*]Right click on ComboFix.exe, click Run as Administrator & follow the prompts.
When finished, it shall produce a log for you. Please include the C:\ComboFix.txt in your next reply.
Notes:
1.Do not mouse-click Combofix’s window while it is running. That may cause it to stall.
2. ComboFix may reset a number of Internet Explorer’s settings, including making I-E the default browser.
3. If after running combofix you recieve an message “Illegal operation attempted on a registery key that has been marked for deletion” or similar reboot the computer.
4. CF disconnects your machine from the internet. The connection is automatically restored before CF completes its run. If CF runs into difficulty [u]and terminates prematurely, the connection can be manually restored by restarting your machine.
Please post back with the combofix log.
Thanks

One more scan to check our handiwork.
As a Vista/Win7 user you will need to right click your browser icon and select “Run as Administrator” in order to run this scan.
[]Do not use this instance of your browser for anything besides doing this scan
[]When the scan is complete and the results saved, close that instance of your browser
[*]Open a new one the usual way and post the results in this topic.
*Note
It is recommended to disable onboard antivirus program and antispyware programs while performing scans so there are no conflicts and it will speed up scan time.
Please don’t go surfing while your resident protection is disabled!
Once the scan is finished remember to re-enable your antivirus along with your antispyware programs.
Go here to run an online scannner from
ESET
(Note: You can use Internet Explorer or FireFox for this scan. If you use FireFox you will be asked to install an additional component. Please allow this.)
[*]Tick the box next to YES, I accept the Terms of Use.
[*]Click Start
[*]When asked, allow the activex control to install
[*]Disable your Antivirus software. You can usually do this with its Notfication Tray icon near the clock
[*]Click Start
[*]Make sure that the option “Remove found threats” is Unchecked, and the option “Scan unwanted applications” is Checked.
[*]Click Scan.
[*]Wait for the scan to finish.
[*]When the scan completes, click List of found threats
[*]click Export to Text file and save the file to your desktop using a unique name, such as ESETScan.
[*]Include the contents of this report in your next reply
Note - when ESET doesn’t find any threats, no report will be created.
[*]Push the back button.
[*]Push Finish
[*]Re-enable your Antivirus software.
Please post back with
[]MBAM log
[]ESET log if there was one.
Any problems?
Hi oldman
MBAM & ESET logs attached
Hi DFMM,
I do believe you are good to go. The ESET detections are files we have all ready quarantined. These will be rmoved when the tools are removed.
We’ll clean up the tools now.
From your desktop, please delete, if present
[]any notepads/logs that we created
[]aswMBR.exe
[]Farbar Service Scanner (FSS)
[]mbr.dat
Next
Click the Start button. Copy and paste the following line into the search box and click OK
Combofix /uninstall
Next
Open OTL then click the Clean Up button. You may get prompted by your firewall that OTL wants to contact the internet - allow this. A cleanup.txt will be downloaded, a message dialog will ask you if you want to proceed with the cleanup process, click Yes. This will do some clean up tasks and delete some of the tools you have downloaded plus itself.
I suggest you keep MBAM. Keep it updated and use it regularly.
Some Recommendations and prevention tips
Basic security consists of 1 antivirus program, 1 resident antispyware program, 1 on demand antispyware program and a firewall. Those you have now provided you are using a firewall. Windows 7 has a built in firewall which is pretty good when set up. You can find some very good information HERE .
You should also use Spyware Blaster to help immunize your computer.
- SpywareBlaster will add a large list of programs and sites into your Internet Explorer
settings that will protect you from running and downloading known malicious programs.

Besides the Hosts file information, there are links to a very good updated hosts file, a host file manager. and some programs that can protect your hosts file.
HOSTS
Please read the info on disabling the DNS Client before installing a custom hosts file.
-Secure your Internet Explorer
From within Internet Explorer click on the Tools menu and then click on Options.
[*]Click once on the Security tab
[*]Click once on the Internet icon so it becomes highlighted.
[*]Click once on the Custom Level button.
[*]Change the Download signed ActiveX controls to Prompt
[*]Change the Download unsigned ActiveX controls to Disable
[*]Change the Initialize and script ActiveX controls not marked as safe to Disable
[*]Change the Installation of desktop items to Prompt
[*]Change the Launching programs and files in an IFRAME to Prompt
[*]Change the Navigate sub-frames across different domains to Prompt
[*]When all these settings have been made, click on the OK button.
[*]If it prompts you as to whether or not you want to save the settings, press the Yes button.
Next press the Apply button and then the OK to exit the Internet Properties page.
