I made a thread about "hidden adware" which explains my problem in detail, but no one replied so I searched on the computer for the registry value that spydoctor 5.1 gave me for the adware search bar that i cant delete, so I found it with registry editer and deleted it but it still comes back so i'm hoping that my log will help someone help me make sense of this annoyance.

hi Dumbpoopy, i will help you, but you have to help me. i am getting posts with no feed back from the posters, we get so far then no more replies from them. we can try combofix to see what it can dig up. you have spysweeper, a second anti-malware app wouldnt be a bad idea. Please download ComboFix (by sUBs) from one of the following links: http://www.techsupportforum.com/sectools/sUBs/ComboFix.exe http://download.bleepingcomputer.com/sUBs/ComboFix.exe Save it to the Desktop. Double-click combofix.exe and follow the prompts. CAUTION: Do not mouse-click ComboFix's window while it is running. It may cause it to stall. When finished, it produces a log. Please provide the contents of the ComboFix log in your reply-- echoreply

sorry for the double post but after that scan, i swept with spy doctor and ended up having still the adware search bar, as well as 2 different trojans.
hi, the combofix log looks ok. so does the hjt log. anyway to save/post the spyware doctor log showing the files its finding? what about spysweeper, is it finding anything? what about ad aware? it is possible to have harmless leftover registry entries. echoreply
Well spysweeper picks up that theres "traces" of something but it never tells me what or deletes them, so i got spyware doctor 5.1 and it keeps telling me that i have an adware easy search bar. And no matter what i do for the life of me it won't go away. And now after running the scan again i have one more infection of that search bar since last time.
are you actually seeing this search bar in internet explorer? or is it just in the registry? echoreply
it only shows up in the registry, and when i delete it from there, its back within 20 mins, would uninstalling internet explorer rid the problem?
no, i was assuming you were seeing the toolbar in IE. its possible to have harmless leftover registry entries. are you having any symptoms of malware? like popups, page redirects etc. does the registry entry you are trying to delete provide any clues?like mention software or anything? echoreply
well it used to redirect me but then i got spyware doctor, all it tells me about this "adware toolbar" is that instead of the comp asking me to install something, this toolbar will automatically install things even if they're harmful.
lets see if a online scan can dig up anything: F-secure scan: http://support.f-secure.com/enu/home/ols.shtml uses Internet Explorer only click on the "start scanning button" near bottom of page. click to accept/install the ActiveX applet "accept" the License Agreement, click "full system scan" Once the download completes,the scan will begin automatically.Download may take awhile The scan will take some time to finish. When the scan completes, click the Automatic cleaning (recommended) button. Click the Show Report button and Copy&Paste the entire report in your next reply. echoreply
file:///C:/DOCUME~1/Patrick/LOCALS~1/Temp/OnlineScanner/ols_report.html i can't believe i had like 6 viruses, especially ones that none of my scanners picked up. Im going to do a scan right now and see if this "tool bar" pops up again
speaking of viruses, i dont see a resident antivirus app in your log. i see spy sweeper and ad aware. these aren't AV apps. this isnt the online scan report. look in add/remove programs panel for anything like: NewdotNet or NewDotNet domains, uninstall if present. go to start>run and type in--> services.msc,<--in the list of services that comes up look for>>NNServ right click on it and select properties. under the general tab: the path to the .exe should be:C:\Program Files\NewDotNet\nnrun.exe make sure that the service status is: Stopped, if not click the Stop button and the Startup type is: disabled, if not change it to disable click apply, then ok post the reg key you keep trying to delete; start>run type in regedit find the key click on it. at top go to File>Export, name it something with a .txt extension change "save as type" to "text files" post the saved .txt file echoreply
NNserv wasnt there, and NewDotNet wasn't there, and as far as i can tell this is the longest that the tool bar hasnt shown up, so maybe that scan help, but you are right about the av, spysweeper has one on it but i was thinking of getting avg. If the toolbar shows up again ill post, thanks for your help.
