    Something interesting: on the desktop there is a shortcut for a program called"Ad-Watch". It has a shield for a logo and whnever I sut down XP the box where you choose Shutdown or Restart the same shield is over the Shutdown option. I went into control panel to remove this program and it isn't there. I started to delete the shortcut and was notified it would only delete the shortcut but not the program and was instructed to go into Add\Remove programs in control panel to remove it but as I said it isn't there

    Hi blueduke,

    Yeah, you got a Trojan.

    I am at work and limited on what I can do on this computer….

    Download and run SDFix.exe (google it)

    Then post a log from sdfix.. Your HJT log really doesn’t show this Trojan.

    The Ad-Watch is part of the Newer AdAware.. I never use it myself.

    Give SDFix a go and see what it does..

    Hey blueduke,

    Now that I’m home I’ll repost…

    Download SDFix and save it to your Desktop.
    • Run the SDFix.exe by double clicking on it.
    • Allow it to install into the default location which is normally c:\SDFix

    Reboot your computer in "Safe Mode" using the F8 method. To do this, restart your computer and after hearing your computer beep once during startup (but before the Windows icon appears) press the F8 key repeatedly. A menu will appear with several options. Use the arrow keys to navigate and select the option to run Windows in "Safe Mode".

    • When you have booted into safe mode, open the C:\SDFix folder and double click RunThis.bat to start the script.
    • Type Y to begin the cleanup process.
    • It will remove any Trojan Services or Registry entries found and then prompt you to press any key to Reboot.
    • Press any Key and it will restart the PC.
    • When the PC restarts the Fixtool will run again and complete the removal process then display Finished, press any key to end the script and load your desktop icons.
    • Once the desktop icons load the SDFix report will open on screen and also save into the SDFix folder as Report.txt.
    • Attach the Report.txt file to your next message.

    Rerun SuperAntiSpyware in the Safe Mode and post the log along with Report.txt.

    Hey 2oldgeek, just wanted to post some ideas and advice. Hope that's not interrupting anything :)

    Hi blueduke. It seems that you have one of those newer rogue antimalware program. This might render some older removal tools useless, but it's worth a try anyways.

    It will seem that you will not be able to boot into safe mode. Try it anyways. If it works, proceed with all of the scans mentioned below in safe mode. If not, normal mode will be just fine.

    First, download Smitfraudfix and run it. Post a log here.

    Secondly, follow Ltangel's instructions on downloading and running Combofix in this thread: http://forums.afterdawn.com/thread_view.cfm/639221 Post the log here.

    Third, download A-squared Free. Update it, and scan your computer with it. Do not remove anything, only post the scan log here.

    Best Regards :D

    Hey cdavfrew, normally when I get advice, it Costs me. LOL
    The ideas run in the same channel as mine..

    blueduke, please do what cdavfrew suggested and describe your symptoms a little more so we may be able to pin it down.. Thanks

    Hang in there, blueduke… This too shall pass.

    Quick update:

    The "Warning! Spyware Detected On Your Computer....." box is off my desktop.

    Went ahead and quarantined the items found in the asquareed scan. Haven't deleted them yet. Just waiting on further instructions. 2oldGeek and cdavfrew. I thank you so much for your patience as well as your suggestions

    Hey blueduke,

    Just saw your post as I was about to head out for work. Probably won’t get a chance to look at it until Sunday. Maybe cdavfrew will be by later…

    I think maybe you’ve made a dent in it,, hehe

    Later,
    2OG

    Hey blueduke.

    I only managed a very quick look over your logs. It seems that we have indeed put a dent in your malware, but A-squared also detected a whole lot of legitimate stuff on your computer, which was why I recommended not removing anything for fear of it being legitimate and safe. Please look over the log, and restore anything you know is safe. Post what you have restored here. I do not have the time to look over it carefully, so you have to do that yourself.

    I will also recommend posting the contents of C:\Windows\system32\tmp.reg. Open it in Notepad, and paste the contents here. Also, what is C:\Windows\system32\phclrej0ep6p.bmp? Is a picture you know about? If not, delete it.

    Best Regards :D

    Edit: Now I'm back. Let's have a look at that a2 log of yours. Please note not to remove anything, only restore what I tell you to and leave the rest in quarantine. Also, if I tell you to check it on www.virustotal.com, please post the results here first before taking the action necessary.

    This is Kazaa, which is generally known as one of the more "bad" p2p clients, and is a program definitely needed to be removed. Please uninstall Kazaa from your computer if it is there. Also leave this entry in the quarantine.
    Key: HKEY_USERS\S-1-5-21-2085937159-2599583352-3907660362-1005\software\kazaa detected: Trace.Registry.KaZaA

    This is The Weather Channel FW. If you know and use this program, ignore these entries.

    DivoCodec is known as malware posing as a video codec. Please leave these entries in the quarantine, and restore them only if you experience any problems with video files. Also, uninstall DivoCodec from your computer.
    Value: HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Media Type\Extensions\.avi --> Source Filter detected: Trace.Registry.DivoCodec
    Value: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Classes\Media Type\Extensions\.avi --> Source Filter detected: Trace.Registry.DivoCodec

    While researching both ErrorSmart and RegistrySmart, I receive very conflicting results. It is advisable to leave these entries in the quarantine unless you know and use ErrorSmart and RegistrySmart. Please check on www.virustotal.com on whether or not it is detected as malware, and uninstall both these programs if it is. Also, it is not recommended to run registry cleaners, which both of these programs are, because it has no noticeable benefit on the system and has a great possibility of even crashing the system when used wrongly.

    Also, please remove the registry entry [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\software\microsoft\shared tools\msconfig\startupreg\AntiSpyware] using regedit.

    Hey blueduke,

    Well looks like cdavfrew got to you first.. I’m fairly new to A-Squared so it’s taking me longer…. Lol
    Just do what he says and I think you’ll see a difference…….

    Cdavfrew, I’ll send you a copy of my A-Squared report for your analysis… I think I have one line detected and it’s a game from e-machine he he

    cdavfrew............did all you suggested but have some questions:

    1. I do I uninstall Divocodec? Can't find it in add\remove programs (I'm not very computer savvy which by now you and 2oldgeek know is obvious)

    2. Did a search for the file C:\Windows32\phclrej0cp6p.bmp and can't find it. I have no clue what this picture would be

    3. Tried removing the file through regedit you suggested (HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\software\microsoft\shared tools\msconfig\startupreg\AntiSpyware) but keep getting this error:
    application failed to initialize properly (0xc0000005) click ok to terminate application. Have I messed up my registry?

    4. How do I get the time and date in lower right of screen to display time normally? It's currently in military time and tried to change it back via control panel but when I click "Apply" after changes it still will not change.

    Thanks again for all the time you two guys have spent helping me

    Almost forgot:

    Here's the contents of the file you wanted me to copy in notepad (C:\Windows\system32\tmp.reg):

    Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

    [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\software\microsoft\windows\currentversion\run]
    "Support audio cool poll"="C:\\Documents and Settings\\All Users\\Application Data\\INTERNET SPAM SUPPORT AUDIO\\dvd rect.exe"
    "QuickTime Task"="\"C:\\Program Files\\QuickTime\\qttask.exe\" -atboottime"

    "ccApp"="\"C:\\Program Files\\Common Files\\Symantec Shared\\ccApp.exe\""
    "osCheck"="\"C:\\Program Files\\Norton AntiVirus\\osCheck.exe\""
