Please continue to login into Michael's account. It does make a difference yes.
Clean your Cache and Cookies in IE:
Go to Control Panel > Internet Options > General tab.
Click the "Delete Cookies" button and then the "Delete Files" button next to it.
When prompted, place a check in: "Delete all offline content", click OK.
Clean other Temporary files + Recycle bin
Go to start > run and type: cleanmgr and click ok.
Let it scan your system for files to remove.
Make sure Temporary Files, Temporary Internet Files, and Recycle Bin are the only things checked.
Press OK to remove them.
========
Now open the SmitfraudFix folder on Michael's desktop and double-click smitfraudfix.cmd
Select option #2 - "Clean" by typing 2 and pressing "Enter" to delete the infected files.
You will then receive the following prompt:
"Registry cleaning - Do you want to clean the registry ? (y/n)"
Type Y for yes and press "Enter" to remove the Desktop background and clean the associated registry keys for this infection.
The tool will then check if the file wininet.dll is infected.
You may be prompted to replace the infected file with another copy from your machine (if found):
"Replace infected file ? (y/n)"
Type Y for yes and press "Enter" to restore a clean copy of the file on your machine.
Restart your computer to complete the removal process.
(A log file of the fix can be found at the root of your system drive, usually at C:\rapport.txt)
=========
Then update Ewido Anti-Spyware with the latest definitions.
Restart into Safe Mode (Michael's account) and run a full system scan with Ewido. Quarantine everything found and save the log file for posting.
=========
Post C:\rapport.txt and the Ewido results in your next reply please.0 -
Did all the above and seems to have worked fine- ewido log showed a couple of tracking cookies only. ( It says no action taken but I did get rid after copying the report).
However... I did a Panda scan after all that ( from Michael's account ) and have got two completely new things :mad: - a tool and a dialer. Could you suggest how they might have got in? I have highlighted them in bold on the scan results below. ( Edited to add - when I did a panda scan on my account, it did not have these on them )
The only things I can think of are
a) After keeping getting prompts I decided to allow access to Skype, but another message from McAfee flashed up this morning on my account saying spooler subsystem app had changed ( C:\WINDOWS\system32\spoolsv.exe ) which I ignored - it hasn't come up again. Also on another account a McAfee welcome window is showing everytime the account is opened, saying to click it as part of the final set up - we've had MacAfee for ages and it has never done this before. Is this all anything to do with the new things or am I just getting concerned about nothing here?
b) My son watched a short video on his local football team's official website ( but didn't involve downloading anything else and he has done this lots of times before )
Here are the reports:

They're only orphaned registry keys by the looks of it.
RIGHT-CLICK HERE and choose "Save Target as". Save the reg file (Rosy.reg) to your desktop.
Then double-click Rosy.reg and confirm you wish to merge the contents with your registry when prompted.
That will delete the two registry keys for you.
You can then delete these two manually as well:
c:\windows\hh.ico <--file
c:\windows\180Solutions <--folder
The spoolsv.exe message is in a legitimate location. There's a fair bit on google about similar problems so can I suggest you google "spooler subsystem app has changed" (with quotes) or similar phrases and work your way through the myriad of possibilities. Either way, I don't think it's connected to the malware problems.0 -
Have done this and the hh.ico and 180 solutions have been deleted. The Panda scan won't work for me tonight to confirm but everything else on the PC says all is fine!
I feel like I have finished a marathon! Thank you to all who have helped me out and especially a huge thanks to Alfonso :T :T :T - Alfonso, your explanations were spot on, really clear and easy to follow, and I really felt encouraged to keep going to the end. You are clearly extremely knowledgeable which makes your patience with me even more remarkable, given your obvious level of expertise. I never once got the feeling that I was being a nuisance though this must have taken hours of your time. I had visions of having to reformat everything at the start of this and now my PC has never been so clean - and I have a sense of achievement at having done this myself ( obviously would have been impossible without the huge input I have had from here though!! )
Thank you again:j0 -
You're very welcome, I'm glad everything is looking....well...rosey again!
Most of us who help out with malware problems started with an infection of our own. I dare say we had a similar level of experience with computers as yourself as well when we started. It's a certainly a great way to learn about computers.
Everything appears to be in order so I guess we can wrap things up for the time being. Just give me a shout if the problems return.
In the meantime, please follow these simple steps to keep yourself safe and secure in the future.
Re-Hide your System Files
Please rehide your hidden system files and folders by reversing the steps here.
Keep Sun Java Updated
