I still have several executable files running in my task manager and when i close them they just re-open and double themselves. Can some one please help me before i redo my computer from frustration.

Thank you,
Josh

Get autoruns. http://www.sysinternals.com/files/autoruns.zip

You'll find this will be useful in catching morphers. Under:
HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Winlogon\Notify
You will catch the dll's. This will also let you jump to the registry key that is associated with the morpher.

Try this out.

Thanks I will try it and see.

That other advice you were given by tchicken was referencing the possibiliy of your having the L2M pest. We use a different utility to discover that. I see no sign that you do have L2M. But if you want to have a look we can.

Download VX2Finder from this link:
http://tools.zerosrealm.com/VX2Finder.exe

Run Vx2Finder click on the *click to find VX2.BetterInternet* button. Then click *make log*.

Copy and paste the contents of the log into your next reply here.

This is a Peper Trojan leftover. You can fix it. The trojan is now gone.

Where were these uncleanable files found? In System Restore? If so, we can and should flush the restore points to remove them. Let me know.

Mosaic1 · Posted: Mon May 31, 2004 10:26 pm Post subject:

Go to Windows Update and scan. It will include the lateset Virtual Machine if you do not have it already. You have SP1 and may already have it.

To find out what you do have installed go to Start>Run and type cmd
press enter to bring up a command prompt

In the command prompt window type
jview and press enter.

The first line of the results will include the java version.

Hey Mosaic,
Thank you for all your help. I tried the VX2finder, and it wouldn't let me make a log, i guess cause it is clean. I really don't remeber where the uncleanable files where though. And the jveiw would not work. It said the file not found. o well i believe i have the latest version.

Do you see that message? i got in trouble for making to many post, I can see his point though. I was looking sort of desparate for help.

Thank you very much,
Josh

Mosaic1 · Posted: Wed Jun 02, 2004 12:30 am Post subject:

VX2 should allow a log no matter. What happened when you pressed Make log?

Here's mine, after it opened in notepad.
Log for VX2.BetterInternet File Finder

You do not seem to have the MS Virtual Machine at all.

Are you running Sp1 or Sp1a?

SP1a has no VM included.

We can either have you reinstall the Service pack. OR get an install of the Virtual Machine. This will be older. Then you can go to Windows Update and they will allow you to update the VM. It is important that you do that right away though. The older VM is full of holes and not something to run. But Windows Update will not allow you to install the updated version unless you already the the VM installed.

Or you might consider just installing Sun Java.

Are you talking about that new message at the top of tha page? That is for general information and everyone sees it.

Run the scan again and find out whre the files are. If in System restore then flush the restore points. We would do that after we were finished anyway. I do like to wait to be sure everything is working before flushing them.

To flush the XP system Restore Points.

Go to Start>Run and type msconfig Press enter.

When msconfig opens, click the Launch System Restore Button.
On the next page, click the System Restore Settings Link on the left.

Check the box labeled Turn off System restore.

Reboot. Go back in and Turn System Restore Back on. A new Restore Point will be created.

Well whenever i press the make log button nothing at all happens but in the window it says

Files Found---

Guardian Key--- is called:

User Agent String---

I will run the scan again and get the java file or whatever is needed, i am using windows service pack 1 A.

Thanks
Josh

Mahsoggies · Sergeant Joined: Dec 29, 2003 Posts: 75 Location: USA

Oh and which should i do, get the old VM or Java SUN?

Josh

Mosaic1 · Posted: Wed Jun 02, 2004 6:56 pm Post subject:

That's why no java. They removed it in SP1a so you won't have it.

what do you want to do? Get the more secure Sun Java and install? Or go for the MS java?

Mosaic1 · Posted: Wed Jun 02, 2004 7:53 pm Post subject:

In order to get the latest MS VM you have to have the old one installed. Then you go to Windows Update and they will allow you to upgrade.

You have to do that right away because the old version is loaded with security risks. It is getting more and more difficult to find a safe place to download the old MS VM too. I would have to search for one and couldn't say 100% that it was safe. MS no longer has it available.

Or just go over to Sun and get theirs.

Here's the link to SUN:
http://java.com/en/index.jsp

Test your Notepad.exe to be sure it is ok. Right click on Notepad.exe and choose properties. Be sure it is the Microsoft file.

You should have two copies. One in the Windows Folder and another in System32.
