elgreco94 0 Posted February 15, 2012 Author Report Share Posted February 15, 2012 Hi, Thank you for that. I have run combofix and here is the file you requested. Link to post Share on other sites
elgreco94 0 Posted February 15, 2012 Author Report Share Posted February 15, 2012 Hi, me again, so sorry just running the scan again after a reboot and it still is finding the same 36 traces. Link to post Share on other sites
GT500 854 Posted February 15, 2012 Report Share Posted February 15, 2012 That log looks pretty good. Lets get a second opinion with an online virus scan. Please run an online virus scan through ESET by following the steps below: Turn off your anti-virus software. Click on this link. Click on the ESET Online Scanner button. Put a check in the box that says YES, I accept the Terms of Use. Click the 'Start' button just to the right of the checkbox. Uncheck the box that says Remove found threats (this is very important). Click on Advanced settings. Put a check in the box that says Scan for potentially unsafe applications. Verify that Scan for potentially unwanted applications is also checked. Verify that Enable Anti-Stealth technology is also checked. Click the Start button in the lower-right corner of the page, and it will begin downloading it's database, and then it will start scanning. When the scan is done, if it shows a screen that says Threats found!, then click List of found threats, and then click Export to text file... (if nothing was found, then just let me know that no threats were found). Save that text file on your desktop, and then attach it to a reply (using the More Reply Options button in the lower-right corner of this forum topic) for me. Close the ESET online scan. I will take a look at the log, and let you know if anything needs removed. Link to post Share on other sites
elgreco94 0 Posted February 16, 2012 Author Report Share Posted February 16, 2012 Hi no threats were found. This is becoming a bit of bore for you I bet. Regards Link to post Share on other sites
elgreco94 0 Posted February 16, 2012 Author Report Share Posted February 16, 2012 Hi should I be trying anything else? Link to post Share on other sites
GT500 854 Posted February 16, 2012 Report Share Posted February 16, 2012 Are you not able to remove those traces that are found with Emsisoft Anti-Malware, or do they keep reappearing after you remove them? Link to post Share on other sites
elgreco94 0 Posted February 16, 2012 Author Report Share Posted February 16, 2012 They have been removed or quarantined over and over but at each scan they are back again. When I look at the locations listed in the scan and then using microsoft search to find them, it says there is no such folder. So I am at a loss to explain why they keep recurring. Do you think I need to reinstall the program? Regards Link to post Share on other sites
elgreco94 0 Posted February 18, 2012 Author Report Share Posted February 18, 2012 Hello am I to do anything else? Link to post Share on other sites
elgreco94 0 Posted February 19, 2012 Author Report Share Posted February 19, 2012 Hi I have just done a scan after the last update and nothing was found. Eureka! Thank you. Link to post Share on other sites
elgreco94 0 Posted February 20, 2012 Author Report Share Posted February 20, 2012 Sorry, I spoke to soon. It did the scan todya and it's back again. Please advise. Link to post Share on other sites
GT500 854 Posted February 20, 2012 Report Share Posted February 20, 2012 Lets see if ComboFix can take care of this: Turn off your Anti-Virus software. Click your Start button, go to All Programs (or just Programs on Vista and Windows 7), go to Accessories, and then open Notepad. Please copy and paste the contents of the box below into Notepad (here is a link to instructions if you do not know how to copy and paste):KillAll:: Folder:: c:\documents and settings\all users\start menu\programs\PopCap Games Registry:: [-HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Thinking Thing Software] Save this as a Text Document named CFScript in the same location as ComboFix (which should be on your desktop). Close Notepad and verify that the CFScript file is saved on your desktop. Referring to the animated picture below, click the left mouse button on top of the CFScript icon on your desktop, then holding the mouse button down drag the CFScript icon on your desktop onto the ComboFix icon, and then drop it (let go of the mouse button) on top of the ComboFix icon: When finished, it will display a new log in Notepad. Please attach that log to a reply the same way you did before. If you prefer, you can save the log on your desktop to make it easier to find. Link to post Share on other sites
elgreco94 0 Posted February 20, 2012 Author Report Share Posted February 20, 2012 Hi had a bit of trouble with this. First it couldn't access a file for iexplore.exe and I had to ignore for it carry on. It went on extracting until it came to doing Outfolders and then it jammed. When I tried to do it again it says the program is out of date and I need to download again. Link to post Share on other sites
GT500 854 Posted February 20, 2012 Report Share Posted February 20, 2012 Lets just use OTL then. Here's a script that should tell OTL to delete the detected items (if you need to, you may download OTL from this link). Please copy the contents of the following CODE box, and in OTL under the Custom Scans/Fixes box at the bottom, paste in what you just copied from the following CODE box::Files c:\documents and settings\all users\start menu\programs\PopCap Games :Reg [-HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Thinking Thing Software] Then click the Run Fix button at the top. Let the program run unhindered, restart your computer when it is done (it may automatically restart your computer on its own). After your computer has restarted, please open OTL again and click the Quick Scan button. Attach the log it produces in your next reply (just the OTL log, as I don't need to see the Extras log again).

GT500 854 Posted February 21, 2012 Report Share Posted February 21, 2012 OK, let me know if those detections come back. Assuming that they don't come back, here's some final instructions for you: 1. Make Sure Java is Updated: Click on the Start button. Click on Control Panel . Click Add or Remove Programs . Look for Java in the list (should be alphabetical), and uninstall all versions of Java that you find listed. Click on this link and download and install the latest Java (the Windows Online download will be faster). 2. Make Sure Adobe Flash is Updated: Click on this link and download the latest version of Adobe Flash Player for your web browser. You will need to close your web browser when installing Flash. 3. Make Sure Your Computer Has The Latest Windows Updates: Click on the Start button. Go to All Programs . Click on Windows Update . If you have never run Windows Update, then it will probably need to install an ActiveX control and update the Windows Update software before it can continue, so make sure you keep an eye out for that pale-yellow bar that pops up at the top of the page when Windows Update needs to install a new component, and click on the yellow bar and select to allow it. Once it is loaded, click on the Express button. It will check for available updates, and once it is done you can click the Install Updates button. It may ask you to accept a license agreement before it installs, so make sure you say Yes . When it is done installing updates, it may ask you to restart your computer, so close anything you are working on and allow it to restart. Note that the update process can take a while, and you may need to run it several times before all of the updates get installed. 4. Web Of Trust Extension: While this is not a requirement, I highly recommend that you click this link and check out the Web Of Trust extension for your web browser. It will add an extra layer of protection to your web browsing for free, and it is especially helpful when doing searches on Google, Yahoo!, Bing, etc. as it will point out what sites are considered trustworthy and what sites are not by drawing a colored circle to the right of each search result. Green means trusted, red means not trusted, yellow is in between, and white means it is not in Web Of Trust's database. 5. Empty The System Restore: Click on the Start button. Right-click on My Computer Select Properties from the list. In the window that pops up, click on the System Restore tab. Click the check box to Turn off System Restore . Click the Apply button at the bottom-right, and answer Yes to the question. Depending on how much data is saved in the System Restore, it could take more than a few minutes to empty it. Click the check box to Turn off System Restore again and click OK to turn the System Restore back on. Click on the Start button again. Go to All Programs . Go to Accessories . Go to System Tools . Click on System Restore . Select Create a restore point on the right, and click Next at the bottom. Enter a description for the restore point, and click Create . Click Close to finish the process.
