Brave Sentry + various

[Spraypainsos]

I did this immediately after installing Spy Sweeper and Spyware Doctor. For the time being I disabled them after taking this log.

Hello, visitor!

The Hijack This log analyzer has analyzed your log. Please take a closer look on the results.

Your system seems to be infected with malicious parasites. Please follow the steps below in order to eliminate the infection and clean up your computer.

1.   Download the Pocket KillBox utility. You will need it later to delete parasite-related files and folders.
2. Use HijackThis to fix the following entries:

O20 - Winlogon Notify: artm_newreg - C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Documents\Settings\artm_new.dll
O20 - Winlogon Notify: polymorphreg - C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Documents\Settings\polymorph.dll

3. The following entries are not malicious, but some of them are not used anymore. You may use HijackThis to fix a few of them. However, please keep in mind that some of the entries marked as Questionable or Not Needed are fully legitimate and might be required by installed software to work properly, while some others might be related to certain parasites. It is up to you to decide whether you need any of them, or not.

4. Now restart your system in Safe Mode. This step is very important!
5.   Use the Pocket KillBox utility to delete the following files:

C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Documents\Settings\artm_new.dll
C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Documents\Settings\polymorph.dll


The following files and Windows registry entries are marked as "unknown". Currently, the HijackThis Log Analyzer cannot provide required information on these items. The files and entries in the list below can be both malicious and fully legitimate. Because of this, please do not take any action! Wait for the forum responders or other forum users to provide you with necessary details and further instructions.
C:\WINDOWS\inet20026\schedule.exe

O20 - Winlogon Notify: winsys2freg - C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Documents\Settings\winsys2f.dll
After going through all the steps, run another HijackThis scan and post a fresh log to the HijackThis analyzer. It is possible that some parasites your system was infected with were not removed completely and may restore themselves later.

Thank you for using the 2-Spyware.com HijackThis log analyzer!

Fixing the 2 entries with HJT was futile as they came back automatically. I tried killbox on the two mentioned files in safe mode and received "This file could not be deleted" for both.

I'll keep an eye on the thread, I'm probably missing something obvious as far as the file deletion goes.

[Spraypainsos]

I tried a "delete upon reboot" and both files were successfully deleted. I then successfully fixed the two entries. Here is an updated log:

Well, I hate to post yet again but I'll update the log. I spent a few hours using a combination of programs, manual methods, and of course safe mode to get rid of as much as possible.

I might go as far as saying that I'm clean now. The Brave Sentry fake warning desktop background is gone and my internet works fine. Computer is running very fast in comparison and my scans for viruses and spyware are coming up empty now.

Hi Spraypainsos.

Sorry it took me so long :oops:. Thank you for your patience!

You are still infected. Please follow these steps:

1. Download Pocket KillBox or KillBox utility.

2. Use HijackThis to fix the following entries:
R3 - Default URLSearchHook is missing
F2 - REG:system.ini: UserInit=C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM32\Userinit.exe,yveryfi.exe
O4 - HKLM\..\RunOnce: [InstallShieldSetup] C:\PROGRA~1\INSTAL~1\{AD883~1\setup.exe -rebootC:\PROGRA~1\INSTAL~1\{AD883~1\reboot.ini -l0x9
O23 - Service: Scaiedrph - Unknown owner - (no file)

3. Now restart your system in Safe Mode. This step is very important!

4. Once in Safe Mode, use either Pocket KillBox or KillBox to delete the following files:
C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM32\yveryfi.exe
C:\Progra~1\INSTAL~1\{AD883~1\setup.exe

Also, delete the entire folder C:\PROGRA~1\INSTAL~1\{AD883~1

5. After you get done, restart your computer, run new HijackThis scan and post a fresh log here.
