Hallo:
my computer had a warning sign telling me to update my anti virus. i thought it was something malicious so i ran my scanner.
it found something in the file c:\programmes\video access ActiveXObject\pmsnrr.exe
the antivirus deleted the file and the warning sign dissapeard. however everytime i launch internet explorer the start site goes automatically to http://protectionband.com/

i am sure i´ve got something funny.
i hope you can help me

thanks a lot

Hi pipe30

Please follow these steps:

1. Download Pocket KillBox or KillBox utility.

2. Use HijackThis to fix the following entries:
O2 - BHO: (no name) - {67982BB7-0F95-44C5-92DC-E3AF3DC19D6D} - C:\Programme\Video Access ActiveX Object\isadd.dll
O2 - BHO: (no name) - {7E853D72-626A-48EC-A868-BA8D5E23E045} - (no file)
O20 - Winlogon Notify: WgaLogon - C:\WINDOWS\

3. Then use either Pocket KillBox or KillBox to delete the following file:
C:\Programme\Video Access ActiveX Object\isadd.dll

Also, delete the folder C:\Programme\Video Access ActiveX Object.

Thanks GTO! The problem seems to be resolved!
Can you please give me some tips in order to be protected against such threats?

Thanks again

[GTO]

Hi pipe30

Use reliable anti-spyware and antivirus software and never download suspicious video codecs like Video Access ActiveX again. Download the VideoLAN player. It plays all the popular video formats. You don't need anything else.

[Free antivirus]
