WToolsA.exe

[Cleanup]

Winamp doesn't have a computing/general tech support forum, but I figure that GD has the smartest people around.

Noticed some bad stuff happening on my computer. It's not in my Add/Remove Programs list and I can't delete or end the processes - access is denied. I ran HijackThis. Here's my log.

Cleanup, looks like Germ proved you wrong.

Help! I'M BEING FLAMED

[DJ Egg]

Yup, you've got some nasty malware and browser hijackers there.

I'm the resident HJT log analyzer in the Winamp Tech forum
(I also post at TSG and Computercops.biz forums, as The_Egg).

WinTools is a trojan / hijacker, and appears to be a new variant of the IBIS Toolbar

bridge.dll = WinFavorites / Loud Marketing Flingstone.com browser hijacker

fgiebar.dll = FlashGet BHO hijack.
Did you knowingly install this spyware p.o.s.?

alchem.exe = ClickAlchemy (new Transponder variant)


There's also a few entries there with no info from a google search,
or from any of my usual resource sites, so I'm going to assume they're bad.
If you know for sure that any of the entries I tell you to fix are kosher, then leave "as is".
Namely:
Toolbar: proxy bike shim (peak hold.dll)
[Tick Curb]: PollGreyLong\Safe Mfcd.exe


First, download and install the following programs:
(note, I recommend all of these).

CWShredder (CoolWebSearch Shredder)
Spybot Search & Destroy [direct download]
SpywareBlaster

Additional/optional scan/protection:
Adaware6
SpywareGuard


Now print out this page, and close ALL browser and Explorer windows,
and as many other apps as possible (if not all).


Run CWShredder first.
Note, the download is the executable,
so save it to eg. C:\Program Files\CWShredder -or- Desktop

Click the "Fix" button.
When done, you can now close CWShredder.


Next, go to the Services Control Panel (Control Panel > Admin Tools)
and "stop" the "WinTools For IE Service" (WToolsS.exe)
and then set it to "disabled" (c/o right click > properties)

Open Task Manager
End process for all of:
WToolsA.exe
WSup.exe
(WToolsS.exe should already be disabled)


Now have HJT fix the following entries:
(checkmark them, and click "fix checked")

C:\Program Files\KNOBMA~1\PEAK HOLD.dll (wtf is this?)
C:\Program Files\PollGreyLong\Safe Mfcd.exe (wtf is this?)


Next...

Run Spywareblaster
Install all updates
Protect your system against further attacks
(program usage is straightforward).

You can also add the following c/o Tools > Custom Blocking:
Name = WinTools
CLSID = {87766247-311C-43B4-8499-3D5FEC94A183}


Now run SpybotSD
Check for updates first
Immunize your system
Run the scan
Fix all
Reboot.

If you wish, post a new HJT log when done.


Note to others:
Please do not post HJT logs here.
There's plenty of forums on the net which deal with these issues.

[Cleanup]

Well, I cleaned out some of the stuff. I believe WinTools is gone, and so is the bridge.dll stuffs. But of course, I'm still getting some random pop-ups and decreased performance. So, I'll go through DJ Egg's instructions, and see how I do.

For fun, here's my current HJT log.

Notably, I see msn and netscape search stuff, and Flashget. I never knew Flashget was linked to adware.

[Edit:]

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA...

I don't post in GD much. I started that What Do You Do crap, but that was it. I think I was either being a kiss-ass or sarcastic.

[InvisableMan]

egg for president of tech support.

oh wait. he already is now that sawg is gone.

[DJ Egg]

Yeah, you've still got a few things left (Flashget, alchemy, the hosts hijackers, and the DPF's).

Follow my instructions implicitly


After you've got rid of all the evil crap from above,
if decreased performance is still an issue, although they're not malware,
you can disable the following (useless?) startup items:

O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [QuickTime Task] "C:\Program Files\QuickTime\qttask.exe" -atboottime

O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [MSConfig] C:\WINDOWS\PCHealth\HelpCtr\Binaries\MSConfig.exe /auto

O4 - HKCU\..\Run: [ctfmon.exe] C:\WINDOWS\System32\ctfmon.exe

MS Japanese/Oriental Language Support
O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [IMJPMIG8.1] C:\WINDOWS\IME\imjp8_1\IMJPMIG.EXE /Spoil /RemAdvDef /Migration32
O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [PHIME2002ASync] C:\WINDOWS\System32\IME\TINTLGNT\TINTSETP.EXE /SYNC
O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [PHIME2002A] C:\WINDOWS\System32\IME\TINTLGNT\TINTSETP.EXE /IMEName

Hopefully you've not got the msconfig virus there.
There has been known to be a virus which replaces the standard msconfig.
You'll know for sure if you go to start -> run -> msconfig
and no msconfig window appears.

Also, good luck with disabling msoffice language bar ctfmon.exe and QuickTime qttask.exe,
because they have a nasty habit of auto re-enabling themselves.
Both are known resource hoggers.

I used SpybotSD before... I didn't really figure it did anything.. hopefully, this time, it works.

As long as I have it installed, it'll prevent known spyware from installing on my computer?

Edit:

Also, what's C:\WINDOWS\System32\BRMFRSMG.EXE?

And I can't seem to get rid of the netscape/msn/ieautosearch lines.

[Cleanup]

I'm still getting pop-ups - ones I've gotten before. Is there anything else suspicious in my log? BRMFRSMG.EXE is a thing for my printer.

[Cleanup]

Wow, um, as soon as I closed my browser, three shortcuts appeared on my desktop: Instant Love Alert, Free Games - Cash Prizes, and Discount Travel Specials. I've seen the last one before, but I thought I removed it.

This isn't cool.

[ElChevelle]

EDIT your posts, rather than post multiple times at once.

[ElChevelle]

Please

[Cleanup]

Hehe. It's easier to use the quick reply than click edit.

[Edit:] Note, those three shortcuts I just deleted linked to webpages, nothing on my computer. But something in my computer must be creating them.

[ElChevelle]

Easy and right are two different thingees.

[Omega X]

EWW!!
"C:\WINDOWS\Downloaded Program Files\bridge.dll"

Had that slip into my comp last month. Spybot S&D killed that with a startup scan.

[Widdykats]

I just ran SpybotSD, which I just dowloaded from here,
thankyouverymuch!
I had downloaded Shareaza and after found about 27 "tracking" things ..Great program! Computer seems a little faster..still trying to find a good p2p that won't confuse me, and is fast......

[Cleanup]

Widdy: You can always get an illegal copy of KaZaA Gold. Yummy.

I'm still getting random pop-ups... Where's DJ and his tech-knowledge?

[Widdykats]

(out of side of mouth)... pm me with that please
DJ is probably in tech forum or asleep or out shopping
or in the backyard or...what?
