Guest Ebbe Posted May 4, 2008 Posted May 4, 2008 My computer must be infected. New Internet pages starts up continuously with advertizing and in particular urging me to download and install “AntiSpywareSuiteâ€Â. Warning windows with the text “Windows Internet Explorer†at the top of frame, also pop ups asking me: Do you want to install AntiSpywareSuite to scan your PC for malware now? (Recommended) I already have Microsoft malware and spyware protection running along with the latest Symantec antivirus suite. I have also run Lavasoft’s Ad Aware and removed all cookies and removed the latest programs that I have installed, but nothing has helped. I am running Vista Business. Very thankful for any help on this. Quote

Guest Milo Posted May 4, 2008 Posted May 4, 2008 In addition to what engel advised, please do go to the C:\Program Files\ Name of the Application ( there should be an uninstall option write down the names of the application you see within the folder just so you may have a record and search the entire computer if you find the duplicate ( file name / installation date and size ) then and it has no proper file identification then its at your mercy just to make sure go here as well because rougware are tricky application C:\Program Files\Common Files\ ....

Guest Milo Posted May 4, 2008 Posted May 4, 2008 Also just so to add if youre using Internet Explorer 7, An option is to reset everything on IE to detach the add-ons / activex's of that rougeware if there's any from IE. ( Just to avoid any returning courier of the said application). Go to tools>Internet Option>Advanced Tab>Lowest most part just above ok and cancel button is the reset button Milo-SSA "Engel" <Engel@discussions.microsoft.com> wrote in message news:2A4D5659-8E9F-4105-9CBA-0EC16424C6D8@microsoft.com...<span style="color:blue"> > Hello Ebbe, > > Bad news > AntiSpywareSuite = Category Rogue Security Program > > <http://research.sunbelt-software.com/threatdisplay.aspx?name=AntiSpywareSuite&threatid=194595> > > > > Better > Download the Trial version of Superantispyware Pro (SAS) OR the Free > version > : > <http://www.superantispyware.com/supe....html?rid=3132> > > Download the super-anti-spyware program from the above link, install it, > UPDATE it, then scan your computer. > > The best way to scan your computerfor anything like this(spyware or > viruses) > is in Safe Mode. > > Hit F-8 at startup, go into safe mode, scan, remove problem, then start > øºÑÂmªlly. > - -- --- > > Also, try this > <http://wiki.castlecops.com/Malware_Removal_and_Prevention:_Introduction> > > <http://wiki.castlecops.com/Malware_Removal_and_Prevention:_Overview> > > > I hope this post is helpful. > > Let us know how it works ºut. > - -- ----- > > > "Ebbe" wrote: ><span style="color:green"> >> My computer must be infected.

Guest Ebbe Posted May 7, 2008 Posted May 7, 2008 Thank you very much for your help. I have run all the utilities but in the end I am not able to go online. Windows networks diagnostics reports that there is no problem with the computer's network connection. It also indicates that it has local and internet connection. However it is not able to send any submission to Microsoft. I also used Milo's tip to reset Internet Explorer, this helped in one way. Before this, it opened new pages at high speed until the buffer ran over. But all the time without seeming to have any connection with the net. I have also installed BitDefender and even though I have made many scans both with it and some other programs, it still reports that different variations of "Trojan.Vundo" has been blocked. Now and before I installed BitDefender my corparate version of Norton reported that it had been turned off. At restart Vista reports that yayaXRKc.dll and ssqOgHYp.dll can not be found. When I could not get IE to work, I also installed FireFox which worked for a short while, but it has also stopped. Is there a way to reinstall Internet Explorer? Thank you very much for any help on this. "Ebbe" wrote: <span style="color:blue"> > My computer must be infected.
