    PalTalk is harmless - it is chat software. If you use it or loaded it I suggest you leave it, if not you can bin it.

    I am just going out for the evening - will check back on my return.

    reknaw--Forgive me, I did not read your Post#16 thoroughly. BitDefender does say it has deleted atmclk.exe.
    Did you reboot after that?
    It could be that the latest BitDefender scans are finding atmclk.exe in their own delete file.

    Yes, delete those cookies - and see my comment below re. cookies.

    I have just noticed - should have seen it before :( , that you are running an old version of HJT 1.98.0 - the latest is 1.99.1 available through Quicklinks in my signature. Please download this and scan again and post a fresh log - there area couple of lines I think need fixing.

    Do you have a Home Page set in Internet Explorer?

    These two lines should be fixed ....

    R0 - HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main,Local Page =
    R0 - HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main,Local Page =

    Apart from that your log looks OK, but please run the scan with v1.99.1.

    You say that the computer is sluggish - I noticed from the Ewido report
    . If this is the case no wonder it is slow and I wonder how many temporary internet files you are holding. I will suggest a good cleanout after I have seen the next HJT log, but in the meantime give me this information, please ....

    Tools > Internet Options > Temporary Internet Files > Settings - how much disk space is allocated - in Mb?

    Then hit View Files - how many objects listed in the status bar at the bottom? If the status bar is not showing go View & check status bar.

    Hi Pete. Think you mis-read the the way I posted the cookie files. I wrote Cookies Scanned - 91.... didn't think I had 40736 that was traces scanned :)

    Disk Space in Mb = 10 View files = 308

    I have to go into work this morning (GMT-5 hours) and will try and do the rest there and post the HTJ (new version) then

    Pete... I haven't deleted anything yet but managed to download the newer HJT and ran it for you to view the results... and yes I do have an home page set up on Internet (www.kenallen.ca)

    ive been infected with atmclk.exe aswell ive done a google search on it
    (that was also how i found out about this forum)
    and at the top of the list was a program called prevx1
    and this can remove it or at least block it
    http://fileinfo.prevx.com/QQe6a218715669-ATMC14789543/ATMCLK.EXE.html
    thats a link to its data base which gives you details about atmclk.exe
    and there is a link to download the software from there
    i also get lots of popups trying to get me to download some
    antivirus software and it has a warning sign in the taskbar.

    Hope this helps
    Tristan

    EST Domains claims no responsibility for the content and claims they are only the regestrant. What they are saying is that they will take the money from these people every time they bill them, even though they dont agree with what they are doing.

    The FBI has told me that there is not much they can do since the owner is over-seas.

    So, for now, I am looking into other avenues of ways to nail them. I seem to be the only one who is outraged enough to try and do soemthing about these fools. Their 3+ year reign of terror is about to end.

    What you can expect:

    Pop-Ups for dating sights
    Key Loggers that go through so many hops you cant track em past Seattle
    Domain Registries that change every month, and sometimes every day
    Anoying warnings that your system is infected
    Comprimised data throughout your system, etc.
    Only way I was able to get rid of it was using Prevx1, available for a free trial, just google it.

    Besides that, I welcome any and all info you have about this group in hopes that I or my Attorneys might be able to find an angle to get em here in the US and bring em to justice. Isn't installing files on a computer without consent still illegal?

    i also found this on a site

    SpyAxe replacement: SpyFalcon

    The name SpyAxe, top rogue anti-spsyware app of 2005, brings up anger and frustration for its many victims but now SpyFalcon has burst on the scene looking like a replacement for SpyAxe. SpyFalcon, just like SpyAxe, is being installed along with trojans through exploits. A screenshot can be seen here at SunbeltBLOG. Nick's Computer Security blog has instructions for ridding your computer of SpyFalcon in case you landed here looking for help with it.

    The domain whois shows:

    ns3.antispydns.biz

    I wouldn't be surprised if the information is false. The IP address 195.255.176.79 belongs to Netcathost in the Ukraine and hosts 2 other domains spyfalconupdate.com and updateyourwindows.com (links to whois) and the IP address is blacklisted by spamhaus.

    Hope we can get something over this guy and get him locked up

    Supposed anti-spyware program SpyAxe is installed by a trojan named zlob.cy (aka Trojan-Downloader.Win32.Zlob) according to F-Secure. SpyAxe showed up on the scene about two months ago and has earned quite a name for itself. SpyAxe manages to appear on users' desktops without any notice or consent, as seen here, with a warning that your computer is infected with spyware. F-Secure says:

    SpyAxe is nice enough to detect the Trojan that downloads it, but it won't disinfect it unless you pay for a SpyAxe license, $49.50 U.S. (plus a nonimal $2.95 transaction fee). I wouldn't dare pay for a licensed copy to verify that removal is actually done, but I have my doubts.

    F-Secure says this infection is growing rapidly:

    […] there seems to have recently been a huge spike in the distribution of Zlob. We found a way to see how many unique registration IDs have been handed out by the site Zlob registers with. Most of the day, there seemed to be about 1,000 new infections per hour, but now that the U.S. is waking up & powering on their computers, that number has risen to about 2,500 infections per hour.

    Instructions for removing SpyAxe using a free tool called SmitRem written by anti-spyware community developer noahdfear can be found at bleepingcomputer.com. SmitRem removes the Trojan-Spy.HTML.Smitfraud.c malware infection and its variants, AntivirusGold, PSGuard Spyware Remover, SpySheriff, Spy Trooper, SpyAxe, and Security Toolbar. SmitRem has been downloaded 252,652 times according to the web page, an indication of how widespread this infection is. An example of a HijackThis log with SpyAxe and the Smitfraud infection can be seen here.

    The SpyAxe website has a contacts page. If you've been a victim, consider letting them know how you feel about it. The website says the company is located in New Zealand, but the domain name spyaxe.com is registered to Sun Shine Ltd. with a Seattle address.

    Domain Name: SPYAXE.COM

    Registrant:
    SunShine Ltd
    David Taylor
    187th Ave, 5
    King County
    Seattle
    Washington,98101
    US
    Tel. +206.9543154

    The site's IP address 195.255.176.68 belongs to Netcathosting in the Ukraine, and the domain registrar is ESTdomains, which I believe is closely related to ESThost, a group known to host a large number of CoolWebSearch sites running exploits. ESThost is also closely related to a California ISP/hosting company Atrivo, also known to host a large number of CWS sites. Note the IP is currently blacklisted by Spamhaus. Four other domains reside on that IP address, almanah.biz, nospywaresoft.com, spyaxe.net and spyaxesupport.com. Links go to the whois lookup for the domain, not the domain itself.

    No doubt SpyAxe will earn a top spot on Spyware Confidential's top ten rogue anti-spyware list to be posted soon. See anti-spyware spread by spyware for information on apps very similar to SpyAxe.

    Last time we wrote about a rebrand of SpyAxe called SpywareStrike, this time we alert you to SpyFalcon courtesy of Sunbelt-Software. First, if you think you're infected, read our removal tutorial on the whole SpyAxe issue. And there is an interesting twist... the webhost provider is dishing out the WMF Exploit!

    This domain was registered on 16-Jan-2006 by David Taylor under the guise of SunShine Ltd. It uses the "ANTISPYDNS.BIZ" domain for its DNS traffic. The domain is hosted by NetcatHosting who owns its IP: 195.225.176.79. What is interesting even more about the netblock is this...



    This hosting company has a wmf file available for download listed (do not download this!):

    traff4ppc.biz/parthner3/xpl.wmf

    Guess what, yes you got it... this is the Win32/Exploit.WMF trojan. This webhosting company is hosting some nefarious stuff and should be shut down immediately. Responsible upstream providers ought to shut off the juice for them.

    If you haven't heard about the WMF Exploit, or want to see a full FAQ about it, then read this article. Other sites are hosted at NetcatHosting which I didn't research for this article (although by association I'd be very wary):Last time we wrote about a rebrand of SpyAxe called SpywareStrike, this time we alert you to SpyFalcon courtesy of Sunbelt-Software.

    Hi Pete,
    I thought I'd try running BitDefender on line scan on my Desktop P.C as well. I have not been having any problems with it..... I was amazed that 3 or 4 Trojans showed up and were deleted.

    I've used to always use Norton's AntiVirius until recently switching to AVG on all 3 of my computers. My question now, is if BitDefender is locating Virius that AVG is missing, should I be buying the BitDefender AntiVirus software and using it ?

    What are you using ?

    Thanks again for all you're help - no doubt I'll be be calling on your services again :)
