annoying adserver--AdAware SE didn't fix

family member loaded freebuzztv. I removed all programs and ran spybot and AdAware SE. Unclicked Ads still pop in at every page change. I ran hijack this. Here is the log file.

Thanks in advance for helping.

Hello and welcome to WindowsBBS Removing Spyware & Viruses forum.

Looks like you got yourself a LOP infection, easily spotted and removed.


Below you will find my results and recommendations from your HijackThis! log file analysis. Please read ALL instructions carefully BEFORE proceeding.


Before we proceed we need to disable Spybot's TeaTimer. It will interfere with any fixes we make. Disable TeaTimer by doing the following:

• Run Spybot-S&D
• Go to the Mode menu, and make sure Advanced Mode is selected
• On the left hand side, choose Tools -> Resident
• Uncheck Resident TeaTimer and OK any prompts

You can reenable TeaTimer once your system is clean.


Open Hijackthis, select the [Do a system scan only] button and look over the following entries I have listed, check the boxes [] next to them and press the [Fix Checked] button. When you are doing this, make sure you have No IE windows, nor any other browsers open, including this one. Reboot if I have specified below, and post a fresh HijackThis log.

Search for, and delete, if found, the following files/folders:
C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\HOPE BYTE LINK DATE<<<<---this folder
C:\DOCUME~1\Chuck\APPLIC~1\TRAYON~1<<<<---this folder

Reboot post a new HJT log back into this thread please.

 

Thanx for the help I did a system restore to a point I'd setup prior and it seems to have worked.I don't know why I didn't try that first anyway I've restarted several times to make sure it didn't infect the restore folders and it looks good.

 

Very good, glad you got things sorted out.

To further prevent the installation of ad/mal/spyware, DL the apps below, which are just as good the fight against ad/mal/spyware as AdAware & Spybot S&D:

SpywareBlaster
With SpywareBlaster v3.5.1 , just DL, install and check for updates, enable Internet Explorer protection, and your done! I don't recommend using IE restricted sites protection as it's not a very large database. Use IE-SPYADs below.

To avoid known malware infested sites from loading in IE install IESPY ADS.
And MVPS Hosts File will accomplish a similar tactic and provide another layer of protection.

And to prevent unknown applications from being inserted to start up on your machine install WinPatrol v10.0.5.

Another thing I would suggest, is to install SiteAdvisor. It gives sites a few different 'ratings' and while not fool proof, a good additional layer of information about many sites.

Links for tutorials for all the apps I mentioned can be found on my site as well.

Confused about which apps are good or not? Read about Rogue/Approved Anti Security apps

And just because you have security apps installed, they are useless unless updated regularly. Keep track of updates for ALL your security needs here:
Calendar of Updates

Subscribe to update alerts for all the above security apps here.

You can also see my own ongoing security testing with all the above apps proving how securely you can safe with them installed.
