about:blank possible hijack attempt?

Acidburn942:

Glad to hear problem is resolved. Thanks for posting back.

 

hmmmmm i dont think its all over yet....
theres still sometimes when i click on links they turn into malicious porno links..

can't find what it is.

 

Suggest you run dllcompare and post a new HJT log, as suggested by Lonny above.

 

i've ran dllcompare and rescanned all the things in the bottom box..


theres nothing there now in the bottom box when i "runlocate.com" it now so heres my hijack this log.

We would need to see the entire log, including the header info at the top

there...

i heard that winln is some adware/worm thingy...
should i delete it... and if yes ... how?

 

I have attached a text file which, if copied to notepad and saved as RemoveStartPage.reg, with All Files (*.*) selected as the file type, then merged into the registry when instructed below, will remove the entries placed there by the Trojan.Win32.StartPage.is hijacker/BHO.

Scan again with HijackThis and place a check next to the following entries. Close ALL other windows and click fix. The 09 entries show no file present which means they shouldn't be functional (buttons on the toolbar and menu items in IE), but sometimes are not reported properly. If you use them, check for functionality and omit them from fixing if they work. The 04's in green are optional but not needed at startup.

Disable System Restore

Go to start>run and type msconfig, hit enter. On the General tab click the advanced button. Check the box to 'enable start menu' and OK out. Restart and choose safe mode.

Now in safe mode, you will need to show hidden files and folders, as well as system files.

Open C:\Windows and delete the files madopew.dll and WINLN.EXE if present.

Open C:\Windows\system32 and delete the files if present.
akleaa.dll
bcfjp.dll
blbff.dll
cenbna.dll
clnfg.dll
dnnlk.dll
enijbaa.dll
fikol.dll
hllo.dll
imm.dll
jfcbjp.dll
jfdjgaa.dll
lgif.dll
lnhf.dll
nld.dll
ohnl.dll
pbm.dll

Open C:\Program Files and delete the folder Wild Tangent if present.

Open C:\Temp if present, select all and delete.

Open C:\Windows\Temp, select all and delete.

Open C:\Documents and Settings\username\Local Settings\temp, select all and delete. Do this for all usernames.

Double click the RemoveStartPage.reg file and click yes to merge it to the registry.

Open My Computer and right click Local Disk C:, then choose disk cleanup. Check all boxes and click OK.

Uncheck the box to 'enable start menu' in msconfig and OK out.

Reboot back into Windows and scan your PC with RAV. If any files are infected, click the report button then copy and paste it here, along with a new HijackThis log.

 

Check Config in HJT!

Hello. just a side note I've removed browser hijacks on 2 machines with the help of these guys.
One thing I noticed that has not been discussed or noticed by others is that if you are infected with the about:blank hijack, I believe it has been altered to recognize the presence of Hijack This. It actually changes the default home, search and assistant pages to itself (about:blank). So when you select fix it just replaces itself with itself. Check the config section before fixing.
Anyone else seen this?
Dan

 

Interesting theory Dan, but can't say I have noticed it happening. As long as the 014..IEreset.inf hasn't been altered, the original windows settings can be reset through IE Options>Programs tab>reset web settings button, after removing the CWS infection.

 

I've done all ur steps.

madopew and winln werent there

and neither were any of those of the .dll files you stated were found on my comp.

and when i use the RAVantivirus i get these two:

C:\\ WINDOWS\podnl1.exe "“ TrojanDownloader: Win32/Small.IL -> suspicious
C:\\ WINDOWS\SYSTEM\124511.exe "“ Tool: **** Dialer.BP -> Infected

and one more about java but i couldnt write it down cos the computer crashes and the blue screen displays saying:


File Name: NAVAP (02) + 0001982C Error :0E : 0028 : C00E8850

then another blue screen appears after u press enter trying to renter windows then u press any key or enter agen and the internet explorer windows is gone with the anti virus..

what to do?

Fix the following entry with HJT.

O4 - HKCU\..\Run: [LDM] C:\Program Files\Logitech\Desktop Messenger\8876480\Program\BackWeb-8876480.exe

Once again disable system restore and reboot to safe mode, then delete those two files found by RAV.

C:\\ WINDOWS\podnl1.exe
C:\\ WINDOWS\SYSTEM\124511.exe

Open the control panel and locate the Java Plug-in. Open and click the cache tab, then the clear button. Check the version of Java you have installed too. The most recent is JRE 1.4.2_06......Update it at the Sun Java website when back in Windows if needed.

Run disk cleanup again and reboot back into Windows. Scan with RAV again and let us know the results.

 

theres still the problem i can never finish the virus scans on RAVantivirus.

 

Sounds as though your onboard AV (Norton) may be conflicting with RAV. Unusual but not unheard of. Try disabling Norton just before scanning with RAV, or try another online scanner.
