Thank You so much Gecko :)

The error message about isamntr.exe has stopped. The directory Video Access Activex Object and Spylocked are no longer there.

Currently, I am visiting very limited sites viz., yahoo mail, google, yahoo messenger, and google talk. I run a scan whenever the computer is free. However, Zone Alarm did detect two viruses and one tracking cookie yet again.
The viruses detected by Zone Alarm were:
1. not-a-virus:RiskTool.Win32.Reboot.f, for the SmitfraudFix file so I gnored it.
2. Trojan-Downloader.Win32.Zlob.bpn in c:\System Volume Information\_restore{... folder. This is quarantined. I wonder if this was related to the download of SmitFraudFix.

The tracking cookie detected was a new one this time - 2o7.

The spyware detected was Win32.Trojan.Shutdown, for the restart.exe file of SmitFraudFix. As pointed by you that some anti-virus detect this, so I ignored it.

Another funny thing is about the Earthlink toolbar. The program has been un-installed through Add/Remove Programs, but the option is seen under View->Toolbars in the explorer. When this is selected the toolbar does not load. Where and how do I remove the option from the browser because I read that earthlink toolbar is bad.

I really appreciate your patience. It has been good to have got in touch with you and PCTechForums. This is a great learning process for me.

Regards,
Kavita

Kavita,

To remove Earthlink's tool bar referance in IE
Start HijackThis and click "Do a system scan only" put a check next to each of the following entries:
O2 - BHO: ElnkBhoGuard Class - {00000000-0000-0000-0000-000000000002} - C:\Program Files\EarthLink\Toolbar\EScamBlk.dll (file missing)
O2 - BHO: ElnkScamBHO Class - {15F4D456-5BAA-4076-8486-EECB38CD3E57} - C:\Program Files\EarthLink\Toolbar\EScamBlk.dll (file missing)
O2 - BHO: ElnkPubBHO Class - {512ACF1B-64D9-4928-B382-A80556F28DB4} - C:\Program Files\EarthLink\Toolbar\ElnkPuB.dll (file missing)
O2 - BHO: ElnkProtectionBHO Class - {9579D574-D4D8-4335-9560-FE8641A013BD} - C:\Program Files\EarthLink\Toolbar\ProtctIE.dll (file missing)
O2 - BHO: ElnkLegacyUninstBHO Class - {E713904C-DF05-4C79-BBAD-02DB923253BE} - C:\Program Files\EarthLink\Toolbar\uninsttb.dll (file missing)
O3 - Toolbar: EarthLink Toolbar - {C7768536-96F8-4001-B1A2-90EE21279187} - C:\Program Files\EarthLink\Toolbar\Toolbar.dll (file missing)

Now click the "Fixed checked" button and then close HijackThis

Clear system restore points so there is no chance of reinfection:
Turn off system restore by right clicking on My Computer and go to Properties->System Restore and check the box for Turn off System Restore. Click Apply and then OK. Reboot the system and turn system restore back on.

Internet Explorer security settings!
Go to Internet Options/Security/Internet, press 'default level', then OK.
Now press "Custom Level."
In the ActiveX section, set the first two options ("Download signed and unsigned
ActiveX controls) to 'prompt', and 'Initialize and Script ActiveX controls not marked as safe" to 'disable'.

HijackThis Log file after fixing Earthlink Toolbar files

Postby Kavita » Thu Apr 05, 2007 8:08 pm

Hello Gecko,

I followed the procedure explained by you. The earthlink toolbar is no longer there.

Zone Alarm scan showed no infections. However, it displays an error whenever I start the scan or sometimes when the PC starts. This is 'vsmon.exe - Application Error'. the message reads - The instruction at '0x00f9863c' refrenced memory at '0x0000d4ef'. The memory could not be read. Click OK to terminate program.

I just click the window close cross sign as suggested by you instead of the 'OK' button.

The ZoneAlarm window shows 'System Error: Please reboot' which then automatically changes to 'All Systems Active' without rebooting.

Here is the latest HijackThis log file:

Kavita,

You log is still clean.

vsmon.exe is part of the Zone alarm package, nothing I had you do should have affected Zone Alarm.

Lets see if we can trace down the offending file:
Go to Start > Control panel > Administrative tools > Event viewer > look in the application section.

You are looking for any red or yellow icons, double click on the icon.
Click inside the 'Description' section then highlight the text and copy and paste it into notepad.
At the bottom of the event window check 'words' and then copy and paste that text also
Then past it all into your reply to this thread.

If you don't show any errors in the event viewer then:
Go to Start > Control Panel > System > Advanced tab > Startup and Recovery section
Settings button > System Failure section > check the box 'Write an event to the system log'

Worst case scenario would be that you uninstall Zone Alarm and then reinstall it.
