Simplest way to check would be to fire up IE & do a simple keyword search.

If it doesn't automatically redirect you to a chinese website, you should be okay.

Here's what you can do....

AdAware SE v1.06

Download, install, update, configure and run a scan with Ad-aware SE v1.06:

1. Download and Install AdAware SE Personal, keeping the default options. However, some of the settings will need to be changed before your first scan.
2. Close ALL windows except Ad-Aware SE.
3. Click on the'world' icon at the top right of the Ad-Aware SE window and let AdAware SE update the reference list for the adware and malware.
4. Once the update is finished click on the 'Gear' icon (second from the left at the top of the window) to access the preferences/settings window:
   1. In the 'General' window make sure the following are selected in green:
      1. Under Safety:
         • Automatically save log-file
      2. Automatically quarantine objects prior to removal
      3. Safe Mode (always request confirmation)
   2. Under Definitions:

      • include addtional object information
      • DESELECT - include negligible objects information
      • include environment information
   3. Under Alternate Data Streams:
      • Don't log streams smaller than 0 bytes
      • Don't log ADS with the following names: CA_INOCULATEIT
7. Click the 'Tweak' button and select in green:
   1. Under 'Scanning Engine':
      • Unload recognized processes during scanning
      • Scan registry for all users instead of current user only
   2. Under 'Cleaning Engine':
      • Let Windows remove files in use at next reboot

13. If Ad-Aware SE finds bad entries, you will receive a list of what it found in the window
    
14. Right-click on the list and choose Select All
15. Click the Next button to finish removing the items that were found
    
16. When finished, REBOOT to complete the removal of what Ad-Aware SE found

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Download, Install & Run Spybot S&D. Click on the "Search for Updates" button. Install any updates that are available.

Go to the Mode menu and choose "Advanced Mode". Next click on Immunize to your left. Click the Immunize button (green cross) on top to Immunize your computer - you should do this each time there is an update.

Now click on the 'Spybot-S&D' option on the top left to go back to the main screen. Next click on the 'Check for Problems' button. Let it run the scan. If it finds something, Select all those in RED and hit the 'Fix Selected Problems' button. Exit Spybot.

If you keep getting the DSO Exploit entries, even after you updated Windows and fixed them, then download the Spybot DSO Exploit Fix and install it over the current Spybot installation.


~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

After running the above programs, download HiJackThis - this program will help us determine if there are any spyware/malware on your computer. Create a folder at C:\HJT and move HiJackThis.exe there. Double click on the program to run it.

1. If it gives you an intro screen, just choose 'Do a system scan and save a logfile'.
2. If you don't get the intro screen, just hit "Scan" and then click on "Save log".
3. Post the HiJackThis.log file in a new thread. Click here >> http://forum.lowyat.net/index.php?act=Post&CODE=00&f=25
. Do not fix anything in HiJackThis since they may be harmless.

@servonet.

If you want something to be done about your malware problems, you have to furnish us with a HiJackThis log.
If unsure how to do it, here are some instructions...

Download HiJackThis - this program will help us determine if there are any spyware/malware on your computer.
Create a folder at C:\HJT and move HiJackThis.exe there.
Double click on the program to run it.

1. If it gives you an intro screen, just choose [Do a system scan and save a logfile].
2. If you don't get the intro screen, just hit [Scan] and then click on [Save log].
3. Post the HiJackThis.log file here. Do not fix anything in HiJackThis since most of the entries may be harmless

When you have a log, start a new thread by clicking here

I shall help you when I see your new thread.

I have a simple way for you to find out on your own.

Download Trend Micro(tm) Anti-Spyware for the Web Utility (by clicking the "Scan and Clean your PC" button).

• Save it to your desktop.
• Double-click the new icon on your desktop (tmas-web-scan.exe)
• It will say "Loading TrendMicro definitions".
• Once the definitions are loaded, the program will appear to close then re-open.
• Click "Start Scan"
• After it's done scanning, click "Scan Results"
• Make sure all items found have a check next to them, then click "Clean Threats Now".
• Click Exit.

Reboot your computer. In place of the TrendMicro icon will be a text file called "Antispyware.log".
If you wish, you may share the details with other LYF members by pasting the entire contents of that log here.

Download & Run Shoot the Messenger. Disable Messenger service & that should be the end of your woes

Read up on it here > http://www.grc.com/stm/shootthemessenger.htm
Feel free to ask if still in doubt

You should have uninstalled the programs with Add/Remove programs before allowing the antivirus to forcibly remove them. It may leave several orphaned entries in your Registry.

Try this first..

Download Trend Micro(tm) Anti-Spyware (by clicking the "Scan and Clean your PC" button).

• Double-click the tmas-web-scan.exe icon
• It will say "Loading TrendMicro definitions".
• Click "Start Scan"

After it's done scanning, click "Scan Results"

• Make sure all items found have a check next to them, then click "Clean Threats Now".
• Click Exit.

It's quite good at removing such entries.

If that doesnt work, run HijackThis
Go to Config > Misc Tools - Open Uninstall Manager
Select the program & click "Delete this entry"
