hijackthis help please.

[dodgy368]

A friend of mine sent me this log, his pc went to "hotkey"(what the F) after about 10 mins which locked his pc up, this log was sent to me after I'd helped him clean it up a bit, if he went to known a/v sites, it crashed him(I said he had a virus), he seems to be back online after using vcleaner.exe and Spyware Doctor, just wondered if anyone could spot a "nasty" in this log?

Just checked, "C:\Program Files\MSN Apps\Updater\01.02.3000.1001\en-gb\msnappau.exe" on some other sites and it doesn't seem to cause a problem.

[Mullyman]

You still have this entry....did you remove it in safe-mode?....reboot your PC and tap the f8 key ...then choose safe-mode and delete this entry(the following entry is usually safe but can contain spyware and uses excess ram... it is unnecessary to have...you want to keep it go ahead...but you don"t need it)

C:\Program Files\MSN Apps\Updater\01.02.3000.1001\en-gb\msnappau.ex

You can remove this entry with HJT as it is
Unnecessary:

O3 - Toolbar: MSN - {BDAD1DAD-C946-4A17-ADC1-64B5B4FF55D0} - C:\Program Files\MSN Apps\MSN Toolbar\01.02.3000.1001\en-gb\msntb.dll (file missing

Bigfix is just a service that provides you with update information..it comes bundled with Windows XP...it is not harmful...you can just disable it if you don"t want to use it.

Cheers Rossco, didn't think those ones were a prob but I've just e-mailed him to clear them out.:)

[tesco]

tell him to install sp2.

That at least kills any chances of him installing spyware from websites (when you get the yes\no agreement ithing on web pages then it isntall search bars and stuff) because SP2 blocks them.


that's if he's using internet explorer. not many spywares install with firefox or other modern browsers.

[Mullyman]

They wern"t a problem...they were legit pages...thats why i suggested you go to a site that specializes in analyzing HJT..with mis-informed advice you could cause worse problems than you first had.

[dodgy368]

Didn't think they were a prob but don't think it'll cause any by removing them, will take your advice and check out that site you mentioned.:)

Wonder what they'll make of mine? lol

ps, ran hjt on my pc, had a look at what it came up with and wasn't concerned with anything, saved the log and had a look at that and it was different! Any ideas why it's different?

[dopey]

does he know what program this line refers to?

O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [khwj] C:\WINDOWS\khwj.exe

if not, fix with hjt, and then delete the file.

cheers.

[Mullyman]

You can get rid of it..O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [khwj] C:\WINDOWS\khwj.exe ...if it is not a program he recognizes...it is unknown to me.

[Smurfette]

IME, nonsense-name files such as khwj.exe that don't get hits on Google are usually generated by some sort of malware that can be identified from other pointers in a HJT log. The name is just random letters.

Cheers all, http://castlecops.com suggested by Mullyman is brilliant for this, they've got an alphabetic list of what appears in start up lists and which is good or bad.:D
