Sick And Tired Of These Retarded Processes

The other day I just suddenly started to get pop-ups and like 50 thousand processes running that I didn't start. The only thing I can figure is progs that I installed but the only ones I have put in is middle_man for aim. I have looked through all of my temp files and everything and I've ran ad aware and spybot but they still keep coming back :angry: :angry: :angry: :angry: :angry: . And I ran a trojan scanner and it found a file but I deleted it but I don't know what to do? :helpsmile:

Windows XP:
go to start>setting>control panel>performance and maintainance>administrative tools>services>look for MESSENGER>right-clik "properities", DISABLE.
That might help B)

http://www.blackviper.com/WinXP/servicecfg.htm

here youll find all the services you can safely disable - very ugly web interface-list is towards the bottom

Disabled for a long time...I mean pop-ups like in ie for penis enlargement and shit...ill find what ones are running...Vfmmx.exe AAiHb.exe and i remember seeing OyJoy.exe or some shit like that.


Edit---Zedaax They are processes I have never saw before. They are run with my user name to so I can close any of them but when I close one another one opens.

These l00k very scary :P
Go http://www.answersthatwork.com/Taskl...s/tasklist.htm
and search for these proccesses, the list is not updated, but it might
help.

Try checking again your computer with a virus scanner and Spybot-S&D and make sure you have updated everything. (Spybot-S&D, virus scanner, etc)

Ok my virus scanner got screwed up and its gone my damn pop up blocker is gone and I did spybot yesterday and it fixed everything temporarily. Do you guys know middle man to be gay and put adware on my comp.

Full list of unknown processes I've had ZA block:

1.kWS.exe
2.wowex32.exe
3.bargains.exe
4.eZstub Module
5.Loader.exe
6.oyJy.exe
7.Save!
8.wcmdmgr.exe
9.WhenUSearch.exe
10.WinWildApp.exe
11.wowex32.exe

These are all ones I have noticed in the past couple of days.

theyre all spyware...what programs do you have isntalled on your computer? and does anybody else other than you use your computer, who may be going to websites that have spyware and clicking accept on all the security warnings?

Okay, you need a virus scanner and spyware ridding software that can handle crap like this. I've tried any spyware remover worth trying and I've known SpySweeper to be the best. A lot of people like Ad-aware and Spybot and they work great, but Spy Sweeper isn't so targeted by crapware. :rolleyes:

NOD32 stand-aloe scanner and McAfee AVERT Stinger may help to clean the system without installing a full anti-virus. AVG is an excellent anti-virus, as well as NOD32.

Black Viper's Site really helps with services. But, I always hear people having trouble with pop-ups, viruses, spyware, and other crap so I made something to help. Supertrick XG I've been putting it in a lot of my posts lately. :lol:

I figured it was spyware....Spybot killed them all last night and I'm the only one who uses this computer and I don't click on and security warnings...You really don't want my whole list of installed progs do you...It had to have been packaged with something else.

I found out where these bastard exe's are hiding...In my system32 folder and I've never seen them before so I don't know if I should delete them or not but I can't delete them because I don't even see them :angry: :angry: :angry: :angry:

since those files might still be in use, get yourself hijack this and post your log in the many help forums around.

Don't try fixing yourself as you can severely cripple your system.

a few sites that come to mind is computer cops, spywareinfo, tomcoyote.

good luck

I think I am just gonna re-get winxp from the school and do a fresh-install. Only $5 to get the full version of winxp pro legally so I'll go with it. I never re-did windows on this computer before.

Sorry for not searching but I don't have time...where might I find hijack this?

Do you mean this? :huh:

hi,
you can download hijack this here.

post your log at a help forum, or if you want post here, and i'll take a look.

DO NOT fix anything without advice.

good luck.

AIM heh?

Look in your Control Panel and see if you have an icon for "Wild Tangent".
That is a little surprise gift that AIM likes to give you, too.
I'll bet that you are getting all this spyware loaded by AOL.

After getting all sorts of crap from AIM I switched to an IM program called Miranda 32.
Works with all the major networks and doesn't invite all it's friends into your computer to play.

I know it isn't Wild Tangent because I watched ad-aware and spybot kill all of that. The link the first guy gave me was dead so I couldn't use it last night and I'm at school right now so I will try it when I go home tonight. Thanks.


Edit - I forgot to say that I used process protector and I looked at the evil processes and it told me their names they run by but it also told me the file it originates from and every single one is Kern32 in my System32 file.
