| Need pop-up blocker help! Hey new here, I have a general web/computer question for you all, I am getting pop ups constantly, although I have both the Windows XP pop-up blocker and Internet Explorer 6.0 pop-up blocker turned on with NO exceptions allowed. I am running Windows Firewall, Norton Anti-virus and Utiilities, Spybot, AD-Aware and MS Anti-spyware beta every day. (Sometimes more than once a day) I recently got rid of the stupid TEVY.exe thing, which I thought was causing it, but I am STILL getting popups. I have looked at all of my installed programs and none seem like spyware-causing crap. I have Windows Messenger turned off, although my kids use MSN messenger alot but I don't let them download any stuff off of it. Also, my Qwest/MSN tries to connect itself to the net. When I put a parental block on my kids' screen-names, the connection stalls and wants to get 'parental permission' before it can finish connecting, so I know whatever it is is somehow connected to my kids screen-names. Any ideas short of backing up my 200G hard drive, formatting it and re-installing programs one by one? (which would be a huge pain....) Tabby  |

| Here's something you could try. Ctr-alt-del to bring up the Task Manager. Click on the processes tab, then click on the User Name column to sort the list. Scroll down to Windows User. Google every running process name you don't recognize to see if it's your culprit. You can make this a lot easier by downloading Process Explorer. It's a free and robust Task Manager replacement that gives a lot more useful information than TM. Here's a video introduction. Pierre |

| Hi Tabby M, Sounds like you've got a Malware infection, Auto Scanners like Spybot and AdAware don't always find all of them, some need removing manually. First you need to download Hijack This from here Download Link To a location on your computer where you can find it. We recommend you create a New Folder C:\Hijack This It is important you unzip it into this folder for the following reasons. 1. If you run it from its Zip File, the program cannot create backups, which may be needed if mistakes are made. 2. If you put it in a Temp File, HJT and the backups may get deleted if we need to clear out your Temp Files as part of the cure. Once it is located, Navigate to the folder using Windows Explorer or My Computer, and double click on HijackThis.exe.. When its opened for the first time you’ll get a startup screen. Click on Don’t show this frame again when I start Hijack This then Click on None of the above just start the program. Before your first scan, we need to check the configuration. Click on the Config button in the bottom right hand corner. Now confirm the following are checked. Make backups before fixing items Confirm fixing & ignoring of items (safe mode) Include list of running processes in logfiles The other items should be unchecked. Click the Back button to return to the Scan page. Click on the Scan button, and wait for the scan to finish (this may take some time depending on the number of items in your log). When finished the Scan button will turn to a Save Log button, click on this and save the log (by default to the same folder that HijackThis.exe is in). To paste it into a Forum, do the following. Navigate to your Hijack This folder, double click on the hijackthis.log file, a text document will now be open on your screen. Click on Edit/ Select All, then Edit/Copy, then open the Posting Screen on the Forum, right click in the screen, and click on Paste. The text should now be in the message. Press Submit. If you post your HJT log here, I'll have a look at it for you, and tell you what you'll need to do. DO NOT TRY TO REMOVE ANYTHING YOURSELF USING HJT NO MATTER WHO ADVISES YOU OTHERWISE, YOU CAN EASILY CAUSE SERIOUS DAMAGE TO YOUR COMPUTER IF YOU USE IT WRONGLY |

| Hi Tabby M, You have a LSP hijack, this is a serious infection, and will need expert guidance to help you remove it. The following lines in your HJT indicate this. O10 - Unknown file in Winsock LSP: c:\program files\msn\msnsharedfiles\pclsp.dll O10 - Unknown file in Winsock LSP: c:\program files\msn\msnsharedfiles\pclsp.dll O10 - Unknown file in Winsock LSP: c:\program files\msn\msnsharedfiles\pclsp.dll O10 - Unknown file in Winsock LSP: c:\program files\msn\msnsharedfiles\pclsp.dll There are other infections, but this is a major one, and must be fixed by experts. Try posting your log at any of the following forums for help. http://spywarewarrior.com/index.php http://castlecops.com/forums.html http://forums.tomcoyote.org/ http://forum.malwareremoval.com You will have to register, and give your e-mail adress, but you will not recieve any unsolicited mail by doing so, it's needed to enable your membership. You may have to wait for a reply, as the experts are kept very busy. The helpers on the above forums are the best, and their advice can be trusted, UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCES TRY TO FIX THIS WITH HJT, HJT CAN NOT BE USED FOR FIXING 010 ENTRIES, DOING SO WILL LOSE YOUR ABILITY TO CONNECT TO THE INTERNET.

| Hi Tabby M, No problem, glad to help. This is a bit more serious than just pop-ups, they're just the visible manifestation of the infection. Your computer has been quite seriously compromised. In your current state, none of the data on your computer is secure, you would be very unwise to make payments using a credit card, or do any online banking until you have cleared this from your machine. You could also be used as a mule, to distribute spam, such is not the case at the moment, but the site who planted this on you has full access to your computer, and is able to download whatever programmes they wish onto you. Good luck with getting it removed. Gary |
