Re: Pc Dialemma!!!!!!!!!!!! 1, Is adaware, spybot, webroot etc not getting rid of them? Have you got anti-spyware software? If not, install and use it now. 2, Stop using IE - it's pants. Use another browser like Firefox as it rarely gets problems like this. 3, If you're really fucked, search for a prog called HijackThis, download it, run it and create a log file (don't do owt else - just create the log file and don't delete anything), copy and paste the log file on this board and I'll tell you what to do.

You've got a bit of an evil bastard there... hardly any info around on removal of freshbar - it's fairly uncommon. You've also been done over by incredimail too. And a couple of other coolwebsearch-type fuckers. And it looks like you may (just may, not def) have a trojan as well. After getting rid of these - switch to firefox. You've been seriously fucked over. First off - copy and paste all this text to a new text file on your desktop and save it so that you can read it whilst you're doing the following. Close all browser windows (including windows explorer windows) before running any of the following programs. Do a virus-scan with AVG, also use housecall (I take it you've used it before). Click on My Computer, click control panel, click add/remove programs, un-install incredi-mail if you can. Did you run adaware and spybot? Make sure they're the latest versions, and run both again. Download, install and run cwshredder. Then try the following: Unzip HijackThis fully - you're running it from a temp folder. Create a new folder eg. C:\hijack or similar and unzip the exe file to there. It's necessary so that you have a back-up. Close all browser windows (including windows explorer windows), run HijackThis again and place checks against the following (if they are still there): R1 - HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer,SearchURL = http://www.begin2search.com/sidesearch.html R1 - HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer,(Default) = http://fastsearchweb.com/srh.php?q=%s R3 - URLSearchHook: (no name) - {10808535-A45F-254F-7ECA-7DF7A813E45F} - (no file) O2 - BHO: (no name) - {AEE41FD9-A707-4E84-8A0D-F6D3B15353C5} - C:\WINDOWS\System32\jceodba.dll (file missing) O2 - BHO: Cls - {CF021F40-3E14-23A5-CBA2-717765721316} - C:\WINDOWS\System32\wer1316.dll (file missing) O3 - Toolbar: FreshBar - {06ABAA2D-34AB-4902-A326-409BD9B9A7A5} - C:\WINDOWS\System32\iecust.dll O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [NeroFilterCheck] C:\WINDOWS\system32\NeroCheck.exe O4 - HKCU\..\Run: [IncrediMail] C:\Program Files\IncrediMail\bin\IncMail.exe /c O8 - Extra context menu item: &Add animation to IncrediMail Style Box - C:\PROGRA~1\INCRED~1\bin\resources\WebMenuImg.htm O9 - Extra button: (no name) - {08B0E5C0-4FCB-11CF-AAA5-00401C608501} - C:\WINDOWS\System32\msjava.dll O9 - Extra 'Tools' menuitem: Sun Java Console - {08B0E5C0-4FCB-11CF-AAA5-00401C608501} - C:\WINDOWS\System32\msjava.dll O16 - DPF: {11111111-1111-1111-1111-111111113457} - file://c:\explorer.cab O16 - DPF: {1223B679-3A38-4EB0-A170-A58F703ACCA5} (ImStarter Class) - http://www2.incredimail.com/content...ail_install.cab O16 - DPF: {14A3221B-1678-1982-A355-7263B1281987} - ms-its:mhtml:file://c:\nosuch.mht!http://www.awmdabest.com/bltd/361.chm::/file.exe O16 - DPF: {31B7EB4E-8B4B-11D1-A789-00A0CC6651A8} (Cult3D ActiveX Player) - http://www.cult3d.com/download/cult.cab O16 - DPF: {386A771C-E96A-421F-8BA7-32F1B706892F} - O16 - DPF: {D8089245-3211-40F6-819B-9E5E92CD61A2} (FlashXControl Object) - https://register3.valueactive.com/m...OCX/FlashAX.cab O16 - DPF: {EF3C5077-2040-400D-91F7-86603AF00F80} (Cbs32Ctl Object) - http://www.fhm.com/skinker/FHMDownloader.ocx Then hit 'fix checked'. Open up your 'My Documents' folder, click Tools --> Folder Options, click on the view tab, click 'show hidden files and folders', click apply, click ok, close the window. Next you'll need to restart into safe mode: Click start --> run, type msconfig, hit enter, click the boot.ini tab, check the box next to /safeboot, click ok and restart. Now, find and delete the following files (if they're still there): C:\WINDOWS\wanmpsvc.exe C:\PROGRAM FILES\INCRED(something - not sure of rest of folder name but it's part of incredimail)\bin\IMApp.exe C:\WINDOWS\System32\pxhping.exe Also look through the C:\WINDOWS\System32\ folder and delete the following if found: service.exe msacmx.dll d3dxov.dll winsrv32.dll ieûnit.exe ipxroutex.exe rdshost32.exe rshe.exe net2.exe mqsvch.exe dllhostxp.exe extrac16.exe mqbckup.exe pxhping.exe rdpnr.exe slservc.exe clfmon.exe hdr.dll Click start --> run, type msconfig, hit enter, click the boot.ini tab, un-check the box next to /safeboot, click ok and restart. If it's all still there, I am stumped. But def switch to firefox. That's kept me busy!! Good luck!
Oops, forgot to add: when you're deleting the files in safe mode, also look for and delete the following (if they're there): C:\WINDOWS\System32\bar11.dll C:\WINDOWS\System32\system.css C:\WINDOWS\system.css C:\WINDOWS\system\explorer.exe NOTE: Remove only this explorer file located in the "system"-folder.
