Question ID: 517549
Hi there,
I have the Aurora pop-ups on my PC, and I also have tracking/MDU files
on my laptop.  I had both computers networked in order to print. 
These are my business computers.  I can't get all this spyware off no
matter what I do.  The PC also has something called TOPicks that none
of the spyware removers or AdAware will remove.  I would like to get
help with both systems.  The laptop doesn't have the Aurora thing, it
has the MDU stuff for sure.  I can tell when it starts logging my
typing too!  Please help!!
Thanks, Cassandra

Hi hottiemom!!

I want to tell you that this answer is not considered ended until the
pests listed on the question will be removed from your computers. So
after each step is completed post a request of a clarification to let
me know how your computers are working, if further assistance is
needed I will add it as a clarification.
Thank you.


Important note:
In order to know the status of your computers I will request you to
post Hijackthis (HJT) logs for each computer at some points (after a
fix is applied or if I need to know how to fix).
HijackThis will tell me what is happening in your system. To download it:
http://www.spywareinfo.com/~merijn/files/HijackThis.exe

You can find a HijackThis tutorial at the following pages:
"Bleeping Computer - HijackThis Tutorial - How to use HijackThis to
remove Browser Hijackers & Spyware":
http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/forums/index.php?showtutorial=42

What I will need that you post a HijackThis log here, so run HijackThis
and let it scan your computer, then WITHOUT fixing anything generate a
log and post it here as a clarification. With this info I will be able
to help you. Follow the instructions on this part of the tutorial:
http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/forums/index.php?showtutorial=42#HowToUse


- First start with the easy part: Aurora (I hope so...)

Go to myPCtuneup.com to download the
uninstaller and follow the instructions:
http://www.mypctuneup.com/evaluate.php?b=aurora

After do that please post a new HJT log (success or not) in order to
check for remanents and or other pestwares.


- TOPicks:

In order to remove manually this pest follow the instructions at this page:
"Remove TOPicks - Adware Spyware Removal Instructions":
http://www.spyany.com/program/article_spy_rm_TOPicks.html
or
"Removing Spyware: TOPicks": (Recommended)
http://www.spywarexterminator.com/topicks.html

After do that please post a new HJT log (success or not) in order to
check for remanents and or other pestwares.


- MDU and other possible pests: 

Please post a HJT log for each computer after remove Aurora and
TOPicks. I will analyze it and give you assistance on fixing your
computer.


I will wait your requests for clarifications.


Regards.

Ok, this is after running the Pctune up deal on my laptop.  I will do
this computer first.  This one seems to have the most spyware.  It
seems better after I run some things, but then reverts right back. 
So, after this one is clean, I will follow the rest of the directions
for the TOPicks and Aurora things.
Let me know!!  Thanks,
Cassandra

Hi!!

Follow these instructions:

Download Ewido (Trial version):
http://www.ewido.net/en/download/


Remove WildTangent:
Go to START > Settings > Control Panel 
Double click Add/Remove Programs, Select WildTangent , Click uninstall
or add/remove, follow the on screen instructions.


Then close all Browser instances and run HJT, fix the items indicated
below and then without restart and without open the browser run Ewido.
(In other words do not open the browser after fix items with HJT).

Check to fix the following items in HJT (if present):

Then restart your computer. Open your Window directory ( for example:
c:\windows), then open the wt foler (if present), delete all the files
in it.


Test your computer and post a new HJT log.

Ooops!!

I forgot to tell you that it will be a good idea to clean all TEMP
files before restart your computer, you can use the following free
tool:
"CleanUp!":
http://home.comcast.net/~sgould4567/software/cleanup/index.html

Download it from here:
http://downloads.stevengould.org/cleanup/CleanUp40.exe


Or go to Start --> Run --> type cleanmgr and press Enter. Delete Temp
files and Intenet temp files.

Ok....I performed each step you suggested with two exceptions:
1. There wasn't the HKLM WildTangent file present to 'fix'
2. In the windows directory there wasn't a wt folder

All other things were done and checked.  I am concerned with deleting
the files associated with programs I use quite often, such as: the
webshots, the RealPlayer and my Trellian.  I just want to be sure that
those three 'fixes' still allow the programs to run correctly.  Also,
I had been thinking that the Apoint.exe was a malicious file.  Am I
wrong?  Thanks for you help!

Hi!!

There is no problem with the parts 1 and 2. 
If you use the webshots, the RealPlayer and Trellian leave them for
now. Note that the REalPlayer fix just avoid the launch of the
autoupdate and do not affect the normal run of it, freeing resources
to your system.

Regarding to the Apoint.exe file see the following, if the description
fits your system leave it installed:
"Description: Touchpad software for laptop PC's. For instance it is
found on the Panasonic machines and allows part of the touchpad to be
used for document or Web-page scrolling. Required for proper
functioning of the pointing software but not required for the laptop
to work."
http://castlecops.com/startuplist-4673.html

After a first look this system appears to be clean, but it is heavily
loaded with non essential running programs, if the system is working
well and a good speed responses leave it as is.

To "vaccinate" your computer against spyware use SpywareBlaster:
http://www.javacoolsoftware.com/spywareblaster.html

For a tutorial:
"SpywarebBlaster: Using SpywareBlaster to protect your computer from
Spyware, Hijackers, and Malware":
http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/forums/tutorial49.html


Just wait your next request.

Ok, thanks for that!  In regard to my lapto: 
1. I had already deleted those 3 things even though they are programs
I use regularly.
2. Also, did you see the comment someone else left at the bottom of
this page?  Is that true?
3. Now I know what Apoint is, thank you!
4. I would like to find out what it is heavily loaded with and how to
turn some of it off that I don't need to be running.
5. I have now downloaded and installed Ewido and SpywareBlaster.  Will
the combo of these two and Norton prevent me from gaining those MDU's
again?  and keep the computer clean of all the other crap?

Now, on to the Pc.  This is the one with the Aurora and TOPicks crud. 
Here is a new HJT logfile for it and I will look for your answer
tomorrow!

Other than that, it looked clean?

Clarification of Answer by livioflores-ga on 06 May 2005 21:04 PDT
Hi again!!

1. I had already deleted those 3 things even though they are programs
I use regularly.
That's ok!!


2. Also, did you see the comment someone else left at the bottom of
this page?  Is that true?
See the following pages and decide by yourself.
"PC Hell: How to Remove WildTangent":
'The WildTangent Web Driver is their technology that allows you to
play 3D games over the Internet. Although its not technically
considered spyware it does have built in components to update itself
and gather information about the computer system'
http://www.pchell.com/support/wildtangent.shtml

"Is WildTangent spyware?"( by Wild Tangent):
http://support.wildgames.com/WT_spyware.html

I would leave it out of my system, but if you want to reinstall it see:
"How do I reinstall the Web Driver?"
http://support.wildgames.com/reinstall_WD.html


3. Now I know what Apoint is, thank you!
You're welcome!!


4. I would like to find out what it is heavily loaded with and how to
turn some of it off that I don't need to be running.
The following items can be removed from your startup list (you can use
msconfig or HJT to remove them). Removing from the startup list does
not uninstall a program, just prevents the unnecessary load of
programs that can be started manually when you as required. The list
includes a link to a brief description of the process involved:
O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [UpdateManager] "C:\Program Files\Common
Files\Sonic\Update Manager\sgtray.exe" /r
http://www.processlibrary.com/directory/files/sgtray/

O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [DVDLauncher] "C:\Program

O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [DwlClient] C:\Program Files\Common Files\Dell\EUSW\Support.exe
http://www.processlibrary.com/directory/files/support/

O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [Microsoft Works Update Detection] C:\Program

O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [MMTray] C:\Program Files\Musicmatch\Musicmatch

http://www.processlibrary.com/directory/files/mm_tray/

O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [mmtask] C:\Program Files\Musicmatch\Musicmatch
Jukebox\mmtask.exe
This file is used by Musicmatch Jukebox to detect when a CD is
inserted in your computer. When a CD is inserted, mmtask.exe launches
Musicmatch Jukebox to play the CD.
http://www.greatis.com/appdata/a/m/mmtask.exe.htm

O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [ViewMgr] C:\Program Files\Viewpoint\Viewpoint

O4 - HKCU\..\Run: [Yahoo! Pager] C:\PROGRA~1\Yahoo!\MESSEN~1\ypager.exe -quiet

O4 - HKCU\..\Run: [MSMSGS] "C:\Program Files\Messenger\msmsgs.exe" /background

O4 - HKCU\..\Run: [AIM] C:\Program Files\AIM\aim.exe -cnetwait.odl
http://www.processlibrary.com/directory/files/aim/

Remember that you can start any of this program manually when you need
it, you do not need to run all at the same time.
Note that it is your own decision select which items from the above
list are eligible to avoid for run at startup.


5. I have now downloaded and installed Ewido and SpywareBlaster.  Will
the combo of these two and Norton prevent me from gaining those MDU's
again?  and keep the computer clean of all the other crap?
Yes, this is a good security combo, but you must take into account two things:
- "Your security combo is good but not the best". You will hear this
many times in the future, if it works for you use it, I use a
different combo that works fine for me (Kerio Personal Firewall +
Avast! Antivirus + Pest Patrol; I do not like Norton products). But
all the opinions are subjectives and based in personal experiences, so
use your combo until you stop feel confident on it.
- Ewido is not a freeware, you are using a 30 days trial version, if
you want to keep it you must buy it.

I thing that this ends the LAPTOP part of your question, so we can
start with the PC. In the next clarification I will tell you what I
saw in your Pc's HJT log.

Regards.

Hi!!

To start I recommend you to uninstall Spyware Doctor, it is not a good
rated antispyware program:
"Given the other strong antispyware options on the market today, PC
Tools' Spyware Doctor left us underwhelmed. Its OnGuard real-time
blocking capability did little to prevent infestation..."
http://www.pcmag.com/article2/0,1759,1645388,00.asp

Clean all TEMP files before restart your computer, you can use the
following free tool:
"CleanUp!":
http://home.comcast.net/~sgould4567/software/cleanup/index.html

Download it from here:
http://downloads.stevengould.org/cleanup/CleanUp40.exe


Or go to Start --> Run --> type cleanmgr and press Enter. Delete Temp
files and Intenet temp files.


Then run HJT and check to fix the following items:

F2 - REG:system.ini: Shell=Explorer.exe C:\WINDOWS\Nail.exe
O1 - Hosts: 207.68.176.250 auto.search.msn.com
O1 - Hosts: 64.12.152.18 search.netscape.com
O9 - Extra button: Ebates - {6685509E-B47B-4f47-8E16-9A5F3A62F683} -
file://C:\Program Files\Ebates_MoeMoneyMaker\Sy350\Tp350\scri350a.htm
(file missing) (HKCU)


Reboot the computer. Your PC must be clean after that. Post a new HJT
log to confirm that.

Regards.

Hi there again!
I did everything you suggested.  That CleanThis program was completely
awesome!  The first time you asked me to clear the temp stuff, I used
the Windows clean manager.  This second time, I downloaded the program
and it found 4.5 gigs of junk on this computer!  There were almost
200K files that it deleted!  WOW!  My laptop was considerably cleaner
with only like 700mb found.  Thanks for the great tip there!

Now, the only thing that I couldn't perform was the 'fix' through HJT
on this file:  F2 - REG:system.ini: Shell=Explorer.exe
C:\WINDOWS\Nail.exe
I didn't see it in the list, although there was something similiar
that I left alone.

Below is the new HJT file after doing that stuff and rebooting. 
Hopefully you don't see any other issues with the Aurora and TOPicks. 
I haven't seen pop-ups yet with the Aurora, but still definitely had
them through this process. Let me know if you see anything that can be
disabled in order to run faster too, like you did on the other one!

One more thing I have noticed on my laptop is that one website that I
frequent seems much slower than the others and my laptop I thought had
a good graphics card.  Do you know why this would happen on just one
particular site?
Thanks!  Cassandra

Hi!!

GOOD NEWS!!: Your last HJT log appears to be clean.

Just one thing:
If you do not know the rockymountaindish.com site fix the following item:
R0 - HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main,Start Page =
http://www.rockymountaindish.com/


Some notes:
You did not find the entry F2 - REG:system.ini: Shell=Explorer.exe
C:\WINDOWS\Nail.exe probably because Ewido deleted it.

Non essential programs launched at start up are (each one can be
started manually when you need it):
O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [TkBellExe] C:\Program Files\Common
Files\Real\Update_OB\evntsvc.exe -osboot
O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [eBayToolbar] C:\Program Files\eBay\eBay
Toolbar2\eBayTBDaemon.exe
O4 - HKCU\..\Run: [IncrediMail] C:\PROGRA~1\INCRED~1\bin\IncMail.exe /c
O4 - HKCU\..\Run: [Yahoo! Pager] C:\Program
Files\Yahoo!\Messenger\ypager.exe -quiet
O4 - HKCU\..\Run: [msnmsgr] "C:\Program Files\MSN
Messenger\msnmsgr.exe" /background

Regarding to this:
"One more thing I have noticed on my laptop is that one website that I
frequent seems much slower than the others and my laptop I thought had
a good graphics card.  Do you know why this would happen on just one
particular site?"
Without knowing which is the site I cannot give you a proper answer.
 

Confirm me that your computer is working properly.

Regards.

Hi there!
That's funny that you asked about the www.rockymountaindish.com
site....that's my company!  Of course, it is ok.  :-)  And if you want
to sign up for Dish Network, please do so on my website.

Now, the system seems fine.  On my laptop, the site is
www.millionairematch.com.  It seems to do ok on my PC, but not on the
laptop.  This is the only site that I seem to have a delay on.  I am
not sure why. Anyway, I thank you so much for everything!  This was
the best ten bucks I ever spent!  :-)

Hi Cassandra!!

I am really glad to know that now your computers are working well.
Regarding to the www.millionairematch.com site, I have not an answer
for you about this, it is possible a security configuration that
differs from one system to other.

Thank you for the good rating and comments. I will be here if you need
help again in the future.
Best regards.

Hi there again,
You are welcome...thanks so much for helping me out!  I had been
struggling over this with a friend via Skype forever!!

Last question.  Before this process started with you, my laptop
wouldn't connect to my wireless internet automatically.  I would have
to open it up after a few minutes of booting and check that box that
says "have windows configure my wireless internet connection". 
However, during the cleaning process and one of the re-boots you had
me do, it worked all on it's own for the first time in a very long
time!  I was excited that something had been broken and then fixed! 
Now however, it won't do it again....:-(  I am attaching a new HJT log
to see if you see anything strange.  I would rather it automatically
do it because it's kind of aggravating otherwise and wastes my time. 
Please let me know, Thanks so much......
Cassandra

Hi!!

The HJT log looks clean, I guess that the problem is related to the
connection configuration (things like IP numbers, etc.)
Unfortunately this is not a field in which I have good skills, but you
can check the following possible solutions:
"Google Answers: Computers":
See the last comment by philbert-ga.

Hope that this helps you.
Good luck!!
