Recommendations:

- UPromise toolbar is installed. There is no need for alarm, though most toolbars are not trustworthy, or they take up viewable web space. Simply uninstall the toolbar.

- Adobe PDF Reader. You may wish to uninstall this software and convert to using Foxit PDF Reader.

- RealPlayer. You may wish to uninstall this software and convert to using Real Alternative.

Should you have any questions, feel free to ask.

[tal ormanda]

Thank you. Did you have a program check those or yourself? I would like that.

[Tarun]

It's a program I wrote a long time ago. I basically copy the entire HijackThis log and then enter it into my Converter. I then manually look through the code (Until I can make a working whitelist) and flag what is malicious, what is safe to remove as it's not needed, and what stays. Link to screenshot.

I may release it to the public in the near future though.

[tal ormanda]

That would be nice, or have the makers of highjack have something to check it on it. Or atleast give to me

Edited June 23, 2006 by tal ormanda

[Tarun]

Perhaps in the future, but as for now it's still beta and undergoing private testing.

I would love to see a replacement to HijackThis. It's so old and outdated, plus Merijn never updates it anymore.

[LLXX]

Surprised you didn't catch this:

F2 - REG:system.ini: UserInit=c:\windows\system32\userinit.exe

Although userinit.exe is a legit process, it's suspicious to see it being loaded in system.ini - I know there are trojans that use this startup method in an attempt to hide from registry scans.

Recommendation: Extract original USERINIT.EXE from XP CD and delete that entry.

[Tarun]

Most cases where this is present it is normal.

tal, what are all of the scans that you ran on your system?

[tal ormanda]

Adaware, noadware, registry scan, ccleaner, ewido, windows defender,xoftspy, spybot, stinger, zonealarm. lol im good.
