Re: cant get rid of CWS.Searchx

what to do if AppIint_DLLs' value is already clean, and cws.shredder can't find searchx, but i still have some problems that's associated with it, like eazy-search.biz as a homepage and other nasty stuff like sexdial icon.

Hmm, sounds like while it is a CoolWebSearch spyware, it may not specifically be CWS.searchx

On CWShredder, what does it say was REMOVED when you run it?

Tony, follow the procedure in the link posted by MerlynTech right above yours. That has step by step procedures and links to download the tools to remove the hidden dll file that causes the reinfection.

Sexdial has infected my computer

ResultsofAdA···lspy.zip 433 bytes

Calamity Jane:
I like Lion have been infected with the same Sexdial Spyware. I recently was infected by some spyware that I will call "SEXDIAL" because it deposited an Icon on my desktop of the same name. I tried to delete it but it keeps returning. I am a regular user of Ad-Aware 6.0 which did NOT detect nor repair this spyware. I also own Spy Sweeper by Webroot and it is also ineffective.

1) The Spyware has rendered my Internet Explorer 6.0 useless. Most of my links on my IE 6 browser toolbar no longer work. The first page may work but on the subsequent pages I get a "This page can not be displayed".

2) In addition I get a Icon called Sexdial on my desktop. When I click properties, then Target, I get: "C:\Program Files\Internet Explorer\IEXPLORE.EXE" »www.casinopalazzo.com/index.php?···d=100336 .

3) About every 5 minutes Internet Explorer will open a new web page (regardless of whether the browser is already open or not) and take me to a web page www.casinopalazzo.com, a web page that offers internet gambling by a company in the Antilles.

4) My browser home page is highjacked and redirected to some page I have never heard of.

5) Currently I can use my other browser "Mozilla Firefox" without incident. I have no idea what other problems will develop on my computer but when I recently ran Ad-aware again I got (see attached file) alerting me to a possible browser highjacking.

When I went out to the internet and typed in sexdial into Google I got a web page of some other person that had been infected with the same spyware virus. He apparently posted his highjack this log onto the internet. I would be glad to try to post mine if it would be of some help. The web page was »[Help] Search portal spyware got me now.

Please help me! and email me if you need additional information!
Thanks very much!

Hi dafficus,

That file you attached isn't working (says invalid file). Could you please Download *Hijack This!* which will give us details about your operating system

First, please make a new folder to put your HijackThis.exe into. Anywhere on your hard drive is fine other than your Desktop or the Temp folder. We suggest you use something like "C:\Program Files\HijackThis" but feel free to use any name. This is to ensure it makes the necessary backups for recovery if needed. Download and save the contents to the new folder you made and then navigate to the HijackThis.exe. Then, doubleclick HijackThis.exe, and hit "Scan".

Download here:
»www.spywareinfo.com/downloads/to···This.exe

When the scan is finished, the "Scan" button will change into a "Save Log" button. Press that and copy & paste its contents here. Most of what it lists will be harmless or even essential, don't fix anything yet. Someone will be along to tell you what steps to take after you post the contents of the scan results.

It would be best if you start a new topic of your own (Use the *New Topic* button at the top of this forum). Then, use Copy and paste to add the results of your HijackThis log to your reply. Include your Adaware log results as well but use copy and paste. Open your Log, use Edit then select all (Ctrl+A), this will highlight all the text in your log. Then use Ctrl+C (copy to clipboard) and in your reply use Ctrl+V which will paste the text into your message

Zupe,
Thanks for the help. Your RegLite instructions worked like a charme for me. Got this nasty variant about a week ago and could not make it go away. Thanks again!

As Zupe previously stated (and so did I), you all need to go the the link at the top of the forum the is in big red letters: Before you post a Hijack This Log or if you're infected Follow These Steps which will take you here.

»Security »I think my computer is infected or hijacked. What should I do?

Follow those steps and record your findings from each (we will need logs and results from those) then Post your own new topic Each system and each unsolvable malware problem usually needs different instruction. So please don't post any new queries to this thread. Be sure you update the programs in required in each step and do the scans in safe mode.
