| | Re: Anyone know what spywiper is? Can anyone please, please post a *confirmed* fix to remove this. So far the "fixes" I have seen do not work. Or even answer me this: IS there a fix yet?
I've tried-
* Ad Aware 6 (detects nothing) * Spybot S&D (detects nothing) * Registry Clean Expert from Cnet * Manually resetting the default homepage to yahoo.com * Manually editing the registry and searching for default-homepage-network.com yields NO MATCHES
Even after all that... I can't remove it.
Within seconds of connecting to the Internet I begin getting multiple popups. I left my system on overnight and in the morning I had 45 instances of Internet Explorer and 15 instances of notepad open.

Under R0 I want to add I manually delete/edit that out of the registry and within seconds of plugging the ethernet cable back in the entry re-appears after the popups begin again. So removing the entry does nothing. I'm missing a step here..

|  | | I got this awful high-jacker last week, same homepage-network / spywiper / cellphone ad / porn ad crap. I ran "Spybot Search & Destroy" on it, w/ no success.(Spybot is an awesome free proggy, I sent them a report on this jacker). I cleared cookies & files...... got jacked again ! I have Adaware on my other computers...... forgot to put it on this one. After install, I ran it....... it found all mentioned IE entries / exploits / registry changes. Adaware, I assume, updated their database ( I updated after install, today ).... as it will recognize, and clean this highjacker ( I noticed some of you had no luck with Adaware against it ). My Adaware found it , it matches the registry reports, in previous posts here. This one is a real bug-a-boo ! | |
|  |  | | Re: Anyone know what spywiper is? Also, paltalk is trojan program who is disguised as chat . He monitors everything you see and surf on web , even put code in memory of comp . Go to c: windows and choose 'startup; to erase their icon . If you go to »webroot.com they give you free trial , so you can clean comp for free 30 days from all spywares and paltalk things . Talking on forums dont help.....file complaint at »ftc.gov , they work with fbi . Also, find your state attorney complaint form online . You have also bbb online . Zedmedia, default-homepage and mailwiper are probably same group . IMPORTANT ...default-homepage-network.com in global whois for domain claims they are c/o networksolutions company to fool people so that people trust them . Write or call networksolutions.com and report that , so they have high paid lawyers who will take care and we will all benefit . Fbi and government are probably hijacked in same manner as we are . Also, when Microsoft.com will add all this extra protection that we have to buy from third parties ? In united states, manufacturer is responsible for defected item and free replacement , why we have to pay for firewalls, virusscans , and else ? If product is not good then go out from business and let competion make better software . We had seen a lot recalls in america but never from microsoft . | |

|  |  |  |  BPremium,MVM join:2000-10-28 | Re: Anyone know what spywiper is?Isn't that C code? Not likely to be running from a web ad I think...
I Googled up VBScript and JavaScript IE versions of this trick at »www.waxy.org/archive/2003/03/27/···dr.shtml . I haven't tried them.
I don't know which method SpyWiper's ad uses; I just thought it was a cute feat.

|  |  |  |  |  | | Re: Anyone know what spywiper is? Those of you having problems with constant jackings - can I recommend that you use a firewall. This normally stops the code from getting in. | |
|  |  |  |  |  |  R2R NotPremium,MVM join:2000-09-18 Long Beach, CA kudos:1 | Re: Anyone know what spywiper is? Not necessarily. The usual pathway into someone's computer is NOT through an open back door, it is through the front door. Just like all other crimes.
When I hear about a murder in a house, the first suspects are the spouse, the ex-spouse, and ex-lover, the kids, business partner, etc -- all of whom get let in the front door.
Stastically, most malware infections are let in by the user -- perhaps unknowingly by opening an email attachment or visiting a rogue web site with Active Content enabled. Until you do something more proactive than a firewall, the Hijackings will continue. JMHO | |
|  |  |  |  |  |  |  BPremium,MVM join:2000-10-28 | Re: Anyone know what spywiper is? Well sure, R2, I thought that went without saying. Anything that worms its way in via inbound exploits (relying on open ports on your computer) is NOT going to be simple ad-ware/spyware.

However, I don't know how many times I see comments like: quote: "I recommend that you use a firewall. This normally stops the code from getting in."
I found those comments a little naive in there approach. A basic firewall covers your rear, but it doesn not do so hot to protect you against things that come in through the front door.
Little kids don't get kidnapped by some strager, statistically they get kidnapped by the estranged father -- who got into the house quite easily. | |

Of course I agree with you. I was just saying that we would "consider the source", a semi-anonymous poster whose comment would be weighed appropriately. Best fishes.

|  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  | | Re: Anyone know what spywiper is? Oh that code is not C-code, it's Unicode. Unicode: A code where all characters are represented by a code. Web browsers automatically undertstand it.
It translates into the Javascript code used to open the Cd-Drives. | |

 |  |  |  robtooR.J.T.Premium join:2003-10-13 United Kingd 3 edits | Thanks for posting the code vulcan146. Here's the converted version...
<script LANGUAGE="VBScript"> <!-- Set oWMP = CreateObject("WMPlayer.OCX.7" ) Set colCDROMs = oWMP.cdromCollection if colCDROMs.Count >= 1 then For i = 0 to colCDROMs.Count - 1 colCDROMs.Item(i).Eject Next ' cdrom End If --> </script>
In case anyone's surprised, this shows that the ejecting CD doesn't mean you're being spied upon.
Much later EDIT: the opening notepad trick's cute, too -- it uses view-source:hxxp://www.example.com/something.txt | |
