    I need to CURE this infected machine

    hi guys
    way cool that you volunteer your knowledge like this. This world would be a better place with more folks like you. OK... about my computer... first, i'd like to say that just following the “read me first before requesting help” steps by jholland1964‎ was a tremendous help. Cleared up several issues and my machine is running way faster than it was. Thank you. What happened was a week or so ago, my wife opened AND saved an attachment file from a bogus “Postmaster” email in our junk box no less. Wish i could smack some since into her! Ker-plunk – it took over – changed all my settings, hid ALL my files, pics, denied access to programs and to task manager and redirected my web browser. I'm no geek, but I do know a few tricks. I was able to access system restore through a safe mode boot with a DOS prompt. Regained control of Windows – had to manually change all file attributes & a few other settings but it hasn't ran the same since. I've been using Spyware Terminator for long time but, at your recommendation, I think an upgrade is in order. Whats going on currently is Windows explorer is frequently & continuously – closing & restarting, Internet explorer & Firefox still have a redirect problem and also abruptly just close. I have internet browser pages randomly opening weather i'm browsing or not and sometimes I notice machine is bogging down & unresponsive, I open task mngr & find an iexplorer running in background pushing the numbers over 240,000. When I try to System Restore, I get “Restore Incomplete” message at all restore points and, i'm not totally sure if it started before or after the infection, but my mouse is haywire. It stops working, jumps around the screen, opens sub-menus, closes windows, changes application settings while i'm running them and sometimes moves real slow. Its driving me crazy. I've tried upgrading the drivers, uninstalling & letting Windows reinstall on boot up, nothing works. I haven't been able to try a different mouse yet but I did hook mine up to my daughters machine & it worked fine. I'm attaching all the logs & reports you requested as well as a few extra all in one zipped folder. I know its an older machine but its been great for me until the recent. Please let me know if you can help. I would be most grateful.
    Thank you.

    Hi and welcome.
    I am not a security expert - but I offer these suggestions.
    Best to copy and paste your Logs - or you could share your infection with others.

    You have No installed Anti-Virus program - unless SpywareTerminator is the paid
    for version that has F-Prot installed.

    Download - update - scan with..
    MalwareBytes.
    http://www.malwarebytes.org/products/malwarebytes_free

    Hitman Pro.
    http://www.surfright.nl/en/hitmanpro

    Delete all that they find.

    Reset your Host files.
    HostExpert.

    Click on Restore MS Host Files

    You are still using Service Pack 2 - update to SP 3 asap.
    When all is done - post a new Hjt log.
