Hi to everyone.
I think have a serious problem here.
My machine is based on WinXP Pro @ SP2 w/ Firewall ON and I use antivirus Symantec Norton 2005 w/ Internet Worm Protection OFF and use toscan for spywares with SpyBot S&D 1.31XT.
I get strange lookups of some apps like IExplorer or eDonkey2000 after using them a while.

I don't know if that's correct or not, but I have wmiprvse.exe (located in C:\WINDOWS\system32\wbem\.. ) and msmsgs.exe (located in C:\Program Files\Messenger\.. ) that might have something wrong.
I say this because msmsgs.exe always starts up with Windows even if its NOT in my msconfig at startup and have MSN Messenger to NOT load up when Windows starts, and wmiprvse.exe is always located under the same svchost.exe, that if terminated it let come up the automatic countdown for WIndows shutdown (like old sasser problem).
Now... I think that the svchost.exe in case is some kind of MS patch for excluding the old sasser problem, but I just don't understand why the two files wmiprvse.exe and msmsgs.exe are related to that particular svchost.exe.

Now here are two screenshots about Process Explorer taken at startup (first pic) and after a while when I have several IExplorer pages open, Outlook opened and composing an email with Outlook composer (based on WINWORD).

I have made some SpyBot S&D scans since I first had these lookups and I foud several spywares that now are completely gone.
The only two that I just can't remove definitely are the MediaPlex and the Avenue A, Inc. spywares that use to appear again in the Spybot S&D scan list after a while.
Here is a shot of the scan:

I thought maybe this could be related to some open prots I have in my Windows or in my router, so I downloaded Windows Worms Doors Cleaner and took a look at it, and I found the following ports opened. Is this part of the cause of my problems?

I have made a HijackThis log and compared on the online alalyser at HijackThis log file analysis, but everything seams correct except for a few things that seams to be Possibly nasty, but don't really know if they are really bad of not.

Here is my HijackThis log:

And here is the Short analyzing about the Possibly nasty:

------
R0 - HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main,Start Page = http://umail.rules.it/ - Possibly nasty

O9 - Extra button: Trace - {04849C74-016E-4a43-8AA5-1F01DE57F4A1} - D:\Programmi\Network Programs\VisualRoute\vrie.dll - Possibly nasty

O9 - Extra 'Tools' menuitem: VisualRoute Trace - {04849C74-016E-4a43-8AA5-1F01DE57F4A1} - D:\Programmi\Network Programs\VisualRoute\vrie.dll - Possibly nasty

O17 - HKLM\System\CCS\Services\Tcpip\.. \{79949E38-97F3-4547-95B5-B0214F2D5BD0}: NameServer = 10.0.0.138 - Possibly nasty
------

In the first entry there is my default web page that is a redirect url of my online webmail.

The second and third are about a software that I use to trace IPs.

The forth and last entry there is my router personal IP, but I don't understand why this could be possibly nasty.


Please Help!
Thank you all.

Hi,
The very best program for stopping this junk from getting into a computer is called Spyware Blaster, and it's free.
You don't have to scan with it; just keep it updated, and it will protect your computer.

Try it out at:

http://www.download.com/SpywareBlast...ml?tag=lst-0-2

I haven't had ANY problems since installing this gem a couple of months ago.
Also, run AdAware and Spybot in Safe Mode... as well as your Antivirus Program scan; it is much, much more effective.
Best wishes,
fredg

Looks like you have some windows SMB file/printer sharing services running. But if you are behind a hardware firewall, these shouldn't be visible to the world.

Get a portscan from:

fredg... thank you very much.
I have already done everythig you told me.
Now I hope just to be secure.
The only thing I haven't made is the virus scan.
I'll make it asap.

psi42... I have a file and printer sharing because I am in a home lan.
How can I secure this on my machine?

I have made Common Ports scan and its all Stealth.
What does this mean?

Thank you all.

fredg?. psi42?!
