In Summary; I followed the procedures outlined in Malware-Tips instructional for removal of Sweetpacks Toolbar, utilizing my 3 sources of Security posted above and until I discovered the alert from Avast, that they could not auto-upgrade WMSIE-7, I thought I had rid my system of SweetPacks. I sent a private message to Malware-Tps staff member and they suggested I post my issues here.

I did not download and/or run Adware Cleaner, or Hitman Pro because I received a warning on both attempts that they were (possible sites) that could harm my System, so I tried Avast, SuperAnti-Spyware, And Malwarebytes as they were already residing on my system and have been for around 4 years, and they have been adequate to remove any malicious detection's since I installed them.

That is pretty much the scenario, and I have not gone to WMS for assistance with this issue. I thought I would try to rectify this IE access issue with Malware-Tips as, you have been an excellent source of informational and technical instruction to the letter.

Thank you very much for your assistance during these trying few weeks.

Sincerely,

Casey Pons

PS Comcast has been no help what-so-ever, and they are why I am here in the first place. Not my way of doing business, and/or customer service.

Hi and welcome to the malwaretips.com forums!

I'm Kuttus and I am going to try to assist you with your problem. Please take note of the below:
  • I will start working on your malware issues, this may or may not, solve other issues you have with your machine.
  • The fixes are specific to your problem and should only be used for this issue on this machine!
  • The process is not instant. Please continue to review my answers until I tell you your machine is clear. Absence of symptoms does not mean that everything is clear.
  • If you don't know, stop and ask! Don't keep going on.
  • Please reply to this thread. Do not start a new topic.
  • Refrain from running self fixes as this will hinder the malware removal process.
  • It may prove beneficial if you print of the following instructions or save them to notepad as I post them.
Your security programs may give warnings for some of the tools I will ask you to use. Be assured, any links I give are safe.


Before we start:
Please be aware that removing malware is a potentially hazardous undertaking. I will take care not to knowingly suggest courses of action that might damage your computer. However it is impossible for me to foresee all interactions that may happen between the software on your computer and those we'll use to clear you of infection, and I cannot guarantee the safety of your system. It is possible that we might encounter situations where the only recourse is to re-format and re-install your operating system, or to necessitate you taking your computer to a repair shop.

Because of this, I advise you to backup any personal files and folders before you start.
<hr />

STEP 1: Run a scan with AdwCleaner

<ol><li>Download AdwCleaner from the below link.
<><a href="http://general-changelog-team.fr/fr/downloads/finish/20-outils-de-xplode/2-adwcleaner" target="_blank">ADWCLEANER DOWNLAOD LINK</a></> (This link will automatically download Security Check on your computer)</li>

<li>Close all open programs and internet browsers.</li>
<li>Double click on <>adwcleaner.exe</> to run the tool.</li>
<li>Click on <>Delete</>,then confirm each time with <>Ok</>.</li>
<li>Your computer will be rebooted automatically. A text file will open after the restart.</li>
<li>Please post the contents of that logfile with your next reply.</li>
<li>You can find the logfile at <>C:\AdwCleaner[S1].txt</> as well.</li>
</ol>
<hr/>

STEP 2: Run a scan with Junkware Removal Tool

Hello Kuttus,

Thank you very much for your prompt reply regarding my situation. My first question is; Is it advisable to download any more Anti-Adware while I have the three mentioned security programs residing on my computer. Should I un-install any and/or all of my existing software programs first?
And...is there any risk in the download sites that they also may have malicious threats bundled within. I guess I am a little gun-shy at this point. Just trying to be very cautious, as I hope you can understand.

Thank You,

Casey

I am having problems communicating and navigating on this website.
Whether it be me and my unfamiliarity with it or what, I do not know.
I had asked if there were problems downloading and running adwarecleaner,
with my residing Avast, Super Anri-Spyware and Malwarebytes programs installed on my system.

I am not going to do anything else until I hear back from you. I come from a 40 year background in Voice Telecom, and not Data, and this time lag, mis-cues with typing is very frustrating.

I am very confused and frustrated. I need more precise instruction as none of what I have communicated has been acknowledged.

I cannot open Internet Explorer, so I can't back-up my system files and folders.

I download Adware-Cleaner and I have no clue what to do with it. As your instructions make no sense to me as I look at the downloaded software program. Very Frustrating!!!!

Please advise....

Kuttus,

Just to keep you posted of any new issues, since I ran Adware Cleaner on my system last night, I have noticed my Google Chrome Browser has not allowed me to maneuver the same in yahoo--mail. Could there be some relationship/correlation to this issue and running of Adware Cleaner.
Is this the SweetPacks virus causing this new issue???????

I sure wish we could speak realtime about these issues.....
You have my number Sir!

Best Regards,

Casey

Step 3 is running Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware

Kuttus:

I did not see a number 3 associated with this Step, that is why your comment threw me off. It just so happens that I already have Malwarebytes-Anti-Malware on my desktop and routinely run this scan, as I did right after Step 1, Step 2. No Malicious Detections was noted in the summary.

My concern now is that I cannot open Microsoft Internet Explorer and Avast keeps sending me "Critical Alerts" that Windows Internet Explorer can't update.

Please varify you know that is the problem I am concerned about!

Once Again...Thank You,

Casey
