secretniche Posted December 4, 2004 Posted December 4, 2004 Hi, good people from total choice! Evil naupoint hijacked my msie, bolt of lightning strike destroyed my linux modem (home-owners insurance does not cover this damage). And darned msie is integrated with win2k. What do I do? I have tried both search-and-destroy, and giant-antispyware. Neither of them was able to detect (and destroy) naupoint trojan hijacker happily running my msie. And if I try outsmart 'm (using opera, or firefox) this evil naupoint makes my integrated msie-win2k environment reload, that is rebooting my computer!!! Any ideas? secretniche Quote
Madmanmcp Posted December 4, 2004 Posted December 4, 2004 Well From what I have read on it Giant AntiSpyware is suppose to work on it. I would suggest you disconnect from the internet. Start up in safe mode and try Giant anmtispyware again. Quote
secretniche Posted December 4, 2004 Author Posted December 4, 2004 I used them both on and offline - worked the same way (negative). But, hey, I will try it the third way, just as you suggesting - the safe way. I'll report the results tomorrow. secretniche Quote
TCH-Thomas Posted December 4, 2004 Posted December 4, 2004 (edited) Here´s a little info about it too and how they got rid of it: http://computercops.biz/postp361990.html Also moving for organization. Edited December 4, 2004 by TCH-Thomas Quote
NedWreck Posted December 6, 2004 Posted December 6, 2004 I got bombed a few weeks ago by hundreds of trojans and other things that leached themselves onto IE. It were a miserable task getting rid of them all. Spybot S&D found over 400 different "Search helpers" "Shopper helpers" "phone dialers"and other things I didn't want and never asked for installed on my computer. All from so called businessess and not hackers or whatever. How is this legal? Bob Quote
Madmanmcp Posted December 6, 2004 Posted December 6, 2004 How is this legal? Because there are no laws defining it as being illegal. Quote
secretniche Posted December 11, 2004 Author Posted December 11, 2004 Thanks, Yes, Sir, it DID work (in SAFE MODE). Giant pointed at that Naupoint t.h. right from the start, and then completely deactivated, and destroyed them both - Naupoint and his evil load - Browser Hijack. And it was about time, anyway. 'cause MSIE started behaving like something possessed with evil spirits - reloading pages on its own, without any directions and intentions from me, and most often against my will. Hijacked MSIE/WINNT integrated environment went completely berserk. So I decided to follow through according to your directions. And now, quoting W - It's "mission accomplished!" Thank you, again. woooot secretniche Quote
