yahoo pages hijacked

I posted a msg here yesterday but I cant seem to locate it this AM. I used my home PC and I am not sure if it even got thought. I'll repost and if its a duplicate I apologize I have XP with SP2 and Symantec AV10. When I go to yahoo and type in a subject in the search bar, then click it. It will go to that yahoo page that shows those subjects. But when I click on any subject it sends me to any number of shopping links instead. Places like search 9, or ebay or shop this... I ran Sym. AV and it found nothing. Then I ran Spybot and it found a Zlop something I deleted it. Then ran Ad Aware. It found nothing. Then I ran Sass exe. It ran hijack this. I briefly saw something that said Trojan C BIS or something like that then it was gone. I noticed a thing called esellerate engine.dll. I never saw that before and wonder if thats the problem. I rebooted and the problem is still there. I can post the hijack list if someone can help me, please

Can you repost the log but this time..........

Please make sure you check the "preserve spacing button" on 
the bottom of the posting page. It's right above the "Cancel Button" !

HERE---->[X]Check this box to 
preserve your spacing, or leave it unchecked to have your text wrapped automatically. 
Tip: Don't use this option unless you really need it; use the preview feature on 
the next page if you're not sure. 

Please don't fix anything without proper guidance!!!

Not much showing.
Please do this:

Enable hidden files: 
Open Windows Explorer & Go to Tools > Folder Options. Click on the View tab and make 
sure that "Show hidden files and folders" is checked. 
Also uncheck "Hide protected operating system files" and untick "hide extensions 
for known file types" . Now click "Apply to all folders"
Click "Apply" then "OK"

----------------------------

Do a search for this file:

kdpua.exe

If you find it see if you can find any info on it then.......

Please find the file and upload it 
HERE for a free scan - let me know the 
results.
If it's too busy - try here:
Click HERE

--------------------

Check Internet Explorer "Add-Ons"

1. Start Internet Explorer.
 2. On the Tools menu, click Manage Add-ons
See if any odd items there

---------------------- 

Last please run RVAXO from the link below...post the log back here:

Copy and paste the text below into notepad and save it as ,fix.reg
Make sure the Save as type field says "All files".
Save it to your desktop.

REGEDIT4 

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\software\microsoft\windows nt\currentversion\winlogon]
"System"=-

If you did it right it should look like this:




Now double click on it and allow it to merge into the registry.

----------------------

Disable this add-on:
SearchAssistantOC from MS ActiveX Control, shdocvw.dll

See if it makes any difference.  

-----------------

I had you run RVAXO because of some of the other malware you mentioned.

Let me know,  MrC

Hello Mr C. Last night I downloaded the latest windows updates, KB890830 malicious software removal tool and KB950749 security update. Much to my surprise, when I loggen on tonight I found a msg on the screen that said that the malicious software removal tool had found a problem and removed it. It said it was Trojan:w32/alureon.gen. I never heard of that one before. Anyway the yahoo pages seem to be working normally again and I was able to load the games that had their .exe altered. I went ahead and disabled SearchAssistantOC from MS ActiveX Control anyway. I havent done anything with the regedit info you sent. Do you think I should do it anyway? So far, everything is working well and normally. If the Win update actually did solve the issue I still want to thank you for taking the time and effort to help me. Y'all provide a much needed and appreciated service and I thank you immensely. I think it takes a great deal of knowledge to troubleshoot someones PC problems over the net JD

Good, glad you got it straightened out.
Sounds like you had some sort of Wareout infection.

I would run that reg file to clear out this entry:

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\software\microsoft\windows nt\currentversion\winlogon] "System"="kdpua.exe" 

The file isn't on your computer and a Google search of it only brings up your post.
It loads everytime you log on.

Good Luck,  MrC

Good afternoon Mr C.... I did as you suggested. I copied your link to note pad and ran the fix. It took me several times to get that regedit icon you posted but I eventually succeeded. After merging, I followed the path you showed. I should have done it before I merged the files to see if kapua was there. After I merged them and checked the path all I found was [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\software\microsoft\windows nt\currentversion\winlogon] credentials. The box to the right says ab (default) (value not set) Is that correct?? JD

You're looking in the wrong place...that's a sub-key.

Double click on the Winlogon folder......and then look to the right.

-----------------

Since you are worried about it.........

If you want to put it back...same as before:

REGEDIT4

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\software\microsoft\windows nt\currentversion\winlogon] 
"System"="kdpua.exe"

---------------------------------

Just want to put back the "system"

REGEDIT4

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\software\microsoft\windows nt\currentversion\winlogon] 
"System"=""

Please forgive my ignorance. I want the register to read as YOU say. I recopied your last link to add "system" to the reg. I looked in the box on the right after clicking winlog on. I saw what you were saying. "System" was not there. After I merged your new link, behold, there it was! Thank you for tolerating my ignorance and bearing with me, Mr Charlie.....and please feel free to visit my site. www.dozer.cc JD My deepest thank you

In fact that file and reg entry were part of the infection..the link below describes 
it (it's a Wareout infection but similar to yours):

http://www.virusbuster.hu/en/viruslab/descriptions/dnschanger.qe

Taken from that page:

The long program copies itself into the system folder using a random name starting 
with "kd". kdpua.exe<---your file

Modifies the following registry key:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\WinLogon\System,

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\software\microsoft\windows nt\currentversion\winlogon] "System"="kdpua.exe"<----yours showing in the DSS scan.

writing its own filename there.

It monitors the network traffis, and blocks (or redirects) certain domain names, 
URLs and file extensions. Among the redirected domain are microsoft.com and yahoo.com. 
It has a rootkit functionality, the registry key is visible, but 
the trojan file is not. That's why you couldn't find it...it was supper 
hidden!

Removal:

1/ Get the trojan filename from:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\WinLogon\System.


2/ Restart the computer using an install Install/Recovery CD/DVD

3/ Delete the trojan file from the system folder.

4/ Reboot the computer

5/ Clear the following registry key (with an empty string):

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\WinLogon\System.
