    I'm really really sorry if this is in the wrong place or was asked before but it is worrying me now this is on my laptop and I want rid of it!!

    I've googled it and everything I found wants me to download something or other and I dont want more cr@p on that won't work or will probably be worse than I have already so please help me!!

    I'm using avg and spybot s&d and they don't see it's there!!

    was already told not to be on such porn sites and it was all my own fault but this was in an attachment (I know) but from someone from work about a baby with lukemia and he only found out after he'd sent it to me!!

    SpyLocked is part of the "Smitfraud" family which is quite aggressive malware. The previous suggestions wont get rid of it. Do this

    Please download the self-extracting version of HijackThis from here:

    HijackThis_sfx download

    Save HijackThis_sfx to your desktop.

    Double-click the file then click the Unzip button. Then close the Self-Extractor window.

    Using My Computer/Windows Explorer, navigate to C:\Program Files\HijackThis and double click on HijackThis.exe to run it. If you would like to make a shortcut for your Desktop so it's more easily accessable, right click HijackThis.exe and choose Send To > Desktop (create shortcut).

    Please run the extracted HijackThis.exe from now on. Delete any copies of HijackThis.zip that you have saved.

    Open HijackThis and click Do a system scan and save a log file. Copy the entire contents of that log and post it here

    Please download SmitfraudFix to your desktop.

    Double-click SmitfraudFix.exe
    Select option #1 - Search by typing 1 and press "Enter"; a text file will appear, which lists infected files (if present).
    Please copy/paste the content of that report into your next reply.

    **If the tool fails to launch from the Desktop, please move SmitfraudFix.exe directly to the root of the system drive (usually C:), and launch from there.


    Note : process.exe is detected by some antivirus programs (AntiVir, Dr.Web, Kaspersky) as a "RiskTool"; it is not a virus, but a program used to stop system processes. Antivirus programs cannot distinguish between "good" and "malicious" use of such programs, therefore they may alert the user.
    http://www.beyondlogic.org/consulting/proc...processutil.htm

    So post the SmitfraudFix report in your next reply.

    You should print out these instructions, or copy them to a NotePad file for reading while in Safe Mode, because you will not be able to connect to the Internet to read from this site.

    Next, please reboot your computer in Safe Mode by doing the following :
    • Restart your computer
    • After hearing your computer beep once during startup, but before the Windows icon appears, tap the F8 key continually;
    • Instead of Windows loading as normal, a menu with options should appear;
    • Select the first option, to run Windows in Safe Mode, then press "Enter".
    • Choose your usual account.
    Once in Safe Mode, double-click on SmitfraudFix.exe
    Select option #2 - Clean by typing 2 and press "Enter" to delete infected files.

    You will be prompted : "Registry cleaning - Do you want to clean the registry ?"; answer "Yes" by typing Y and press "Enter" in order to remove the Desktop background and clean registry keys associated with the infection.

    The tool will now check if wininet.dll is infected. You may be prompted to replace the infected file (if found); answer "Yes" by typing Y and press "Enter".

    The tool may need to restart your computer to finish the cleaning process; if it doesn't, please restart it into Normal Windows.
    A text file will appear onscreen, with results from the cleaning process; please copy/paste the content of that report into your next reply.
    The report can also be found at the root of the system drive, usually at C:\rapport.txt

    Warning : running option #2 on a non infected computer will remove your Desktop background.


    Once you have done that, do this

    Please run the F-Secure Online Scanner

    Note: This Scanner is for Internet Explorer Only!
    • Follow the Instruction Here for installation.
    • Accept the License Agreement.
    • Once the ActiveX installs,Click Full System Scan
    • Once the download completes,the scan will begin automatically.
    • The scan will take some time to finish,so please be patient.
    • When the scan completes, click the Automatic cleaning (recommended) button.
    • Click the Show Report button and Copy&Paste the entire report in your next reply.


    In your next reply, please post the SmitfraudFix report, and the F-Secure Online Scanner report, and tell me if you had any problems.
