« on: October 11, 2006, 03:09:48 AM »

Hey,

I already remove the entry key from regedit but the problem it still happening..

Does anybody knows what shoud I do to fix this situation?

Thanks in advance..

First, I suggest you use an antivirus. avast is good and won't slow your system that much if you set the Standard Shield settings to Normal level (not High).
To fully uninstall avast (AFTER using Control Panel > Add/Remove programs) you can run: Avast Uninstall.

avast should be blocking any connection as it is an antivirus not a firewall...
Which OS are you using? Is it up to date?
Do you use a firewall? Which one?
Do you have any other antivirus installed in your system?
Any other security programs that could interfere?

Maybe...
Can you post a screenshot of your email settings? Which program are you using to get and send mails?
Did you use Control Panel to uninstall avast? Did you try the uninstall tool I've posted before?

I´m not using local mailing, just webmail like Yahoo or Terra, So I don´t have any kind of email settings..

More than that, I removed the avast from Control Panel but it seens that avast keep some port or connection bloquead even after it has been desinstalled.. Is that possible?

By the way, reading some posts in this forum I realized that it could be some avast settings, but, I don´t have any avast4.ini in my box anymore..!!!

Any idea?

Thanks

No. Avast is an antivirus and does not block anything, less when it is not even installed...  ::)
Try ashClear.exe (http://www.avast.com/eng/avast-uninstall-utility.html) to clean anything left behind by avast.

By the way, reading some posts in this forum I realized that it could be some avast settings, but, I don´t have any avast4.ini in my box anymore..!!!
avast4.ini file is only 'active' when avast is installed... so, right now, avast settings have nothing to do with this as you've uninstalled avast.

Your connection problem could be due to browser or firewall settings, a bad network configuration, who knows...

I get the utility tool you sent the link and ran it.. This aswclear removed some protection from avast remaining..

And I thought it would resolve the problem, but I restart my box and It keep the same problem..

I´m posting hijack log here, maybe it can help in some way..

The hijackthis log doesn't seem complete, if it is then it's the smallest I've seen.

The other point is your OS is way out of date, this leaves you vulnerable as many vulnerabilities that have been exploited have been patched. So you should urgently update your OS to SP2 plus latest updates after SP2.

For an on-line analysis - HiJackThis Log file - On-line Analysis OR HiJackThis Log file - On-line Analysis 2

Other than your OS being out of date, no software firewall or anti-virus detected, there doesn't seem to be much in your log.

 :)  Hi :

      Your Operating System is NOT "way-out-of-date"; it is
      the same one I have . Definitely should NOT "upgrade"
      to SP2 UNLESS you know you are malware-free, which
      is unknown at this time.
      You are using an "old"version of Hijackthis; should
      uninstall it, then get the latest version at :
       www.thespykiller.co.uk/files/HJTsetup.exe  .
      And a "short" log of HijackThis implies it is AFTER
      using "SAFE MODE"; for posting HijackThis log, ALWAYS
      run in "Normal" Mode if at all possible.
     How do you know you have "port 1025 blackjack" ?
     AND for the SECOND TIME, what antiSPYWARE or
     antiTROJAN program(s) do you have on your computer ?

Hi Spiritsongs

You are right, my hijack is quite old.. I´m installing the new one you sent the link..

Unfortunatelly I didn´t have any antivirus or antispyware until I got this problem..., So now I have installed AVG antivirus here to help me on this ..

I notice that my 1025 port was blackjack using a port scan utility.. and in the same time I thought the process svchost.exe was struggling my computer... in another utility I discover that this process got the port 1025..

Thanks for you help..

Simple fact, a true statement with SP2 being the current service pack and many other security updates since SP2 (effectively a collation towards SP3) Your OS and gmachado's is 'way out of date,' fact.

As I said "this leaves you vulnerable as many vulnerabilities that have been exploited have been patched. So you should urgently update your OS to SP2 plus latest updates after SP2." Urgently being the operative word, not right now, when your up to your a** in alligators the last thing on your mind is draining the swamp.

Not only the fact that with SP1 you can't get the latest current version of IE 6 SP2 (which has many security updates), nor will you be able to get IE 7 or many other security updates that require you have SP2 installed, a statement of fact, your OS is out of date, your choice what to do about it.
