SVCHOSt causes Mailicious URL popup

[Wayno11]

I recently reinstalled Avast after a failed experiment with McAfee.  Now Avast has found a problem with SHCHost.exe that is causing the Malicious URL popup to come up constantly.  I have attached the rquired files.  I apologize ahead of time for doing attachemtns, but my files went over the 10000 character limit, even if I try to break it down in to seperate posts.

• Then click the Run Fix button at the top
  
• Let the program run unhindered, reboot the PC when it is done
• Open OTL again and click the Quick Scan button. Post the log it produces in your next reply.

THEN

Download and Install Combofix
 
Download ComboFix from one of the following locations:
Link 1
Link 2
 
VERY IMPORTANT !!! Save ComboFix.exe to your Desktop
 
* IMPORTANT - Disable your AntiVirus and AntiSpyware applications, usually via a right click on the System Tray icon. They may otherwise interfere with our tools. If you have difficulty properly disabling your protective programs, refer to this link here

• Double click on ComboFix.exe & follow the prompts.
  
• Accept the disclaimer and allow to update if it asks
• Allow the installation of the recovery console

• When finished, it shall produce a log for you.
• Please include the C:\ComboFix.txt in your next reply.[/b]
  

Notes:
1. Do not mouse-click Combofix's window while it is running. That may cause it to stall.
2. Do not "re-run" Combofix. If you have a problem, reply back for further instructions.
3.  If after the reboot you get errors about programmes being marked for deletion then reboot, that will cure it.



Please make sure you include the combo fix log in your next reply as well as describe how your computer is running now

Ok here is the most recent scan, with the most recent updates, from Malwarebytes.  Thank you

[Wayno11]

essexboy,

I did everything you suggested, and I am attaching the newest otl scan.  However, Combofix needed to download Recovery, and it is stuck at 22.7% download.  You said not to rerun it without reposting, so I am doing so.  Thanks

[essexboy]

OK lets try the manual installation, if this should fail then run combofix without the recovery console

Go to Microsoft's website => http://support.microsoft.com/kb/310994
 
Scroll down to Step 1, and select the download that's appropriate for your Operating System. Download the file & save it as it's originally named.
 
Note: If you have SP3, use the SP2 package.
 
 
---------------------------------------------------------------------
 
 
 
Disable your AntiVirus and AntiSpyware applications, usually via a right click on the System Tray icon. They may otherwise interfere with our tools
 

 
 

• Drag the setup package onto ComboFix.exe and drop it.
• Follow the prompts to start ComboFix and when prompted, agree to the End-User License Agreement to install the Microsoft Recovery Console.

 
 
 

• At the next prompt, click 'Yes' to run the full ComboFix scan.
• When the tool is finished, it will produce a report for you.

Please post the C:\ComboFix.txt in your next reply.

[Wayno11]

Ok got it to work.  Here is the combofix.txt file.

[essexboy]

That killed it 

How is the computer behaving now ?

[Wayno11]

Still getting the pop up I'm afraid, although about half as frequently.  And my web browser is not 100% right.  I seem to be missing a lot of icons and tabs on my web pages, especially games on Facebook.  One game I can not even play.

[essexboy]

Could you delete your current copy of OTL please and download a fresh copy

Also could you post a screenshot of the popup

Download OTL  to your Desktop

• Double click on the icon to run it. Make sure all other windows are closed and to let it run uninterrupted.
• Select All Users
  
• Under the Custom Scan box paste this in

netsvcs
%SYSTEMDRIVE%\*.exe
/md5start
services.exe
explorer.exe
winlogon.exe
Userinit.exe
svchost.exe
/md5stop
CREATERESTOREPOINT

• Click the Quick Scan button. Do not change any settings unless otherwise told to do so. The scan wont take long.
  
  • When the scan completes, it will open one notepad window. 
  • Attach that log

[Wayno11]

Ok.  I downloaded OTL again and here is the new log.

[essexboy]

Ok, I have attached two files.  One is the file created after running RUN FIX and rebooting.  The other is the OTL log after running QUICK SCAN.
