Follow the steps below exactly in the order I have written:

Step #1

Download SmitfraudFix (by S!Ri) 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.

NOTE: If the tool fails to launch from the Desktop, 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.


Step #2

Download Deckard's System Scanner (DSS) and save it to your Desktop.
Close all other windows before proceeding.
Double-click on dss.exe and follow the prompts.
When it has finished, dss will open two Notepads main.txt and extra.txt -- please copy (CTRL+A and then CTRL+C) and paste (CTRL+V) the contents of main.txt and extra.txt in your next reply.

In your next post please include the following reports:
SmitfraudFix report
dss scan reports main.txt and extra.txt

Trojan.w32.looksky is another name for the Smitfraud/zlob trojan. SmitFraudFix removes trojan.w32.looksky, but you should also check your system for other malware, and use ATF cleaner to clean your temp files when finished.

Instructions to remove Trojan.w32.looksky using SmitFraudFix (by S!Ri)

SmitFraudFix only works with Windows XP or 2000

Download SmitfraudFix:

Use this URL to download the latest version (the file contains both English and French versions):
http://siri.geekstogo.com/SmitfraudFix.exe

Use:

    * Search:
          o Double-click SmitfraudFix.exe
          o Select 1 and hit Enter to create a report of the infected files. The report can be found at the root of the system drive, usually at C:\rapport.txt


Clean:

    * Reboot your computer in Safe Mode (before the Windows icon appears, tap the F8 key continually)
    * Double-click SmitfraudFix.exe
    * Select 2 and hit Enter to delete infect files.
    * You will be prompted: Do you want to clean the registry ? answer Y (yes) and hit 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): Replace infected file ? answer Y (yes) and hit Enter to restore a clean file.
    * A reboot may be needed to finish the cleaning process. The report can be found at the root of the system drive, usually at C:\rapport.txt

    *  Optional:
          o To restore Trusted and Restricted site zone, select 3 and hit Enter.
          o You will be prompted: Restore Trusted Zone ? answer Y (yes) and hit Enter to delete trusted zone.

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.

I am here to help you sort out the problem our system is facing in the hands of this wicked virus. Well, i will prescribe to you KASPERSKY ANTIVIRUS 6 OR 7. This will remove it for you.

Thanks and hope you find it useful
