Moderators rridgely Posted March 14, 2007 Moderators Share Posted March 14, 2007 If you write "CCleaner" in google and press search, your browser will close? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
monica Posted March 14, 2007 Author Share Posted March 14, 2007 If you write "CCleaner" in google and press search, your browser will close? No, it find all site and when I just click on one of this, IE will close. It is just the world "CCleaner" that make windows crashing. So if select the icon on the desktop, as soon as the path tag appear, windows close! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fireryone Posted March 15, 2007 Share Posted March 15, 2007 Even though you believe you are spyware/virus free you should still submit a "hijack this" log for analysis in the appropriate area of the forum anyway. fireryone Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nut75 Posted March 15, 2007 Share Posted March 15, 2007 I have the same problem. Every time I write the word "CCleaner", followed by Enter in Windows, the program will close. If I right click the CCleaner folder, it close. If I write www.CCleaner.com in IE, or other browsers, they close. I'm writing from another PC, becouse i can't click on a link named or containing CCleaner. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I try to start the program and explorer (ie desktop) will restart. I'm thinking about a virus or a dialer even if neither Avast (local) or PandAntivirus (web) found anything. A friend's of mine tell me that IE rel. 7 is corrupt. He suggest me to remove and reinstall IE because the problem is probably due to the interconnection among Internet Explorer and Explorer. Any suggestion? Do you know a really good antidialer removal program? In the meantime I' will try with Asquared antivirus and Firefox browser.

fireryone Posted March 16, 2007 Share Posted March 16, 2007 Not sure if its related but I found this Microsoft Article while checking up on an application error in EventViewer, Which you might want to do as well, (Right Click "My Computer" click "Manage" open "EventViewer" open "Application" and check what sort of errors there are. fireryone Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nut75 Posted March 16, 2007 Share Posted March 16, 2007 I downloaded A-Squared and A-Squared HiJackFree 2.1 and put them in my Pendrive. Until next monday I can't try them, because now I'm at home, but the presumed infected PC is in my office, in another town. I hope next monday I'll should post some useful news. Thanks!

Moderators rridgely Posted March 16, 2007 Moderators Share Posted March 16, 2007 Ok, so you can't open hijackthis. Now that makes sense. Asquared is ok, but I've seen it have problems with false detections. Please just follow the spyware removal guide. (superantispyware and AVG Antispyware for sure) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moderators rridgely Posted March 16, 2007 Moderators Share Posted March 16, 2007 See if you can run the new beta version of hijackthis.(found on filehippo.com) If so you can post a log for me to see. If that wont run, let me know and I'll show you how to make it run. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whenever I have any question about whether or not it's a false positive, I double check the file(s) at http://virusscan.jotti.org/ and/or http://www.virustotal.com. Hope that helps!

buford Posted March 23, 2007 Share Posted March 23, 2007 I have the same problem. I used A-Squared, but it doesn't help to fix that problem. I discovered, that this "virus" is "integrated" in the process explorer.exe. When you kill the process explorer.exe, you can start hijackthis from the cmd.exe. But also hijackthis helps not to fix that problem. Knows anybody more? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moderators Andavari Posted March 23, 2007 Moderators Share Posted March 23, 2007 I'm starting to wonder "if Microsoft is perhaps blocking CCleaner in some update", of course there's zero proof or evidence to support such a theory however there's allot of mentioning of CCleaner just doing a search on Microsoft.com.

This does make sense, since i keep my XPPro Sp2 fully updated, and CCleaner seems now completely unable to find index.dat files. Wonder this isn't a "bug" of last version 1.39.502, cause the same happens with 1.38.485 and 1.37.456.
