| Hello all,
| I have been searching the web trying to find an answer to my trojan
| problem. I have found many forums but none of their solutions have
| worked.
|
| Here is my problem:
|
| Somehow my computer became affeceted with this trojan. I use firefox,
| but I consistently get pop up ads in internet explorer while on the
| web with firefox from "ad.oinadserver.com" and "advertisement by
| outerinfo" I think they are from the same company.
|
| Additionally, every time I run my virus scanner (I have run Ad aware,
| Symantec Antivirus, XoftSpySe, Spyware Doctor), the programs find the
| problem and remove them, but as soon as I restart my computer and open
| firefox, the popup ads continue again. They tell me its a Vundo
| Trojan, so I have also run vundofix, but to no avail.
|
| I have also tried going to the outerinfo website, as someone
| recommended, but their link to download the uninstall file does not
| work (big surprise).
|
| This file, "ssqpm.dll" I have tracked down, and is related to the
| problem but I cannot delete it. I found it located in C:/Windows/
| system32
|
| Does anyone have any other solutions to this problem? I reformatted
| just about 3 weeks ago (not virus related though) and I am in no mood
| to do it again.
|
| Thanks for any help
1. Install the Windows Recovery Console.

11. If you are using any version of Sun Java that is prior to JRE Version 6.0,
then you are strongly urged to remove any/all versions.
There are numerous vulnerabilities in them and they are actively being exploited.
It is highly suggested that you update to the latest version which is Sun Java JRE/JSE
Version 6.0 update 2 (jre 6u2)
Simple check, look under...
C:\Program Files\Java
The only folder under that folder should be the latest version.
Such as...
C:\Program Files\Java\jre1.6.0_02
