HiJackThis Log After FULL Kaspersky Scan

Here is the hijackthis log taken right after the Kaspersky scan. Unfortunately there seems to be alot of malware left on the pc. You can see where Kaspersky removed malware (it’ll say (file missing) ) and where it left malware, for example the entry below has been left intact by kaspersky even though it’s a vundo trojan.

Video Review of OneCare

I just got done making a video review of Microsoft’s OneCare. OneCare has recently been hailed as one of the best anti-malware solutions on the market today. See how well it performed on a highly infected PC!

The video is broken up in 3 parts. The total length of the review is 13 minutes.

Part 1: The Install

Part 2: Starting and Running OneCare

Part 3: The Conclusion – did OneCare Work?

How we tested:
We used VMware Workstation and created a Windows XP sp2 pc. Malware was installed by visiting known malicious websites (drive-by downloads). OneCare was installed and fully updated in an effort to remove the malware on the Virtual Machine.Measure of Success
I measure success in a few ways:

  1. Removed Rogue Anti-Malware
  2. Removed Trojans/Viruses
  3. Removed Pop Ups/Unders
  4. Removed Website/Search redirection
  5. Normal Port Activity
