Steve/Trom/Bomen,
1. Try to find all the DLL above
2. unregister all the dll above
3. remane all the dll above
4. delete all the dll above

The popup from the taskbar usually come from the dll.
Hope this will help.

Ok, so I recently found this buggar on my computer, decided to Google it (had no idea where it came from), and found this, thank God!

My cmd prompt wasn’t working the way that it was supposed to work apparently, so I stared leafing through how to delete a .dll file, and stumbled across this:

HI ALL

I had this sacka yesterday in my pc. I have deleted it today (manually)
download the free removal tool. RUN IT!
It wil find a lot of crap.
Just ckeck where the file or the registery is, then go there and delete it!!!!!!!
Maybe some of you must stop some processes! ckeck for that above in the forum.
If you want to open REGISTERY. Go to RUN. => type: regedit=> Enter
Here you can locat all the stuuf that SPYHUNTER has found and you can delete it manually!!!!
It worked by me and the icon is gone 2!!!

It will take a whyle but if you wanne get ride of it JUST DO IT.

One more thing. There is a .DLL File in SYSTEM 32!!!
This .dll has an other name by differend computers.
First its not possible to delete this .dll but when you do all what is sayed above then restart pc and you can delete the foker.!!
GOOD LUCKKKK!!!!!!!

Hi there,

I need help now!

I have this demon virus it gives me a pop up box saying two things

“Windows can not start click here to search for a fix”
“Click here to resart windows”

I click and nothing fixes it, the pop up box stops me from doing anything on the deasktop or start menu! I also have the VirusProtectpro 3.3 in the back ground asking me to register or pay $49.95 to fix the problem. I have read this thread yet if i cannot get rid of this blocking pop up then I can go to system restore etc!

What can i do, I have had this new lap top all of three days and this happens. Hope there is hope for my issue please help

By Brian on Jul 3, 2007 | Reply

Chris,

Virus Protect Pro is a rogue antispyware application. The most important thing is to locate and delete the offended dll and it usually stores in system32 folder. What you can try is this: 1) Do a search on dll’s that located under system32 folder. 2) Sorted it by date; 3) Pick the dll’s that dated when your machine got infected. 4) Rename it then reboot your machine. 5) If it works, then deleted the files. Be sure to stop the VirusProtectPro processes first. Otherwise, it might prevent you from operating your PC properly.

After you complete the steps above, you can download Spyhunter to scan your hard drive to ensure it’s free of spyware.

Hope this helps. Good luck!

Hi Brian,

Thanks for the tip on displaying the DLL files by date. In my case the files nuqjici.dll and zpeolvh.dll did not exist. The DLL file that generated the pop-up message was xnvaogd.dll (identied by just sorting all files by date in the system32 folder and that one was the latest DLL file).

I renamed the file and rebooted. After the restart NOD32 identified the renamed file as malicious and suggested to remove it which of course I did. The program has now been removed completely it seems, fingers crossed!

By Mo on Jul 4, 2007 | Reply

1st, I can’t find VirusProtectPro.exe in the processes or anything with a similar meaning.
2nd, I found the dll file which must be the one that drives the icon by sorting all of the dll by date. But the problem is I could neither delete nor rename it.
Can anyone help, please?

Hi guys..please help me.I could see Virus Protect pro.3.3 has been downloaded in my system & i have something poppingup from my task bar.My comp is infected with Trojan,which will reduce the performance of my computer.I deleted it from my c: and removed from control panel.SO what steps i should follow now

By ChrisC on Jul 17, 2007 | Reply

I’ve managed to get this onto two computers in the last day. It seems to have come in attached to an ActiveX download.

I get all the bogus virus pop-ups and my homepage has been taken over and can’t be changed. Also, it seems to be affecting a lot of programs that just won’t start – including a number of spyware programs. Adaware, Noadware, Norton, Windows Defender all run so slowly and even though they find problems they either haven’t removed them or they haven’t worked.

Both computers are running as slow as lame dogs – it takes for ever for adaware and some other checking programs to do anything. Norton only scanned 800 files in about 3 hours.

With all of this going on, do I have more problems than just VirusProtectPro?

By ChrisC on Jul 17, 2007 | Reply

I forgot to includethe fact that if I try to remove the two programs I can find in control panel software removal, I get a message to say I have to reboot before removing them – that of course does nothing. They just can’t be got rid of from the software list by trying to delete them this way.

Download SpyHunter and run it. It’ll locate all the files then go to registry using “regedit” and delete those files.
There will be a folder namely “Video ActiveX Access” in program files but you can delete it directly so reboot your system in safe mode and delete all the files inside this folder using “del *.*” command.
It worked for me. So guys Gud Luck.

I haved tried everything in the symantec and microsoft web sites in order to remove the pop ups of the virusprotectpro virus. Norton was succesful in cleaning the trojans and I double checked each file mentioned on both microsoft and symantec sites. I am left with the pop ups which pop up system alerts ever 2 minutes. Any help in removing them would be much obliged. Thanks

You guys that are still getting pop up alerts, rename the program that causes it, and end the process with task manager, then delete it. This should stop the pop up alerts; I had the same problem, I didn’t realize renaming the file would make a big difference, hope this helps.

Cant find a program but a couple of cookies directed for the web adress of the pop up…Can not rename the cookies.. Deleting the cookies doesnt help…They come back…Symantec requires 100 euros to fix the problem on line..:)

What’s the difference between downloading the SpyHunter Spyware Detection Utility and removing the virus manually?

By CWilliams on Jul 25, 2007 | Reply

(Tuesday) Vista Home Premium. Got this VirusProtect issue when a ‘missing plug-in – click here to download’ showed up in Firefox when trying to access an mpeg (which I had done before, so why did it suddenly want a plug in?). That should have made me suspicious, but sadly, no.

(Today) I rebooted into safe mode (F8) and restored system to 2 days before infection. Then I restarted, again in safe mode. I found the VirusProtect .exe files, and deleted them. I searched for the specified .dll files and didn’t find any of them. I searched for all .dll later than 22 july 07, and checked every one of them through Google. All were OK, and interestingly enough, most were a Vista upgrade to address a data leak security exploit.

I then checked for the registry keys – again, all negative.

I then held my breath and rebooted into Vista, ‘normal’ mode. So far, everthing seems OK.

Thanks for publishing all the information – even though it was largely negative in my case it was invaluable to be able to check that known problems were not present on my machine.

One point remains a puzzle to me: if I have MacAfee running on this computer, how does an infected ActiveX/plug-in get downloaded and installed?

BTW I maually deleted the two desktop shortcuts to the asafetyproduct website and also emptied the recycle bin before going in to normal mode.

Wonderful program. I was glad to find the spyware. However, upon trying to remove it wants me to buy the full blown $30 version. I really don’t want to have to spend money if I don’t have too. Are there other options for free removal of Virus Protect Pro spyware?

khtbpdl.dll has to be the cause of that persistent task-bar pop-up. I just deleted it and the pop-up is gone. Previously, Spybot got rid of all files with VirusProtectPro in their name and apparently all dll’s except khtbpdl.dll (which was the only survivor showing up in a Start-menu search of “files including dll, modified in the last week”) but the pop-up just kept coming till I did the rename /delete thing.
Thx all who suggested that and the timed search for dll’s.
Funnily enough the “Unregister dll files” process did not work for khtbpdl.dll (error message said “DllUnregister . . . was not found”) – persistent little item, eh? Built-in defences or what? I was SO relieved when it didn’t refuse to delete!

Sorry, I’m not good with computer programs. When my laptop got infected, I just tried to delete the whole “VirusProtectPro” folder under C:Program files without checking up on how to get rid of it properly. But the stupid icon still keeps popping up, and my laptop seems slower now and i get weird error messages abt some exe files not running and having to terminate.

3) I’ve found the “System Restore” function that Ray mentioned but tried to restore to 2 different dates but was told restore incomplete as “No changes made to the computer”

4) I tried to find any .dll files in System32 folder modified on the day that my laptop got infected and found nothing.

By the way, make sure that when you sort out the files that you look at the date which the file was last MODIFIED not CREATED. This was my mistake but then i used SpyHunter and it found the file for me which was the wzhtjqo.dll . I renamed it wzhjqo.doc and dragged it onto my desktop, and then i restarted my computer and deleted it. Now my computer is just fine. Thank you all very much!

I discovered this early, and tried performing a system recovery to an earlier date. Surprisingly it worked perfectly, and it has worked for trojans I’ve had before. Is it really that easy? I was worried that maybe it just seemed to work and that perhaps the trojans are just hidden, so I reverted the system restore and removed it using the online advice.
Just wondering, does a system restore really fix it?

OK! I have XP so I don’t know if this will work for Vista PCs, but I installed the Spyhunter (freebee) and ran it. Then I ran regedit from “Run” and proceded to delete all the listings that Spyhunter was showing, but I still had the flashing icon in my tray. I did a search of each .dll file that is listed on this site (mine was the first one, thank god). I found it in the C:/windows/system32 folder and renamed the extension to .doc. At this point the icon was flashing but it looked different. After restarting the PC it was gone completely.

Just be patient and start with the first .dll file and if that one doesn’t work search the next one and so on. Good luck and I hope I was some help.

I just wanted to thank you for publishing this information … I couldn’t have managed without it. I got involved with this problem on an old Window 98 system — I never was much good with systemy stuff, even in the day, and have forgotten much of what I knew.

This pc had only a low-grade infection, just the systray popup … I guess because it wasn’t able to install fully on Win98. What I had to get rid of was C:\WINDOWS\System\tmxxxh.dll … went into safe mode, renamed it tmxxxh.dll.bad, and everything seems fine now.

3. Still had blinking shield.

4. Purchaased SpyHunter, ran and caught remaining VirusProtectPro registry entries (that I had missed) (also found a bunch of other junk, cookies, and a reg entry)

5. Still had blinking shield

6. followed insructions here, found .dll by looking at date time created, not exact time of infection (off a few hours)

7. Renamed xxx.dll to remove_xxx.dll

8. Rebooted and worked.

However, the annoying pop-up was still there. By searching all my .dll’s and checking the modified date, I found one for today in the SYSTEM32 directory. It was called Zdii.dll.

I have removed all the above-mentioned files and have searched for all the .dll files, which none I can find so I assume they were removed by Spybot, Adware, SpywareBlaster and WinEnhance Clean Registry.

Yet, the warning popup on the bottom right still appears. So, when I turn on the computer I right click the Task Bar, click “Customize” the Notification area and select Hide Always next to the warning icon which has “no title” (I have Windows XP).

Does anyone have a permanent solution?

There are no .dll files modified or created on the date of the infection in System32, but there are files modified at that time in the Viewpoint Media Player folder in the Program Files folder. I can’t delete that folder because AxMetaStream_0305000D.dll is being used. How do I get rid of this .dll and Viewpoint? Could this be causing my trouble with the popup warning icon on the Taskbar? And what is Viewpoint?

PLEASE HELP!

I’ve done everything that is suggested here and installed all the programs and deleted all the bad registry files and managed to contain the problem a bit but the VirusProtect icon is still in my task bar. I searched for all the .dll files written above and found nothing.
But I found a file called “__c00EAAE8.dat” in the system32 folder which is from the exact date and time that VirusProtect attacked my computer but is not a .dll file.
I’ve tried to rename it and delete it, even in safe mode, but it said the file is being used by another program (and the only active program in safe mode was that damn VirusProtect!).

HijackThis writes about it -
O20 – AppInit_DLLs: C:\WINDOWS\System32\__c00EAAE8.dat

Is there a program or a way to rename an active file or somthing?

For hem, Jake, Kara, and others with “Vista” that VirusProtectPro 3.7 has disabled Windows Explorer!
The following worked for me..Start your computer in “Safe Mode” (Tap your “F8″ key before Windows starts loading, and use your up arrow key to select “Safe Mode” and press “Enter”}

NOTE..The “Nag” that Explore.exe has been stopped will still pop up every few seconds, but you can keep closing the dialog box by clicking on the “X” in the upper right corner.

You will have time to open “Internet Explorer” between the nags, and once you get Internet Explorer opened, you can actually still use it behind the nag screen. Type “C:\” (without the quotes) in the address bar and press “Enter” (It worked for me best when I kept closing the nag)

Now you should see the contents of your “C” drive in explorer fashion…simply click on your “Windows” folder, and then your “System32″ folder. Now scroll down past the folders displayed here to find the FILE named “ddllup.dll” (Keep closing the “Explorer Nag as it pops up).

Highlight the ddllup.dll file (Make sure it is the ONLY FILE HIGHLIGHTED) and press the “Delete” key on your keyboard…VIOLA…your nag has been killed, and you have your “Windows Explorer” function-ability restored. (ddllup.dll is responsible for “unregistering” your “explorer.exe”.

Now you can access your computer, and follow the advice of the FINE people in these forums

I personally downloaded the “Free-SpyHunter-Scanner” (Links supplied in these forums). My scan is not completed as I type this, but any and all further info for complete removal of this “GARBAGE” is to be found in these excellent forums…THANK YOU ALL FOR YOUR TIPS AND EXPERTISE!! bluberry
