1. Looked at C:\WINDOWS\system32, and found the following suspicious files:
>dir C:\WINDOWS\system32
10/02/2006 10:42 PM 86,068 fcissfvg.dll
10/03/2006 10:31 PM 86,036 lyssmlnb.dll
10/12/2006 09:52 PM 98,324 yjsallam.dll

2. Looked at IE > Internet Options > Programs > Manage Addon, found the yjsallam.dll entry, and disabled it.

3. Zipped all 3 suspicious files into a zip file, bho_200610.zip, and tried to delete them:
>del C:\WINDOWS\system32\fcissfvg.dll (deleted)
>del C:\WINDOWS\system32\lyssmlnb.dll (deleted)
>del C:\WINDOWS\system32\yjsallam.dll (not deleted because it is in use)

4. Closed all Internet Explorer windows and File Explorer windows, and ran HijackThis:
Find and check the yjsallam.dll in the log Click the "Fix checked" button

5. Ran HijackThis again:
Go to Config >> Misc Tools>> Delete a file on reboot
Select file: C:\WINDOWS\system32\yjsallam.dll
Click Yes to reboot the system


6. Verified the following places:
HijackThis report: clean
C:\WINDOWS\system32 directory: clean
Internet Explorer add-on list: clean
