How To Find and Remove SearchFind.info

[nightowl]

Searchfind is easy to remove once you know what to look for. Below are 5 examples of Searchfind

1. Notice they are all O2 - BHO

2. Look at the CLSID number, The numbers are all different but they all have 2 things that look different than a regular CLSID number:

a. notice the LETTERS are all NON CAPS

Most CLSID Numbers are in CAPITAL LETTERS

b. Notice the file at the end begins with the Letter Q

Check out the examples below:

O2 - BHO: (no name) - {6c7f8d60-e296-11d8-bc31-005070e60fdd} - C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM\Q84225087.DLL

O2 - BHO: IEHelper - {26995b65-ea2b-4873-a4ae-f1bc72def401} - C:\WINNT\system32\Q21554734.dll

O2 - BHO: (no name) - {5ddf31de-47ee-4403-8666-99acd5787cb7} - C:\WINDOWS\System32\Q2578796.dll

O2 - BHO: (no name) - {a2700829-46fc-430b-9ef0-930a39a9473b} - C:\WINDOWS\System32\Q89675687.dll


O2 - BHO: IEHelper - {26c01bb0-bde0-436c-b255-06af63d967f5} - C:\WINDOWS\System32\Q17532125.dll


All of these are different but all are SearchFind. Use Hijack This to Fix these. Once you know what to look for its easy to kill

Also A Few cases had this CLSID number. If your log shows this delete it also.

I have to ask...

DO YOU REALLY THINK, they will read this??

We've done it Over and OVER and if they looked they could see the patterns.
This may help THOSE FEW that look threw all the posts, but how many will KNOW what to do??

[nightowl]

I think it will help some of them. Its allready got 15 views. Time Will Tell I guess. If Google and Dogpile pick it up it should get alot of hits........Jim omg:
