Was I attacked?

Hey guys,just wanna clear a doubt,I don’t know if this shd be in the troubleshooting section but still..I was just browsing through the net through opera when I minimised it and was abt to open my documents when I suddenly got a message through opera saying..

“FiReBuG owns ur browser”

WTF!!!,I couldn’t open opera nor close the msg so I ctrl+alt+del and then I didn’t see the msg again..can someone tell me wht’s going on?

most probably a spyware or adware…scan ur pc

Update your Opera to the latest version/build as well. Could be a exploit in the older version. Do you use a firewall ?

@Ice-no spyware or adware detected

@Blade-I have d’loaded and installed the latest version now,the one i was using was version 8.51 and I don’t use a firewall.

^^ It has to be a Virus/SPyware/Adware.

What softwares are you using to scan?

Hmm always use a firewall or atleast enable the default winxp sp2 firewall.

Allright,I’ve d’loaded another spyware remover named spybot search and destroy,it detected 2 spywares..

1.Alexa related
2.Hitbox

Well,I removed it,now looks like there’s no other probs.

@goldy-I was using spybazooka but it didn’t detect anything,so now I’m on spybot search and destroy

@Blade-I’m currently using win2k..I use winxp only for bf2 :stuck_out_tongue: …but the firewall is enabled in tht whereas I don’t use any in 2000.

can you post the sites you were browsing

ohh ya can i talk abt my problem here… if its ok

anyways.. i got this winxp + sp2 cd with me.. now a days whenever i install winxp.. and shut it down , the first time.. it always shows me an end program

diolog box .. stating " end program - shouldnt be seen" or “you should not see me” something likethis… .. wtf is this???

no spyware/virus/adware detected! :frowning:

this is also a spyware it seems..try using a diffrent scanner like monkey did…

immediately post ur process status .. check for any trojans .. also google the exact name firebug to see if u find any similar names in any forums.
one more thing umm try to mask ur ip or use some anoymity while browsing .. are u on static ip or dynamic?

@madmaonkey and @chic_magnet

can you post here your hijackthis log file for assessment.

@Hacker-I was browsing TE and csbanana.

@x86-I think I’m on static IP

@Medpal-Eh!!! Uh..could you speak in english my good man…In other words where is the hijackthis log file located?

lolz…monkey dload the Hijack this software and run it and then post its log..:stuck_out_tongue:

lol @madmonkey

download hijackthis from here.

extract it to a separate directory like x:/Hijackthis

then run the utility.
save the scan log and attach it here or copy paste here.

ehehehe :grinning_face_with_smiling_eyes:

Thx medpal,will do it and paste as soon as possible.
