start.html fix

[Budfred]

Apparently I forgot to post this... It is an automatic fix for that start.html issue. Since the Windoze patch blocks it, it isn't as much of a problem, but it will probably still crop up with people who didn't update, so here is the fix:

Please download this tool to fix the start.chm hijack.

http://tools.zerosrealm.com/startchmfix.exe

Download it to preferably the Desktop . Run it and it will extract the folder to the desktop.

Open the folder after extracted.

Please make sure all Internet Explorers are closed.

Double click the fix.bat

Only run it once or you will lose the backups although they shouldn't be needed.

Notepad will open at the end with a message and the bad file listing at the end. Please post that bad file listing line here. The Tool is designed so that if it is unable to remove the file, it will tell the user to reboot and will remove it on Reboot.

If no files show in the bad file listing then do a Reboot and do a search for either of these highlighted files and DELETE them:

C:\Windows\System32\ C_10230.DLL or
C:\Windows\System\crt32_v2.dll

Reboot and rescan with HijackThis and post a new log file.

Don't forget to delete all temporary internet files and offline content too.

Most Important, Go to Windows Update and install ALL critical updates.
