Hi there guys, my yahoo mail account got hacked last night & loads of spam emails were sent (spam link), this is my personal & business account, so this will have a major effect on me.
Yahoo also emailed me saying
"We detected a login attempt with valid password to your Yahoo! account from an unrecognized device on Mon, Mar 11, 2013 8:32 AM CET.
Location: Serbia (IP=178.148.103.66)"
In my sent box there doesnt seem to be any emails sent but many customers have replied saying they received the spam email. Any help here would be much appreciated, I have run a lot of searches on the subject but can't find any definite answers to prevent this happening again. I've changed my yahoo mail password, are there any other precautions? also, is there a way to see who this email was sent to? so I can email my customers with an explanation/apology.
Many thanks

Thanks for the reply, I did that immediately, I also created a security seal (I still don't fully understand that). So that should do the trick? Im running the free AVG security, do you think there is any chance I have something on my computer? thanks again. Chico

Hi there 2oldgeek :) thanks for the reply, I've downloaded hijackthis but im getting that message saying
" For some reason your system denied write access to the Hosts file. If any hijacked domains are in this file, HijackThis may not be able to fix this. If that happens, you need to edit the file yourself. To do this, click Start, Run and type: notepad C:\Windows\System32\drivers\etc\hosts and press enter. Find the line(s) HijackThis reports and delete them. Save the file as ?hosts.? (with quotes), and reboot."
I opened up the hosts file but I can't seem to find the hijack this reports they talk of, it's not on there or am I missing something maybe?
Thanks again for your help, it feels really awkward knowing all my customers have been receiving spam emails from me (a single dodgy link), these emails are not in my sent box though, I wish they was, then I would know who has been contacted so I can warm them that I was hacked & apologise etc. So this is much appreciated. Thanks again. Chico

You get that message because you have UAC turned on.. Just dis-reguard it, there are no reports..
Right click the HJT icon and run as administrator to by pass that error message.
Go to the Main Menu and click "do a system scan and save log file"
a log will pop up when scan is over. Copy it and post it here...

ps I may not get back to you tonight. but will soon as possible.

Chico1984,
You?ve got some unknowns, a bad search engine and utorrent toolbar.
Any p2p software is bad. utorrent will call bad url?s and Trojans to infect your computer.
Let?s run some clean-up programs and see just how infected you are:
First let's clean out your Temp Folders:
Download and Run Temp File Cleaner (TFC.exe)
Download Temp File Cleaner and save it to your desktop.
You might want to Save any unsaved work. TFC will close ALL open programs... including your browser!
Double click to run it.
If you have a lot of junk files to remove, it could take a while, so please be patient and let it finish.
When it's done, it will report the total size of files removed. If it asks to Reboot, choose to do so. This will remove files that could not be removed while Windows was running.
After Restart, log back in to your usual account.
After Rebooting run the following progs and save the Log files:
1.) Security Application Check:
Please download and save SecurityCheck.exe to your Desktop from one of the links below.
Link 1 http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/download/securitycheck/
Link 2 http://screen317.spywareinfoforum.org/SecurityCheck.exe
? Double-click SecurityCheck.exe then follow the on-screen instructions inside of the black box.
? A Notepad document should open automatically called checkup.txt
? Please post the contents of the checkup.txt in your next reply.
2.) Scan with AdwCleaner:
Please download adwcleaner from here and save to your desktop.
Alternate downloads are here or here.
? Double click on adwcleaner.exe to launch the application.
? Now click on the Delete tab.
? Please post the contents of the log-file created in your next post.
Note: The log can also be located at C: >> AdwCleaner[XX].txt >> XX <-- denotes the number of times the application has been ran, so in this case may be something like R1.
3.) Junkware Removal Tool
1. Please download jrt.exe ... and save it to your desktop.
2. Please temporarily disable your security/protection software as found here, to avoid potential conflicts.
3. If running Vista or Win7... right-click jrt.exe and select "Run as Administrator",
otherwise just double click it.
The tool will open and start scanning your system. Please be patient, it can take a while depending on your system.
On completion, a log file JRT.txt is saved to your desktop and will automatically open.
4. Please copy and paste the contents of JRT.txt and post in your next reply.
4.) Rerun HijackThis
Please run HJT and post a Fresh Log after cleaning.
Please post the 3 Logs I have asked for plus the fresh HJT Log and we?ll see how well it cleaned you and if anything is left over.
Tnx
2oG
