Well, I just thought I'd mention it since I haven't seen anyone else mention it in their replies.

The efforts of yours (you and all the members) are much appreciated !

Your comment is appreciated since it gives us a chance to check into it... It is possible that it just recently happened, so no one else reported it because there was nothing evident... Whatever the situation is though, we can address it now that we know about it...

Hi! Just find this tutorial, and it is fantastic for a housewife-computer-user like me!!
Anyway, i am trying really hard and you are a great help.
but I am stuck not far from the beginning!!!:


http://www.allsecpros.com/bholist.txt (right click> save target as)

Open the text file and go to edit>find then copy the CLSID (e.g. {00000762-3965-4A1A-98CE-3D4BF457D4C8}) or file name e.g. ddm3dia.dll into the search box that appears. Click "Find next". If the BHO name is found then you will notice a letter at the start of the line. This letter will be one of the following-


When I open that link and go to edit and find, all I get is the line at the buttom left of the page. and it doesn´t find anything.
If I go to edit and find in my hijackthis notepad, I have got your little window with the find stuff, but it doesn´t find anything and doesn´t give me the letters X,L,O... either!


So I am stuck there!! and don´t know what to do anymore!
Thanks for your help, and I will " see" you soon!!


Just find something : if I go to the other link you gave: http://www.allsecpros.com/toolbarlist.
it takes me to the same place that the link which ends with "bholist"

Thank you for bringing it to our attention.

Thanks Jedi!

I have no words to thank you, I have just started to learn and you are making it a lot easier.

I really love this tutorial, but it's starting to show its age.

Dead sites linked to in the tutorial
-------------
hometown.aol.co.uk/jrmc137/hjttutorial/tutorial.htm -- The link to the tutorial (the mirror is still up).
allsecpros (compromised, according to the first post) -- The only BHO list, the CWS domain list, the IE toolbar list.
computercops.biz -- The only CLSID list and the startup list.
www.fbeej.dk -- The "Extra protocols and protocol hijackers" ("O18s") list.
www.spywareinfo.com -- Information about The O20, O21, and O22 entries.
www.antispyware.nextdesigns.net -- For research on NT Services.

Most of the dead sites have replacements listed either in this thread or in the tutorial itself. Will anyone ever update the tutorial?

[Budfred]

No, that isn't likely... Ascell is not really around anymore, so someone else would need to do it and then it would be an entirely different tutorial... It may be worthwhile to unpin it since it is so outdated however...

[Beta-Carrot!]

That's a shame, anyway, all of the dead sites I listed seem to be well replaced by http://sysinfo.org/ and http://www.systemlookup.com/. The only exception to that mostly good news is that I see no replacement for the CWS domain list, but if your possibly dealing with cool web shredder, you can just ask on the forums I guess.
