The installed code is definitely: <object id="DDownload_UL1" classid="clsid:00000EF1-0786-4633-87C6-1AA7A44296DA" codebase="http://www.addictivetechnologies.net/DM0/cab/ATPartners.cab"; HEIGHT=0 WIDTH=0></object> However, there is no exploit here. I loaded this with a default honeypot image of XPSP2 with IE as an Admin and nothing else installed other than the drop down that asked me if I really wanted to trust this site for installing an executable. One must assume that you are installing these "theme packs" via some BHO (Browser Helper Object) that you installed previously or put the site on the "Always trust content from this provider". Perhaps someone else can explain where I am missing the exploit, because a quick glance over seems to indicate there is none for XP SP2. (I did not test this on SP1) Spybot and Ad-aware do not catch and kill WinRebates and WinAd spy/adware properly, but I have a batch command that will do it for you. Included is a .zip of each IP contacted along with full URL request and output. It also contains the contents of this email and the batch file with these commands: (You'll want to rename the .txt to .bat) -------------------------------------------- cd "C:\Program Files\Winad Client" taskkill /T /F /IM WinClt.exe taskkill /T /F /IM WinAd.exe erase WinClt.exe erase WinAd.exe cd .. cd Web_Rebates taskkill /T /F /IM WebRebates0.exe taskkill /T /F /IM WebRebates1.exe erase WebRebates0.exe erase WebRebates1.exe cd .. rd /Q /S "Winad Client" rd /Q /S "Web_Rebates" cd "C:\Windows\system32" taskkill /T /F /IM fjdria.exe taskkill /T /F /IM ezSP_Px.exe erase fjdria.exe erase ezSP_Px.exe
