Can't remove Antivirus Software Pro

I successfully downloaded & used GP's Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware software 2 weeks ago to remove the blue-shielded "Antivirus Software Pro" virus that had infected my computer.

Unfortunately, this same computer got infected again yesterday (sidenote: I think it's happening when my kids go to one or more online game sites, including playhub.com. Any comment / confirmation by GP on this website and/or other game sites to absolutely avoid?)

Back to the problem: I clicked the Malwarebytes icon on my desktop thinking it would quickly eradicate the 'Pro' virus again; however, nothing happened. I tried removing the Malwarebytes (via Control Panel "Add or Remove Programs") and then downloaded the software again using the forum software link on your website. After a long time installing, it never launched automatically (as I remembering it doing 2 weeks ago) and double clicking the icon still produces nothing.

Looking for help! and - if when it's removed again) seeking any add'l advice on how to prevent this insidious #$@% virus from getting me again. Thanks in advance!

Hello Kill-em,

Welcome to Geek Police, my name is Origin and I will be helping you today. Please keep the following in mind:

• If you do not get a reply from me or another helper within 2 days, please reply to your topic with the phrase BUMP
  
• If you have any cracked/pirated software in your computer delete them or we will not help you.
  
• Only follow advise from Geek Police Staff and not a regular member.
  
• Do NOT run any tool without Geek Police supervision as it could hinder your system useless.
  

I did visit the website where your kids play games and I did notice it had a lot of ads, these ads can contain malicious files that could infect your computer. While you can block the ads, I recommend you tell your children to use this website as it is safer to be on: http://miniclip.com

Please download the current version of HijackThis from HERE

• Double click and run the installer.
  
• It will install to C:\Program Files\Trend Micro\HijackThis\hijackthis.exe
  
• After installing, you should get the user agreement, press accept and Hijack This will run.
  
• Select Do a system scan and save a log file. This will open a notepad file of everything Hijack This found, copy and paste it back here.
  

Origin,

Thanks for getting back and the tips on my kids' game sites. To be sure, I'm running 100% legal software (OS, etc.)

I'm communicating with you via my home-office computer which sits next to my kids' / personal computer (the one that's infected.) It's so bad right now, I'm having a hard time even getting a browser window to open your forum (to click on the link you advised). By the time I login to your website and try to click on my posts, etc. this $%&# virus 'kills' the IE page & replaces it with a mock IE warning screen with "recommended" action link that takes you to purchase the hoax Antivirus System Pro software!

I'll keep trying to do as you've instructed on the infected computer; but is there another way to get this Hijack This software downloaded to the infected machine?

P.S. please forgive the paranoia, but your website says to only follow instructions of tech support staff...how can I verify you are who you say you are? -Thanks!

Hello.
Please be assured, Origin is tech staff here. All members under tech staff have a green username and "Tech Staff" under their name. Where as I am a general moderator of the entire forum, and I help here too.

Here's cc of the logfile: Please advise. Thank you!

Good news (and bad?)...

I successfully followed Belahzur's instructions using HijackThis to checkmark and fix the processes indicated. It seems to have stopped the "Antivirus System Pro" dead in its tracks; and I seem to have control of my computer back. Thank you!!!!!!!!!

I then downloaded and installed Malwarebytes' software from the link provided and made "sure a checkmark [was] placed next to Update Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware and Launch Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware, then click[ed] Finish."

However, nothing happens (i.e. no add'l dialog boxes or screen options appear allowing me to "select 'Perform Quick Scan, then click Scan", etc.) So I removed the Malwarebytes' software using Control Panel's Add or Remove Programs (incl. rebooting computer as prompted to complete the uninstall process.)

I then went and downloaded using same MBAM link on GP forum post; it seemed to install fine with minor exception of saying "Malware folder already exists, do you want to copy files to this folder" (I said 'yes'). It then continued installing, including user agreement and then the dialog box with 2 checkboxes for "update" and "launch" (both checked) but again nothing happened. Note: I've left 1 IE window opened (to your website) when installing / and attempting to run MBAM. Would that make a difference? (I'll try it once more with all windows closed, but not sure it will matter.)

Any other ideas?

Hello.

• Download combofix from here
  Link 1
  Link 2
  
  1. If you are using Firefox, make sure that your download settings are as follows:
  
  * Tools->Options->Main tab
  * Set to "Always ask me where to Save the files".
  
  2. During the download, rename Combofix to Combo-Fix as follows:
  
  
  
  
  
  3. It is important you rename Combofix during the download, but not after.
  4. Please do not rename Combofix to other names, but only to the one indicated.
  5. Close any open browsers.
  6. Close/disable all anti virus and anti malware programs so they do not interfere with the running of ComboFix.
  
  
• We need to disable your local AV (Anti-virus) before running Combofix.
  
• See HERE for how to disable your AV. (Mcafee)
  
• Double click on ComboFix.exe.
  
• Follow the prompts. NOTE:
  
• ComboFix will check to see if the Microsoft Windows Recovery Console is installed.
  ***It's strongly recommended to have the Recovery Console installed before doing any malware removal.***
  
  **Please note: If the Microsoft Windows Recovery Console is already installed, ComboFix will automatically proceed with its scan.
  
  
  
• The Recovery Console provides a recovery/repair mode should a problem occur during a Combofix run.
  
  
  
  
• Allow ComboFix to download the Recovery Console.
  
• Accept the End-User License Agreement.
  
• The Recovery Console will be installed.
  
• You will then get this next prompt that asks if you want to continue the malware scan, select yes
  
  
  
  
• Allow combofix to run
  
• Post C:\combofix.txt back here.
  
  Note:
  Do not mouseclick combofix's window whilst it's running. That may cause it to stall.
  

Hello.

I did all as you instructed. Combofix.txt (found in Combo-fix folder) as follows:

ComboFix 09-07-03.03 - Rick Allred 07/03/2009 19:31:23.1 - NTFSx86
Microsoft Windows XP Home Edition 5.1.2600.3.1252.1.1033.18.767.530 [GMT -7:00]

AV: McAfee VirusScan *On-access scanning disabled* (Updated) {84B5EE75-6421-4CDE-A33A-DD43BA9FAD83}
.

Is my computer clean? Should I try to run MBAM now?..

P.S. I forgot to mention that as ComboFix was installing Windows Recovery Console it brought up dialog box that said something about detecting presence of "root" something (can't remember now) and said to take note / write down a listing of 7 files that might be needed upon restarting the computer. All were in folder C:\windows\system32\drivers\ and all began with "UAC" and had very long names (1 example: UACrumlkafkabenxfcmv.sys), etc.

When computer restarted I was never asked for the file names; and the computer seems to be running normally...

Hello.
Heh, just as I guessed, a rootkit was present.

The log wasn't full, either you didn't copy/paste it all, or Combofix didn't run fully correctly.

Please try running Combofix again.

Thanks for you ongoing help. I re-ran Combo-fix. Here's the resulting log. Please advise if any further action needed to ensure my computer is 'clean'. Thanks.

Hello.

Now open a new notepad file.
Input this into the notepad file:

KILLALL::

Driver::
drvdrv
npggsvc

File::
C:\LOGE1.tmp
C:\LOG8FE.tmp
C:\LOG195.tmp
C:\LOG154.tmp

Registry::
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\software\microsoft\windows nt\currentversion\svchost]
"drv"=-
[-HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\ControlSet001\Services\npggsvc]

RegNull::
[HKEY_USERS\S-1-5-21-1757981266-813497703-839522115-1004\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Shell Extensions\Approved\{E5F952F5-FF1F-E43C-4BD3-0249710167B2}*]

Save this as CFScript.txt, save it to your desktop also.
Then drag and drop CFScript.txt into combofix as seen below:


This will open combofix again, agree to it's terms and allow it to run.
It may want to reboot after it's done. (It will warn you if it wants to)
Post the resulting log back here.

Did as you instructed. Here's the log file:

Can you run a malwarebytes quick scan for me and post the log back here

Ran MBAM. Resulting log looks positive (see below). Pls advise if add'l action is needed.

I very much appreciate GP's support through this issue. I'm also very disappointed that my antivirus software provider (McAfee) failed twice to prevent the Anti Virus Software Pro infection and I am looking for a new provider. I have a friend in IT who recommends "AVAST". Does GP have an opinion on the 'best' antivirus / malware software?

Below is the result of the MBAM log. Pls advise if any action needed. Also, I'm very disappointed in my antivirus software (McAfee) as it has failed to prevent infections of the Antivirus Software Pro malware on two separate occasions. A friend of mine who works in IT recommended "AVAST". I also have Trend Micro PC-cillin on another machine. Does GP have any recommendation as to the best antivirus & malware software?

Thanks again for all your help!
