Win Xp SP3, Bit Defender 2010 Total Security, SpyBot S&D

For the last two days i have been unable to save any of my files in Front Page 2003.

Bit Defender informs me i have the above trojan and promptly quarantines it but every time i try and save again in FP i get the same result, plus a FP warning that it cannot open certain temp files (eg; wpZ9fs03.tmp). . Apparently the trojan is stored in Temp Internet Files Folder\Front Page Temp Dir\fpmboauu.tmp.

However, i am unable to locate the Temp Internet Files folder at all, it is not showing anywhere! I have some knowledge of the workings of computer but this has got me baffled. I instructed IE to move the Temp Internet Files folder to a different location but still do not see it. I have all folders and files showing, including hȋdden.

SpyBot did not detect it. Can anyone help please?

Many thanks :smile2:

There is a dangerous backdoor trojan on your system. This is a sign of total system compromise.
Backdoor trojans are very dangerous because they compromise system integrity by making changes that allow it to by used by the attacker for malicious purposes. Remote attackers use backdoors as a means of accessing and taking control of a computer that bypasses security mechanisms. This type of exploit allows them to steal sensitive information like passwords, personal and financial data which is send back to the hacker. To learn more about these types of infections, you can refer to: http://www.viruslist.com/en/viruses/glossary?glossid=189208417
I would counsel you to immediately disconnect this PC from the Internet and from your network if it is on a network. Disconnect the infected computer until the computer can be cleaned.
Then, access this information from a non-compromised computer to follow the steps needed.
If you do any banking or other financial transactions on the PC or if it should contain any other sensitive information, please get to a known clean computer and change all passwords where applicable. Do NOT change passwords or do any transactions while using the infected computer because the attacker may get the new passwords and transaction information. (If using a router, you need to reset it with a strong logon/password so the malware cannot gain control before connecting again.) Banking and credit card institutions should be notified to apprise them of your situation (possible security breach). To protect your information that may have been compromised, I recommend reading these references:

  • How Do I Handle Possible Identify Theft, Internet Fraud and CC Fraud?
  • What Should I Do If I've Become A Victim Of Identity Theft?
  • Identity Theft Victims Guide - What to do

Though the backdoor has been identified and can be killed, because of it's backdoor functionality, your PC is very likely compromised and there is no way to be sure your computer can ever again be trusted. It is dangerous and incorrect to assume the computer is secure even if the malware appears to have been removed. In some instances an infection may have caused so much damage to your system that it cannot be completely cleaned or repaired so you can never be sure that you have completely removed a backdoor trojan. The malware may leave so many remnants behind that security tools cannot find them. Tools that claim to be able to remove backdoor trojans cannot guarantee that all traces of it will be removed. Many experts in the security community believe that once infected with such a piece of malware, the best course of action would be a reformat and clean reinstall of the OS. This is something I don't like to recommend normally, but in most cases it is the best solution for your safety. Making this decision is based on what the computer is used for, and what information can be accessed from it. For more information, please read these references very carefully:

  • When should I re-format? How should I reinstall?
  • Help: I Got Hacked. Now What Do I Do?
  • Help: I Got Hacked. Now What Do I Do? Part II
  • Where to draw the line? When to recommend a format and reinstall?
Guides for format and reinstall: http://www.GeekPolice.net/tutorials-guides-f13/how-to-reformat-and-reinstall-your-operating-system-t15119.htm#95115

http://www.helpmyos.com/tutorials-software-alternatives-to-proprietary-f19/how-to-reformat-and-reinstall-your-operating-system-the-easy-way-t1307.htm#3143
However, if you do not have the resources to reinstall your computer's OS and would like me to attempt to clean it, I will be happy to do so. But please consider carefully before deciding against a reformat.
If you do make that decision, I will do my best to help you clean the computer of any infections, but you must understand that once a machine has been taken over by this type of malware, I cannot guarantee that it will be 100% secure even after disinfection or that the removal will be successful.

Please let me know what you have decided to do in your next post. Should you have any questions, please feel free to ask.

Thank you for the comprehensive reading :O). I have d/l Belarc and run a scan, results lower down the page.

I am the only user of my main computer, and use it mainly for my photographic work and surfing the web.I have online banking but i have no other personal or financial details on file. Would the cookie be infected?

If necessary i am prepared to format and re-install but its gonna be a pain!!

A couple of questions before i decide, if thats ok?

As the trojan was possibly delivered by email (according to BItDefender explanation) will it have infected all my mail? Not much point in saving them only to transfer the problem to a cleaned system.

Also, as Front Page is the only program that has so far given me the warning on this trojan, are my files infected as well? I do not get this warning on every page i amend, only when i seem to add a table and then save it.

Below is the Belarc Advisor profile, followed by the Benchmark Log, i am not sure if they will be helpful or not. Exactly what sort of files are affected?

Many thanks, your time and advice is gretly appreciated

Why are benchmarks important for IT security? Many current threats are not stopped by perimeter security systems such as firewall and anti-virus systems. Setting and monitoring configurations based on consensus benchmarks is a critical step because this is a pro-active way to avoid many successful attacks. The U.S. National Security Agency has found that configuring computers with proper security settings blocks 90% of the existing threats (IA Newsletters "Security Benchmarks: A Gold Standard." Click here to request a copy.) For our white paper, "Security Within", click here to request a copy.

What is the Center for Internet Security (CIS)? The CIS is an open association consisting of industry, government and academic members. Its mission is to help IT organizations more effectively manage their risks related to information security. Click here for details.

What are the CIS Benchmarks? The Benchmarks are developed by CIS members and staff and are consensus based, best-practice security configurations for computers connected to the Internet. Click here for details.

What is the CIS Benchmark Score? The Belarc Advisor has performed a security audit of your system using the CIS Level-I benchmark appropriate to your operating system. The result is a number between zero and ten that gives a measure of the vulnerability of your system to potential threats. The higher the number the less vulnerable your system.

How can you reduce your security vulnerability? The CIS configurations are available as Microsoft security template files from the CIS. Warning: Applying these security templates may cause some applications to stop working correctly. Back up your system prior to applying these security templates or apply the templates on a test system first.
Click here to download the templates from the CIS (requires registration and acceptance of the CIS license agreement).

Let's search deeper:

Please download SDFix and save it to your Desktop.

Double click SDFix.exe and it will extract the files to %systemdrive%
(Drive that contains the Windows Directory, typically C:\SDFix)

Please reboot to Safe Mode (tap the F8 key just before Windows starts to load and select the Safe Mode option from the menu).

  • Open the extracted SDFix folder and double click RunThis.bat to start the script.
  • Type Y to begin the cleanup process.
  • It will remove any Trojan Services and Registry Entries that it finds then prompt you to press any key to Reboot.
  • Press any Key and it will restart the PC.
  • When the PC restarts the Fixtool will run again and complete the removal process then display Finished, press any key to end the script and load your desktop icons.
  • Once the desktop icons load the SDFix report will open on screen and also save into the SDFix folder as Report.txt
    (Report.txt will also be copied to Clipboard ready for posting back on the forum).
  • Finally paste the contents of the Report.txt back on the forum with a new HijackThis log

Thought so..sorry that was a false alarm.

Please download the GMER Rootkit Scanner. Unzip it to your Desktop.

Before scanning, make sure all other running programs are closed and no other actions like a scheduled antivirus scan will occur while the scan is being performed. Do not use your computer for anything else during the scan.

Double-click gmer.exe. The program will begin to run.

**Caution**
These types of scans can produce false positives. Do NOT take any action on any
"<--- ROOKIT" entries unless advised!

If possible rootkit activity is found, you will be asked if you would like to perform a full scan.

  • Click NO
  • In the right panel, you will see a bunch of boxes that have been checked ... leave everything checked and ensure the Show all box is un-checked.
  • Now click the Scan button.
    Once the scan is complete, you may receive another notice about rootkit activity.
  • Click OK.
  • GMER will produce a log. Click on the [Save..] button, and in the File name area, type in "GMER.txt"
  • Save it where you can easily find it, such as your desktop.

Post the contents of GMER.txt in your next reply.

Now to get you off to a good start we will clean your restore points so that all the bad stuff is gone for good. Then if you need to restore at some stage you will be clean. There are several ways to reset your restore points, but this is my method:
  • Select Start > All Programs > Accessories > System tools > System Restore.
  • On the dialogue box that appears select Create a Restore Point
  • Click NEXT
  • Enter a name e.g. Clean
  • Click CREATE

You now have a clean restore point, to get rid of the bad ones:
  • Select Start > All Programs > Accessories > System tools > Disk Cleanup.
  • In the Drop down box that appears select your main drive e.g. C
  • Click OK
  • The System will do some calculation and the display a dialogue box with TABS
  • Select the More Options Tab.
  • At the bottom will be a system restore box with a CLEANUP button click this
  • Accept the Warning and select OK again, the program will close and you are done


To remove all of the tools we used and the files and folders they created, please do the following:
Please download OTC.exe by OldTimer:

  • Save it to your Desktop.
  • Double click OTC.exe.
  • Click the CleanUp! button.
  • If you are prompted to Reboot during the cleanup, select Yes.
  • The tool will delete itself once it finishes.

Note: If any tool, file or folder (belonging to the program we have used) hasn't been deleted, please delete it manually.

==

Please download TFC by OldTimer to your desktop
  • Please double-click TFC.exe to run it. (Note: If you are running on Vista, right-click on the file and choose Run As Administrator).
  • It will close all programs when run, so make sure you have saved all your work before you begin.
  • Click the Start
    button to begin the process. Depending on how often you clean temp
    files, execution time should be anywhere from a few seconds to a minute
    or two. Let it run uninterrupted to completion.
  • Once it's finished it should reboot your machine. If it does not, please manually reboot the machine yourself to ensure a complete clean.


==

Download Security Check by screen317 from SpywareInfoforum.org or Changelog.fr.
  • Save it to your Desktop.
  • Double click SecurityCheck.exe and follow the onscreen instructions inside of the black box.

Please read the following information that I have provided, which will help you prevent malicious software in the future. Please keep in mind, malware is a continuous danger on the Internet. It is highly important to stay safe while browsing, to prevent re-infection.

Software recommendations

AntiSpyware

  • SpywareBlaster
    SpywareBlaster is a program that prevents spyware from installing on your computer. A tutorial on using SpywareBlaster may be found here.
  • Spybot - Search & Destroy.
    Spybot - Search & Destroy is a spyware and adware removal program. It also has realtime protection, TeaTimer to help safeguard your computer against spyware. (The link for Spybot - Search & Destroy contains a tutorial that will help you download, install, and begin using Spybot).


NOTE: Please keep ALL of these programs up-to-date and run them whenever you suspect a problem to prevent malware problems.

Resident Protection help
A number of programs have resident protection and it is a good idea to run the resident protection of one of each type of program to maintain protection. However, it is important to run only one resident program of each type since they can conflict and become less effective. That means only one antivirus, firewall, and scanning anti-spyware program at a time. Passive protectors such as SpywareBlaster can be run with any of them.

Rogue programs help
There are a lot of rogue programs out there that want to scare you into giving them your money and some malware actually claims to be security programs. If you get a popup for a security program that you did not install yourself, do NOT click on it and ask for help immediately. It is very important to run an antivirus and firewall, but you can't always rely on reviews and ads for information. Ask in a security forum that you trust if you are not sure. If you are unsure and looking for anti-spyware programs, you can find out if it is a rogue here:
http://www.spywarewarrior.com/rogue_anti-spyware.htm

Securing your computer

  • Windows Updates - It is very important to make sure that both Internet Explorer and Windows are kept current with the latest critical security patches from Microsoft. To do this just start Internet Explorer and select Tools > Windows Update, and follow the online instructions from there.
  • hpHosts file replaces your current HOSTS file with one containing well known ad sites and other bad sites. This prevents your computer from connecting to those sites by redirecting them to 127.0.0.1, which is your local computer's loopback address, meaning it will be difficult to infect your computer in the future.


Please consider using an alternate browser
Mozilla's Firefox browser is a very good alternative. In addition to being generally more secure than Internet Explorer, it has a very good built-in popup blocker and add-ons, like NoScript, can make it even more secure. Opera is another good option.

If you are interested:

  • Firefox may be downloaded from here: http://www.getfirefox.com
  • Opera is available here: http://www.opera.com/download/
