Firstly, apologies for the multiple thread, but i can't seem to reply in this thread here:
http://www.GeekPolice.net/virus-spyware-malware-removal-f11/double-whammy-malware-doctor-microsoft-security-essentials-hijacker-t23661.htm

For some assistance, and also to guide anyone else that has this issue I did the following:
1. Reboot to safe mode as i couldn't kill the processes.
2. Follow the delete instructions here: http://www.spywarevoid.com/remove-fake-microsoft-security-essentials-alert.html#manual_removal
3. Run Combofix
4. This is where i'm up to now - i had to put in some missing internet settings in my TCP/IP properties to get the internet working again.

Q1: I've attached the Combofix log per instructions in the link above. What's the next step? Do i need to scan further? delete more files?

Q2: I did get two error messages upon reboot, do i need to do anything here?

Hello.

  1. Close any open browsers.
  2. Close/disable all anti virus and anti malware programs so they do not interfere with the running of ComboFix.
  3. Open notepad and copy/paste the text in the quotebox below into it:

    Code:


    KILLALL::

    File::
    c:\windows\Rxokofumutokarat.dat
    c:\windows\Tsonokogikewejog.bin
    c:\windows\Khotub.exe
    c:\windows\Kjupoa.exe
    c:\windows\Khotua.exe
    c:\windows\system32\infosoft2.dll
    c:\windows\system32\imagehlph.dll
    c:\windows\Tasks\{62C40AA6-4406-467a-A5A5-DFDF1B559B7A}.job

  4. Save this as CFScript.txt, in the same location as ComboFix.exe

    Malware Doctor + Microsoft Security Essentials hijacker Cfscriptb4i

  5. Referring to the picture above, drag CFScript into ComboFix.exe
  6. When finished, it shall produce a log for you at C:\ComboFix.txt
  7. Please post the contents of the log in your next reply.

Wow thankyou so much for getting back to me so quickly! I have done as instructed, the log is attached. "Khotub.exe" was caught by AVG upon startup too. The log:

Done! It found two objects, i'm not sure they are an issue, but i had them deleted anyway:

C:\Program Files\Unlocker\eBay_shortcuts_1016.exe Win32/Adware.ADON application deleted - quarantined
F:\Installs\_Data Recover and Delete\Unlocker v.1.8.7.exe Win32/Adware.ADON application deleted - quarantined


There was no long file in "C:\Program Files\ESET\ESET Online Scanner", only:
OnlineScanner.ocx
OnlineScannerUninstaller.exe

I think my problem is resolved?

Many thanks for your help if it's over!!

How is the machine running now?

Seems to be fine, sometimes it slows down heaps with firefox open, a lot of HD noise, but I might just be noticing something that's always been there. I ran Spybot and it found no hits. I might be paranoid, but will run AdAware and AVG too.

I think thus far it's fixed. Very much appreciative of your help!
