Virus and or malware??

descriptionVirus and or malware?? EmptyVirus and or malware??

I'm having a problem with my dad's computer. IE and Firefox won't connect to the internet, the only thing that I can connect with is AOL. I was trying to remove the existing anti-virus that was originally provided by his ISP (Norton) and upgrade to McAfee. I'm currently stuck with no Antivirus package, the firewall settings have been greyed out so I can't make any changes there. I've tried to restore the system to an earlier date. The problem still exists.

I've run Malwarebytes, Adaware and Spybot S&D, they've cleaned out some junk but the problem still exists. I found and removed Malware protect 2009.

I'm trying to avoid reformatting the hard drive and or bringing the computer to a pro. Can you help me?

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.

Hello.
Bad news.

Your computer has multiple infections, including a backdoor. A backdoor gives intruders complete control of your computer, logs your keystrokes, steal personal information, etc.

You are strongly advised to do the following:

  • Disconnect the computer from the Internet and from any networked computers until it is cleaned.
  • Back up all your important data except programs. The programs can be reinstalled back from the original disc or from the Net.
  • Call all your banks, financial institutions, credit card companies and inform them that you may be a victim of identity theft and put a watch on your accounts. If you don't mind the hassle, change all your account numbers.
  • From a clean computer, change all your passwords (ISP login password, your email address(es) passwords, financial accounts, PayPal, eBay, Amazon, online groups and forums and any other online activities you carry out which require a username and password).
Do NOT change your passwords from this computer as the attacker will be able to get all the new passwords and transaction records.

Due to its backdoor functionality, your computer is very likely to have been compromised and there is no way that it can be trusted again. Many experts in the security community believe that once infected with this type of Trojan, the best course of action would be to do a reformat and reinstallation of the operating system (OS). However, if you do not have the resources to reinstall your OS and would like me to attempt to clean your machine, I will be happy to do so.

To help you understand more, please take some time to read the following articles:

What are Remote Access Trojans and why are they dangerous
How do I respond to a possible identity theft and how do I prevent it
When should I do a reformat and reinstallation of my OS
Where to backup your files

Hello.

Go to Start > Control Panel > Add/Remove Programs and remove the following programs.

  • Adobe Acrobat Reader 3.01
  • J2SE Runtime Environment 5.0 Update 3
  • Java 2 Runtime Environment, SE v1.4.2_03
  • Java(TM) 6 Update 5
  • Java(TM) 6 Update 7
  • Viewpoint Media Player

Then download and install Adobe Reader 9.1

How is the machine running now?

descriptionVirus and or malware?? EmptyRe: Virus and or malware??

adobe reader won't download
internet explorer opens momentarily the shuts down
i also can't open internet options

i'm suspecting a firewall issue?

descriptionVirus and or malware?? EmptyRe: Virus and or malware??

more_horiz
I doubt a firewall issue.
If it was the firewall, IE would stay open but just say it can't find a connection.

I'm suspecting a rootkit hidden deep down.
Note: If Norton warns you of a "C:\cleanup.exe" trying to run on reboot, please allow it to do so. It's part of the avenger.

1. Please download The Avenger by Swandog46 to your Desktop
Link: HERE or HERE.

  • Click on Avenger.zip to open the file
  • Extract avenger.exe to your desktop

2. Now, start The Avenger program by clicking on its icon on your desktop.

  • Leave the script box empty.
  • Leave the ticked box "Scan for rootkit" ticked.
  • Then tick "Disable any rootkits found"
  • Now click on the Execute to begin execution of the script.
  • Answer "Yes" twice when prompted.

    The Avenger will automatically do the following:

  • It will Restart your computer.
  • On reboot, it will briefly open a black command window on your desktop, this is normal.
  • After the restart, it creates a log file that should open with the results of Avenger’s actions. This log file will be located at C:\avenger.txt
  • The Avenger will also have backed up all the files, etc., that you asked it to delete, and will have zipped them and moved the zip archives to C:\avenger\backup.zip.
3. Please copy/paste the content of c:\avenger.txt into your reply.

Hello.
No rootkit.

I think you were right in the first place. Norton might be causing this.
This line is from your DDS log:

FW: Norton Security Online *enabled*

FW stands for FireWall, so lets try disabling the Norton Firewall (Note: Do not disable the AV, just disable the firewall)

Guide for how to do so in this link:

http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=114351&st=0&p=649845&#entry649845

Once it's disabled, let me know if you have internet access.

I can't access the firewall settings through Norton or control panel??

descriptionVirus and or malware?? EmptyRe: Virus and or malware??

You can't get to it via opening Norton in the tray and clicking the "Norton Internet Security" tab?

If you can't, we can try the long way around and uninstall Norton all together and replace with Avira.

in Windows security center, under Windows Firewall it says:
"For your security, some settings are controlled by group policy"
all of the settings are greyed out.
My other computers are not like this!!

I had to use the first method because I don't have XP Pro,
It worked I know have access to the firewall settings.

I tries to run IE and it still shuts down as soon as it opens up.

That's windows firewall. It's the Norton firewall that might causing the problem.

I went to Norton firewall access button, nothing happens after clicking.

Want to try uninstalling Norton and see what happens?

Lets do it!!

descriptionVirus and or malware?? EmptyRe: Virus and or malware??

Completely Uninstall Norton software using:

Instructions

  1. Please download and save SymNRT.exe to your desktop.
  2. Close all programs and double click on the tool.
  3. Follow the on-screen instructions.
  4. Restart the computer if asked.
  5. Then delete the SymNRT.exe tool from your desktop.
  6. Open the Program Files folder on your local disk ( normally C: )
  7. Find and delete the following folders (if present):
    [list]
  8. Norton AntiVirus
  9. Norton Internet Security
  10. Norton SystemWorks
  11. Norton Personal Firewall


Note: Do not browse the net after this, because you won't be protected. Just let me know if IE stays open.

Ok IE opened for about 45seconds then it closed, after that I tried again, just as soon as the Google page appears it shuts back down.

Hmm.

Please install Avira antivirus otherwise you won't be protected.

1) Antivir PersonalEditionClassic
-Free anti-virus software for Windows.
-Detects and removes more than 50,000 viruses. Free support.

It is strongly recommended that you run only one antivirus program at a time. Having more than one antivirus program active in memory uses additional resources and can result in program conflicts and false virus alerts.

Please run a GMER Rootkit scan:

Download GMER's application from here:
http://www.gmer.net/gmer.zip

Unzip it and start the GMER.exe
Click the Rootkit tab and click the Scan button.

Once done, click the Copy button.
This will copy the results to your clipboard.
Paste the results in your next reply.

Warning ! Please, do not select the "Show all" checkbox during the scan.

If you're having problems with running GMER.exe, try it in safe mode.
This tools works in safe mode. Other rootkitrevealers don't.
The log might be huge, if so, please upload it to mediafire.com for me.

I think it maybe easier to use Firefox rather than Internet Explorer, if this next tool doesn't find anything then IE maybe damaged by the malware.


  • Download combofix from here
    Link 1
    Link 2
  • We need to disable your local AV (Anti-virus) before running Combofix.
  • See HERE for how to disable your AV. (Avira)
  • 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.

    Virus and or malware?? Rcauto10

  • 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

    Virus and or malware?? Whatne10

  • 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.

  • Press "Fix Checked"
  • Close Hijack This.

Reboot normally.
Your startup should be quicker, but we've also killed 2 lines that have effects on Internet Explorer.

Let me know how it is after a reboot.

Hello.
Just to clarify, you can access firefox.com, but not download it?

Find both of these folders in bold:

c:\program files\Mozilla Firefox(2)
c:\windows\ie8(2)

Right click each and remove the (2).
Any luck now?

Yes, I can access firefox.com, but nothing happens when i try to download.

I'll try finding those files and give it a try.

New idea.

Go to Start > Run. In the run box, copy and paste this in:

ipconfig /flushdns

Hit enter.

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

    Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

    [-HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Internet Settings\ZoneMap\Domains]
    [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Internet Settings\ZoneMap\Domains]
    [-HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Internet Settings\ZoneMap\Ranges]
    [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Internet Settings\ZoneMap\Ranges]
    [-HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Internet Settings\ZoneMap\Domains]
    [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Internet Settings\ZoneMap\Domains]
    [-HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Internet Settings\ZoneMap\Ranges]
    [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Internet Settings\ZoneMap\Ranges]
    [-HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Internet Settings\ZoneMap\EscDomains]
    [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Internet Settings\ZoneMap\EscDomains]


  • Save this as fix.reg, save it to your desktop.
  • DO NOT run it yet.


Now disconnect from the internet. If you are on a router, pull the cable out temporarily.

Back on the Desktop, double-click on the fix.reg file you just saved and click on Yes when asked to merge the information.
Now try connecting to the internet again.

Connect to the internet again.

Hello.

If that doesn't work, try this.

Go to C:\Program Files\Internet Explorer
look for ieproxy.dll
Move it to the system32 folder - C:\Windows\System32

Now go to Start > Run and type in:

regsvr32 ieproxy.dll

and press Enter.
Now try launching IE7 now.

i don't see c:\Windows\System32

the closest folder is c:\Windows\System

I tried to open internet options via the control panel and it won't open.
That's got to play into this mess somehow.

Hi!! I've been very busy today with family over for the easter holiday.
I really would like to try to fix this mess for my dad.

If you're still interested in helping, I'll pop back on tomorrow evening.

Thanks again, you've been a great help. Honored
