services.exe overload
a couple of days ago my computer started slowing down dramatically. services.exe memory usage started increasing up and up until around 700,000 K. The computer pretty much freezes up. I ran avast and had a couple of hits for Win32:Trojan-gen and one Win32:Sinowal-CR. Now services.exe doesn't increase as much, but also uses ~13%CPU. Also, I can no longer hibernate. It just freezes on the "preparing to hibernate" screen.
Any help would be appreciated. I have followed steps 1-5 and will paste the log results.

Re: services.exe overload
You ran ComboFix twice. I need to see the results of that first run.
Click Start>Run and copy/paste the following into the Run box, click OK: C:\Qoobox\ComboFix2.txt The report should pop up for you. Please post the contents of that report in your next reply, along with an update on system behavior. |

Re: services.exe overload
Before I got your reply, I ran a virus scan by PrevixCsi and it found a 'RootKey' thing which I removed and now services.exe seems to be acting normal again. However, I cannot boot in Safe Mode, computer hangs while loading up the drivers.

Re: services.exe overload
I can't find what it removed. I found the log of the scan it did before it "cleaned up" my system, maybe this will help. the log is attached, and below is what it said it found.
Summary: ROOTKIT-\\.\PhysicalDrive0\MBR - [512] >> Hidden Disk Sectors Note: Some of the above entries may be from previous scans or cleaned infections. End of PrevxCSI Log - http://www.prevx.com |

Re: services.exe overload
If there were an issue with Safe Mode boot, it would have been indicated in the second ComboFix.txt, and the main.txt as well.
Have you tried to entering Safe Mode since the 2nd run of ComboFix? |

Re: services.exe overload
Actually, not being able to load Safe Mode has been a problem for 2 years and is unrelated to the services.exe problem, just thought you might know something about that. Mainly just want to make sure I fixed the services.exe overload problem and that my scans look good. If you have any ideas about the safe mode thing that would be great too. I think it might be my hard drive. I ran the dard drive self test in the BIOS and it got a Fail message.

Re: services.exe overload
Since the focus of this section is malware removal, you'd really do best talking to the folks in the Hard Drive Support
======================== Your logs are clean. If there aren't any more problems, please continue with these final instructions and helpful links: The following procedure will clear out ComboFix.exe, as well as the backups and quarantines created by the fix. It will also reset your System Restore by flushing out previous restore points (which contain the infections) and create a new restore point. Click Start > Run and copy/paste, or type the following bolded text into the Run box and click OK: ComboFix /u -------------------------------------------------------------------- To help protect your computer in the future I recommend that you get the following free programs if you do not already have them: McAfee Site Advisor--free version. The folks there check out websites and based on their findings, rate it as Safe, Unknown, Caution, or Bad. SpywareBlaster 3.5.1 to help prevent spyware from installing in the first place. Install & update SpywareBlaster with the latest definitions. After you have updated, click the button - enable protection for all unprotected items.
IESpyAD Zoned Out to block access to malicious websites so you cannot be redirected to them from an infected site or email. This severely impairs attempts to infect your system as it basically prevents any downloads (Cookies etc) from the sites listed, although you will still be able to connect to the sites. Update, and scan with your onboard Anti Malware and Anti Virus programs regularly. Without regular updates you will not be protected when new malicious programs are released. In light of your recent issue, I'm sure you'd like to avoid any future infections. Please take a look at these well written articles: PC Safety and Security--What Do I Need? HOW DID I GET INFECTED IN THE FIRST PLACE? by Tony Klein MAKING INTERNET EXPLORER SAFER Understanding and Using Firewalls **Be very wary with any security software that is advertised in popups or in other ways. They are not only usually of no use, but often have malware in them. ----------------------------------------------------- Follow the list above and the potential for infection will reduce dramatically. |
