need help with IEXPLORE. exe virus

Hello everyone who just happens to run by this thread. I've been combing the internet looking for a solution to my problem with this virus. It began when I downloaded a faulty version of an MMORPG called SUN Online from a taiwanese website. The IEXPLORE virus kept popping up instances of IE all over my screen. As many at 30+ instances to be exact. After some tinkering by a buddy we killed that, but IEXPLORE still runs in my Task Manager's processes and it eats at my CPU. I've tried all I can. I tried PrevX, but I don't have the funds to purchase the program and I heard it is a really big help. I followed all 5 steps that were laid out on the forum. So, what can you intelligent people suggest that I do to take care of this nuisance? My log is below:

Re: need help with IEXPLORE. exe virus

Hello and welcome to TSF.

Please be informed that your system is infected with a password stealing trojan which may have severely compromised your system.

Quote:
High risks are typically installed without user interaction through security exploits, and can severely compromise system security. Such risks may open illicit network connections, use polymorphic tactics to self-mutate, disable security software, modify system files, and install additional malware. These risks may also collect and transmit personally identifiable information (PII) without your consent and severely degrade the performance and stability of your computer.
f this system is used for online banking or has credit card information on it, all passwords should be changed immediately by using a different and clean computer to make the changes. Banking and credit card institutions, if any, should be notified of the possible security breech. I suggest that you read this article too.

Although the trojan is identifed and can be cleaned, many experts in the security community believe that once infected with this type of Trojan, the best course of action would be a reformat and reinstall of the OS. In all honesty, if this were to be my computer, I would reformat and reinstall Windows XP.

Please let me know what course of action you would like to take.

Re: need help with IEXPLORE. exe virus

Whew luckily all I have done on this PC is use a giftcard with "points" on it. I'll re-format if there is absolutely no other way to get rid of this bug. I just need someone to let me know if there is. Thank you for your reply.

Re: need help with IEXPLORE. exe virus

Hi,

OK. If you had no sensitive information on the computer, we will begin with ComboFix.exe. Please visit this webpage for download links, and instructions for running the tool:

http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/comb...o-use-combofix


Please ensure you read this guide carefully and install the Recovery Console first.

The Windows Recovery Console will allow you to boot up into a special recovery (repair) mode. This allows us to more easily help you should your computer have a problem after an attempted removal of malware. It is a simple procedure that will only take a few moments of your time.

Once installed, you should see a blue screen prompt that says:

The Recovery Console was successfully installed.

Please continue as follows:
  1. Close/disable all anti virus and anti malware programs so they do not interfere with the running of ComboFix.
  2. Click Yes to allow ComboFix to continue scanning for malware.
When the tool is finished, it will produce a report for you.

Please include the following reports for further review, and so we may continue cleansing the system:

C:\ComboFix.txt
New HijackThis log.

Re: need help with IEXPLORE. exe virus

Bad news/good news. My uncle "knew" about combofix.exe. However, he didn't know about the recovery console. Needless to say, reformat was inevitable. That's what I get for letting someone else mess around.
Oh, well, my PC is as clean as its gonna get now, lol. Thank you guys for all your help and hard work.

Re: need help with IEXPLORE. exe virus

Hi,

You're welcome. Thanks for letting us know. As you say, you have a fresh start now.

Here are some steps to make your surfing more secure in future:

Make your Internet Explorer more secure - This can be done by following these simple instructions:

From within Internet Explorer click on the Tools menu and then click on Options.
Click once on the Security tab
Click once on the Internet icon so it becomes highlighted.
Click once on the Custom Level button.
Change the Download signed ActiveX controls to Prompt
Change the Download unsigned ActiveX controls to Disable
Change the Initialise and script ActiveX controls not marked as safe to Disable
Change the Installation of desktop items to Prompt
Change the Launching programs and files in an IFRAME to Prompt
Change the Navigate sub-frames across different domains to Prompt
When all these settings have been made, click on the OK button.
If it prompts you as to whether or not you want to save the settings, press the Yes button.
Next press the Apply button and then the OK to exit the Internet Properties page.

Avoid illegal sites, because that's where most malware is present.

* Don't click on links inside popups.
* Don't click on links in spam messages claiming to offer anti-spyware software; because most of these so called removers ARE spyware.
* Download free software only from sites you know and trust. Because a lot of free software can bundle other software, including spyware.

Keep your antivirus-program up-to-date and do regular scans with it. Please make sure that you have only one active antivirus program on your system.

IMPORTANT: You Need to Update Windows and Internet Explorer to protect your computer from the malware that is around on the Internet. Please go to the windows update site http://windowsupdate.microsoft.com/ to get the critical updates.

If you are running Microsoft, or any portion thereof, go to the Microsoft's Office Update site http://office.microsoft.com/officeup....aspx?lc=en-us and make sure you have at least all the critical updates installed (Free) Microsoft Office Update.

The following free realtime pestscanners prevent a number of malware-variants from entering your computer, in the first place:

SpywareBlaster A tutorial on installing & using this product can be found here: http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/forums/tutorial49.html
SpywareGuard here

If you haven't got one, already, install a firewall and keep it up-to-date. Please make sure that you have only one active firewall on your system.

A firewall will prevent unauthorized contact between your computer and internet. A tutorial on Firewalls and a listing of some available ones can be found here:
http://forum.malwareremoval.com/viewtopic.php?p=56#56
http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/forums/tutorial60.html

Test your firewall here to make sure that it's working properly

ATF Cleaner by Atribune is a useful utility to clean the temporary files and cookies on a regular basis.

But above all, keep all your software UP-TO-DATE at all time!!

A colleague of ours has excellent information and tips on the prevention of malware here

If you want to fight back the Malware Writers, please take a look here and read what you can do against it.

Please respond to this thread one more time so we can mark this thread as resolved.

Happy Surfing!
