OS: xp media centre edition


Explorer problems, avg cant update, pc freezes.

Hi there,
The other night, while google image searching, I got asked to install an activex control. Not to intelligently, I allowed the install and all hell broke loose. My webbrowser was redirected to some fake antivirus software page and a scanner installed on my pc. I removed the scanner through add/remove programs. Then the little windows warning symbol came up saying that I may have been infected by spyware. So I downloaded avg free edition (I didnt have an anti virus) and it installed and scanned finding nothing. I tried to update avg as it said that I was not protected because I had no updates. And my pc froze,,,,,,,,,
Following a reboot, I cannot open My computer, internet explorer, avg etc. And the few programs that do load up, do not run properly. And I cannot access the internet. Oh and avg popped up saying it had discovered a trojan, but the window was incomplete and the pc froze again.
I downloaded the gmer.exe and dds.exe from the links in this forum and had to transfer them via flashdrive to my pc in safemode.
The programs wont run in normal startup so I ran them in safe mode too.
I am running windows xp media center edition 2005.
I have also run avg several times in safe mode and found nothing.

Heres the dds

Any and all help greatly appreciated

Oh yeah, dont know if its important, but If I load iexplorer, it shows on the taskmanager menu, but cannot be seen or use otherwise, and there are 2 or 3 of the same program in taskmanager that I havnt seen before, hmop or something like that. And in add remove programs there is an ieplorer add on with no file size. And if you try to remove it, it says you must restart before uninstalling it. Queue an endless loop of restarting before uninstalling etc.

Re: Explorer problems, avg cant update, pc freezes.

Thanks for the speedy reply sUBs.
I had to run it in safemode because it wouldnt run in the normal mode. I hope thats ok, I didnt see anything saying that it couldnt in the instructions. The first run crashed the pc at the end, so I ran it again after a restart. It worked ok, and the log says it removed the hpmon.exe that was bugging me before. Here is the log.

I couldnt install the windows recovery in safe mode as I had no internet connection. Also I have just noticed that I have xp pro, not media centre. I didnt know that :D
And the utorrent and utherverse programs had been uninstalled previously, I dont know why they are still showing up.
Thanks again :)

Re: Explorer problems, avg cant update, pc freezes.

Open NOTEPAD and copy/paste the text in the quotebox below into it:

Code:
FILE::
d:\windows\system32\cwegus.dll
Registry::
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run]
"AnvTrgr"=-
[-HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\software\microsoft\shared tools\msconfig\startupreg\KernelFaultCheck]
[-HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\software\microsoft\shared tools\msconfig\startupreg\brastk]
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\software\microsoft\shared tools\msconfig\services]
"wuauserv"=-
"wscsvc"=-
"TapiSrv"=-
"srservice"=-
"Spooler"=-

"avg8emc"=-
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\software\microsoft\security center]
"AntiVirusDisableNotify"=dword:00000000
"UpdatesDisableNotify"=dword:00000000
Save this as "CFScript"





Referring to the picture above, drag CFScript.txt into ComboFix.exe

When finished, it shall produce a log for you, C:\ComboFix.txt. Post that log in your next reply.


---------------


Using Internet Explorer, visit http://www.kaspersky.com/service?chapter=161739400

Vista users right click on the Internet Explorer shortcut, and choose Run As Administrator.

**Note**

To optimize scanning time and produce a more sensible report for review:
  • Close any open programs
  • Turn off the real time scanner of any existing antivirus program while performing the online scan.

Click Accept, when prompted to download and install the program files and database of malware definitions.
  • Click Run at the Security prompt.
  • The program will then begin downloading and installing and will also update the database.
  • Please be patient as this can take several minutes.
  • Once the update is complete, click on My Computer under the green Scan bar to the left to start the scan.
  • Once the scan is complete, it will display if your system has been infected. It does not provide an option to clean/disinfect. We only require a report from it.
  • Do NOT be alarmed by what you see in the report. Many of the finds have likely been quarantined.
  • Click View scan report at the bottom.
  • Click the Save Report As... button.
  • Click the Save as Text button to save the file to your desktop so that you may post it in your next reply.


---------------


In your next post, please include fresh logs from:
  1. Online scan
  2. ComboFix's log
Please provide details of any problems you encountered whilst performing the above steps & update us on how the computer behaves now

Re: Explorer problems, avg cant update, pc freezes.

Wow quick reply

I transfered the CFScript file across to the pc in safe mode, rebooted into normal mode and tried the drag and drop. This caused the computer to freeze for about twenty minutes, before I rebooted into safe mode again. In safe mode it ran perfectly. The log follows.
I rebooted into normal mode to try and access the internet for the other scan. Iexplorer starts running according to task manager, but is not visible on screen. My computer now opens though, but it just has the little flashlight searching endlessly. The system is immensely slow in normal mode.

Re: Explorer problems, avg cant update, pc freezes.

Your symptoms should be gone now. I'll wait to see the results of the Kaspersky scan.

Re: Explorer problems, avg cant update, pc freezes.

I think you missed the beginning of my last post

I cannot access My computer, it comes up with the explorer screen, with a little flashlight which just keeps moving side to side endlessly. I can run a drive through the run command but thats it.
Also internet explorer isnt visible. But it appears in the task manager. Avg still will not update.

Re: Explorer problems, avg cant update, pc freezes.

Did ComboFix ask for a file to be uploaded? Is it uploaded yet?

If not so, please locate & double click on this file - C:\QooBox\CF-Submit.htm

D:\Qoobox\Quarantine\[4]-Submit_2008-12-06@18.22.zip

This is the file that needs to be uploaded. We want to get it to the antivirus companies so that they may add detections for this malware. Please upload it to this website: http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/subm....php?channel=4

Kindly include a link to this topic in the message.

Re: Explorer problems, avg cant update, pc freezes.

Thank you.

Your system is clean & in good order. We just need to remove Qoobox by uninstalling ComboFix. Kindly follow these simple steps in order to keep your computer clean and secure:

  1. Uninstall ComboFix ... do not skip this step
    This process will perform some post cleanup measures.
    Do this by going to to Start > Run & typing in ComboFix /u


  2. ANTIVIRUS SOFTWARE
    It is imperative that you update your Antivirus software at least once a week (Even more if you wish). If you do not update your antivirus software then it will not be able to catch any of the new variants that may come out.


  3. Microsoft Windows Update ? http://www.windowsupdate.com
    Visit regularly. This will ensure your computer always has the latest security updates. If there are new updates to install, install them immediately, reboot your computer, and revisit the site until there are no more critical updates.

  4. SPYWAREBLASTER
    SpywareBlaster prevents the installation of malicious ActiveX, adware, browser hijackers, dialers, and other potentially unwanted software. Blocks spyware/tracking cookies & restricts the actions of potentially unwanted sites.

    Unlike other programs, SpywareBlaster does not have to remain running in the background. A tutorial on installing & using this product can be found here ? http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/forums/tutorial49.html

Update all these programs regularly. Make sure you update all the programs I have listed regularly. Without regular updates you WILL NOT be protected when new malicious programs are released.

Follow this list and your potential for being infected again will reduce dramatically. Here are some additional utilities that will further enhance your safety.
  • http://www.trillian.cc ? Trillian or http://www.miranda-im.com ? Miranda-IM - These are Malware free Instant Messenger programs which allow you to connect to multiple IM services in one program! (AOL, Yahoo, ICQ, IRC, MSN)

  • http://www.mozilla.org/products/firefox/ - Firefox - Use this alternate browser. Whilst Internet Explorer is not a bad browser, almost every exploit crafted is targeted to take advantage of an IE weakness.

  • http://java.com/en/index.jsp - Sun's Java - It's much more secure than Microsoft's Java Virtual Machine.

  • http://www.aumha.org/downloads/erunt-setup.exe - ERUNT - A useful freeware utility for users of Windows 2000/XP. It's made up of two parts - ERUNT & NTREGOPT.

    ERUNT will create daily complete backups of your computer's Registry. Whilst System Restore does the same thing, a corrupt registry file may prevent Windows from booting & this effectively renders disables System Restore. With ERUNT, you're able to restore the damaged Registry.

    NTREGOPT works by recreating each registry hive "from scratch", thus removing any slack space that may be left from previously modified or deleted keys. In other words, it compacts the Registry to a small size which allows Windows to load & perform faster.

To find out more information about how you got infected in the first place and some great guidelines to follow to prevent future infections you can read this article by Tony Klein - http://computercops.biz/postlite7736-.html

After doing all these, your system will be optimised against future threats.

It's okay to delete the Hijack This folder in a couple weeks if everything is working okay.
Have a safe & happy computing day.

Kindly respond to this thread once more so we can mark this thread as resolved.

Re: Explorer problems, avg cant update, pc freezes.

You need a blank space between combofix and /u

Like so ...

ComboFix <space>/U
