firefox redirect, cannot restore point, cannot log into most virus sites

Hi there, 1st timer here and would like to thank you all in advance.

My symptoms;

The Firefox home page <hXXp://en-US.start2.mozilla.com/firefox?client=firefox-a&rls=org.mozilla:en-US:official> goes in circular redirect with google.com. In which I get a redirect loop message.

When clicking on search result for spybot or some (not all) spyware removal site, I get redirected to <hxxp://72.233.75.196/click.php?c=be1b2e69092574e8f8456a2a7f00>, but most times it goes direct to msn.com.au

When starting a new tab and i copy the url to the address, I get an address not found error. I only get this error on some spyware removal sites. This action works on other sites like news.

I was able to install Spybot but it cannot download the includes. So, I downloaded the includes from another machine and installed it. But, when I run Spybot, it just goes minimised in the same place as I can see my norton 360 minimised (right lower corner where I can see the clock, webcam, network and other icons.)

I tried windows defender and had the same problem with downloading a required file.

Thanks for any help. Here is the DDS

Re: firefox redirect, cannot restore point, cannot log into most virus sites

Hello and Welcome. Please subscribe to this thread to get immediate notification of replies as soon as they are posted. To do this click Thread Tools, then click Subscribe to this Thread. Make sure it is set to Instant Notification, then click Subscribe.

Before beginning the fix, read this post completely. If there's anything that you do not understand, kindly ask your questions before proceeding. It is IMPORTANT that you don't miss a step & perform everything in the correct order/sequence.

Please note that the forum is very busy and if I don't hear from you within three days this thread will be closed.

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

One or more of the identified infections is a backdoor trojan.

This type of infection allows hackers to remotely control your computer, steal critical system information and download and execute files without your knowledge.

If you do any banking or other financial transactions on the PC or if it should contain any other sensitive information, please get to a known clean computer and change all passwords where applicable, and it would be wise to contact those same financial institutions to apprise them of your situation.

You can read this: How Do I Handle Possible Identify Theft, Internet Fraud and CC Fraud?

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

Please note that these fixes are not instantaneous. Most infections require more than one round to properly eradicate.

Stay with me until given the 'all clear' even if symptoms diminish. Lack of symptoms does not always mean the job is complete.

Kindly follow my instructions and please do no fixing on your own or running of scanners unless requested by me or another helper at this forum.

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

Please visit this webpage for download links, and instructions for running combofix:

* Ensure you have disabled all anti virus and anti malware programs so they do not interfere with the running of ComboFix.

Please include the C:\ComboFix.txt in your next reply for further review.

Re: firefox redirect, cannot restore point, cannot log into most virus sites

Hi there

thanks for the help. I run combofix and the log is below. However, at the start, there was a message that it found some 'rootkit' or something like that and had to reboot. When it rebooted, I think norton 360 run, and Combofix operation may have been compromised. Anyway, here it is.

Cheers

Re: firefox redirect, cannot restore point, cannot log into most virus sites

Looks like everything worked fine.

I have a question...did you customize the install directory of Spybot Search & Destroy?

Uninstall the following via the Add/Remove Panel (Start->(Settings)->Control Panel->Add/Remove Programs) if they exist:

J2SE Runtime Environment 5.0 Update 10
J2SE Runtime Environment 5.0 Update 11
J2SE Runtime Environment 5.0 Update 6
Java(TM) 6 Update 2
Java(TM) 6 Update 3
Java(TM) 6 Update 5
Java(TM) 6 Update 7
Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment 6 Update 1


These are all outdated, and security risks by having them installed still. Unfortunately, Java does not uninstall these older versions when you update, nor tell you that you should. Going forward, Java will overwrite existing installs, so removing older versions should not be required after this.

Leave Java(TM) 6 Update 11 alone, as it has the most recent security updates.

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

Please perform this online scan to help look for remnants

Establish an internet connection & perform an online scan with Firefox or Internet Explorer at Kaspersky Online Scanner

**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 Settings. Uncheck Mail databases.
  • Next, 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.

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

How is the machine behaving?

Re: firefox redirect, cannot restore point, cannot log into most virus sites

Hi there, first up, thanks again for your assist.

I did customise the Spybot directory in an attempt to make it run properly, but that did not work. I was able to download and install it. However, it can't download the definitions or includes. And when trying to run it, it just minimises and I couldn't get it to scan.

I did the uninstalls as you suggested.

The machine is working as well as before it got infected. Sites are no longer getting redirected. I am able to create restore points again. It looks like its free of infections.

here is the scan report

Re: firefox redirect, cannot restore point, cannot log into most virus sites

It may be that in customizing the directory of the Spybot install, it's become confused, if you did it after the fact rather than during the install. It may need to be uninstalled and reinstalled, or the dir renamed to what it originally was, for Spybot to function properly.

Re: firefox redirect, cannot restore point, cannot log into most virus sites

I uninstalled and reinstalled Spybot and its working now. Thanks. FYI that I had to rename the dir after several installs that failed. But the rename did not fix the prob.

Shall I delete Combofix? I don't think I can use it without someone like you looking at a problem prior to running it?

Thanks

Re: firefox redirect, cannot restore point, cannot log into most virus sites

Glad to hear it's working again. The failed installs were likely due to rootkit interference.

ComboFix is not a general purpose tool, and correct, it should not be used in an unsupervised environment.

The other items Kaspersky found are in ComboFix quarantine, and will be addressed by uninstalling ComboFix as instructed below

Other than that....

Your logs appear clean.You should be good to go. We still have a few items to address.

Go to -> Run -> copy/paste in the following single line command & click OK

combofix /u



This will uninstall ComboFix. It will also implement some cleanup procedures and reset System Restore points.

Now that your system is clean, to help protect your computer in the future I recommend that you follow these steps and look into the following free programs:
  • 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.

  • SpywareBlaster 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
  • McAfee Site Advisor--free version. The folks there check out websites and based on their findings, rate it as Safe, Unknown, Caution, or Bad.
  • Winpatrol

    Winpatrol is heuristic protection program, meaning it looks for patterns in codes that work like malware. It also takes a snapshot of your system's critical resources and alerts you to any changes that may occur without you knowing. You can read more about Winpatrol's features here.

    You can get a free copy of Winpatrol or use the Plus version for more features.

    You can read Winpatrol's FAQ if you run into problems.

  • MVPS HOST FILE
    The MVPS Hosts file replaces your current HOSTS file with one that will restrict known ad sites form serving you unsolicited advertisements. Basically, this prevents your computer from connecting to those sites by redirecting them to 127.0.0.1 which is the IP of your local computer.
    • Download Host.zip to your desktop.
    • From your Desktop right-click (hosts.zip) and select:
      Extract All from the menu.
    • Click Next, click Next, select the option:
      "Show Extracted files", click Finish
    • This will open the newly created hosts folder on your Desktop.
    • Double-click on the included mvps.bat file, this will rename the existing HOSTS file to HOSTS.MVP, then it will copy the included updated HOSTS file to the correct location on your machine.
    • Once updated you should see another prompt that the task was completed.
  • ANTIVIRUS SOFTWARE
    It is very important that you have anti-virus software running on your machine. This alone can save you a lot of trouble with malware in the future. 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 new malware that may have come out.

    Do not install more than one AntiVirus program because they will conflict with each other.

  • Scan here http://secunia.com/software_inspector/ for out of date & vulnerable common applications on your computer

  • 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.aumha.org/downloads/erunt-setup.exe - ERUNT - A useful freeware utility for users of Windows 2000/XP//Vista. 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.


In light of your recent troubles, I'm sure you'll like to avoid any future infections. Please take a look at these well written articles
If you want to fight back the Malware Writers that have made your life a misery, 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.
