Crowd or party sounds when screen blanks out

Ever since a few "friends" were viewing funny websites without my permission, the laptop computer will emit sounds from the speakers like sounds from a party, or "crowd noise". This may happen an hour after I have left the computer alone. When I walk up to the computer and tap a key to get the screen back on, the malady is gone. I generally leave the computer on with only the desktop in view and IE shut down.

I think I have correctly provided everything. Thanks in advance

Re: Crowd or party sounds when screen blanks out

Download and Run ComboFix

Download ComboFix from one of these locations:

Link 1
Link 2
Link 3

Here you can find a tutorial about Combofix: HOW TO USE COMBOFIX
  • You must download it to and run it from your Desktop
  • ComboFix SHOULD NOT be used unless requested by a forum helper.
  • Close/disable all anti virus and anti malware programs so they do not interfere with the running of ComboFix. A guide to do this can be found HERE
  • Double click on ComboFix.exe and follow the prompts.
    • As part of it's process, ComboFix will check to see if the Microsoft Windows Recovery Console is installed. With malware infections being as they are today, it's strongly recommended to have this pre-installed on your machine before doing any malware removal. It will allow you to boot up into a special recovery/repair mode that will allow us to more easily help you should your computer have a problem after an attempted removal of malware.
    • Follow the prompts to allow ComboFix to download and install the Microsoft Windows Recovery Console, and when prompted, agree to the End-User License Agreement to install the Microsoft Windows Recovery Console.
    • If the Microsoft Windows Recovery Console is already installed, ComboFix will continue it's malware removal procedures.
  • Do not mouseclick combofix's window whilst it's running. That may cause it to stall.
  • Combofix should never take more that 20 minutes including the reboot if malware is detected.

IMPORTANT: Neither I nor sUBs are responsible for any damage you may have caused your machine by running ComboFix on your own.This tool is not a toy and not for everyday use.

Re: Crowd or party sounds when screen blanks out

Greetings,
Kaspersky reports no malware...
So far, the computer has not been at the "party". I'll let it run and see what happens.
Any idea what this might have been?
Thanks

Re: Crowd or party sounds when screen blanks out

Quote:
So far, the computer has not been at the "party". I'll let it run and see what happens.
Any idea what this might have been?
Thats good to hear. It was a infection that was causing it. I want to make sure we got it all so we need to run one more tool.


----------------------------------------------------------
Please note: Due to the restrictions on Vista, all tools should be started by Right-Click ---> Run As Administrator
----------------------------------------------------------



Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware

Please download Malwarebytes Anti-Malware and save it to your desktop.
  • Make sure you are connected to the Internet.
  • Double-click on mbam-setup.exe to install the application.
  • When the installation begins, follow the prompts and do not make any changes to default settings.
  • When installation has finished, make sure you leave both of these checked:
    • Update Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware
    • Launch Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware
  • Then click Finish.
  • MBAM will automatically start and you will be asked to update the program before performing a scan. If an update is found, the program will automatically update itself. Press the OK button to close that box and continue. If you encounter any problems while downloading the updates, manually download them from here and just double-click on mbam-rules.exe to install.
  • On the Scanner tab:
    • Make sure the Perform Full Scan option is selected.
    • Then click on the Scan button.
  • If asked to select the drives to scan, leave all the drives selected and click on the Start Scan button.
  • The scan will begin and Scan in progress will show at the top. It may take some time to complete so please be patient.
  • When the scan is finished, a message box will say The scan completed successfully. Click 'Show Results' to display all objects found.
  • Click OK to close the message box and continue with the removal process.
  • Back at the main Scanner screen, click on the Show Results button to see a list of any malware that was found.
  • Make sure that everything is checked, and click Remove Selected.
  • When removal is completed, a log report will open in Notepad and you may be prompted to restart your computer. (see Note below)
  • The log is automatically saved and can be viewed by clicking the Logs tab in MBAM.
  • Copy and paste the contents of that report in your next reply and exit MBAM.
Note: If MBAM encounters a file that is difficult to remove, you will be presented with 1 of 2 prompts. Click OK to either and let MBAM proceed with the disinfection process. If asked to restart the computer, please do so immediately. Failure to reboot will prevent MBAM from removing all the malware.


Logs/Information to Post in Next Reply

Please post the following logs/Information in your reply:
  • Malwarebytes Antimalware log
  • A fresh HijackThis Log ( after all the above has been done)
  • A description of how your computer is behaving

Re: Crowd or party sounds when screen blanks out

Update Adobe Reader

Your version of Adobe Reader is out-of-date. There are known security issues with older versions of Adobe Reader. It is strongly suggested that you update to the current version. Please uninstall older version of Adobe Reader before installing the latest version.

If you are using a FULL featured, purchased version of Adobe Acrobat Reader.
These instructions will remove the current version of Adobe Reader and replace it with the limited feature FREE version. If you want to replace the paid for version with the free version, then continue, otherwise DO NOT perform these steps!
  • Click Start
  • Control Panel
  • Double clicking on Add/Remove Programs
  • Locate older version of Adobe Reader and click on Change/Remove to uninstall it
  • Click HERE to download the latest version of Adobe Reader.
  • Select your Windows version and click on Download. If you are using Internet Explorer, you will receive prompts. Allow the installation to be ran and it will be installed automatically for you. If you are using other browsers, it will prompt you to save a file. Save this file to your desktop and run it to install the latest version of Adobe Reader.
  • Close your Internet browser and open it again.

If you don't like Adobe Reader, you can download Foxit PDF Reader from HERE. It's a much smaller file to download and uses a lot less resources than Adobe Reader.
Note: When installing FoxitReader, be carefull not to install anything to do with AskBar.




Your log now appears to be clean. Congratulations!

You can get rid of the tools we used:
  • ATF cleaner - (You can just delete the exe file from your desktop)

Delete ComboFix and Clean Up
Click Start > Run > type combofix /u > OK (Note the space between combofix and /u)

Please advise if this step is missed for any reason as it performs some important actions.


OTC

Download OTC by Old Timer and save it to your Desktop.
  • Double-click OTC.exe
  • Click the CleanUp! button
  • Select Yes when the Begin cleanup Process? Prompt appears
  • If you are prompted to Reboot during the cleanup, select Yes
  • The tool will delete itself once it finishes, if not delete it by yourself

Note: If you receive a warning from your firewall or other security programs regarding OTC attempting to contact the internet, please allow it to do so.

General Security and Computer Health
Below are some steps to follow in order to dramatically lower the chances of reinfection. You may have already implemented some of the steps below, however you should follow any steps that you have not already implemented.
  • Make sure that you keep your antivirus updated
    New viruses come out every minute, so it is essential that you have the latest signatures for your antivirus program to provide you with the best possible protection from malicious software.
    NOTE: You should only have one antivirus installed at a time. Having more than one antivirus program installed at once is likely to cause conflicts and may well decrease your overall protection as well as impairing the performance of your PC.
  • Security Updates for Windows, Internet Explorer & Microsoft Office
    Whenever a security problem in its software is found, Microsoft will usually create a patch so that after the patch is installed, attackers can't use the vulnerability to install malicious software on your PC. Keeping up with these patches will help to prevent malicious software being installed on your PC. Ensure you are registered for Windows updates via Start > right-click on My Computer > Properties > Automatic Updates tab or visit the Microsoft Update site on a regular basis.
    NOTE: The update process uses ActiveX, so you will need to use internet explorer for it and allow the ActiveX control to install.
  • Update Non-Microsoft Programs
    Microsoft isn't the only company whose products can contain security vulnerabilities. To check whether other programs running on your PC are in need of an update, you can use the Secunia Software Inspector or F-secure Health Check. I suggest that you run one of them at least once a month.
  • Make Internet Explorer More Secure
    You are using Internet Explorer v. 7. Therefore please read and follow the recommendations at this SITE


Recommended Programs

I would recommend the download and installation of some or all of the following programs (if not already present), and the updating of them on a regular basis.
  • WinPatrol
    As a robust security monitor, WinPatrol will alert you to hijackings, malware attacks and critical changes made to your computer without your permission. WinPatrol takes snapshot of your critical system resources and alerts you to any changes that may occur without your knowledge. For more information, please visit HERE.
  • SpywareBlaster
    SpywareBlaster sets killbits in the registry to prevent known malicious ActiveX controls from installing on your computer. If you don't know what ActiveX controls are, see HERE. You can download SpywareBlaster from HERE.
  • Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware
    Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware is an anti-malware application that can thoroughly remove even the most advanced malware. It includes a number of features, including a built in protection monitor that blocks malicious processes before they even start.You can download Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware from HERE. Here are two tutorials: Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware Setup Guide and Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware Scanning Guide.
  • Hosts File
    For added protection you may also like to add a host file. A simple explanation of what a Hosts file does is HERE and for more information regarding host files read HERE.
  • Use an alternative Internet Browser
    Many of the exploits are directed to users of Internet Explorer. Try using a different browser instead: Firefox or Opera


Here is a great article by miekiemoes How to prevent Malware.

Finally I am trying to make one point very clear. It is ABSOLUTELY ESSENTIAL to keep all of your security programs up to date.


Please take the time to tell us what you would like to be done about the people who are behind all the problems you have had. We can only get something done about this if the people that we help, like you, are prepared to complain. We have a dedicated forum for collecting these complaints Malware Complaints. You need to be registered to post as, unfortunately, we were hit with too many spam posts to allow guest posting to continue. Just find your country room and register your complaint.


I'd be grateful if you could reply to this post so that I know you have read it and, if you've no other questions, the thread can be closed.

Happy surfing and stay clean!

Re: Crowd or party sounds when screen blanks out

Thanks Bio Hazard, I'll implement your suggestions.
One more question. Of course my laptop is new, running Vista. On this computer I have installed AVG antivirus software. On my main PC, running XP, I use Norton. I've been told that Norton is nothing more than bloatware, and other virus software packages are better. Do you have a preference for antivirus? When renewal time comes, I can switch.
Thanks,
Kurt

Re: Crowd or party sounds when screen blanks out

Hello!

You are welcome. Here are some free and paid alternatives. I have used all of them at one some point.


Antivirus

Anti-virus software are programs that detect cleans and erase harmful virus files on a computer Web server or network. Unchecked virus files can unintentionally be forwarded to others including trading partners and thereby spreading infection. Because new viruses regularly emerge anti-virus software should be updated frequently. Anti-virus software can scan the computer memory and disk drives for malicious code. They can alert the user if a virus is present and will clean delete (or quarantine) infected files or directories. Please download a free anti-virus software from one these excellent vendors NOW:

Some paid alternatives (link takes you to companys site, it is not a direct download link):
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. If you choose to install more than one antivirus program on your computer then only one of them should be active in memory at a time.
