Am I infected?

Hi,
I would greatly appreciate analyzing my machine. My Wife and I tend to use our PC for shopping and it would kill us if our Credit information is jeopardized.
Thank you for all you all do for us! Forgive me as this is my first forum post ever.

Re: Am I infected?

Hello, and welcome to the forums!

Are you experiencing any issues which make you think the machine is infected? Redirected searches, popups?

The file attached from GMER is actually a shortcut to the file saved on your machine.

Let's try this version of gmer.


Download GMER Rootkit Scanner from here to your desktop.
  • Double click the exe file.
  • If it gives you a warning about rootkit activity and asks if you want to run scan...click on NO, then use the following settings for a more complete scan.



    Click the image to enlarge it


  • In the right panel, you will see several boxes that have been checked. Uncheck the following ...
    • Sections
    • IAT/EAT
    • Drives/Partition other than Systemdrive (typically C:\)
    • Show All (don't miss this one)
  • Then click the Scan button & wait for it to finish.
  • Once done click on the [Save..] button, and in the File name area, type in "Gmer.txt" or it will save as a .log file which cannot be uploaded to your post.
  • Save it where you can easily find it, such as your desktop, and attach it in reply. No need to zip it.

**Caution**
Rootkit scans often produce false positives. Do NOT take any action on any "<--- ROOKIT" entries

Re: Am I infected?

Thank you for your help! No, I haven't experience any popups or redirecting. It seems as if my PC is running great, but when I did the HiJackthis log, on the internet seemed that the "gopher prefix" was bad. I just dont want to jeopardize my machine. I have attached the as requested Gmer.txt. Thanks again for your help.

Re: Am I infected?

Hi -

I see nothing in the logs to suggest an infection, you say the machine is running great.

A bit about the O13 Gopher Prefix in Vista

The reason it shows up in Vista logs is because Vista no longer supports the Gopher protocol, but HJT still expects to find it. It should be considered a HJT bug. HJT should probably be updated to reflect this, but that may take a while. Since it's a Vista machine, I'd ignore it.

Re: Am I infected?

Thank you for your help, I'd rather be safe than sorry. I appreciate the info about the Gopher Prefix. I spend every week trying to keep my machine running tip top by constantly checking updates, running adware, spybot S&D, CCleaner, and Avast. IT'S awesome that you guys take the time to look at whats going on with "our" PCs!
Take care,
Chris
