Malware?

[DaveC]

Hi, I was wondering if somebody could have a look at my Hijackthis log and see if they can get my computer to boot up normally again. I have problems even getting the monitor to kick in but I'm in safe mode now and I'm not switching the pc off till I get this sorted.
I was running AOL Antispyware, Ewido, and Adaware last night and they found Search It, Cool Web Search and Softomat respectively but the pc wouldn't switch on this morning. When I did get the monitor on (by repeatedly switching the pc off and on) it crashed when starting windows. I'm in safe mode now running the same programs but they don't seem to be finding anything now. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks, Dave.

I don't think your issue is malware related. I do want to confirm these entrys are legit....

Some type of Wilderness Software based in the UK??

Hi

Thanks for getting back to me. I was expecting an e-mail to tell me I'd had a reply but I mustn't've set it up properly.
Yes they're genuine, Mini Mick is from Sunderland Football Club that tells me updates and Mini Oddie is a thing I got from BBC.
I can actually get online with safe mode and networking but it's still crashing on normal boot up. I found a Hijackthis log from just before it started crashing with more info on it which may be of help as it was done in normal mode rather than safe mode.
I'm beginning to think I need to repair XP or worse, wipe the disk and start again. Nightmare...

Please empty any Quarantine folder in your antivirus program and purge all recovery items in the Spybot program (if you use it) before running this tool.

Download Mwav Virus Checker

1. Save it to a folder.
2. Reboot into Safe Mode.
3. Double click the Mwav.exe file. This is a stand alone tool and NOT just a virus checker......so it won't install anything.
Configure Mwav as followed:

• check Memory
• check Startup Folders
• check Drive - All Local Drives
• check Folder - then click [Browse] to change the directory to C: (default is C:\Windows)
• Uncheck Registry
• check System Folders
• check Services
• check Include Sub-Directory
• check Scan All Files
• Press the Scan button.

In the 'Virus Log Information Pane', use [CTRL] + [C] on your keyboard to copy everything found in the lower pane and save it to a notepad file. The whole log will be extremely big so there is no way to post the whole log. I just need the infected items list from that window.

This scan might take around 3+ hours to finish. Allow it to run till it says it's complete. If prompted that a virus was found and you need to purchase the product to remove the malware, just close out the prompt and let it continue scanning. We are not going to use this to remove anything...but to ID the bad files.

[DaveC]

Hi

Thanks for your help. I've done what you said, there was Adviva or something in Spybot recovery which I purged. The scan is underway and it found four things straight away, AltNet, ISearch.ISTdownloader, CWS.therealsearch and iSearch. It seems to have stopped finding things but I suppose I'll have to wait for the scan to finish and not be impatient!
Just thought I'd let you know I got your message.

Thanks again

Dave

[DaveC]

Hi

OK, scan finished and it found the four things I mentioned before.

Object "AltNet Spyware/Adware" found in File System! Action Taken: No Action Taken.
Object "ISearchTech.ISTdownloader Spyware/Adware" found in File System! Action Taken: No Action Taken.
Object "CWS.therealsearch Spyware/Adware" found in File System! Action Taken: No Action Taken.
Object "iSearch Spyware/Adware" found in File System! Action Taken: No Action Taken.

Hope there's something I can do.

Cheers

Dave

Please download Trend Micro™ Anti-Spyware for the Web Utility (by clicking the "Scan and Clean your PC" button).

• Save it to your desktop.
• Double-click the new icon on your desktop (tmas-web-scan.exe)
• It will say "Loading TrendMicro definitions".
• Once the definitions are loaded, the program will appear to close then re-open.
• Click "Start Scan"
• After it's done scanning, click "Scan Results"
• Make sure all items found have a check next to them, then click "Clean Threats Now".
• Click Exit.

Reboot your computer. In place of the TrendMicro icon will be a text file called "Antispyware.log", please double-click that log and copy the entire contents and paste them in your next post.

CWShredder - Save it to Desktop.

• Open CWShredder and click - I AGREE
• Click - Check For Update
• Close CWShredder after updating

Run CWShredder & click on [Fix].

[DaveC]

Ok, done that but on both boots it still crashed in the same place. Trend Micro found loads of stuff, here is the Antispyware log

Ah.. The joys of P2P File Sharing

Do an online scan at one of the following sites:

• Panda ActiveScan
• Kaspersky Anti-Virus Web Scanner
• BitDefender Online Scanner
• Trend Micro™ HouseCall

Take note the names and locations of any file it detects but fails to clean.
* Turn off the real time scanner of any existing antivirus program while performing the online scan

In your next post, please include fresh logs from:

1. HiJackThis
2. Online scan

Please provide details of any problems you encountered whilst performing the above steps & update us on how the computer behaves now

[DaveC]

Oops, sorry about the p2p. Just done the Panda scan but because I'm in safe mode my screen resolution is large so I can see it's found 3 spyware items but it won't let me see what it's found as I can't change the size of the window and no option to scroll around the window. I'll try the Kaspersky one instead.

Dave

[DaveC]

Ah, managed to enlarge the screen with F11 enough to see what Panda found which was :

Adware:adware/wupd No disinfected C:\PROGRAM FILES\winupdate

Adware:adware/cws No disinfected C:\DOCUMENTS AND SETTINGS\DAVID\FAVORITES\Living

Spyware:spyware/dyfuca No disinfected Windows Registry

I don't believe it, progress!!!! The computer has booted up in normal mode and is giving me an error message

'Windows cannot find' then in quotes it has some Japanese characters. I've took a screen dump of it if you need it but don't know how to insert it into this message, I think I may have attached it. Also it tried to open my AOL browser automatically. This is the problem I had before my computer started crashing so you've probably undone my pathetic attempts at fixing it!

[DaveC]

Now I'm in normal mode I can give you the proper Hijackthis log:

Run HJT and Fix

F3 - REG:win.ini: load=???
?, ???????????????

Delete the following folders:
[b]
C:\PROGRAM FILES\winupdate
C:\DOCUMENTS AND SETTINGS\DAVID\FAVORITES\Living

Reboot your computer.

Now that you can access Normal Mode I'd like you to an Online Virus scan again please. I'm not sure if it will make a difference:

Please run an online virus scan at Panda ActiveScan. Save the results and bring them with you in your next post.

[DaveC]

Brilliant, I did the Hijackthis fix then deleted the files and rebooted and the Japanese character problem is gone. It still tried to start AOL though. Then I did the Panda scan and it found these:

Adware:adware/cws No disinfected C:\DOCUMENTS AND SETTINGS\DAVID\FAVORITES\Shop Spyware:spyware/searchcentrix No disinfected Windows Registry

[POADB]

OK - Not a problem.

Delete this folder:

C:\DOCUMENTS AND SETTINGS\DAVID\FAVORITES\Shop

Now lets stop AOL from starting on it's own Run HJT and Fix:

O4 - Global Startup: AOL 9.0 Tray Icon.lnk = C:\Program Files\AOL 9.0\aoltray.exe
O4 - Global Startup: AOL Broadband Check-Up.lnk = C:\Program Files\AOL\Broadband CheckUp\bin\matcli.exe

Neither of the above are required at startup, they can both be manually run by yourself as and when...

Reboot your computer - let me know if this resolves the problem and we'll get you setup to prevent future infections.

[DaveC]

I followed your instructions but AOL still tried to start. We didn't seem to do anything about Spyware:spyware/searchcentrix No disinfected Windows Registry which was found by Panda scan. Could it be this spyware trying to open my browser?

Also I have two other not so serious problems. I'd uninstalled AVG and reinstalled AOL just before all this started but I'm getting an error message now saying it can't find kernel for AVG or something. It also can't start AOL so I'll probably have to reinstall that again. I think when I've done the system restore to try to fix this I've somehow half reinstalled AVG and AOL. Is that possible?

[DaveC]

I just reinstalled AOL but I've lost all my old e-mails now though it's not automatically trying to start up AOL anymore. If I do a system restore would it put back all the spyware we've removed? What should I do about the spyware in previous post?
Wish I could system restore England back to the end of the first half

One more post before I give up for today. I just ran Ewido and it found this lot:

Did you resolve the problem yet? The Ewido scan cleaned out everything here

It might be too late, but take a look at this site and this one also to see if your AOL emails are still there. I assume these are the ones you saved to your computer?
