I recently noticed my browser acting funny (redirecting me while I tried to browse google.)

I did a Malwarebyte's AntiMalware quick scan, and it found 9 infected objects (rootkits, some Dlls with randomly generated letters for names)

It deleted all but 3, located in the system32 folder and told me it'd have to delete them on restart, so I hesitantly restarted.

Sure enough it started giving me weird stuff.

Now every time a process starts, it gives me an error message saying

notepad.exe - Bad Image
The application or DLL Globalroot\systemroot\system32\gasfkybqqpkrod.dll is not a valid windows Image. Please check this against your installation diskette.

how do I fix this?

Right now, I'm running windows Xp professional on a Desktop system.

Hi Comcrap,


Please download exeHelper to your desktop.
  • Double-click on exeHelper.com to run the fix.
  • A black window should pop up, press any key to close once the fix is completed.
  • Post the contents of log.txt (Will be created in the directory where you ran exeHelper.com)

Note If the window shows a message that says "Error deleting file", please re-run the program before posting a log - and post the two logs together (they will both be in the one file).

NEXT

Download and run Win32kDiag:
  1. Download Win32kDiag from any of the following locations and save it to your Desktop.
  2. Double-click Win32kDiag.exe to run Win32kDiag and let it finish.
  3. When it states "Finished! Press any key to exit...", press any key on your keyboard to close the program.
  4. Double-click on the Win32kDiag.txt file that is located on your Desktop and post the entire contents of that log as a reply to this topic.
    • To ensure the entire contents are copied, right click anywhere in the notepad and click Select All
    • Right click the highlited text and click copy


Please post back with the log.txt and the Win32kDiag.txt

Thanks
