BitTorrent
You have BitTorrent, a P2P/file sharing programs installed on your computer. P2P applications like it are the largest source of malware we see. You'll be doing yourself a favor by removing it.

References for the risk of these programs can be found in these links:
http://www.microsoft.com/windows/ie/commun…protection.mspx
http://www.techweb.com/wire/160500554

See Clean/Infected P2P Programs here

I would recommend that you uninstall BitTorrent, however that choice is up to you. If you choose to remove these programs, you can do so via Control Panel >> Add or Remove Programs.

If you wish to keep it, please do not use it until your computer is cleaned.

Download ComboFix from one of these locations:

COMBOFIX-Script

  • Please open Notepad (Start -> Run -> type notepad in the Open field -> OK) and copy and paste the text present inside the code box below:

    Driver::
    SBSDWSCService
  • Save this as CFScript.txt and change the "Save as type" to "All Files" and place it on your desktop.

    [external image: Posted Image]

k7t7,

Sorry. It seems I didn't answer a question you asked earlier.

and is there a safe p2p site?

The short answer is No. The longer answer is that it is more about the people who frequent the site than the site itself. Potential legalities aside, you don't know the person who uploaded the file to the site. They may not even know that they are passing on an infected file. Of course, some files are infected purposefully. Think about it. If you were a scum spreader, where would you go to infect the most unsuspecting users? My choice would be P2P. Working malware removal I can tell you that I hear it all the time "I use P2P but I am really careful so I know that the dozens of infections on my system didn't come from that!" Oh really! Where did it come from? I can also tell you that personally I mess around on the internet alot but I don't use P2P programs. Up until a couple years ago, I wasn't smart enough even to use an Anti-virus. I've never been infected. I do not believe anyone can spend much time with P2P and say the same.

Log looks good :D

Go ahead and keep TFC and Mbam. Run them once a month or so just to make sure things are running right (always be sure to update Mbam before using)


Time for some housekeeping
  • Click START then RUN
  • Now type Combofix /u in the runbox and click OK
  • Note the space between the X and the U, it needs to be there.
  • [external image: Posted Image]
The above procedure will:
  • Implement some cleanup procedures.
  • Reset System Restore.

Please re-enable any security that was disabled.


The following is my standard advice for the future. Use what you can and pat yourself on the back for what you're already doing.

Please take time to read Preventing Malware - Tools and Practices for Safe Computing. Very important information for your consideration is contained therein.

I would also suggest you read this:
So how did I get infected in the first place?

Please respond back that you understand the above and let me know if you have any questions. Otherwise, this thread will be closed Resolved. :thumbup:
Tomk thanks a million for your help. My computer is running great. I've already uninstalled bittorrent. I mean, I just started using bittorrent in the past few years. Before I just used Soulseek and usenet and never had any problems. But I understand now that there are no safe p2p sites. So I will uninstall Soulseek as well. One more question: If I have Mbam do I need to keep Spybot? I'll read the recommended text. Thanks again. -Kevin Taylor

One more question: If I have Mbam do I need to keep Spybot?

Need is too strong of a word. But, one doesn't replace the other. Spybot blocks stuff from getting on your computer. Mbam finds stuff that got on your computer. :)
