  FCopy::
  C:\WINDOWS\SoftwareDistribution\Download\dd9ab5193501484cf5e6884fa1d22f9e\proquota.exe | c:\windows\system32\proquota.exe

• Save this as CFScript.txt and change the "Save as type" to "All Files" and place it on your desktop.
  
  
  
• Very Important! Temporarily disable your anti-virus, script blocking and any anti-malware real-time protection before following the steps below. They can interfere with ComboFix or remove some of its embedded files which may cause "unpredictable results".
• If you need help to disable your protection programs see here.
• Referring to the screenshot above, drag CFScript.txt into ComboFix.exe.
• ComboFix will now run a scan on your system. It may reboot your system when it finishes. This is normal.
• When finished, it shall produce a log for you. Copy and paste the contents of the log in your next reply.

CAUTION: Do not mouse-click ComboFix's window while it is running. That may cause it to stall.

2) P2P Warning
P2P - I see you have P2P software (Azureus) installed on your machine. We are not here to pass judgment on file-sharing as a concept. However, we will warn you that engaging in this activity and having this kind of software installed on your machine will always make you more susceptible to re-infections. It likely contributed to your current situation. This page will give you further information.
Please note: Even if you are using a "safe" P2P program, it is only the program that is safe. You will be sharing files from uncertified sources, and these are often infected. The bad guys use P2P filesharing as a major conduit to spread their wares.
Please see this topic for more information:
Perils of P2P File Sharing.
I would strongly recommend that you uninstall these now. You can do so via Control Panel >> Add or Remove Programs.

3) Update Adobe Reader
Your current version of Adobe Reader is out of date, and may contain security issues. Please uninstall the version you have now from Add/Remove programs, and then download and install the latest Adobe Reader.

4) Update Java
Your version of Java is outdated.

Please download JavaRa to your desktop and unzip it to its own folder

Run JavaRa.exe, pick the language of your choice and click Select. Then click Remove Older Versions.
Accept any prompts.
Open JavaRa.exe again and select Search For Updates.
Select Update Using Sun Java's Website then click Search and click on the Open Webpage button. Download and install the latest Java Runtime Environment (JRE) version for your computer.

5) What You Will Need To Post:

Here's the results from the scan. Could Not Find C:\My Downloads\Software\1 CLICK DVD COPY PRO 2006 v.2.1.0.5 retail crack included (4.41 mb).zip I saw the results and tried again here it is. Could Not Find C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Desktop\Downloads\OmarSharifBridgeII-dm[1].exe Could Not Find C:\My Downloads\adam lambert ring of fire - best track ever.mp3 Could Not Find C:\My Downloads\Software\1 CLICK DVD COPY PRO 2006 v.2.1.0.5 retail crack included (4.41 mb).zip Await your thoughts. BTW, I can go to the software folder and find 1 CLICK DVD COPY PRO 2006 v.2.1.0.5 retail crack included (4.41 mb).zip, is it something i should delete or do I get the same effect? I can't find the exact adam lambert file, I find Adam Lambert - Ring of Fire [Studio Version American Idol Performance Top 11 Week].mp3 I go thru the above link and I don't find the exact file, I find OmarSharifBridgeII.exe. Just thought i'd pass this on. Just started using the computer and it starts up fine. Still haven't initiated AVG Resident shield. I'm notusing the other computer, I'm on it now. Been going into task manager and looking at apps for police pro and process' for svchast and they're not there.

That's fine - they're gone now. In that case... congratulations!

Time for some housekeeping

• Click START then RUN
• Now type Combofix /u in the runbox and click OK
• 

The above procedure will reset your System Restore and clear out the backups and quarantines created during the course of this fix.

You may delete all the programs we used, except MBAM. Run that weekly to pick up anything before you become aware of it.

How to reduce your chances of infection in the future

Web Browsers
Internet Explorer does come pre-installed with all Windows machines - but this doesn't necessarily mean you have to use it! Because it is the most widely used browser, it is targeted by more malware writers, making you more susceptible to infection. There are many other free alternatives out there that offer better security, take one of these for a spin and see if it takes your fancy.
Mozilla Firefox
Google Chrome
Opera

WOT - Web of Trust, warns you about risky websites that try to scam visitors, deliver malware or send spam. Protect your computer against online threats by using WOT as your front-line layer of protection when browsing or searching in unfamiliar territory. WOT's color-coded icons show you ratings for 21 million websites, helping you avoid the dangerous sites:
Green to go
Yellow for caution
Red to stop
WOT has an addon available for both Firefox and Internet Explorer.

If you are too attached to leave Internet Explorer, follow these additional steps to make the browser more secure.

• From within Internet Explorer click on the Tools menu and then click on Options.
• Click once on the Security tab.
• Click once on the Internet icon so it becomes highlighted.
• Click once on the Custom Level button.
  
  • Change the Download signed ActiveX controls to Prompt.
  • Change the Download unsigned ActiveX controls to Disable.
  • Change the Initialise and script ActiveX controls not marked as safe to Disable.
  • Change the Installation of desktop items to Prompt.
  • Change the Launching programs and files in an IFRAME to Prompt.
  • Change the Navigate sub-frames across different domains to Prompt.
• When all these settings have been made, click on the OK button.
• If it prompts you as to whether or not you want to save the settings, press the Yes button.

Additional Security Measures
Keep your software up-to-date - You should be manually performing updates of your software once a week to ensure that you are current with anti-virus definitions and patched for any security vulnerabilities. This does not just apply to your anti-virus/anti-malware software; malware authors rely on exploiting commonly used software such as Java and Adobe Reader, which need to be kept up to date as well.

Keep Windows up-to-date - Use Windows Update regularly to stay current with security patches and service packs.

MVPS Hosts File - This custom hosts file effectively blocks a wide range of unwanted ads, banners, 3rd party Cookies, 3rd party page counters, web bugs, and many hijackers.

Firewalls - Without a firewall your computer is susceptible to being hacked and taken over. If you use the Windows Firewall you might think that's sufficient - but it only controls one way of the traffic (inbound). Simply using a Firewall in its default configuration can lower your risk greatly.

What Not To Do
The Perils of P2P File Sharing - Even if a P2P application is on the 'safe' list, malware can still be downloaded through infected files - executables, zip files and even MP3s. It is just not worth the risk.

Fake Security/Optimization Software - Be very wary with any security software that is advertised in popups or in other ways. They are not only usually of no use, but often have malware in them.

Hi Raktor, I just logged on and my resident shield alert came up with 3 hits; "C:\System Volume Information\_restore{145A78D9-30F3-4441-A76F-9F54405CDEA6}\RP603\A0137643.exe";"Trojan horse Generic14.BLYE";"Moved to Virus Vault" the other 2 the result is deleted. If I click each one and highlight it, in the lower left corner of the resident shield alert box is "Process name" The first highlighted one, the process name says "system" The second one , the process name says "C:\windows\system32\svchost.exe" The third again says "system" Am I to assume, AVG did it's job and I'm ok that they got caught there and i'm still good? Right now i'm kindof paranoid given all the fun we've been having. I'll probably go ahead and run a MBAM just for fun. Please advise. I'll run the "house keeping" and MBAM. I just want to say thanks, it was very hairy for me throughout this ordeal, I hope your other tech's that you work with probably know how difficult it is to do this and you were great THANKS!!! Fred

Uninstalling Combofix should have purged the system restore - but it appears it didn't. We can just do it manually.

The easiest and safest way to do this is:

• Go to Start > Programs > Accessories > System Tools and click "System Restore".
• Choose the radio button marked "Create a Restore Point" on the first screen then click "Next". Give the R.P. a name then click "Create". The new point will be stamped with the current date and time. Keep a log of this so you can find it easily should you need to use System Restore.
• Then go to Start > Run and type: Cleanmgr
• Click "OK".
• Click the "More Options" Tab.
• Click "Clean Up" in the System Restore section to remove all previous restore points except the newly created one.

:thumbsup:

You're all good now.

I did the combofix /u after I sent the message, it may be gone now. I'll do the instructions you just sent. BTW, how can I download this full log? Thanks again Raktor, it's been a pleasure working with you. Fred
