[Closed] Infected computer; HJT log

anij315 Topic Starter

Post #1December 27, 2009, 3:20 AM UTC

I was on expedia.com and refining my search for vacation deals. When I clicked on 'search', the redirected window was blank, and a pop-up of an authentic-looking Windows anti-virus menu showed up with a list of viruses marked "high" or "critical" to a column to the right of each virus name. It alerted me that the computer was attacked by 7 viruses; one of which was a trojan, but I panicked and didn't write down the names of the others. When I tried to select an action, it prompted me to run a program, which I allowed, but then it led me to nowhere; I got a message of error, saying a certain temporary internet file could not be accessed. Moreover, after closer examination, I noticed that this Windows menu/window spelled "Search" wrong; it was spelled "Seraches" beneath the magnifying glass icon, and this made me further suspicious.

I closed the IE window and ran Avast anti-virus, then Windows Defender, but neither detected anything awry.

IE works fine, but what happened earlier was too suspect for me to move on.

I appreciate any advice or help I can get. Thank you so much!

Here is my hijack this log I made shortly after Avast and Windows Defender finished running:

Log looks fine. Sometimes if you get out of a website fast enough it borks the download, but lets check.

Please download ATF Cleaner by Atribune to your desktop.

Double-click ATF-Cleaner.exe to run the program.
Under Main choose: Select All
Click the Empty Selected button.

Your system may start up slower after running ATF Cleaner, this is expected but will be back to normal after the first or second boot up
Please note: If you use online banking or are registered online with any other organizations, ensure you have memorized password and other personal information as removing cookies will temporarily disable the auto-login facility.

Please download Malwarebytes from Here or Here

Double-click mbam-setup.exe and follow the prompts to install the program.
At the end, be sure a checkmark is placed next to Update Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware and Launch Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware, then click Finish.
If an update is found, it will download and install the latest version.
Once the program has loaded, select Perform quick scan, then click Scan.
[external image: Posted Image]
When the scan is complete, click OK, then Show Results to view the results.
Be sure that everything is checked, and click Remove Selected .
When completed, a log will open in Notepad. Please save it to a convenient location and post the results.
Note: If you receive a notice that some of the items couldn't be removed, that they have been added to the delete on reboot list, please reboot.

Post the report and also a new HJT log please
