Hi! I've been trying for a couple of days now to get rid of some things my machine picked up when I updated Windows two days ago. I have used CCleaner, Spybot S&D;, Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware, Avira Anti-Virus, HijackThis (only to remove things I KNOW were new and didn't belong), eliminated most of Google Updater (I had Earth) and PlaySushi and the Ask & Record Toolbar which I figured could have also been vectors, and I also used OMT just now based on another user that had the same virus (which may have been a mistake)…but it seems to not be helping. I'm fairly certain I at least have TR/crypt.xdr.gen2 and gen3 and maybe some other stuff. I still have advertising tabs pop up in my Firefox, links from Google are redirected (but if I copy and paste the links they're fine), and oddly enough my computer now seems to randomly think my Epson Artisan 710 is a removable USB storage device.

Hello Zhora and :welcome:

My name is JonTom.

  • Malware Logs can sometimes take a lot of time to research and interpret.
  • Please be patient while I try to assist with your problem. If at any time you do not understand what is required, please ask for further explanation.
  • Please note that there is no "Quick Fix" to modern malware infections and we may need to use several different approaches to get your system clean.
  • Read every reply you receive carefully and thoroughly before carrying out the instructions. You may also find it helpful to print out the instructions you receive, as in some instances you may have to disconnect your computer from the Internet.
  • PLEASE NOTE: If you do not reply after 5 days your thread will be closed.


Please scan you system with the following tool. If you encounter any problems, come back and let me know:


  • Please scan your system with GMER


    [external image: Posted Image]
    Download GMER Rootkit Scanner from here or here.
    • Extract the contents of the zipped file to desktop.
    • Double click GMER.exe. If asked to allow gmer.sys driver to load, please consent.
    • If it gives you a warning about rootkit activity and asks if you want to run scan…click on NO.

      [external image: Posted Image]
      Click the image to enlarge it
    • In the right panel, you will see several boxes that have been checked. Uncheck the following …
    • IAT/EAT
    • Drives/Partition other than Systemdrive (typically C:\)
    • Show All (don't miss this one)
  • Then click the Scan button & wait for it to finish.
  • Once done click on the [Save..] button, and in the File name area, type in "Gmer.txt" or it will save as a .log file which cannot be uploaded to your post.
  • Save it where you can easily find it, such as your desktop, and post it in your reply.

**Caution**
Rootkit scans often produce false positives. Do NOT take any action on any "<— ROOKIT" entries

I had to reboot after opening Gmer before I made it run, then once after closing the program. Is this normal? Also, it never asked about consent to load gmer.sys or to 'warn' about rootkits, and 'Show All' was already clicked off. Currently I cannot print as my computer thinks my printer is a USB storage device, so I'm writing down instructions instead.

I need to add that since using Gmer, Firefox hasn't been popping up new adware tabs, BUT when I went to use Google just now to look up what Gmer is the links from Google are still being redirected. –Zhora
Hello Zhora

Thank you for the log.

Please work your way through the following steps. If you encounter any difficulties come back and let me know.


  • Please download SystemLook by JPShortstuff


  • Please download SystemLook by JPShortstuff by clicking here or here and save the file (called SystemLook.exe) to your desktop.
  • Double click SystemLook.exe to run the program.
  • Copy the content of the following codebox into the main textfield:

:filefind
*redbook.sys*

  • Click the Look button to start the scan.
  • When finished, a notepad window will open with the results of the scan. Please post this log in your next reply.
  • Note: The log can also be found on your Desktop entitled SystemLook.txt
I attempted to download Ubuntu last night, which would take a day and a half on my dialup connection, only to have the false sysguard trojan and a virus called JAVA/AgentM.1 reinstall themselves and require removal before I could do anything else. Needless to say, the download was aborted by me tho I'm pretty sure it wasn't the source of the reinfection. I hope removal of redbook.sys stops the reinfections. It will be probably taking me a while to get Ubuntu and to get DVDs to backup some of my files on (at least a week), so I DO want to keep with this virus removal until then. Even if I get Ubuntu before then, it will share with XP until I can get those files off. Should I do another DDS log and post it to check and see if everything's gone? –Zhora Here's the SystemLock log: SystemLook v1.0 by jpshortstuff (11.01.10) Log created at 09:40 on 24/07/2010 by Christine (Administrator - Elevation successful) ========== filefind ========== Searching for "*redbook.sys*" C:\WINDOWS\$NtServicePackUninstall$\redbook.sys —–c 57472 bytes [20:30 20/09/2009] [22:59 03/08/2004] B31B4588E4086D8D84ADBF9845C2402B C:\WINDOWS\ServicePackFiles\i386\redbook.sys —— 57600 bytes [20:29 20/09/2009] [18:40 13/04/2008] F828DD7E1419B6653894A8F97A0094C5 C:\WINDOWS\system32\drivers\redbook.sys –a— 57600 bytes [02:53 20/09/2009] [18:40 13/04/2008] F828DD7E1419B6653894A8F97A0094C5 -=End Of File=-
Hello Zhora

Thank you for the log.

I attempted to download Ubuntu last night

Please hold off from downloading anything else except the tools we require until we get your system cleaned, as it may cause additional problems.

Should I do another DDS log and post it to check and see if everything's gone?

Not yet. It appears that you have a recent variant of a TDSS rootkit on your machine. It will most likely take several rounds of treatment before you are good to go so please stay with me.


Please work your way through the following steps:


  • Please download The Avenger by Swandog46


  • Please download The Avenger by clicking here and save the file (called avenger.zip) to your desktop.
  • Right click on the Avenger.zip folder and select "Extract All…"
  • Follow the prompts and extract the avenger folder to your desktop.
  • Copy the text in the code box below to your Clipboard by highlighting it and pressing (Ctrl+C):

Files to move:
C:\WINDOWS\ServicePackFiles\i386\redbook.sys | C:\WINDOWS\system32\drivers\redbook.sys

Note: the above code was created specifically for this User. If you are not this User, do NOT follow these directions as they could damage the workings of your system.

  • Once you have copied the text to your Clipboard, open the avenger folder and start The Avenger program by clicking on its icon.
  • Right click on the window under "Input script here:", and select "Paste" (You can also Paste the text copied to the clipboard into this window by pressing (Ctrl+V).
  • Click on "Execute".
  • Answer "Yes" twice when prompted.

  • The Avenger will automatically do the following:
  • It will Restart your computer. (In cases where the code to execute contains "Drivers to Delete" or "Drivers to Disable", The Avenger will actually restart your system twice.)
  • On reboot, it will briefly open a black command window on your desktop. This is normal.
  • After the restart, it creates a log file that should open with the results of Avenger’s actions. (This log file can also be found at C:\avenger.txt).
  • The Avenger will automatically make a backup of all items you asked it to delete. These backups can be located at C:\avenger\backup.zip.

Please provide The Avenger log in your next reply.
Okay! Does 'no downloading' also include no email? Just want you to know that its still redirecting links that come up in Google, but its doing it while the page loads so Firefox doesn't recognize it as a redirect. And I'm still having the problem with the printer being 'recognized' as a removable storage device.

Here's the log. So what's next? You guys really are a Godsend, you know. :)

Hello Zhora

Thank you for the log.

So what's next?



  • Download Combofix and RE-NAME it BEFORE saving


  • Download Combofix from either of the links below. You must rename it to zhora.exe before saving it.
  • Save it to your desktop. Change the "save as file type" to "all files".
  • Note: In the event you already have Combofix, delete it, this is a new version that I need you to download. It is important that it is saved and renamed following this process directly to your desktop.


  • If you are using Firefox, make sure that your download settings are as follows:
  • Tools->Options->Main tab
  • Set to "Always ask me where to Save the files".


Link 1
Link 2



  • Very Important! Temporarily disable your anti-virus, script blocking and any anti-malware real-time protection before performing a scan. They can interfere with ComboFix or remove some of its embedded files which may cause "unpredictable results".
  • Click on this link to see a list of programs that should be disabled. The list is not all inclusive. If yours is not listed and you don't know how to disable it, please ask.


  • NOTE: If ComboFix asks to install the Recovery Console, please ALLOW it to do so.


  • Double click on the renamed ComboFix.exe & follow the prompts.
  • When finished, it will produce a report for you.
  • Please post the C:\ComboFix.txt so we can continue cleaning the system.

Hello Zhora

Thank you for the log.


  • Please work through the following steps


    • Open Notepad (Click on "Start", then on "Run" and type "notepad" (without quotations) in the Open field, then click on "OK").
    • NOTE: Do not Use Wordpad or any other text editor except Notepad or the script will fail.
    • Copy and Paste the text in the quotebox below into the open Notepad window:

      File::
      c:\windows\Yzefoyamuz.dat
      c:\windows\Mlomahigus.bin

      Folder::
      c:\documents and settings\Christine\Local Settings\Application Data\tsnfnfukj

      Reglock::
      [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\software\LicCtrl\LicCtrl\LicCtrl\LicCtrl*lkzs$i&#&y@^t! #^$ g9^$&pgb SDB36o \DA9879757777DAE8]
      [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\software\LicCtrl\LicCtrl\LicCtrl\LicCtrl*lkzs$i&#&y@^t! #^$ g9^$&pgb SDB36o \DA9879757777DAE8\A4C6DC1D7052183A161573F7BA846387]

    • Save this as "CFScript.txt" (including the quotation marks), change the "Save as type" to "All Files" and save it to your desktop.
    • Close any open browsers.
    • Disable all anti virus and anti malware programs so they do not interfere with the running of ComboFix.
    • Refering to the picture below, drag CFScript.txt into ComboFix.exe

      [external image: Posted Image]
    • When finished, it shall produce a log for you at C:\ComboFix.txt which I will require in your next reply.
    • Once the log is produced, re-engage your resident anti virus.

  • Temporary File Cleaner


    • Download TFC to your desktop.
    • Close any open windows.
    • Double click the TFC icon to run the program.
    • TFC will close all open programs itself in order to run.
    • Click the Start button to begin the process.
    • Allow TFC to run uninterrupted.
    • The program should not take long to finish.
    • Once complete it should automatically reboot your machine.
    • If your machine does not reboot automatically, manually reboot to ensure a complete clean.
    • Note: After running TFC your machine may take slightly longer to boot the first time. This is normal.

  • MalwareBytes AntiMalware:


    • I see that you have MBAM installed.
    • Double click on your MalwareBytes AntiMalware icon to launch the program.
    • Click on the "Update" tab and then on "Check for Updates".
    • The program will now install the latest Malware definition files.
    • Once complete, click on the "Scanner" tab, select "Perform full scan"and then click on "Scan".
    • Once the program has scanned your computer, a log file will be created in Notepad.
    • Click on "Edit > Select All" then click on "Edit > Copy" to copy the entire contents of the log.


    • If the scan detects any Malware-related objects, make sure that everything is checked, and click "Remove Selected" <– Very Important.
    • When disinfection is completed, a log will open in Notepad and you may be prompted to restart your computer.
    • The log is automatically saved by MBAM and can be viewed by clicking the "Logs" tab.
    • Note: If MBAM encounters a file that is difficult to remove, you will be presented with 1 of 2 prompts, click OK to either and let MBAM proceed with the disinfection process. If asked to restart your computer, please do so immediately.
    • Come back here to this thread and Paste the log in your next reply.

    Please post the ComboFix log and the MBAM log in your next reply.
Good mor–er, afternoon! :D

Question: A friend of mine mentioned that 'redbook.sys' is needed for playing audio CDs on systems. Was mine corrupted or something?

Hello Zhora

Thank you for the logs.

A friend of mine mentioned that 'redbook.sys' is needed for playing audio CDs on systems. Was mine corrupted or something?

It was'nt corrupted. It was hooked by a TDSS rootkit. We replaced the infected file with a clean one :)

Lets run an Online scan to check for any leftovers:


  • Please update your Java


    • To update your Java, Click on "Start" then on "Control Panel" and then on the Java icon (looks like a coffee cup).
    • In the window that opens, click on the "Update" tab, and then on "Update Now".
    • Your Java should begin to update. Please follow any prompts that you receive.

  • Please perform the following scan:


    • This is a very deep scan that can take many hours. In some instances you may need to let it run overnight. Please be patient.


    • It is recommended that you disable your onboard antivirus program and antispyware programs while performing scans to eliminate software conflicts and to speed up scan time.
    • DO NOT surf the net while your resident protection is disabled!
    • Once the scan is finished remember to re-enable your resident antivirus protection along with whatever antispyware applications you use.


    • Please perform a Kaspersky Online Scan of your computer by clicking here or here.


    • Click on the Accept button and install any components it needs.
    • The program will install and then begin downloading the latest definition files.
    • After the files have been downloaded on the left side of the page in the Scan section select My Computer.
    • This will start the program and scan your system.
    • The scan will take a while, so be patient and let it run (at times it may appear to stall).
    • Once the update is complete, click on My Computer under the green Scan bar to the left to start the scan.
    • Once the scan is complete, it will display if your system has been infected. It does not provide an option to clean/disinfect. We only require a report from it.
    • Do NOT be alarmed by what you see in the report. Many of the finds have likely been quarantined.

    • Once the scan is complete, click on View scan report. To obtain the report:
    • Click on: Save Report As
    • Next, in the Save as prompt, Save in area, select: Desktop
    • In the File name area, use KScan, or something similar In Save as type, click the drop arrow and select:Text file [*.txt]
    • Then, click: Save
    • Please post the Kaspersky Online Scanner Report in your reply.
    • If you need help performing the above steps, an animated tutorial can be found here.

    Please post the Kaspersky Online Scan log in your next reply.

    Also, please describe how your system is behaving now. Are you still experiencing problems?
Okay, Kaspersky scan is done. My system is behaving better, however its also still recognizing my printer-scanner-copier as a remote storage device AS WELL AS a printer. Hoping that will be cleared up in the next reboot. I have a question about the log - all the found entries have 'rdwarf' in them, which is my email server. Does this mean that they came to my system via that server? If that's the case I'll need to let my friend who owns it know. Also, I never use the 'default user' account. Also, can I at least update my virus program and Spybot? You said I shouldn't download anything so I've been holding off on updating them since you said that. ——————————————————————————– KASPERSKY ONLINE SCANNER 7.0: scan report Sunday, July 25, 2010 Operating system: Microsoft Windows XP Professional Service Pack 3 (build 2600) Kaspersky Online Scanner version: 7.0.26.13 Last database update: Monday, July 26, 2010 00:23:35 Records in database: 4206437 ——————————————————————————– Scan settings: scan using the following database: extended Scan archives: yes Scan e-mail databases: yes Scan area - My Computer: A:\ C:\ D:\ E:\ Scan statistics: Objects scanned: 92589 Threats found: 4 Infected objects found: 18 Suspicious objects found: 21 Scan duration: 01:34:54 File name / Threat / Threats count C:\C\Application Data\Mozilla\Profiles\default\qs9zcqws.slt\Mail\mail.rdwarf.net\Inbox Infected: not-a-virus:Porn-Tool.Win32.Livsex 4 C:\C\Application Data\Mozilla\Profiles\default\qs9zcqws.slt\Mail\mail.rdwarf.net\Inbox Suspicious: Password-protected-EXE 1 C:\C\Application Data\Mozilla\Profiles\default\qs9zcqws.slt\Mail\mail.rdwarf.net\Inbox Suspicious: Trojan-Spy.HTML.Fraud.gen 5 C:\C\Application Data\Mozilla\Profiles\default\qs9zcqws.slt\Mail\mail.rdwarf.net\Inbox Infected: Exploit.HTML.ObjData 2 C:\C\Application Data\Mozilla\Profiles\default\qs9zcqws.slt\Mail\mail.rdwarf.net\Sent Suspicious: Trojan-Spy.HTML.Fraud.gen 1 C:\C\Application Data\Thunderbird\Profiles\noor4f5f.default\Mail\mail.rdwarf.net\Inbox Infected: not-a-virus:Porn-Tool.Win32.Livsex 4 C:\C\Application Data\Thunderbird\Profiles\noor4f5f.default\Mail\mail.rdwarf.net\Inbox Suspicious: Password-protected-EXE 1 C:\C\Application Data\Thunderbird\Profiles\noor4f5f.default\Mail\mail.rdwarf.net\Inbox Suspicious: Trojan-Spy.HTML.Fraud.gen 5 C:\C\Application Data\Thunderbird\Profiles\noor4f5f.default\Mail\mail.rdwarf.net\Inbox Infected: Exploit.HTML.ObjData 2 C:\C\Application Data\Thunderbird\Profiles\noor4f5f.default\Mail\mail.rdwarf.net\Sent Suspicious: Trojan-Spy.HTML.Fraud.gen 1 C:\C\Profiles\default\qs9zcqws.slt\Mail\mail.rdwarf.net\Inbox Infected: not-a-virus:Porn-Tool.Win32.Livsex 4 C:\C\Profiles\default\qs9zcqws.slt\Mail\mail.rdwarf.net\Inbox Suspicious: Password-protected-EXE 1 C:\C\Profiles\default\qs9zcqws.slt\Mail\mail.rdwarf.net\Inbox Suspicious: Trojan-Spy.HTML.Fraud.gen 5 C:\C\Profiles\default\qs9zcqws.slt\Mail\mail.rdwarf.net\Inbox Infected: Exploit.HTML.ObjData 2 C:\C\Profiles\default\qs9zcqws.slt\Mail\mail.rdwarf.net\Sent Suspicious: Trojan-Spy.HTML.Fraud.gen 1 Selected area has been scanned.
Hello Zhora

Thank you for the log.

You have a number of infected e-mails in what look like three different accounts. They most likely came through the server if this is the one you use. The Kaspersky scan does not tell us which ones are infected, only that they are there. For this reason you are advised to delete all old e-mails and all of those that have attachments, as these may be infected.

Also, it appears as though you may have inadvertantly sent some infected e-mails to other people, as some of the mail appears in your "sent" box (red). If you have recently sent out mail with attachments, it would be a good idea to contact the people you sent it to and tell them not to open it, but to delete it ASAP.


however its also still recognizing my printer-scanner-copier as a remote storage device AS WELL AS a printer. Hoping that will be cleared up in the next reboot.

Let me know of you are still having this problem after you reboot and I will put you in touch with our Tech Team.

Also, can I at least update my virus program and Spybot?

Go right ahead :thumbup:

Once you have cleaned out your e mails, please post a new DDS scan.
