Dear Staff (Volunteers) at What The Tech.com,

My desktop computer (Windows XP) ran aground some problems -

It is really sluggish when I open any internet browser - IE, Mozilla, Chrome, etc for at least the first 20 minutes.
It was never really like this before. I am pretty sure there is some virus lurking around recently and maybe some dormant rootkits.
Nonetheless, I am in dire need your help!

Thanks for everything ~

Looking forward to your response ^^

DO NOT use any TOOLS such as Combofix or HijackThis fixes without supervision.

Doing so could make your pc inoperatible and could require a full reinstall of your OS, losing all your programs and data.

Vista and Windows 7 users:
1. These tools MUST be run from the executable. (.exe) every time you run them
2. With Admin Rights (Right click, choose "Run as Administrator")

Stay with this topic until I give you the all clean post.

You might want to print these instructions out.

I suggest you do this:

XP Users

Double-click My Computer.
Click the Tools menu, and then click Folder Options.
Click the View tab.
Uncheck "Hide file extensions for known file types."
Under the "Hidden files" folder, select "Show hidden files and folders."
Uncheck "Hide protected operating system files."
Click Apply, and then click OK.


Vista Users

To enable the viewing of hidden and protected system files in Windows Vista please follow these steps:

Close all programs so that you are at your desktop.
Click on the Start button. This is the small round button with the Windows flag in the lower left corner.

Click on the Control Panel menu option.
When the control panel opens you can either be in Classic View or Control Panel Home view:

If you are in the Classic View do the following:
Double-click on the Folder Options icon.
Click on the View tab.


If you are in the Control Panel Home view do the following:

Click on the Appearance and Personalization link.
Click on Show Hidden Files or Folders.
Under the Hidden files and folders section select the radio button labeled Show hidden files and folders.
Remove the checkmark from the checkbox labeled Hide extensions for known file types.
Remove the checkmark from the checkbox labeled Hide protected operating system files.



Please do not delete anything unless instructed to.



Next:

Please download ATF Cleaner by Atribune.
Download - ATF Cleaner»
Double-click ATF-Cleaner.exe to run the program.
Under Main choose: Select All
Click the Empty Selected button.

If you use Firefox browser

Click Firefox at the top and choose: Select All
Click the Empty Selected button.
NOTE: If you would like to keep your saved passwords, please click No at the prompt.
If you use Opera browserClick Opera at the top and choose: Select All
Click the Empty Selected button.
NOTE: If you would like to keep your saved passwords, please click No at the prompt.
Click Exit on the Main menu to close the program.


It's normal after running ATF cleaner that the PC will be slower to boot the first time or two.

Next:

Please download Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware to your desktop.

  • 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.
  • [external image: Posted Image]
  • Then 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.


Also please describe how your computer behaves at the moment.


Please don't attach the scans / logs, use "copy/paste".

Dear LDTate, Thanks for the reply. I have performed the requested tasks - changing the folder options, running ATF Cleaner, and Malwarebytes. Here is the log for Malwarebytes: Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware 1.46 www.malwarebytes.org Database version: 4433 Windows 5.1.2600 Service Pack 3 Internet Explorer 8.0.6001.18702 8/15/2010 12:36:07 PM mbam-log-2010-08-15 (12-36-07).txt Scan type: Quick scan Objects scanned: 129504 Time elapsed: 5 minute(s), 49 second(s) Memory Processes Infected: 0 Memory Modules Infected: 0 Registry Keys Infected: 1 Registry Values Infected: 0 Registry Data Items Infected: 0 Folders Infected: 0 Files Infected: 0 Memory Processes Infected: (No malicious items detected) Memory Modules Infected: (No malicious items detected) Registry Keys Infected: HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Ext\Stats\{1d4db7d2-6ec9-47a3-bd87-1e41684e07bb} (Adware.MyWebSearch) -> Quarantined and deleted successfully. Registry Values Infected: (No malicious items detected) Registry Data Items Infected: (No malicious items detected) Folders Infected: (No malicious items detected) Files Infected: (No malicious items detected) _____________________________ It appears that there was on adware causing mischief, but I thought there would be more. As you told me, I did a Quick Scan instead of a Full Scan. PROBLEM: My internet browsers have been acting really sluggish recently so I figured something was wrong. I remember getting two of the same trojans couple weeks ago in different intervals, so I thought it was due to that. When I run, the "InPrivate" mode in IE 8, it is much faster. Nonetheless, considering the age of my desktop computer, I think there's a rootkit hidden somewhere. ———— Thanks for everything :) Looking forward to your reponse Best, RE-Ignite
Post #4
My IE8 is slow as well compared to IE6.

Download ComboFix from one of these locations:

Link 1
Link 2 If using this link, Right Click and select Save As.


* IMPORTANT !!! Save ComboFix.exe to your Desktop


  • Disable your AntiVirus and AntiSpyware applications, usually via a right click on the System Tray icon. They may otherwise interfere with our tools. Note: If you are having difficulty properly disabling your protective programs, or are unsure as to what programs need to be disabled, please refer to the information available through this link : Protective Programs

  • Double click on ComboFix.exe & follow the prompts.

    Notes: Combofix will run without the Recovery Console installed. Skip the Recovery Console part if you're running Vista or Windows 7.

    Note: If you have SP3, use the SP2 package.
    If Vista or Windows 7, skip the Recovery Console part
  • As part of it's process, ComboFix will check to see if the Microsoft Windows Recovery Console is installed. With malware infections being as they are today, it's strongly recommended to have this pre-installed on your machine before doing any malware removal. It will allow you to boot up into a special recovery/repair mode that will allow us to more easily help you should your computer have a problem after an attempted removal of malware.
  • Follow the prompts to allow ComboFix to download and install the Microsoft Windows Recovery Console, and when prompted, agree to the End-User License Agreement to install the Microsoft Windows Recovery Console.

**Please note: If the Microsoft Windows Recovery Console is already installed, ComboFix will continue it's malware removal procedures.

1.Do not mouse-click Combofix's window while it is running. That may cause it to stall.
2. ComboFix may reset a number of Internet Explorer's settings, including making I-E the default browser.

Give it atleast 20-30 minutes to finish if needed.

Please do not attach the scan results from Combofx. Use copy/paste.

Also please describe how your computer behaves at the moment.

Dear LDTate, Should I backup my files right now? Would there be a time where I need to completely format my computer? ComboFix won't delete any other files right? Thanks.

Should I backup my files right now?

You should always have a current back up.

Would there be a time where I need to completely format my computer?

I have no idea there.

ComboFix won't delete any other files right?

I haven't had any issues with CF deleting anything that wasn't bad.

LDTate,

Since I now use IE8 in "InPrivate Mode", it's the same. As for the regular mode, it's still the same, slow speed, if not slower.
I also have a question about the RAM where I am supposed to have 512 but have 502 or 503, is it due to corrupted hardware or?

Thanks for everything.
Post #8

the RAM where I am supposed to have 512 but have 502 or 503, is it due to corrupted hardware or

The system will take some RAM.
512 is pretty low. You should think about adding more. It would make a big difference.

Log is clean.


The following will implement some cleanup procedures as well as reset System Restore points:

  • Click START run
  • Now type ComboFix /Uninstall in the runbox and click OK. Note the space between the X and the U, it needs to be there.

LDTate, I just uninstalled ComboFix. Now what do I do? My internet browsers are still unbearably slow. Running in "InPrivate" mode is the only way to get by. What should I do next? Thanks for everything ~
Post #11
LDTate, Thanks for the suggestion, I will look into that. In the meantime, can I format my computer? Because I think maybe the problem lies there for I haven't formatted my computer for more than a year. Is it a good idea? Thanks. With blessings, RE-Ignite

If you have your windows CD you can reformat and re-install. Keep in mind anything saved / installed will be lost.
Post #13
Yea, of course. I already tried it many times before. It's just my last resort. I was just wondering if I could fix the problem without formatting, but I guess not. Thanks for everything nonetheless. Take Care. With Blessings, RE-Ignite
