Hi,

Few days ago my computer was infected with a trojan that tried to get me to buy a programme called security suit.

I followed online guides and removed it with Malwarebytes, then ran AVG and Spybot.

Today AVG located a trojan (Trojan horse Hiloti.BC) in C:windows\ibenpi.dll - have looked on goggle but appears there is no info on this file. AVG needed to restart the computer to remove the file, now when I come into windows it pops up a message saying missing dll ibenpi.dll (however apart from this everything seems ok).

I'm worried to have got another trojan so soon after this first which makes me think I still have something, I've attached a hijackthis log if anyone could perhapes tell me what I should remove it would be a great help or have any advice on what I should do.

Seems to be getting worse now, I am getting redirected all the time to different sites. Ran the online panda scan and it found two files infected with this http://www.pandasecurity.com/homeusers/sec…?idvirus=195131 but was unable to remove them. The files infected were "upgrade[1].cab[upgrade.exe]" and "cab[upgrade.exe][resultdns.dll]" - these were shown to be in a folder in my documents and settings that doesn't appear to actually exist on my computer even when I go display all and don't come up when I search for them.

I also noticed a strange task running in task manager "wscntfy.exe" which I looked up and apparently is a virus. I went in to safe mode and deleted to files associated with it after scanning.

I have tried going to the windows update site but I either get redirected or it just won't load.

Hi,

Download DDS and save it to your desktop from here or here or here.
Disable any script blocker, and then double click dds file to run the tool.
  • When done, DDS will open two (2) logs:
    • DDS.txt
    • Attach.txt
  • Save both reports to your desktop. Post them back to your topic.

  • Please Download Rootkit Unhooker Save it to your desktop.
  • Now double-click on RKUnhookerLE.exe to run it.
  • Click the Report tab, then click Scan.
  • Check (Tick) Drivers, Stealth, Files, Code Hooks. Uncheck the rest. then Click OK.
  • Wait till the scanner has finished and then click File, Save Report.
  • Save the report somewhere where you can find it. Click Close.
Copy the entire contents of the report and paste it in a reply here.

Note** you may get this warning it is ok, just ignore

Rootkit Unhooker has detected a parasite inside itself!
It is recommended to remove parasite, okay?
