My First Log File

Hello kevy-jo

You have one of the most severe infections we see these days and it will take a few posts to get rid of it. I would like you to do the following steps in order following the instructions carefully:

Step #1

Please download and open the following zip file. Double-click on the file inside the zip and when it asks you if you would like to merge the file into your registry, please answer yes. This will make sure all files are visible on your computer.

http://www.davehigham.zen.co.uk/downloads/xphidden.zip


Step #2

The first thing I need you to do is download the file from here:

Getservice.zip

1. Extract the file to the c:\ drive.

2. Then navigate to the c:\getservices and double-click on the getservices.bat file.

3. A notepad will open up. Please paste the contents of that notepad as a reply to this post.




Step #3

This infection often continues to reinstall itself through a hidden dll which we have to find and remove.

1. Please download DllCompare
( The Screenshot will show you how the program will look when it starts.)

2. Start the Program with its default settings and put a check mark in the include subdirectories. Click the Run Locate.com and wait until the scan says complete.

3. Click the Compare button to start the next process.

4. Files in the upper portion have been verified to "exist", Files in the bottom section were not able to be accessed. Very few files should be listed in the bottom section when the Compare scan is complete.

5. Click on each of the listed entries in the lower section to select them. Right-click on the file and use the Option Rescan screenshot.

6. This will cause Windows Find to see if the file does exist, and then it will be removed from the list (to reduce the number of identified files) screenshot

7. Click the Make a Log of what was found button, and post the log here in this thread using Add Reply to receive further instructions.



Step #4

Please post the two log files here in this thread using 'Add Reply'

Hey dgosling, Thanks for your help so far. Sorry that it took me so long to reply. I just figured out how to check on the responses people reply to me.

Hi Kevy-Jo,

This is a common error that occurs with Windows XP at times. There are two things you can do to get DllCompare to run (and any other program that causes these errors)

Step#1

1. This issue may occur if one or more of the following files are missing or damaged:
• Config.nt
• Autoexec.nt
• Command.com

2. First find DllCompare on your hard drive and right click on DllCompare.exe and choose Properties>Compatibility and choose run this program in compatibility mode for Windows 98, Windows 95 or Windows 3.11 whichever works. Compatibility for Windows 98 should work for this program.

3. Start DllCompare. If you receive the same error please continue with the next step:


Step#2

Following these steps will produce a file in notepad that appears to contain gibberish. Please post the entire contents of the Notepad Window back here.

1. Please Copy the contents of the quote box to Notepad.

Reg save "HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Windows" windows1.hiv
ren windows1.hiv windows.txt

2. Save the notepad file as *All Files* with the name the file Appinit.bat
on the Desktop.

3. Double-click on Appinit.bat

4. This will create a file on the desktop named windows.txt

5. Please post the entire contents of Windows.txt to this thread using 'Add Reply'.

dgosling, I did as you said. I tried all of the windows operating systems in the combatibility options. None of them worked. So I moved on to step two. I put that file on the desktop saved as Appinit.bat. when i opened it, the file opened and closed in a split second. it wouldn't let me view it. The window just went away in the blink of an eye. I barely had time to see that the window appeared. what should I do? -Kevy-Jo

Hi Kevy-jo
Sounds like the infection has eaten your copy of Notepad which it often does. You should be able to find a clean copy of it in C:\Windows\System32\dllcache\ It is a hidden folder in windows that keeps copies of the files when the OS is originally installed. Please attempt to copy notepad.exe from C:\Windows\System32\dllcache\ to C:\Windows\ AND C:\Windows\System32. It should be 65kb (66,048 bytes) in size.

You could also try searching for Windows.txt with windows and see if you have the file on your hard drive. If you find the file, please go to Start>All Programs>Accessories> Wordpad and use Wordpad to open the file. If successful then you can use the contents of the Wordpad file to post here.

If you are unable to find or copy Notepad.exe Please go to the following
http://spywareinfo.com/~merijn/files/windows/notepad_xp.zip
and download the notepad_XP.zip and install according to the following directions:
Windows XP:
Download the copy for your Windows version and unzip it first into the folder C:\WINDOWS\System32\dllcache (overwriting any existing copy), then into the folder it needs to go for your Windows version.
To see what Windows version you have, right-click the 'My Computer' icon on the desktop and click 'Properties'.

Hopefully this will allow you to then copy and paste and use Notepad to make and use AppInit.Bat which should produce the file Windows.txt.

It appears you are having no luck running DllCompare but there is one last way to find the hidden dll that I will give you if these don't work.

dgosling, No such luck… The Notepad.exe file wasn't in the dllcache folder, so I had to download it from the link that you gave to me. I installed the unzipped file to the two folders like you said, writing over the old programs… tried to run the Appinit.bat file… no luck. I even delete all of the files and started from scratch (after installing a fresh version of notepad, I copied & pasted the quote from the previous post into a file in notepad, and saved it as Appinit.bat on the desktop under "all files." Nothing changed at all. It still opens and disappears in the blink of an eye. There was a bit of progress made. This time it created a file on my desktop called windows1.hiv; however, i could not open this program b/c I didn't know what type of file it was & which program to select to open it… While I was searching for Notepad.exe in the dllcache folder (and didn't find it), I opened "Start > search" and looked for the file there. While I had Search open, I looked for the windows.txt file as well… I didn't find it. I hope you like a good challenge. I'm sorry that this is such a pain. And I want to thank you for everything that you've done so far, and everything that you continue to do! - Kevy-jo

dgosling, the windows.txt file just appeared on my desktop a few minutes ago, for some reason. I think it might be one of the effects of the virus (everything is super-slowed down with my computer). I hope this is what you need… regf

Hello Kevy-jo
Well I hate to tell you this but sometimes not being able to find the files is bad because they have changed names. These bad infections often do this on a predetermined schedule and/or when you restart your computer. They are very stubborn and difficult to remove sometimes but they always succumb eventually.

I suspect that some of them have changed names, yes we have got rid of some of the junk which is great, every less infected file is good.

You said you have a folder named movdi which now contains a some of the R files. Would you please zip that folder up and attach it to an email and send it along with a link to this thread in the body of the email to This Email Address. Our developers would like identify those files for the infection they carry.

You said:

in step 4: most of the files and folders weren't there to delete

I am not sure I understand you as step 4 was to download, install and run Spybot SD. Was it another step or that one.

Your HijackThis log still shows some bad files. I wonder about the program that you are running called quickidrive tools1.1. Have you had it long or is it fairly new? Do you know that it is a legitimate program or could it be malware? Often the malware masquerades as a program and the only way the person finds out about it, is to remove it. Let me know what you know about it.

Now Let's try using HijackThis to remove some more files:

To remove the spyware/adware/malware from your computer please:

1. Please use CTRL-ALT-DEL to bring up the Task Manager and End Task on the following files if they still exist:

C:\WINDOWS\SYSCFG16.EXE
C:\WINDOWS\System32\?hkdsk.exe

2. Go to Start>Control Panel>Add Remove Programs and uninstall Adware BuddyLinks or PSD Tools or any variation thereof.


3. Scan again with HijackThis (ALL WINDOWS CLOSED EXCEPT HJT)

4. Put a check mark beside each of the following entries in the HJT window
