Greetings and welcome to TomCoyote.org!

Download/install APM

Run APM

Click on each item in the upper window, then look in the lower window.

Check to see which processes are using:

C:\WINDOWS\security\Database\urlrun.dll

Post back letting me know all processes using that DLL.

Copy the text in the following quote box into Notepad:

dir C:\WINDOWS\security\Database\ /ah > files.txt
dir C:\WINDOWS\security\Database\ >> files.txt
notepad files.txt


Save it to your desktop as ff.bat.

Close Notepad

Now, the ff.bat file on the desktop.

Wait for a Notepad window to open up.

Please paste it's contents into your next post.
:)
The program running C:\WINDOWS\security\Database\urlrun.dll is

408 - c:\windows\explorer.exe

This is what the Notepad read:

Thank you for doing this!
There are two methods of removal.

I am posting both.

You can decide which you prefer.

===================================================

METHOD 1

Step 1:

Please download Process Explorer by Systernals from:

Process Explorer

Also download/unzip KillBox by Option^Explicit from:

Killbox.zip

Step 2:

Download this file and save it to your desktop:

FixVundo Registry File

Copy/paste the text in the Quote box below into Notepad, and save it on the desktop as "killme.txt"

C:\WINDOWS\security\Database\urlrun.dll
C:\WINDOWS\security\Database\nurlru.bak1
C:\WINDOWS\security\Database\nurlru.bak2
C:\WINDOWS\security\Database\nurlru.ini
C:\WINDOWS\security\Database\nurlru.ini2
C:\WINDOWS\security\Database\nurlru.tmp


Step 3:

Print out the following instructions as you will not have Internet Access for the rest of this fix.

Reboot in "safe" mode.

The rest of this fix must be done in safe mode.

Unzip Process Explorer and double click on procexp.exe

In the top section of the Process Exlporer screen double-click on winlogon.exe to bring up the winlogon.exe properties screen. Click on the Threads tab at the top.

Once you see this screen click on each instance of:

urlrun.dll

once and then click the kill button.

After you have killed all of:

urlrun.dll

under winlogon click OK.

If you see any of the files listed below, kill them as well.

Files to look for:
————————–
nurlru.bak1
nurlru.bak2
nurlru.ini
nurlru.ini2
nurlru.tmp

BE SURE TO KILL ONLY THESE FILES!!!

Probably not all of them will be present. That is OK.

Next double-click on explorer.exe, select the Threads tab, and again click once on each instance of:

urlrun.dll

then click the kill button.

If you see any of the files listed below kill them as well.

Files to look for:
————————–
nurlru.bak1
nurlru.bak2
nurlru.ini
nurlru.ini2
nurlru.tmp

BE SURE TO KILL ONLY THESE FILES!!!

Probably not all of them will be present. That is OK

Once you have done that click OK again.

Next run Hijack This! and place a check beside each of the following.

O2 - BHO: MSEvents Object - {B8B55274-0F9A-41E5-9067-A3539BD9E860} - C:\WINDOWS\security\Database\urlrun.dll

O16 - DPF: {AB29A544-D6B4-4E36-A1F8-D3E34FC7B00A} - http://install.wildtangent.com/bgn/partner…yle/install.cab

O20 - Winlogon Notify: urlrun - C:\WINDOWS\security\Database\urlrun.dll

Now click Fix checked and close HijackThis.

Now double-click on the vundo.reg file that you saved on your desktop earlier and allow it to merge with the registry.

Step 4:

On the desktop, open the "killme.txt" file with Notepad.

Then copy the all file names in the "killme.txt" to the clipboard by highlighting them and pressing C (hold the key down, then press C):

Close "killme.txt".

Double click on Killbox.exe and then check the Delete on reboot button.

In Killbox, click File (in the upper left of Killbox), and choose "Paste from Clipboard".

Click the red dot with the white X in it, in the upper right of Killbox, then click "Yes", and "Yes" again.

After the reboot, "copy/paste" a new Hijack This! log file into this thread. :)

===================================================

METHOD 2

Please print these instructions out for use in Safe Mode.

Please download VundoFix.exe to your desktop.
  • Double-click VundoFix.exe to extract the files
  • This will create a VundoFix folder on your desktop.
  • After the files are extracted, please reboot your computer into Safe Mode. You can do this by restarting your computer and continually tapping the F8 key until a menu appears. Use your up arrow key to highlight Safe Mode then hit enter.
  • Once in safe mode open the VundoFix folder and doubleclick on KillVundo.bat
  • You will first be presented with a warning and a list of forums to seek help at.
    it should look like this

Ok, I did METHOD 2, and when I went in safe mode, i opened the vundo thing file. After a few minutes the same message came up about system restore and the background went away. I don't think it affected anything, b/c I got through the process anyway.

Here is the Log

Items you may wish to consider to harden your defenses against future infections:

Read "How did I get infected in the first place?"

Download/install IE-Spyad

IE-Spyad puts over 4000 known malicious web sites into IE's "restricted zone" to help prevent you from getting infected.

Check your browser settings at Qualsys.com

A series of "tests" (and suggested fixes) to help tweak IE's settings to help prevent infections when surfing the web.

Follow safe Internet practices:

1. Keep your virus definitions up to date, and scan your system regularly.

2. Don't open email, or download attachments from unrecognized email addresses.

3. Be careful when downloading email attachments, EVEN FROM PEOPLE YOU KNOW! Many virii, worms, and trojans infect a persons system then immeadiately spread themselves to the people in the infected persons addressbook via email attachments.

4. Be careful downloading files from the Internet. Scan all downloaded files with a reliable UP-TO-DATE antivirus program. Scan "zip" files BEFORE unzipping, and scan all unzipped files BEFORE USING THEM.

5. Keep your Windows and IE current with all the latest patches and updates.
