Download L2mfix from one of these two locations:

http://www.atribune.org/downloads/l2mfix.exe

http://www.downloads.subratam.org/l2mfix.exe

Save the file to your desktop and l2mfix.exe. Click the Install button to extract the files and follow the prompts, then open the newly added l2mfix folder on your desktop.

l2mfix.bat and select option #1 for Run Find Log by typing 1 and then pressing .

This will scan your computer and it may appear nothing is happening, then, after a minute or 2, Notepad will open with a log. Copy/paste the contents of that log into this thread.


IMPORTANT: Do NOT run option #2 OR any other files in the l2mfix folder until you are asked to do so!


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 any of these DLL's:

C:\WINDOWS\system32\awvts.dll
C:\WINDOWS\system32\ddayv.dll
C:\WINDOWS\system32\jkkji.dll
C:\WINDOWS\system32\pmkhh.dll
C:\WINDOWS\system32\ssqro.dll
C:\WINDOWS\system32\vtsqo.dll
C:\WINDOWS\system32\vtsqp.dll
C:\WINDOWS\system32\vtstq.dll


Post back letting me know all processes using those DLL's.
:)
Hope I post this correctly

Most people get two options to remove this malware.

However, you have so many malware DLL's active, that we can only use one fix.

It is the most "complicated", but we have no choice.

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\System32\awvts.dll
C:\WINDOWS\System32\ddayv.dll
C:\WINDOWS\System32\hhkmp.ini
C:\WINDOWS\System32\ijkkj.ini
C:\WINDOWS\System32\jkkji.dll
C:\WINDOWS\System32\oqstv.ini
C:\WINDOWS\System32\orqss.ini
C:\WINDOWS\System32\orqss.bak2
C:\WINDOWS\System32\orqss.bak1
C:\WINDOWS\System32\pmkhh.dll
C:\WINDOWS\System32\pqstv.ini
C:\WINDOWS\System32\qtstv.ini
C:\WINDOWS\System32\ssqro.dll
C:\WINDOWS\System32\stvwa.ini
C:\WINDOWS\System32\stvwa.bak2
C:\WINDOWS\System32\stvwa.bak1
C:\WINDOWS\System32\vtsqp.dll
C:\WINDOWS\System32\vtsqo.dll
C:\WINDOWS\System32\vtstq.dll
C:\WINDOWS\System32\vyadd.ini2
C:\WINDOWS\System32\vyadd.bak2
C:\WINDOWS\System32\vyadd.tmp
C:\WINDOWS\System32\vyadd.ini
C:\WINDOWS\System32\vyadd.bak1
C:\Program Files\winupdates\winupdates.exe


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.

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. :)

GOOD JOB!!! :thumbup:

Your's was the "worst" Winfixer infected computer I've seen so far.

M68 :)

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.
