Post #1
My system is running very slowly with explorer.exe taking 99% of the CPU.

The only way to stop explorer.exe from taking so much of the CPU is to turn off DHCP client.

Even though turning off DHCP client seems to stop the problem, I don't see any network traffic when DHCP client is running. I also tried the experiment of disconnecting the physical ethernet and explorer.exe still takes up 99% of the CPU.

I'm hoping someone can help me.

You have a "Winfixer/Vundo" infection as evident by these entries in the log:

O2 - BHO: (no name) - {00DBDAC8-4691-4797-8E6A-7C6AB89BC441} - C:\WINDOWS\system32\gebcy.dll

O2 - BHO: MSEvents Object - {FC148228-87E1-4D00-AC06-58DCAA52A4D1} - C:\WINDOWS\system32\mljjg.dll

O20 - Winlogon Notify: gebcy - C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM32\gebcy.dll

O20 - Winlogon Notify: mljjg - C:\WINDOWS\system32\mljjg.dll

This infection "hooks" itself into explorer.exe, and also winlogon.exe (which explains your cpu usage).

Here is your first step on the "road to recovery":

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!

I'm having problems with safe mode. When I boot into safe mode I'm getting a black screen with safe mode at the four corners. No gui. Can this be run from a command prompt or not in safe mode? Al Cook

Thank you VERY much.

The log looks good!!! :thumbup:

I hope you remembered to delete the files I posted about earlier.

If so, you should be "good to go".

GOD bless you!!!

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.

Feebback on the solution. This worked great until I rebooted. When I rebooted, and I tried several times, I did not get a desktop. I have successfully booted into safe mode and do have a desktop there. Any thoughts? Al Cook
