Posted 22 January 2006 - 06:22 PM

A few months ago my virus software detected the virtumondo trojen on my system (HP pavilion laptop). I played around with it for a while and thought it went away. Then, this past week I turned on the laptop and it took forever to boot up. I have run virus scan and spybot but neither picked up anything, they were updated. Bootups were taking about a minuite and are now taking five or more. Here is my hyjackthis log. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Gnome42,

Welcome to Tom Coyote, sorry about the delay but we are just swamped with logs. Your log still shows signs of the Vundo Trojan, but before we can clean it up, I need you to move HJT to its own folder.



DO THIS FIRST
Your HIJACKTHIS program is current, but it is very important that it resides in its own folder.
We will use Hijackthis (HJT) to make changes to your system and HJT will make backups of those changes,
If HJT is not in its own folder, those backups could be lost.

Easy to fix,
* just go to MY COMPUTER > YOUR C:\ DRIVE and create a new folder and name it HIJACKTHIS .
* Now scroll to where you have HJT currently, right click on the HJT icon and select CUT .
* Now open the new folder you just created and right click within that folder and select PASTE .
* Now HJT should reside in C:\HIJACKTHIS\HIJACKTHIS.EXE



Please post a new HJT log as your system may have changed since your original post.


Ken :D

Here is the log you requested. What takes the most time is startup and shut down. the system runs ok if it is pluged in. If it is unpluged the system bogs down.

Hi David,

I understand startup and shutdown problems but not quite sure what you mean by plugged in?

Lets run the fix for Vundo, and hopefully this will correct any problems


Please download VundoFix.exe to your desktop.
  • Double-click VundoFix.exe to run it.
  • Put a check next to Run VundoFix as a task.
  • You will receive a message saying vundofix will close and re-open in a minute or less. Click OK
  • When VundoFix re-opens, click the Scan for Vundo button.
  • Once it's done scanning, click the Remove Vundo button.
  • You will receive a prompt asking if you want to remove the files, click YES
  • Once you click yes, your desktop will go blank as it starts removing Vundo.
  • When completed, it will prompt that it will shutdown your computer, click OK.
  • Turn your computer back on.
  • Please post the contents of C:\vundofix.txt and a new HiJackThis log.

This system is a laptop. When it is not plugged in the processor runs at a lower speed to extend battery life. But since this system has been infected, I cannot use the system when it is running off the battery because it runs so slow. I downloaded VundoFix and ran it as you requested but it did not find any infected files.

Gnome42,

That sucker is still there, there are a few varients of this infection, lets try this other fix.


Please start by downloading VirtumundoBegone http://secured2k.hom...mundoBeGone.exe and save it to your desktop. When you have done this doubleclick on VirtumundoBeGone.exe and follow the instructions. Do not worry if you see a BLUE SCREEN "Fatal Error" Message, it is normal and expected.

When it has finished, reboot and post the log that is created on your desktop called VBG.TXT in your next reply.

Then open HJT Scan Only and if this line is still present , fix it with HJT.

O20 - Winlogon Notify: jkhhe - C:\WINDOWS\system32\jkhhe.dll (file missing)

Then post the VBG.TXT and a new HJT log.

Ken :D

I love computers!!! Last night I restarted my system and it shut down and started up at its normal speed. I restarted again today running only on battery and it is slower then I remember but still reasonable. I ran the scans that you wanted including fixing the line you requested. They are below. In reviewing the HJT log I found some refrences to programs that I removed from my system. They are Dantz Retrospect and Google Toolbar. I dont think they are causing problems but I thought I removed them correctly.

On a side note. When I first began using TomCoyote my virus scan found Vundo. I attempted to use Spybot to remove it but it did not work. I began browsing through peoples logs to see if someone had problems like I did. I began following the procedure outlined in someone elses log. I know, I know. Each case is individual. But I did use the VundoFix program and it found something in explorer.exe. I got so far as to go into safemode but though better and restarted into normal mode without doing any damage (I think). Shortly after that my system started behaving normaly again so I thought the problem was solved.

Two weeks or so ago my system just bogged down again. I ran the spyware and the virus scan but it did not pick up anything. That is when I posted my HJT log on this site.

I hope this extra background information is useful somehow. Here are my logs.

Gnome42,

Its gone :thumbup: Your log looks ok :D I dont see anything bad on your log. I am including some tips and free programs for you to install to help keep you more secure. Some of the progams and suggestions will clean up your system real well and that might aid in making your system a little faster.


You said you removed Dantz Retrospect , but I still see it running on your system. I have it on my system with my Maxtor One Touch External Hard drive and it does a good job for me with no problems. If you want it off, you can remove it from the Add Remove programs in the Control Panel.

Here are some free programs and tips for keeping your system up to date, and to help keep all the riff raff out of your system.

* Download and Install CCleaner, Click on RUN TOOL, when you run the Issues Scan and it asks
you to back up the registry Say Yes.

Now that your clean, we need to erase all possible older infected files that may still be lurking on your system.
* Clean out your TEMP FILES
* This procedure should be run from SAFEMODE for better results.

To Enter SAFEMODE

* Go to START/ SHUT OF YOUR COMPUTER/ RESTART
* As the computer starts to boot-up, Tap the F8 KEY somewhat rapidly, this will bring up a menu.
* Use the UP AND DOWN ARROW KEYS to scroll up to SAFEMODE
* Then press the ENTER KEY ON YOUR KEYBOARD

* Go to My Computer/ C: Drive/ Documents and Settings/ Local Settings/ Every User on this Computer
and delete all the contents of the Temp Folder

* Go to My Computer/ C:/ Windows/ Temp and delete all the contents of the Temp Folder

* Go to My Computer/ C:/ Windows/ Prefetch and remove all the contents of the Prefetch Folder.
But not the Prefetch folder itself.

NOW RE-BOOT NORMALLY


* Open INTERNET EXPLORER
* Click on the TOOLS MENU
* Then INTERNET OPTIONS
* At the GENERAL TAB (which should be the first tab you are currently on),
* click on the DELETE FILES BUTTON and put a checkmark in DELETE ALL OFFLINE CONTENT.
* Then press the OK BUTTON . This may take quite a while, so do not be alarmed with how long it takes.
* When it is done, your Temporary Internet Files will now be deleted.

Now Empty your Recycle Bin

System Restore makes regular backups of all your settings, if you ever had to use this program to restore your
system to a previous date, you will be infected all over again so we need to clean out the previous Restore Points

Turn off System Restore.

* Right-click My Computer.
* Click Properties.
* Click the System Restore tab.
* Check Turn off System Restore on all Drives.
* Click Apply, and then click OK.

Reboot your System

Turn ON System Restore.

* Right-click My Computer.
* ClickProperties.
* Click the System Restore tab.
* UN-Check Turn off System Restore on all Drives.
* Click Apply, and then click OK.

* Go to Start/ Control Panel/ Performance and Maintenance/ System Restore/ Create a New Restore Point
You can name the restore point anything you like, something that you can remember

* Make sure that your ANTI-VIRUS SOFTWARE is up to date and run a full scan at least once aweek.

* Here are Free Anti-Virus Programs if you need one

AVG Free Edition
AntVir Personal Edition


* Spybot Search and Destroy 1.4
Check for Updates/ Immunize and run a Full System Scan on a regular basis.

* Ad-Aware SE Personal 1.06
Check for Updates and run a Full System Scan on a regular basis.

* Spyware Blaster It will prevent most spyware from ever being installed.

* Spyware Guard It offers realtime protection from spyware installation attempts.

* Win Patrol This program will warn you when any changes are being made to your system and
give you the option to deny the change.

* IE- Spyad IE-Spyad places over 4000 web sites and domains
in the IE Restricted list which will severely impair attempts to infect your system. It basically prevents any downloads (cookies etc) from the sites listed,
although you will still be able to connect to the sites.

* Firefox Browser
It has more features and is a lot more secure than IE. It is a very easy and painless download and install, it will no way interfere with IE, you can use
them both. When it asks you if you want it to be your default browser, say NO and take the checkmark out of the box to ask you again. After you use this
for awhile, you will want to make it your default.

* Thunderbird Mail There companion mail program was highly favored in PCWorld Magazine,
this has a good spam filter and is more secure than Outlook Express.

* Zone Alarm Here is a free Firewall from Zone Labs, I wouldn't
access the internet without it.

* WINDOWS UPDATES - Enable Automatic Updates
Right click on MY COMPUTER/Click on PROPERTIES/ AUTOMATIC UPDATES and put a mark in the radio button
DOWNLOAD UPDATES FOR ME BUT LET ME CHOOSE WHEN TO INSTALL THEM.

* Go to START/ CONTROL PANEL> PERFORMANCE AND MAINTENANCE> REARRANGE ITEMS ON YOUR HARD DISK TO MAKE PROGRAMS RUN FASTER
This is the Windows Disk Defragger, run this maybe once or twice a month to keep your system running good. The first time you run it, it may take awhile.


Post back if you feel you still have issues after the cleaning. Computers get old and build up a lot of junk over time, they do slow down a little, but if it is really noticeable, it could be a problem somewhere, maybe even software or hardware related.

I will keep this thead open for you for a week or so in case you have any other questions.

Thanks for using Tom Coyote.

Ken :D

I will be off line until Monday evening.
