  • Open Microsoft Windows Defender. Click Start, Programs, Windows Defender
  • Click on Tools, General Settings.
  • Under Real-time protection options, unselect the Turn on real-time protection check box
  • Click Save
After all of the fixes are complete it is very important that you enable Real-time Protection again.
  • The following explains how to remove items from your computer that are malware. These items must be fixed!

    Please set your system to show all files; please see here if you're unsure how to do this.

    Scan with HijackThis. Place a check against each of the following:
    R0 - HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main,Local Page = \blank.htm
    O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [outlook] C:\Program Files\outlook\outlook.exe /auto
    O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [newname] c:\\newname25.exe
    O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [keyboard] c:\\keyboard25.exe
    O4 - HKLM\..\RunServices: [p2p networking] p2pnetworking.exe
    O20 - AppInit_DLLs: C:\WINDOWS\system32\notepad.dll

    Close all windows or browsers except for Hijackthis. Click on Fix Checked when finished and exit HijackThis.

    Reboot into Safe Mode: please see here if you are not sure how to do this.

    Using Windows Explorer, locate the following files/folders, and delete them:
    C:\Program Files\outlook\<=folder

    You may need to do search to locate following files:
    c:\\newname25.exe<=file
    c:\\keyboard25.exe<=file
    p2pnetworking.exe<=file

    C:\WINDOWS\system32\notepad.dll<=file

    Exit Explorer, and reboot..

    Now run this online scan using Internet Explorer:
    Kaspersky Online Scanner from http://www.kaspersky.com/virusscanner

    Next Click on Launch Kaspersky Online Scanner

    You will be prompted to install an ActiveX component from Kaspersky, Click Yes.
    • The program will launch and then begin downloading the latest definition files:
    • Once the files have been downloaded click on NEXT
    • Now click on Scan Settings
    • In the scan settings make that the following are selected:
    • Scan using the following Anti-Virus database:
    • Standard
    • Scan Options:
    • Scan Archives
    • Scan Mail Bases
    • Click OK
    • Now under select a target to scan:
    • Select My Computer
    • This will program will start and scan your system.
    • The scan will take a while so be patient and let it run.
    • Once the scan is complete it will display if your system has been infected.
    • Now click on the Save as Text button:
    • Save the file to your desktop.
    Copy and paste that information from Kapersky in your next post.

STEP 1.
======
Navigate to C:\Documents and Settings\(EVERY LISTED USER)\Local Settings\Temp to delete the items in the Temp folder (but not the Temp folder itself)
Click Edit, click Select All, press the DELETE key, and then click Yes to confirm that you want to send all the items to the Recycle Bin.

Note: If you cannot seem to navigate to the Temp folder above , use the Search feature and search on C:\Documents and Settings\(EVERY LISTED USER)\Local Settings\Temp\*.*

Clean out your Temporary Internet files. Proceed like this:
  • Quit Internet Explorer and quit any instances of Windows Explorer.
  • Click Start, click Control Panel, and then double-click Internet Options.
  • On the General tab, click Delete Files under Temporary Internet Files.
  • In the Delete Files dialog box, click to select the Delete all offline content check box , and then click OK.
  • On the General tab, click Delete Cookies under Temporary Internet Files, and then click OK.
  • Click on the Programs tab then click the Reset Web Settings button. Click Apply then OK.
  • Click OK.

Now delete the following file:
C:\Mendoza1.exe<=file

Empty the Recycle Bin by right-clicking the Recycle Bin icon on your Desktop, and then clicking Empty Recycle Bin.

Please repeat Kapersky and let's see what is left. Please note that we will eliminate infected _restore files later in a last step.

Looks like other than infected restore files, the PurityScan junk is left.

An uninstall program is available on the PuritySCAN.com Web site. Go to http://www.purityscan.com/uninstall.html and follow the instructions.

I noticed you have ewido installed on your computer. Please run an ewido scan and post (reply) with the results. Please let me know if it was a trial and has expired, then we will do something else.
I ran two scans of ewido, both in safe mode. I have posted both. Ewido is a free download, but it has not expired.-not sure if it does have an expiration date. ——————————————————— ewido anti-spyware - Scan Report ——————————————————— + Created at: 9:36:17 AM 2/07/2006 + Scan result: C:\Documents and Settings\Brendan Home\Local Settings\Temp\wups.exe -> Adware.PurityScan : No action taken.

Download Pocket Killbox from http://www.downloads.subratam.org/KillBox.zip and unzip it; save it to your Desktop. DO NOT RUN IT YET.
==========
Double-click on KillBox.exe to launch the program. It is thered circle with a large white X in it
- Highlight the files in bold RED below and press the Ctrl key and the C key at the same time to copy them to the clipboard
C:\WINDOWS\system32\__delete_on_reboot__m_s_d_t_c_._d_l_l_
C:\WINDOWS\system32\msdtc.dll
C:\Documents and Settings\Lucas\Local Settings\Application Data\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\ob82xvbm.default\Cache\D536F5C1d01


In Killbox click on the File menu and then the Paste from Clipboard item
in the Full Path of File to Delete field drop down the arrow and make sure that all of the files are listed
(Please note that the tool checks your computer for the presence of the files pasted into the box so if files are not present, it is possible that you might not see all files you pasted into the box.)
Click the option to Delete on Reboot
- If not greyed out click the checkbox for Unregister .dll Before Deleting
- click End Explorer Shell while Killing File
- Now click on the red button with a white 'X' in the middle to delete the files
- Click Yes when it says all files will be deleted on the next reboot
- Click Yes when it asks if you want to reboot now
(Note: If you get a "PendingFileRenameOperations Registry Data has been Removed by External Process!" message then just reboot manually)

Note: Killbox will let you know if a file does not exist. If that happens, just continue on.

If you have any issues with this method you can copy and paste the lines one at a time into the killbox top box. Then click the "Single File" button. Then click the Red X …and for the confirmation message that will appear, you will need to click Yes. A second message will ask to Reboot now? you will need to click No until the last one at which time you click yes to allow the reboot.

Then please run Kapersky again and please post (reply) with the results. Thank you for your patience while we work on getting rid of the Purity Scan items.

Hello bcar,

Looks good!

Do you have a firewall application or are you relying on the Windows XP firewall? I would recommend using a firewall application over just Windows XP.

Also you need to update your Java. Step 2 will get rid of those infected _restore files in your last Kapersky log.

STEP 1.( Windows XP only)
======
Prefetch Folder
Open C:\Windows\Prefetch\
Delete All files in this folder but not the Prefetch folder

STEP 2.
======
System Restore for Windows XP
Reset and Re-enable your System Restore to remove infected files that have been backed up by Windows. The files in System Restore are protected to prevent any programs changing those files. This is the only way to clean these files: (You will lose all previous restore points which are likely to be infected)
  • Turn off System Restore.
  • On the Desktop, right-click My Computer.
  • Click Properties.
  • Click the System Restore tab.
  • Check Turn off System Restore.
  • Click Apply, and then click OK.
Reboot.

Turn ON System Restore.
  • On the Desktop, right-click My Computer.
  • Click Properties.
  • Click the System Restore tab.
  • UN-Check *Turn off System Restore*.
  • Click Apply, and then click OK.
STEP 3.
======
DON’T BECOME OVERCONFIDENT WITH ANTIVIRUS APPLICATIONS INSTALLED!!!

http://forum.malwareremoval.com/viewtopic….39eba6ea0b5e8ee

Stay up to date on security patches and be extremely wary of clicking on links and attachments that arrive unbidden in instant messages and e-mail.

"The number one thing the majority of the malicious code we're seeing now does is disable or delete anti-virus and other security software," Dunham said. "In a lot of cases, once the user clicks on that attachment, it's already too late."


Now that you are clean, please follow these simple steps in order to keep your computer clean and secure:
  • Update your AntiVirus Software - It is imperative that you update your Antivirus software at least once a week (Even more if you wish). If you do not update your antivirus software then it will not be able to catch any of the new variants that may come out.

  • Use a Firewall - I can not stress how important it is that you use a Firewall on your computer. Without a firewall your computer is susceptible to being hacked and taken over. Simply using a Firewall in its default configuration can lower your risk greatly.
    For a tutorial on Firewalls and a listing of some available ones see the link below:
    Understanding and Using Firewalls

  • Test your Firewall - Please test your firewall and make sure it is working properly.
    Test Firewall

  • Visit Microsoft's Update Site Frequently - It is important that you visit Windows Updates regularly. This will ensure your computer has always the latest security updates available installed on your computer. If there are new updates to install, install them immediately, reboot your computer, and revisit the site until there are no more critical updates.

  • Install Spybot - Search and Destroy - Install and download Spybot - Search and Destroy with its TeaTimer option. This will provide realtime spyware & hijacker protection on your computer alongside your virus protection. You should also scan your computer with program on a regular basis just as you would an antivirus software.
    A tutorial on installing & using this product can be found here:
    Using Spybot - Search & Destroy to remove Spyware , Malware, and Hijackers

  • Install Ad-Aware - Install and download Ad-Aware. ou should also scan your computer with program on a regular basis just as you would an antivirus software in conjunction with Spybot.
    A tutorial on installing & using this product can be found here:
    Using Ad-aware to remove Spyware, Malware, & Hijackers from Your Computer

  • Install SpywareBlaster - SpywareBlaster will added a large list of programs and sites into your Internet Explorer settings that will protect you from running and downloading known malicious programs.
    A tutorial on installing & using this product can be found here:
    Using SpywareBlaster to protect your computer from Spyware and Malware

  • Update your Java to the latest version. Uninstall any and all versions you have listed in add/remove programs and install the latest version from here:
    Java Software Java Runtime Environment Version 5.0 Update 7
    http://www.java.com/en/download/manual.jsp
  • Update all these programs regularly - Make sure you update all the programs I have listed regularly. Without regular updates you WILL NOT be protected when new malicious programs are released.

  • More info on how to prevent malware you can also find here (By Tony Klein)
Follow this list and your potential for being infected again will reduce dramatically.

Thank you for allowing me to assist you.
