Help- Can't kill virus

Hi All,

Have AVG installed and regularly updating but keep getting a message telling me that I have a virus.

I have tried using the option of Heal and also Move To Vault, to no avail.

Below is my current HIJACK THIS log… Please can someone help??

Thanks!

THANK YOU!!!

Welcome to the forum

Please download ATF Cleaner by Atribune.
Download - ATF Cleaner»
This program is for XP and Windows 2000 only

Don't run it yet.

We need to disable your Microsoft AntiSpyware Real-time Protection as it may interfere with the fixes that we need to make.

Open Microsoft AntiSpyware.
Click on Options, Settings.
In the left pane, click on Real-time Protection.
Under Startup Options uncheck Enable the Microsoft AntiSpyware Security Agents on startup (recommended).
Under Real-time spyware threat protection uncheck Enable real-time spyware threat protection (recommended).
After you uncheck these, click on the Save button and close Microsoft AntiSpyware.
Right click on the Microsoft AntiSpyware icon on the taskbar and select Shutdown Microsoft AntiSpyware.

After all of the fixes are complete it is very important that you enable Real-time Protection again.

CLOSE ALL WINDOWS (even this one) AND PROGRAMS!!!!

Run Hijack This!
Click "Do a systen scan only".
Then "check" the box to the left of these item(s):

O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [.nvsvc] C:\WINDOWS\system\smss.exe /w

O23 - Service: Windows Log - Unknown owner - C:\WINDOWS\system32\nvsvcd.exe

Then click "Fix checked" and close Hijack This!.

Now, please go to:

Start –> Run

In the box type in services.msc then hit < Enter > (or click OK)

In the Name column look for:

Windows Log

< Double-click > it.

In the dialogue box that pops up, check in the Path to executable box.

It should say: C:\WINDOWS\system32\nvsvcd.exe

That's how to be sure you have the right one.

Now, click Stop to stop that rogue process.

In the Startup type box, change it to Disabled.

Click Apply then OK

Close the services.msc window.

Reboot in "safe" mode.

Double-click ATF-Cleaner.exe to run the program.
Under Main choose: Select All.
Click the Empty Selected button.
Close the program.

Delete all of the following noted (in red) file(s)/FOLDER(s) you can find:

c:\windows\system32\nvsvcd.exe <— file

c:\windows\system\smss.exe <— file
(DELETE THIS ONE IN THIS FOLDER ONLY!!!!)

The smss.exe in the system32 folder is the "real" one. LEAVE IT ALONE.

Some malware files may be "hidden".
Be sure to show hidden files when looking for these file(s) and/or folder(s).

Reboot in normal mode and "copy/paste" a new HijackThis! log file into this thread.
