Hi

First of all, please rename C:\Program Files\Trend Micro\HijackThis\HijackThis.exe to scanner.exe.


Please download ATF Cleaner by Atribune.
Download - ATF Cleaner»
Double-click ATF-Cleaner.exe to run the program.
Under Main choose: Select All
Click the Empty Selected button.

(If you use FireFox or the Opera browser
To keep saved passwords, click No at the prompt.)

It's normal after running ATF cleaner that the PC will be slower to boot the first time or two.



Download ComboFix by sUBs from here or here

**Save it to your desktop**

Double click on ComboFix.exe & follow the prompts.
When finished, it shall produce a log for you. Please save that log to post in your next reply along with a fresh HJT log

Note:
Do not mouseclick combofix's window whilst it's running. That may cause it to stall

Thanks,

jpshortstuff

Hi

LimeWire
You have LimeWire, a P2P/file sharing programs installed on your computer. P2P applications like it are the largest source of malware we see. You'll be doing yourself a favor by removing it.

References for the risk of these programs can be found in these links:
http://www.microsoft.com/windows/ie/commun…protection.mspx
http://www.techweb.com/wire/160500554
http://www.internetworldstats.com/articles/art053.htm
See Clean/Infected P2P Programs here

I would recommend that you uninstall LimeWire, however that choice is up to you. If you choose to remove these programs, y
u can do so via Control Panel >> Add or Remove Programs.

If you wish to keep it, please do not use it until your computer is cleaned.



1. Please open Notepad
  • Click Start , then Run
  • Type notepad.exe in the Run Box.
2. Now copy/paste the entire content of the codebox below into the Notepad window:

File::
C:\WINDOWS\system32\meythlsp.ini
C:\WINDOWS\uninst.exe

RenV::
C:\Program Files\Trend Micro\Internet Security 2007\pccguide .exe
C:\Program Files\Trend Micro\Internet Security 2007\TMAS_OE\TMAS_OEMon .exe
C:\WINDOWS\system32\ctfmon .exe

Registry::
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run]
"QdrModule12"=-

3. Save the above as CFScript.txt

4. Then drag the CFScript.txt into ComboFix.exe as depicted in the animation below. This will start ComboFix again.

5. After reboot, (in case it asks to reboot), please post the following reports/logs into your next reply:
  • Combofix.txt
  • A new HijackThis log.


I regret to inform you that several of your programs appear to have components which have been infected by this latest strain of the Vundo Trojan. This may result in the need to reinstall any programs that you wish to keep, and subsequently uninstall any of the remaining programs that you do not wish to keep. After your next reply, I will provide you with a list of the infected programs, and you can then decide what you want to do with them.


Please do an online scan with Kaspersky WebScanner

Follow this link in Internet Explorer (Note: You must use Internet explorer to use Kaspersky): Kaspersky WebScanner

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 sure that the following are selected:
    o Scan using the following Anti-Virus database:
    Extended (if available otherwise Standard)
    o Scan Options:
    Scan Archives Scan Mail Bases
  • Click OK
  • Now under select a target to scan:
    Select My Computer
  • The 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.
    o Now click on the Save as Text button:
  • Save the file to your desktop.

Please post the results of the Kaspersky scan in your next reply, along with a fresh HijackThis log.

Please also describe how the computer is running now.

Thanks,
