Post #1
Hello guys,

For the last week I have been experiencing problems to remove what was initially identified as a virtumonde infection by the Spybot and Destroy. I have disabled the system restore and scanned numerous times with Vundofix and S & D both in normal and safe modes.
there was always something left back and my AVG residential shield kept popping the threat 'Virus found Lop'. After few scans today I don't have any more popups from the AVG. But I would like to ask an expert if my system is definitely clean before I re-enable system restore. I also would like to ask how can I make sure I run the best Java platform, cause I was advised that Java may pose a serious vulnerability to my system. I really appreciate your help. The HJT log follows:

tetzeris,

Welcome to the forum, sorry for the delay. You still have bits and pieces of the infection present, this is what you need to do.



Disable the TeaTimer, you can re enable it when were done if you wish
  • Run Spybot-S&D in Advanced Mode.
  • If it is not already set to do this Go to the Mode menu select "Advanced Mode"
  • On the left hand side, Click on Tools
  • Then click on the Resident Icon in the List
  • Uncheck "Resident TeaTimer" and OK any prompts.
  • Restart your computer.



You need to uninstall this program via the Add Remove Programs, you can read about it here

Hi ken545,
thank you for your time

I have done as instructed with netmeter and SuperAntispyware.
Unfortunately I cannot run Combofix from my desktop… I can't do this neither with Vundofix, actually I wasn't able to run even the SAS setup from desktop, I had to run it straight from the download place… seems like there is a problem with my desktop at the moment.
I wonder if I should try 'n save Combofix in a different location and try run it from there or run the application straight from your download link…
anyway I provide you with the SAS log and HJT log :

Hi,

Your TeaTimer is still enabled and can prevent the fixes from working



Disable the TeaTimer, you can re enable it when were done if you wish
  • Run Spybot-S&D in Advanced Mode.
  • If it is not already set to do this Go to the Mode menu select "Advanced Mode"
  • On the left hand side, Click on Tools
  • Then click on the Resident Icon in the List
  • Uncheck "Resident TeaTimer" and OK any prompts.
  • Restart your computer.


Remove these with HJT.

It looks like you may have gotten a bad Combofix download, ,drag it to the trash and download a fresh copy and do it this way, IT HAS TO BE RUN FROM THE DESKTOP

Download ComboFix from Here or Here to your Desktop.

In the event you already have Combofix, this is a new version that I need you to download.
It must be saved directly to your desktop.


1. Close/disable all anti virus and anti malware programs so they do not interfere with the running of ComboFix.

  • Temporarily disable your anti-virus, script blocking and any anti-malware real-time protection before performing a scan.
  • Click on this link to see a list of programs that should be disabled. The list is not all inclusive. If yours is not listed and you don't know how to disable it, please ask.
  • Remember to re enable the protection again afterwards before connecting to the net


2. Close any open browsers and make sure you are disconnected from the net. Unplug the cable if need be before running combofix.
  • IF you have not already done so Combofix will disconnect your machine from the Internet when it starts.
  • If there is no internet connection when Combofix has completely finished then restart your computer to restore back the connections.

3. Now double click on combofix.exe & follow the prompts.
When finished, it will produce a report for you.
Please post the "C:\ComboFix.txt" along with a new HijackThis log for further review

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


If you still cant get Combofix to run, try running it in Safemode.

To Enter Safemode
  • Go to Start> Shut off 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
Tutorial if you need it How to boot into Safemode



Post the Combofix log and a new HJT log please

Good Morning, Your HJT log looks fine :thumbup: The only thing I am concerned with is SweetIM, it falls somewhat in the gray area, its not a malicious program but some people have been getting infected with some links there sent. If you don't use it than uninstall it via the Add Remove Programs in the Control Panel. How are things running now??
Post #7
ok I removed SweetIM, I thought so myself to be honest I have no symptoms soever , running smoothly thanks Now the one million question: Which of all those anti-everything programs should I keep? I have so many I feel like I work for the Pentagon. Any advice welcomed…
Post #8
Hi,

Glad things are well :thumbup:

You can keep SAS, its a good free program to run once in awhile to keep you on top of things. You can also keep HJT , hopefully you won't need it again but its there if you do.

  • Click START then RUN
  • Now type Combofix /u in the runbox and click OK. Note the space between the X and the U, it needs to be there.


    • [external image: Posted Image]

  • When shown the disclaimer, Select "2"

The above procedure will:
  • Delete the following:
    • ComboFix and its associated files and folders.
    • VundoFix backups, if present
    • The C:\Deckard folder, if present
    • The C:_OtMoveIt folder, if present
  • Reset the clock settings.
  • Hide file extensions, if required.
  • Hide System/Hidden files, if required.
  • Reset System Restore.



  • Your Java is out of date and leaving your system vulnerable.
  • Go to your Add-Remove Programs in the Control Panel and uninstall any previous versions of Java (J2SE Runtime Environment)
  • It should have an icon next to it:
    [external image: Posted Image]
    Select it and click Remove.
  • Reboot your system.
  • Then go to the Sun Microsystems and install the update
  • Java Runtime Environment (JRE) 6 Update 4 <–This is what you need to download and install.
  • If you chose the online installation, it will prompt you to run the program.
  • If you chose the offline installation, you will be prompted to save the file and you can run it from wherever you saved it.
  • Then after install you can verify your installation here Sun Java Verify
I like to to do the offline installation and save the setup file in case I may need it in the future




Malware Complaints
Are you mad ? I mean really mad, seething mad, so mad your ready to spit, mad that you have taken your hard earned dollars to buy a computer only to have some Miscredents, Dirt Bags and Cyber Criminals install a malicious program on your computer without your knowledge or consent. You can post your complaint at the above site. If you live in the U.S.A. you can also report your grievance to your State Attorney Generals Office and the Federal Trade Commission's Bureau of Consumer Protection.


  • How did I get infected in the first place ? Read these links and find out how to prevent getting infected again.
  • Tutorial for System Restore <– Do this first to prevent yourself from being reinfected.
  • WhattheTech
  • TonyKlein CastleCops
  • Grinler BleepingComputer
  • GeeksTo Go
  • Dslreports

Keep in mind if you install some of these programs. Only ONE Anti Virus and only ONE Firewall is recommended, more is overkill and can cause you problems. You can install all the Spyware programs I have listed without any problems. If you install Spyware Blaster, you can still install Spybot Search and Destroy but do not enable the TeaTimer in Spybot.


Here are some free programs to install, all free and highly regarded by the fine people in the Malware Removal Community
  • Spybot Search and Destroy 1.5
    Check for Updates/ Immunize and run a Full System Scan on a regular basis. If you install Spyware Blaster ( Recommended ) then do not enable the TeaTimer in Spybot Search and Destroy.
  • Spyware Blaster It will prevent most spyware from ever being installed. No scan to run, just update about once a week and enable all protection.
  • Spyware Guard It offers realtime protection from spyware installation attempts, again, no scan to run, just install it and let it do its thing.
  • IE-Spyad
    IE-Spyad places over 6000 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 2.0.0.12 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.

Glad we could help
