[Resolved] Start up programes show Bad Image warning

Hi,

For 2 weeks now I have been plagued by malaware that I can't remove. On staring my Win XP PC, I get several messages relating to my start up programmes (iTunes etc.), saying that the specific exe file is a "Bad Image" with the following conclusion:

DLL C:\WINDOWS\system32\mswsock.dll is not a valid Windows image

This seemed to be triggered by a Windows update (but that may just be coincidence).

I'm running MS OneCare antivirus, which will not start, and I have no internet access. Some other programmes won't start either.

I have tried several system restores which work untill rebooted and I am back to square one. Spybot Search and Destroy, and Adaware haven't helped.

Please find my Hijack This & Malwarebytes logs below:

Welcome to the Forums.

The fixes we will use are specific to your problems and should only be used for this issue on this machine.

Please only use this topic to reply to. Do not start another thread.
If any other issues arise let me know.
The process is not instant. Please continue to review my answers until I tell you your machine is clear. Absence of symptoms does not mean that everything is clear. So lets do this to the end!

• Save and quit any work your doing before beginning the fix.
• All hijackthis logs I ask for should be done in normal mode ( not safe mode)
• These logs should be done last after you have followed my instructions in the previous post.
• Do the best you can to follow my instructions in the order given

Please if you decide to seek help at another forum let us know. There is a shortage of helpers and tying 2 of us up is a waste of time.
If you have any questions about any advice given here please STOP and ask!

Ewido security suite is outdated by a while now.
It has been taken over by AVG anti malware.
I suggest going into add/remove programs and uninstalling it.

I would like you to install in it's place .

You do have Malwarebytes anti Malware installed. This is an excellent replacement for Ewido.

mswsock.dll error…

On my WIndows XP Pro system, I found a second 'backup' copy of this dll in the C:\Windows\ServicePackFiles\i386 folder.
The bad copy should be in the C:\Windows\System32 folder

. So simply rename the file in System32 to mswsock.dll.old , so it will remain in the folder but not operate.
Then copy the mswsock.dll from the i386 folder mentioned above to the C:/windows/System32 folder.
I will explain how to do this if you need help doing this.

Here's what I want you to do carefully.
Navigate to c:/windows/system32/mswsock.dll..
Right click that file and choose rename.
Rename it to mswsock.dll.old

Now navigate to
C:\Windows\ServicePackFiles\i386 folder\mswsock.dll

Right click that file and choose copy.

Now go back to the system32 folder and right click in a blank area and choose paste.

Let me know how that went

In your next reply I would like to see:

• The report from Deckards system scanner
• The report from FixIEDef

Hello bob4,

Thanks for the reply. It's great to have someone on my side.

I have completed the tasks you have set with the following results.

HJT - Neither of those lines where there!

Replacing mswsock.dll file - (after a couple of reboots)This has stopped the "Bad Image" warning pop ups, but I still don't have internet connection or antivirus, and the startup programmes are notably slower.

One other issue I have been having since I first posted, is a blue screen error when booting up. After a hard reset the PC boots up Ok, but I have attached an image of the error for your reference.

_________________________________
Click start > Run > in the empty edit box copy&paste this line :

Read the disclaimer and click OK.

• Click on the Scan button.
• Place a checkmark next to the following entries in case they appear:

.bat
.cmd
.inf
.ini
.reg
.txt
.vbs

• Click the Fix button.
• Re-scan and save a logfile. By default, it will save as daft.txt
• I'll need that log later.

If everything is ok again, it should display the "all associations ok message"

Post back with the contents of daft.txt.

Close that.










______________________________


Ok now lets try getting your internet back up.



I don't know what you've tried so far but let's start at the begining.
If any of these works along the way stop there.

Right click my computer and choose:

properties/hardware\device manager /

Look under network adaptors/modems depending on your connection.
double click that connection and make sure it says it's working.
If theres a yellow exclamation point by either of them the drivers may need replacing..
Let me know.


___________________________________

open control panel /network connections.
Right click the connection you use and choose repair.

Let me know .


_____________________________
downloadWinsockfix from here

http://www.softpedia.com/get/Tweak/Network…inSockFix.shtml

Close every other program, then open winsockxpfix and click reg backup. Save the reg backup somewhere.

Once that is done, click the fix button of winsockxpfix


Tell me if this helps.


________________________________

If all else fails :

Please download this network troubleshooting tool from

http://castlecops.com/downloads-file-472.html

Then you need to extract the file, and double click on the mynetwork.exe file.
A black dos box will open up. Do not close this. Type in 'n' if it asks you if you want to include the dns cache.
Click 'y' if it asks if you want to open this with notepad. A notepad window should now open. Paste the contents of the notepad file here.

_________________________
In your next reply I would like to see:

• A new HJT log
• Network troubleshooting tool if you had to use it.
• If we still do not have internet connection what was the last thing you did just before you lost connection?
• Post back with the contents of daft.txt.

Ok, so here we go….

HJT - All three items fixed.

Daft - Didn't get the all associations OK message (see log below)

I am using a wireless connection to a ADSL modem router. The offending PC has both a USB device and a PCi wireless card (USB is a stronger signal). Both will show as connected when he machine is rebooted, but when I choose to repair them I get the error "The following action cannot be completed - Connection to the wireless network".

I am connected to the same router with the laptop I'm using to make this post.

Winsockfix didn't have any impact on the problem.

I'm not sure that the "My Network Info" scan worked (see log below)

The PC was working fine until I let MS OneCare perform a windows update! I questioned this with the OneCare Support, but they only suggested that I look at their forum. I couldn't find anything relating to this specific error message that worked for me.

My Network Info


Windows IP Configuration

An internal error occurred: The request is not supported.



Please contact Microsoft Product Support Services for further help.

Hello again Hoffer,
Have you tried a wired connection to this computer to rule out a wireless problem with either the router of the computer itself ?
Certainly worth a try.
At this point I want to clean up what we have done and I will send you to another forum here where someone much better at networking will help you. Please mention this thread and that we cleared you of malware. The link will be on the bottom of this thread.



Great news ! [external image: Posted Image]

Your log now appears to be clean.

Lets do a few things to tidy up.
Please do these in the order I suggest!


___________________________________
Delete the follwing files.

Iedfix.exe

Dekards system scanner.

• Reset Temp File Removal for Regular Use.
  
Click on the Options block on the left. Select the Advanced button.
Check "Only delete files in Windows Temp folders older than 48 hours".


Now run the program and click on Run Cleaner
( Do not use the Registry function to clean anything with this program. Having anything auto clean your regisrty is risky).

Right click My Computer
Then Propeties then system restore
Place a check mark by turn off system restore
Click APPLY
Windows will give you a warning click yes
REBOOT

Now go right back to the same place and unchecksystem restore

You can download the MVPS Hosts File and see a HOSTS file tutorial here :
This website also contains useful tips, and links to other resources and utilities.
