Hi everyone,

I have today been bothered with a whole lot of pop ups by my Avira Antivir Guard telling me about various malware infections - at some point I was being taken to some Vista Antivir 2008 website (I didn't click on any of the various "system" messages as they looked fishy to me as it were) and tried to fix the problem by downloading and installing Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware (strangely enough I have to cancel some scan for CDBurnerXP during the start-up of the program or it will tell me that it can't find some needed data) as well as running SDFix (version 1.230) in safe mode and then rebooting the machine. Both to no avail.

The endless list of malware programs that has been found so far:
TR/Trash.Gen
TR/Killav.28714
TR/Drop.Softomat.AN
TR/Agent.8704.76
TR/Crypt.XPACK.Gen

Since a flatmate has access to my PC I am not sure whether he surfed or downloaded something bad or whether I simply opened a bad file somewhere. (On a side note: if I open a user account without admin rights on my XP system, can my flatmates actions cause harm to my account and the data that I rely on for my work?)

I have just run a quick scan with Malwarebytes' software after another SDFix attempt and will post the result beneath.

First I will post the SDFix log, after that the Malwarebyte log and finally the HijackThis log file - the programs were executed in that order. I would be very much obliged if you could help me clean my system without me having to reinstall everything (which is especially painful with the RAID system that is not recognised by the WinXP system CD…).

———————————————————————————–

I am sorry to bother you with such a mess, usually I am able to find my way through the help forums in the internet to solve my issues but this heavy malware infection left me clueless… I do hope one of you will be able to figure out what I can do to resolve this. In any case I am very grateful for the effort you took in coming this far ;)

Thank you in advance,
Des


———————————————————————————–

Edit: I just realised that the Malwarebyte log is in German - if needed I will try and get an English version of it. I am not sure whether it is vital for solving the problem. Just let me know and I will reinstall the program in English (which I usually do anyway, not sure I had an option there…).
Hi, and Welcome to WhatTheTech :)

My name is jpshortstuff. I would be glad to take a look at your log and help you with solving any malware problems. HijackThis logs can take a while to research, so please be patient and I'd be grateful if you would note the following:
  • I will be working on your Malware issues, this may or may not, solve other issues you have with your machine.
  • The fixes are specific to your problem and should only be used for the issues on this machine.
  • Please continue to review my answers until I tell you your machine appears to be clear. Absence of symptoms does not mean that everything is clear.
  • It's often worth reading through these instructions and printing them for ease of reference.
  • If you don't know or understand something, please don't hesitate to say or ask!! It's better to be sure and safe than sorry.
  • Please reply to this thread. Do not start a new topic.
Sorry about the delay in responding :(

If you still need help:

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.


Scan again with HijackThis, and "copy/paste" a new log file into this thread.

Then I will analyze your log and sort out a fix for you :)

I need to see another log from HijackThis.
  • Run Hijackthis.
  • Click on Open the Misc Tools section.
  • Next click on Open uninstall manager.
  • Press the Save list button.
  • Save the file to your desktop, with the default name of uninstall_list
  • Copy & Paste the entire contents of that file in your in your next post.
Also please describe how your computer behaves at the moment.

Thanks.
First of all, thank you for your response, jpshortstuff, very much appreciated. I did as you requested and will post the uninstall_list content straight away: Adobe Bridge 1.0 Adobe Common File Installer Adobe Creative Suite 2 Adobe Flash Player ActiveX Adobe Flash Player Plugin Adobe Help Center 1.0 Adobe Shockwave Player Adobe Stock Photos 1.0 Adobe SVG Viewer 3.0 AGEIA PhysX v6.12.02 AMD CPUInfo AMD Power Monitor AsusUpdate Avira AntiVir Personal - Free Antivirus BaboViolent 2.11 Battlefield 2™ Battlefield 2: Special Forces Broken Crescent CCleaner (remove only) CDBurnerXP Pro 3 CDDRV_Installer DAEMON Tools Toolbar Discworld II DivX Content Uploader DivX Web Player Drakensang Dual-Core Optimizer DVD Shrink 3.2 EA SPORTS™ NBA LIVE 08 Fenimore Fillmore's Revenge FileZilla (remove only) FileZilla Server (remove only) Football Manager 2008 Fourelle Venturi Personal Client 2.1.1 Geheimakte 2 - Puritas Cordis GetDataBack for NTFS GPRO Organiser Hard to be a God HijackThis 2.0.2 Hotfix für Windows XP (KB952287) Impulse Impulse J2SE Runtime Environment 5.0 Update 11 Java™ 6 Update 2 Java™ 6 Update 7 KhalSetup King's Bounty.

But the one thing I noticed while typing this post was that I had 3 freezes lasting for 10-20 seconds each (I could type in the background and the text would show up once the freeze was over). These freezes occured in a time span of approx. 2 minutes and since then nothing. I also realised that yesterday when I had to finish a project - sometimes it simply freezes for quite a long time and then I can go on for an hour with no noticeable slow-down or freeze at all. Thanks again for your efforts, I hope we will be able to get the PC fixed - otherwise I will have to format and reinstall… well, here is hope. :)
Hi :)

You have the DAEMON Tools Toolbar installed on your computer. This is an Adware toolbar that is bundled with the DAEMON tools programs, and is often installed without the user's permission. For more information, see here:
http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/uninstall/…emon-Tools.html
http://www.systemlookup.com/lists.php?list…9A-4E364A424E17

You can uninstall this program by clicking Start >> Control Panel >> Add/Remove Programs.

Remove Poker programs
From your log I can see you've installed poker programs. A lot of poker programs are infected/can infect you with malware.
I would advise you to go to Add/Remove programs and uninstall your poker programs, namely these ones:
Pokerkings

Here are links to some poker sites regarded as safe for your reference.
1. http://www.pokerstars.net/ - This is a free to use/play site with play money.
2. http://www.pokerstars.com/ - This is a free to use/play site with play money and real money.

You can also uninstall these two Add/Remove entries:
J2SE Runtime Environment 5.0 Update 11
Java™ 6 Update 2

As they are outdated and are not required (you have the latest version installed already).


I need a fresh HijackThis log as a lot can change in 5 days. Please start HijackThis, and then click Do A System Scan and Save A Logfile, posting the log in your next reply. Then we can begin the cleaning process.

Thanks.
I uninstalled Daemon Tools Toolbar, PokerKings, J2SE Runtime Environment 5.0 Update 11 and Java™ 6 Update 2 (the reason for the Poker programs is my side job as an affiliate - but since we currently do not promote PokerKings I gladly uninstalled their client ;) ). Daemon Tools is still installed but as I understood the Toolbar is the problem rather (and I definitely do not remember allowing a toolbar to be installed as I generally decline such requests). I will copy&paste the new content of HJT's uninstall_list.txt file (just in case) and the HTJ log of the system scan underneath.

Again, thanks for your effort!!
Hi :)

Apolgies, I missed this in your uninstall list:
PKR
It appears to be another Poker program. Same recommendations as above. Is this the same as:
C:\Poker\Titan Poker\casino.exe << or is this another program altogether?


Ok, lets get going.

Open HijackThis. Hit Do A System Scan Only. Place a check next to the following items (if present):
O21 - SSODL: onfwbsak - {31597EA0-A0E3-4B8A-B80C-735CADB2776B} - (no file)
O21 - SSODL: rwlfsdmk - {29E4ACCE-2097-4DE7-A063-38AD23B30942} - (no file)


Close all browsers and windows except for HijackThis and click Fix Checked.

Please reboot your computer.


Now, please update MalwareBytes' AntiMalware and run the program again. If it finds anything, please post the log here (after fixing what it finds). If not, please let me know (no need to post the log).

Please go to Kaspersky website and perform an online antivirus scan.
  • Read through the requirements and privacy statement and click on Accept button.

Indeed, PKR is another poker program. As for the casino.exe by Titan Poker… I am actually dazzled to that being there. Will remove both of them. Unfortunately I will have to leave for a meeting now, but I will continue according to your advice as soon as I return. Thank you very much for your efforts!!! :notworthy:
Ok, thanks for letting me know. I may well be gone by the time you come out of your meeting, but I will reply as soon as I have the chance. Cheers.
I have removed PKR (although it is a trusted program - but for the sake of cleaning my PC and finding the root of all evil I will gladly remove this and other programs). I tried to find the Titan Poker utility and un-install it but it doesn't appear anywhere in my regular software list. Should I simply delete the casino.exe or check the entry in the HJT scan and choose "Fix Checked"? For the time being I did neither in order not to mess up any of your plans ;) The Kaspersky scan is still running (and has been for one and a half hour now) - I will get back to you tomorrow (local time here currently 8:23 p.m.) and let you know the results of the scan as well as post a new HJT file. It feels great to actually be doing something against the malware infection, thank you again for everything done already! Another update on my PC's behaviour: my Avira AntiVir Guard pops up every now and then (from the top of my head I would say no periodic intervals and not relevant to any programs running) and tells me of some "TR/…" (see in my very first post - but I think there was actually another TR/… found the last time, I wrote it down but can't find the note anymore) found on my PC. I always choose "Deny Access" as the unsual "Delete File" didn't really show any different results. I didn't notice any freezes for some hours now.
I'll look into the Titan Poker and let you know. Did MalwareBytes find anything, by the way? Yeah, Kaspersky does sometimes take a while, sorry about that. Tomorrow is fine with me, I should have plenty of time to look your logs over and research everything. Cheers.
Whooops, I was surprised by your quick response and completely overlooked it. Sorry! Malwarebytes found those entries: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\ShellServiceObjectDelayLoad\onfwbsak (Trojan.FakeAlert) -> Quarantined and deleted successfully. HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\ShellServiceObjectDelayLoad\rwlfsdmk (Trojan.FakeAlert) -> Quarantined and deleted successfully. As you can see they were back when I made the HJT scan. Out of curiosity I made the HJT scan, then ticked the two entries that you stated, then did the scan again BEFORE rebooting - and sure enough they were there again despite HJT claiming they were removed. Same when I did it again. So I did it a third time and then simply rebooted the PC as you wanted me to before running Kaspersky (which is btw. still running ;) ). I am curious to whether the entries will show up again. So far the Kaspersky scan has found "2 threat names" and "2 infected objects". I can't wait to see the finished scan (I hope it will be finished tomorrow in the morning). As for the Titan Poker casino.exe file… Titan Poker is a renowned online poker room who also offers casino to his players. However I never have played in an online casino (I asked my flat mate, neither has he) so the file must simply have been downloaded/installed as a package of the poker room software (which I actually despise as I want to know what is being installed on my PC - and I definitely would never have agreed on a casino application as a matter of principle). Just for your information. More info to follow tomorrow - if anything unexpected happens in the meantime I will keep you updated. Thank you again and I hope I don't take up too much of your time!!
Hmm, we may have to be more forceful on those entries if they persist.

I hope I don't take up too much of your time!!

Not at all :)

See you tomorrow :thumbup:
Well, here goes nothing:

And there they are again… hmm… seems that the mentioned force has to be applied :P

As for the UltraVNC that is pointed out in the Kaspersky log, I installed that and use it occasionally to access my PC. It is password protected. If you feel it is a real security threat I will of course get rid of it but at the same time ask for a possible replacement as it is vital for me to be able to access my PC and the project data stored on it when abroad using my notebook.

The Tropix 2.exe stunned me at first until I realised I should ask my flatmate. Indeed it seems to be a shareware game (no idea, haven't played it myself) that he downloaded using utorrent. According to him he downloaded it a month or two ago though - and the problems only started less than a week ago. Could of course be a timer, what do I know. Just wanted to give you as much information as possible.

Alright, I will get some sleep now and await your orders and advice tomorrow. Thanks for your time!
Short update on my PC's behaviour: I had another "3 freeze attack" this morning where the same symptoms applied: long freezes (between 15-20 seconds and three times in a row with only short breaks inbetween). Just thought I would let you know in case it helps define a problem or for future reference when someone has the same symptoms. Yesterday this happened in the afternoon so I am not sure what initiates it. Will try to monitor my PC as closely as possible (but will have another meeting this afternoon).
Hi there :)

Just a quick Q before we apply the mentioned 'force':
Is there anything in:
C:\Poker\ or
C:\Poker\Titan Poker
Other than the Titan Poker program, and is any of anything that you would want to keep?

Preparing force now ;)

Thanks.
