Anyone want a challenge? I need help!

I don't mind taking on a challenge, I have a fix prepared already, but I need to draw something to your attention. Would you rather me or JonTom @ PCPitstop assist you?

 

Before we continue I would like for you to use MSConfig to put this machine back into normal start up mode

Teatimer is running and it is going to interfere with my fix:

How to disable Spybot's TeaTimer

Please disable all anti-virus and anti-spyware programs while we do the following (re-enable when you are finished):

Run C:\MGtools\analyse.exe by double clicking on it (Note: if using Vista, don't double click, use right click and select Run As Administrator). This is really HijackThis (select Do a system scan only) and select the following lines but DO NOT CLICK FIX until you exit all browser sessions including the one you are reading in right now:

• O2 - BHO: (no name) - {02478D38-C3F9-4efb-9B51-7695ECA05670} - (no file)
• O2 - BHO: (no name) - {5C255C8A-E604-49b4-9D64-90988571CECB} - (no file)

• O2 - BHO: (no name) - {FDAD4DA1-61A2-4FD8-9C17-86F7AC245081} - (no file)
• O16 - DPF: {8AD9C840-044E-11D1-B3E9-00805F499D93} -
• O16 - DPF: {CAFEEFAC-0016-0000-0002-ABCDEFFEDCBA} -
• O16 - DPF: {CAFEEFAC-0016-0000-0017-ABCDEFFEDCBA} -
• O16 - DPF: {CAFEEFAC-FFFF-FFFF-FFFF-ABCDEFFEDCBA} -

After clicking Fix exit HJT.

Now we need to use ComboFix (Make SURE you let it run to completion without any mouse clicking or keyboard touching.

• Make sure that combofix.exe that you downloaded while doing the READ & RUN ME is on your Desktop but Do not run it!
  • If it is not on your Desktop, the below will not work.
• Also make sure you have shut down all protection software (antivirus, antispyware...etc) or they may get in the way of allowing ComboFix to run properly.
• If ComboFix tells you it needs to update to a new version, make sure you allow it to update.
• Open Notepad and copy/paste the text in the below quote box. Ensure you scroll down to select ALL the lines:

Code:

• Save the above as CFscript.txt and make sure you save it to the same location (should be on your Desktop) as ComboFix.exe
• At this point, you MUST EXIT ALL BROWSERS NOW before continuing!
• You should have both the ComboFix.exe and CFScript.txt icons on your Desktop.
• Now use your mouse to drag CFscript.txt on top of ComboFix.exe
  
  
  
  
• Follow the prompts.
• When it finishes, a log will be produced named c:\combofix.txt
• I will ask for this log below

Note:

Do not mouseclick combofix's window while it is running. That may cause it to stall.

Now rescan with Malware Bytes, fix anything it may find and attach the log regardless of it's findings.

Run CCleaner!

Run the C:\MGtools\GetLogs.bat file by double clicking on it. Then attach the new C:\MGlogs.zip file that will be created by running this. Don't forget the new MBAM log.

Let me know how things are running for you!

 

Yes, just carry on for now, just try and remember to have a go again at being in normal start up before you run the getlogs.bat.

Oh.. and out of courtesy, tell JonTom that you are receiving help elsewhere so that you are not wasting any of his time and resources.

 

Good. Then please attach the logs whever you are ready.

:-D Yes, combofix will wipe those suckers out I expect.

 

When I give you final steps, there will be a link to "How to protect yourself from malware" which you should take a look at.

So, tell me now, as I review the logs, how things are running for you now.

 

Well the logs reflect that all is good.

Now Copy the bold text below to notepad. Save it as fixME.reg to your desktop. Be sure the "Save as" type is set to "all files" Once you have saved it double click it and allow it to merge with the registry.

Make sure that you tell me if you receive a success message about adding the above
to the registry. If you do not get a success message, it definitely did not work.

Use windws explorer to locate and delete the below bold file:

• C:\Windows\system32\LogConfigTemp.xml

If you are not having any other malware problems, it is time to do our final steps:

1. We recommend you keep SUPERAntiSpyware and Malwarebytes Anti-Malware for scanning/removal of malware. Unless you purchase them, they provide no protection. They do not use any significant amount of resources ( except a little disk space ) until you run a scan.
2. If we had you use ComboFix, uninstall ComboFix (This uninstall will only work as written if you installed ComboFix on your Desktop like we requested.)
   • Click START then RUN and enter the below into the run box and then click OK. Note the quotes are required
   • "%userprofile%\Desktop\combofix" /uninstall
     • Notes: The space between the combofix" and the /uninstall, it must be there.
     • This will uninstall ComboFix and also reset hidden files and folders settings back to Windows defaults.
3. Go back to step 6 of the READ ME and renable your Disk Emulation software with Defogger if you had disabled it.
4. Any other miscellaneous tools we may have had you install or download can be uninstalled and deleted.
5. If we had you download any registry patches like fixme.reg or fixWLK.reg (or any others), you can delete these files now.
6. If running Vista, it is time to make sure you have reenabled UAC by double clicking on the C:\MGtools\enableUAC.reg file and allowing it to be added to the registry.
7. Go to add/remove programs and uninstall HijackThis.
8. Goto the C:\MGtools folder and find the MGclean.bat file. Double click on this file to run this cleanup program that will remove files and folders
   related to MGtools and some other items from our cleaning procedures.
9. If you are running Win 7, Vista, Windows XP or Windows ME, do the below:
   • Refer to the cleaning procedures pointed to by step 7 of the READ ME
     for your Window version and see the instructions to Disable System Restore which will flush your Restore Points.
   • Then reboot and Enable System Restore to create a new clean Restore Point.
10. After doing the above, you should work thru the below link:
    • How to Protect yourself from malware!

 

Only the cleaner... not the registry section of ccleaner. Sometimes more harm than good can be caused by reg cleaners. I have Ccleaner myself, but I do not ever bother with the registry section.

 

You're welcome. Safe surfing!
