    Evening all.

    I'm posting from a problematic laptop, infected about 24 hours ago, ran the required diags, logs attached.

    Still getting random exe's running in tandem with starting a real program then hiding, leaving the exe's in the folder with what appears to be the real program exe. Massive damage from Avast! trying to deal with a huge amount of infected files last night.

    Could you check the logs and advise the next course of action, please.

    All the owner's passwords have bben changed from a clean PC, I'd like to wipe this one but getting 0x7B's on trying to boot to Safe Mode, can't trust the disk even after running fixmbr/fixboot from the XP CD.

    Thanks :)

    You have evidence of a Ramnit infection. Please go here and run a scan:
    eSet Online Scan.

    I will look at your logs as you do this.

    Please double-click the RootRepeal.exe previously downloaded.

    * Select File then Scan
    * On the Select Drives form select drive C by "ticking" the box for drive C and click OK
    * When the scan is complete - highlight each of the following file(s) (one at a time if more then one is listed) by left clicking it. Then use right mouse click and select the Wipe File option only for each file.
    C:\gslqirjd.exe
    C:\Program Files\xmtexrap\gslqirjd.exe
    C:\Documents and Settings\Keith\Start Menu\Programs\Startup\gslqirjd.exe

    * After Wiping all files, immediately reboot your pc!

    After reboot, download/install/update and run the scanning tools you couldn't run!

    Now download The Avenger by Swandog469, and save it to your Desktop.

    * Extract+ avenger.exe from the Zip file and save it to your desktop

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

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:
    After clicking Fix, exit HJT.

    Now copy just the bold text below to notepad (Do not include any space above the word REGEDIT). 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.

    Actually since we already know it is a Ramnit infection, it may not be worth running this. Especially since newer forms of the infection seem to block it anyway. My suggestion would be to download and run a full scan ( not a quick scan ) with Microsoft Security Essentials. In a recent thread, it appears to have worked successfully. That does not mean it is guaranteed to succeed here, but it is worth a try.

    Thanks for your time and efforts guys, after hitting several blocks trying the suggestions, I bailed out and flattened it. Currently updating it post-install and SP3/IE8.

    Thanks again.

    Probably the best course of action. ;)
