Trojan.Win32.BHO

Welcome to Majorgeeks!


Your best option at a complete resolution to this malware is to run the below and attach the requested logs for the malware experts to review, if needed after the guide they will issue you some tailored removal insttructions to get rid of the remaining pest.

Please follow the instructions in the below link and attach the requested logs when you finish these instructions.

READ & RUN ME FIRST. Malware Removal Guide

 

Please run follow the instructions in the READ & RUN ME link that Halo gave to you from beginning to end and attach ONLY the logs that are requested. For your Windows version this will be the below logs:

• C:\ComboFix.txt
• AVG Antispyware log
• C:\MGlogs.zip

Don't try to fix things on your own. You will only make the problem mutate, spread and thus become worse. If you follow our instructions properly we will be able to get you cleaned up faster.

 

You have been infected by several things the main two are PurityScan and a newest form of Vundo. The Vundo infection has actually infected many of your startup processes including infecing your antivirus and firewall programs. Pretty bad considering this is exactly the kind of thing they should be protecting you from!

We are going to start working on your cleanup but this will take some iteration to try and recover from. Also I will be asking you to download some additional tools we will need. One of these will also be a newer version of MGtools. But wait until I ask. Also up front let me warn you not to download or install ANYTHING else on your PC unless we requested. Anything you download or run could get infected and just compound the removal steps. Also DO NOT REBOOT or POWER DOWN, unless specified in our instructions. Those actions will cause this infection to spread and will make it harder to remove.

I'm looking thru your logs now and will post a starting fix soon.

 

Okay here is a starting fix!

Run C:\MGtools\analyse.exe by double clicking on it. 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:

F3 - REG:win.ini: load=C:\WINDOWS\system32\vturs.exe
O2 - BHO: (no name) - {33A6ECAD-B06A-4EFB-A8B8-BD4781F153C1} - C:\Program Files\Messenger\qugavan.dll (file missing)
O2 - BHO: (no name) - {CF60A3B3-68A4-460F-83AB-631D32A56443} - C:\WINDOWS\system32\vturs.dll
O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [ISUSPM Startup] "C:\Program Files\Common Files\InstallShield\UpdateService\isuspm .exe" -startup
O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [QuickTime Task] "C:\Program Files\QuickTime\QTTask .exe" -atboottime
O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [troy44] C:\WINDOWS\troy44.exe
O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [troy44 ] C:\WINDOWS\troy44 .exe
O4 - HKCU\..\Run: [Sen] "C:\DOCUME~1\Kim\APPLIC~1\ICROSO~1\winspool.exe" -vt yazb
O4 - HKCU\..\Run: [Imebwe] C:\WINDOWS\system32\??crosoft.NET\?vchost.exe

After clicking Fix, exit HJT.

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.

Now download The Avenger by Swandog46, and save it to your Desktop.

• Extract avenger.exe from the Zip file and save it to your desktop
• Run avenger.exe by double-clicking on it.
• Check the 'Input script manually' box.
• Click on the magnifying glass icon.
• Copy everything in the Quote box below, and paste it in the box that opens:

• Now click the 'Done' button.
• Click on the traffic light icon and OK the prompt.
• You will be prompted to restart, OK the prompt and your PC should reboot, if not, reboot it yourself.
• A log file from Avenger will be produced at C:\avenger.txt

Now run Ccleaner!

Now we need to collect some more information and get some new tools.

• Now download and save to RenV.exe to your Desktop (must be on the Desktop)
• Doubleclick RenV.exe
  • When finished, it will produce a new log named Log.txt on the Desktop.
  • We will attach this log later.
• Now download the newest version of MGtools.exe and save it to C:\MGtools.exe as requested in the READ ME.
• Now double click C:\MGtools.exe to install the new version and generate a new log.
• Now attach the below new logs:
  • C:\avenger.txt
  • Log.txt (on your Desktop)
  • C:\MGlogs.zip

 

If your antivirus program is so poorly designed as to not allow you the option you need to run tools to fix your PC, you will have to uninstall your antivirus and then run the fix. Do not reinstall your antivirus until we have finished removing malware because we may need to repeat steps multiple time.

 

Not if you did not do what I requested in my previous fix!! And you need to attach the follow up logs that were requested after doing that fix. Also I suggest that you stop installing/uninstalling antivirus programs like this because you are going to cause youself problems. McAfee and Symantec rarely uninstall properly of completely. So you may have traces of both of them now. And if PCSecurityShield did not uninstall properly, you could have traces of all 3.

 

Uninstall the below old versions of software:
Java 2 Runtime Environment, SE v1.4.2_03
Make sure you reboot after uninstalling the above!

After reboot, now install the current version of Sun Java from: Sun Java Runtime Environment

Then install the current version of FireFox from: Mozilla Firefox

Now let's fix some more malware issues.

• Open Notepad and copy/paste the text in the below quote box into it. Save it as Log.txt to your desktop

• Now using your mouse, drag Log.txt onto RenV.exe
• When finished, RenV.exe will produce a log names Log.txt on your Desktop which will overwrite the one you just made. Attach the new Log.txt to your next reply.

Now run the C:\MGtools\GetLogs.bat file by double clicking on it. Then attach the new C:\MGlogs.zip file that will be created

 

Okay now your logs are clean but you can run analyse.exe to fix the below line from Yahoo Toolbar.

R3 - URLSearchHook: Yahoo! Toolbar - {EF99BD32-C1FB-11D2-892F-0090271D4F88} - (no file)


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

1. If we used Pocket Killbox during your cleanup, do the below
   • Run Pocket Killbox and select File, Cleanup, Delete All Backups
2. If we used ComboFix then UNINSTALL COMBOFIX (This uninstall will only work as written if you installed ComboFix on your Desktop like we requested.)
   • Click START then RUN
   • Now type combofix /u in the runbox and click OK.
   • Note: The space between the X and the U, it must be there.
3. If we user SDFix you can delete all the SDFix related files and folders from your Desktop or whereever you installed it.
4. If we used SmitFraudFix, you can delete all files and folders related to it now including the c:\rapport.txt log.
5. If we used VundoFix, you can delete the VundoFix.exe file and the C:\VundoFix Backups folder and C:\vundofix.txt log that was created.
