Make sure you tell me how things are working now!

 

Uninstall the below software:
Java 2 Runtime Environment, SE v1.4.0

After clicking Fix, exit HJT.

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 attach the below new logs and tell me how the above steps went.

1. Avenger
2. GetRunKey
3. ShowNew
4. HJT

Make sure you tell me how things are working now!

Reminder Note: Once we have determined you are malware free you will need to disable System Restore, reboot, and re-enable system restore per step 8 of the READ & RUN ME. This only applies to if using WinXP or WinMe.

 

Try running the Avenger fix again. It did not work properly. Be sure to follow the steps exactly. Try shutting down you Symantec AV first, it may be causing problems for the fix.

Then reattach all new logs.

 

Was the log from ShowNew obtained after running Avenger or before? The reason I ask is that all the files the Avneger log says were deleted are still in your ShowNew log.

Do you see the below files on your PC?

Code:

"C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM32\"
twyxx~2.bak Jul 19 2007 1795911 "twyxx.bak2"
lmlnn~2.bak Jul 14 2007 1936316 "lmlnn.bak2"
 
"C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM32\"
lmlnn.ini    Jul 14 2007 1941645 "lmlnn.ini"
xbcdd.ini    Jul 10 2007 1844643 "xbcdd.ini"
axsnronr.ini Jul  6 2007 1053927 "axsnronr.ini"
prkiftvr.ini Jul  9 2007 1173221 "prkiftvr.ini"
yworkbwu.ini Jul  9 2007 1054639 "yworkbwu.ini"
khhmsjet.ini Jul  8 2007 1054448 "khhmsjet.ini"
okapxthp.ini Jul 14 2007 1192819 "okapxthp.ini"
eodigilv.ini Jul 17 2007 645     "eodigilv.ini"
nuyafrlu.ini Jul 18 2007 1136943 "nuyafrlu.ini"
twyxx.ini    Jul 19 2007 1793908 "twyxx.ini"

If so, delete them.

Also delete the below folder:
C:\Documents and Settings\Default\Application Data\Sunbelt Software

Do you know what the below file is for?

Code:

"C:\Documents and Settings\"
rotccjwr.txt  Jul 22 2007        1742  "rotccjwr.txt"

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.

Now attach new logs from GetRunKey and ShowNew.

 

Okay then delete that file. Also check this one out which is probably the same thing:

C:\Program Files\fwiruthl.txt

Delete it to if it is from Avenger.


Your logs are clean. 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, you can delete the ComboFix.exe file, C:\ComboFix folder, C:\QooBox folder, C:\WINDOWS\nircmd.exe, and the C:\combofix.txt log that was created.
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.
6. If we had your run FixWareOut, you can delete the Fixwareout.exe file and the C:\fixwareout folder.
7. If we had you run Avenger, you can delete all files related to Avenger now.
8. If we had you download any registry patches like fixme.reg or fixWLK.reg (or any others), you can delete these files now.
9. You can delete the ShowNew.Zip and GetRunkey.Zip files and the files that you extracted from the ZIP files. You can also delete the C:\newfiles.txt and C:\runkeys.txt logs that were created
10. If you are running Windows XP or Windows ME, do the below:
    • go back to step 8 of the READ & RUN ME to Disable System Restore which will flush your Restore Points.
    • Then reboot and Enable System Restore to create a new clean Restore Point.
11. After doing the above, you should work thru the below link:
