Virus gone? No idea what to look for in logs.

Welcome to Major Geeks!

Uninstall the below old versions of software:
Java 2 Platform, Enterprise Edition 1.4 SDK
Java 2 Runtime Environment, SE v1.4.2_06
AVG Antispyware <-- we are finished with it now and you already have Pest Patrol installed.

Make sure you reboot after uninstalling the above!

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

If you need the Sun Java Development kit you can get it here: http://java.sun.com/javase/downloads/index.jsp

Run 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:

R3 - Default URLSearchHook is missing
O2 - BHO: (no name) - {47B83D78-F986-4E96-9769-2C55EF14DA0B} - C:\WINDOWS\System32\__c00CCAA4.dat (file missing)
O3 - Toolbar: (no name) - {BA52B914-B692-46c4-B683-905236F6F655} - (no file)
O3 - Toolbar: Protection Bar - {F06E2ABE-3A50-4079-BE25-FC100D9EAA25} - C:\Program Files\Security Tools\iesbpl.dll (file missing)
O20 - AppInit_DLLs: C:\WINDOWS\System32\__c0067602.dat

NOTE: HJT may popup an error about the AppInit_DLLs line. Ignore it and click OK to continue.

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.

 

That means you did not get a new log! You must attach a new log. Not the same log.

 

Your logs are clean however please attach the below file to your next message.

C:\WINDOWS\hvccgeuh.txt


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:
    • How to Protect yourself from malware!

 

You'e welcome. Surf safely!

Okay you can delete the C:\WINDOWS\hvccgeuh.txt file, it is just a temporay file from Avenger.

 

Yes this is normally the case for most people coming here.

 

The dates in Add/Remove programs indicating when a program has last been used do not always seem to be accurate. I have seen this many times before. For example right now Ccleaner is report as last being used on 5/30/2004 on my PC and I just used it this afternoon. There are at least 5 others in my Add/Remove programs list that I know are reporting incorrect dates. Sometimes the report from Add/Remove programs shows old dates and sometime it shows new dates. I would not worry about it.

 

You're welcome!
