    I seriously doubt it. You still need to complete my instructions and attach all of the logs. I would bet that there are still files from the infection on your PC. Completing my instructions will let us know as soon as I see the logs.

    You did not attach two of the required logs. ComboFix and AVG Antispyware. Attach the C:\ComboFix.txt log that you already have and also the AVG AS log if you saved it somewhere. Then do the below.

    Uninstall the below old versions of software:
    J2SE Runtime Environment 5.0 Update 3

    Make sure you reboot after uninstalling the above!

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

    As I expected you are still seriously infected. We will work on a complete fix once I see the other logs.

    I decided to give keep you moving along. Here are your next steps but make sure you do what was requested in message # 11 first.

    As you can see from below, you still had a load of malware.


    Uninstall ewido anti-malware as it was discontinued long ago and was replaced by AVG Antispyware.

    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:

    O2 - BHO: (no name) - {2ABAAC42-84DF-4C00-89DA-BC7EB2B0E70B} - C:\WINDOWS\system32\byxwxyy.dll (file missing)
    O4 - HKLM\..\Policies\Explorer\Run: [Userinit] C:\WINDOWS\system32\inf\svchost.exe C:\WINDOWS\system32\lwisys16_071203.dll start
    O4 - Global Startup: office.lnk = C:\WINDOWS\system\sslxpes071129.exe
    O20 - Winlogon Notify: byxwxyy - byxwxyy.dll (file missing)

    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 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 and also attach the log from Avenger.

    Make sure you tell me how things are working now!

    Its like my computer started snorting blow. 15 seconds off boot time. startup apps load noticably faster. but the real kicker is web page load and refresh times. It accually keeps up with my clicks now../ I am attcking the logs.
    Thank you so much for sharing you expertise. I used to work at dell telling people how to get rid of maleware. I needed the lesson in humility. Thanks

    Well we are not finished yet. It appears that your infection may have mutated inbetween your first set of logs and the time I gave you a fix. Thus the fix deleted many things but most of them came right back due to the fact that the mutation had put new processes and files on your PC. This time, after running the below fix and posting your logs, makes sure you do not power down or reboot. Wait until you hear back from me.

    We now need to do a very similar set of steps again. But first you skipped part of message # 11. You need to do the below:

    Run C:\MGtools\analyse.exe by double clicking on it. This is really HijackThis. Select the Open the Misc Tools Section button on the open page. Then select Open process manager on the left-hand side. Look for the following process (or processes) and one at a time kill them by selecting it and then click Kill process. Then click yes.

    C:\WINDOWS\system32\inf\svchost.exe

    After killing all the above processes, click Back. Then please click Scan 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:

    O4 - HKCU\..\Policies\Explorer\Run: [mscheck] rundll32.exe C:\WINDOWS\system32\wincheck071128.dll mymain
    O4 - Global Startup: office.lnk = C:\WINDOWS\system\sslxpes071203.exe

    After clicking Fix, exit HJT.



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

    Now run Ccleaner!

    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 by running this and also attach the log from Avenger.

    Make sure you tell me how things are working now!

    Also please remember to not power down or reboot after attaching these logs!

    Okay looks a little better but still some files remain. See if you can manually delete the below files right now.
    C:\WINDOWS\system32\wincheck071204.exe
    C:\WINDOWS\system32\wincheck071204.dll
    C:\WINDOWS\system32\mywehit.ini


    Also what else do you see in the below folder:

    It's not a file. It's a folder and I wanted to know what you see in the folder. I still need to know this.

    Not related.

    Run GetLogs.bat again and attach a new MGlogs.zip file.

    As I said it is not a file. It was a folder. A folder contains files. This is no different than the C:\Windows folder which contains many files. Like explorer.exe for one example. Some of the malware files I had you remove were in this folder. These were:
    I wanted to see what other files were in the folder.
