    I've done a full scan twice now & Bitdefender Total Security 08 cannot delete Trojan.Generic.1606558 - Delete Failed (file was in an archive)
    I've tried to manual remove the file but cannot. The Trojan is in C:\ProgramData\VistaCodecs\{48FA971C-5CFE-4FF4-8F78-28981B25309B}\Vista Codec Package.msi=](Embedded CAB)=]settings32.exe.

    Since this has happen Mozilla Firefox has stopped working. I've uninstalled/reinstalled 4 times now re-booted you name it.

    Any help would be much appreciated

    Kind regards

    Malware Trojan Infected-Please Help

    OS Vista Home Premium
    Dell Inspiron 1525
    Whilst searching Google, diverts me to other sites when I click to visit a site, pop ups, etc.
    Scanned with Adaware, 2 Trojans found and deleted, scanned again, came up clean.
    Problems still there though? Installed Malware Bites and Spybot, installed O.K but won't let me open them? I can open them on another laptop with the same specs fine.
    Installed highjack this...ready for any help....
    Full system scan with BitDefender,nothing detected,still same problems after rebooting.

    Hello again - jesushairdo109

    re: Post #3


    DO NOT tie up resources by posting to multiple malware removal forums! The malware fighter @ bleepingcomputers gave you instructions on April 20th which you have not responded to. Decide where you wish to work a thread and post a *CLOSE this thread* on all other forums.

    IF... you decide to work here - refer to our


    READ & RUN ME FIRST. Malware Removal Guide

    I will expect a reply to this message, informing me of where you decide to work a thread.

    I posted a thread in the Majorgeeks welcome center titled Malware Trojan Infected-Please Help for my sisters laptop. I've followed all instructions for her (ashley) then after all the scans i posted the logs plus the zip file. I did it twice by mistake.

    I've put close thread on bleepingcomputers.

    Kind regards

    Re: Malware Trojan Infected-Please Help

    You have not attached all the required logs which is why Dr.Moriarty asked you to run the READ & RUN ME. You only attached a log from MGtools which is the very last program we ask you to run. The cleaning procedure asks for 4 logs. I will quote from the cleaning procedure.
    Thus you still need to attach the SUPERAntiSpyware, Malwarebytes, and ComboFix logs.

    Working with the logs I have sofar -

    The below fixes are specific to your problem and should only be used for issue(s) on this machine. Also, please do not install any other software while we are still working with you unless instructed. Once we have given you the all clean and final instructions you will be free to install what you want.

    I strongly recommend that you clean up your Desktop immediately leaving only links. Do not store downloads, exe files, iso files....etc on your Desktop. First it is not a safe place to keep them (i.e., you may loose them due to malware, and a cluttered Desktop is an easy hiding place for malware), and last but not least it can have an effect on your PCs performance.

    An observation - Ad-Aware is becoming useless in detecting and removing malware...SAS & MBAM are far better tools.

    Step 1:
    Please look in Add/Remove Programs for the following and uninstall if found. If you get any errors just make a note and proceed
    Step 2:
    Run C:\MGtools\analyse.exe by double clicking on it (Note: if using Vista, don't double click, use right click and select Run As Administrator). 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:
    Step 3:
    Open Ccleaner - select "Cleaner" > "Run Cleaner" <---use this ONLY

    Step 4:
    Now install the latest Sun Java Runtime Environment

    Step 5:
    Make sure that both SAS & MBAM are the most recent versions as of this posting:
    • SUPERAntiSpyware v. 4.26.1002
      Trace : 1840
    • Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware v. 1.36
      Database version : 2128

    * Run both of the above updated scanners.

    Step 6:
    Go to this link MGTools and download the new version of MGtools....overwrite your previous MGtools.exe file with this one.

    Then run the C:\MGtools\GetLogs.bat file by double clicking on it (Note: if using Vista, use right click and select Run As Administrator).

    Attach the below logs to your next reply:
    • C:\MGlogs.zip
    • C:\Qoobox\ComboFix2.txt
    • SASlog.txt log from SuperAntiSpyware.
    • Malwarebytes Anti-Malware log

    Make sure you tell me if you had any problems running this procedure and give a description of how things are working now!
