    Microsoft Defender has reported that it has discovered a Trojan on my laptop PC. It says the threat level is severe.

    I do not understand why this happened. At the time Defender announced its discovery I was not connected to the Internet. Well, maybe I was because the PC automatically connects via a Wi-Fi router and my router was switched on. However, I did not have my web browser open. I was typing a Word document.

    I did not allow Defender to take any measures against the malware. I simply closed down the PC and have not switched it on since.

    I would like you to advise what steps to take for us to discover whether some malware has infected the machine, the actual level of threat, if there is any, and what steps we take to deal with the malware if there really is some.

    I am quite annoyed by this as it’s the laptop PC we cleaned up not so long ago and since that I’ve hardly used it.

    I’m not well today and have had to phone in work sick not making me Mr Popular. So I’ve had the time to carry out your second set of advice but have not done so because I don’t feel like doing it.

    I would like, though, to ask if this laptop PC is showing signs of malware infection. I will have to go into work tomorrow, come what may, and I really could make use of this laptop PC tomorrow. Is it safe to use?

    Oh My! Malware Expert Staff Member

    Though I would prefer to complete the step I posted, I don't see anything of significant concern. My opinion is that in this state it is safe to use.

    I, too, would prefer to complete the step you posted. I do not come on here, ask for advice and then reject it.

    I was happy to be told that the PC is probably safe to use.

    I want the PC safe and any issues resolved; therefore, I have completed the step you posted. In the next two posts I post, in the order listed below, the following:
    • Fixlog.txt.
    • Search.txt
    Thank you for the continued sport.

    That looks good.

    I think we are all set. Are there any remaining questions or concerns you might have before I post some tool/log clean up instructions and other information for you to consider going forward?

    Thank you for your help.

    I do have one question: What was the problem with the computer that you've resolved for me?
     
  21. Oh My!

    Oh My! Malware Expert Staff Member

    Greetings.

    We did some general cleanup and looked for the entry Windows Defender was identifying. The file was an entry in Firefox Cache. Windows Defender's characterization of Severe is often times inaccurate. Since your computer was not experiencing any symptoms or abnormalities I don't think it is anything to be concerned about. This type of activity is common.

    Thank you, Oh My! Much appreciated.

    I'd be happy for you to post some clean up instructions, etc. To save your time if they're the same as in previous help just tell me and I can do them. It'll save you having to provide them all again.

    If they will be different, please provide them.

    I went to Microsoft Defender on the PC today so as to update virus and threat protection. I have to do it manually as it no longer does it automatically.

    I noticed it still mentions the Trojan:HTML/Phish!pz and recommends dealing with it. Should I let Defender clean it as it wants to or just ignore it?

    Allow Windows Defender to clean it.

    May I please clarify? Do I let Windows Defender clean it and then use the Farbar Service Scanner.

    Alternatively, do I only use the Farbar Service Scanner and that will get Windows Defender to clean it?

    Thanks!

    Oh My! Malware Expert Staff Member

    They are separate steps and it doesn't matter in which order.

    Do you still have to manually update Windows Defender? It should automatically update via Windows Update.
     
  29. mark59

    mark59 MajorGeek

    I have carried out both steps. In my next post I will paste the contentx of the FSS.txt.

    I ran Windows Defender first. Computers do nothing but continue to confuse me more and more. When I opened Defender the threat was there and I clicked on the options to fix it. A Quick Scan then began. It stopped at one point and listed the same threat. I clicked on the option to deal with it and the Quick Scan continued. At the end of the scan it reported there were no problems. This surprised me. As it had claimed the threat was 'Severe' I would have expected to be told that it had been quarantined rather than the scan found no issues.

    I still have to manually update Windows Defender. I also have to manually update Windows. My desktop PC (my other computer) updates Windows Defender daily. However, this one we're working on hasn't automaticlly updated Windows Defender for a long time. Windows Updates shows me when there are updates available for Windows. However, they always fail. I then go the Microsoft Update Catalog, download the update based on the KB number of the update and then manually install it.

    Was the Farbar Service Scanner report OK, no problems?

    Is there anything else I need to do?

    Could my Windows Defender problem be the fact the computer in question is a Windows 10 PC? I believe Microsoft don't support that version so much now.

    I have a problem.

    I went to do the scan you request I do in the previous post.

    I found I no longer have FRST64 on my PC. Therefore, I went to a previous post in this thread to click on the download link you posted for FRST64. It downloaded two files on to my desktop but not what seems to be FRST64. I also received a message on the download I have never previously encountered: This file is not commonly downloaded. I attach a screen print of that message for you to see.

    I do not know why that happened. However, I went to Bleeping Computer's site, searched for Farbar Recovery Scan Tool in their search box. The same thing happened: the same two files downloaded and I got the same message as previously about this file not being commonly downloaded.

    The files that did download are called:

    • FRST64.exe
    • FRST64.h31zlbx.exe.part

    The icon for FRST64.exe does not look like the icon previously did when I've downloaded it previously.

    EDIT: After posting the above, signing out of Majorgeeks and then closing my broswer the two files I listed above were no longer on my desktop. They'd gone to the Recycle Bin but I didn't send them there.

    I think the Gremlins are back. This PC is behaving weirdly.

    I'm completely confused. :confused:

    When downloading FRST64 it does create a random file name until the file is completely downloaded. Usually that happens behind the scenes and is not visible to a user.

    When downloading FRST64 from BleepingComputer any warnings or cautions can be safely ignored. Scanners realize it is an intrusive program but the intrusiveness is for good, not evil.

    Disable Windows Defender and try to download the file, or download it onto a USB from another computer and transfer the file to the one we are working on.

    I suspect the problem may not be mine but BleepingComputer.

    I went to download FRST64 to my other PC, the newish desktop that's working fine. However, I had exactly the same issue in attempting to download FRST64.

    I did the first three bullet points as requested.

    As for the final one I could not find Detection History; however, I did find Protection History. It says, "Threat found - action needed. It dates and times it as 28/01/2024 00:29". The threat is classified as 'Severe'. Indeed, it is listed twenty times. Then listed 23 times is, "Threat blocked 28/01/2024 00:29". Then next in the list is, "Remediation incomplete 28/01/2024 00:29". This occurs once then. Then, "Threat blocked 28/01/2024 00:29" is listed six times. Next, once only, is listed, "Threat quarantined 28/01/2024 00:29". Then other 16 times is again, "Threat blocked 28/01/2024 00:29".Then one listeing again of, "Remediation incomplete 28/01/2024 00:29". Then finally, "Threat blocked 28/01/2024 00:29" is listed ten more times.

    I don't know if this is the right information. I apologise if it is not.

    Are you still showing detections?

    Yes, the same one listed twelve times.

    I feel so stupid telling you the following. I've just been clicking on 'Start Actions' at the bottom of the screen. I didn't realise I had to click the down arrow next to each listed threat and choose the action. Obviously, I'm now going to do that and see if Defender rids me of the problem.

    One more stupud question to ask. For the action should I choose Remove or Quarantine?

    Sorry you have to put up with such stupidity!

    It's OK. Select Remove.
