Can't access Google, Microsoft, and other - Seriously frustrating malware

I am an idiot.

First the problem: Wife uses this computer mostly for school, and started about 2 weeks ago not being able to access google, I didn't pay too much attention to her about it assuming something was going on with googles servers from the conficker virus or something. Well I sit down to set up opendns.org as the dns servers on 3-31-09 to prevent any serious bs from conficker and it doesn't really load right, and realise she is right (I know, suprise right) you can't get anything from google to work.

Now I've been using CCleaner AVG free, spybot, and windows firewall for a great while, keeping them and MSUpdates up to date, I also tend to keep my settings tight, not a lot of extra services running, and IE settings on most things to ask first, so I wasn't too concerned.

So I start trying to resolve whatever is taking over my host file, or DNS, and I begin what has now been about a week of B.S. with this, I had done each of the steps listed here as well as a bunch of other before coming to MajorGeeks.com except the MGtools, so I have run that now too (logs attached). I have been able to get rid of most crap in the past with little difficulty, But this is drivin' me nuts!

I am sure I have made things more difficult by doing as much as I did prior to MajorGeeks and hope someone with some mad anti-malware skillz can help get me out of this mess!

As of right now:
-still can't access google through either IE or Chrome
-can ping and tracert to google, resolves correctly
-sunbelt firewall (installed after infection) seems to be allowing traffic to tons of random ports, especially to 007Guard.com (which I have blocked in Sunbelt as well as in my openDNS settings
-the computer is not bogging down as much as it was
-it seems that I have disabled javascript, or something is limiting it
-most prevalent issues in most of the antivirus scans I ran were about iframe.downloader.**

-HELP!-

 

Here are the other logs

Also using the TCPView tool from sysinternals (now MS) I can see a lot of SYSTEM:4 processes, that don't seem right to me so I attatched a log for you too, (hope that's all right)

Edit: if I type in www.google.com it times out, if I type in the IP it goes right to google (74.125.67.100), but of course I can't search through the page that way...

 

Thanks Chaslang, I appreciate your help!

I have flushed the DNS and no change.

I do have 1 other PC and a PPC on this network, they are both fine.
I have run naked through the net (no firewall), and run in Safe Mode and as Administrator - same thing...

While I haven't reset my host file, I have scoured through my host file and do not se anything that is blocking me there.

I am on Camcast Cable, using a cable modem followed by a wireless gateway (this comp is actually plugged into the gateway), while I don't have full access to either(they're comcasts) and I haven't reset it to factory defaults, I have soft reset it (flipped the power off to let it reset) -no change...

I definitivly did have some nasty trojan that was tryin' like he11 to take me over, it even changed something enough that I had to reset my bios, and master boot table in order to boot, but that was now weeks ago, and I have been trying to completely clean everything from the ba5tard... I am glad to hear you beleive the logs are clean, that in itself is a breath of fresh air!

However the lack of Google was one of the first things noticed, and I think it somehow is left over from whatever it was my comp had. As I stated in my op I realise I have made it harder with the ammount of clearing out I have done prior to finding Majorgeeks, and for that, I appologise, and wish I had taken better notes. But I am where I am, I can't go backwards...

So any other ideas at this point? I will try the hosts file, just to be sure.
What would the next step be?

 

The host file didn't do it, do you have any other suggestions?

 

Chaslang,

Thank you so much for helping me, I know it may not seem like you did much in this case, however, just knowing that you saw the logs as clean, got me to stop looking for another rougue prog on my wifes pc, and ended up indirectly leading me to the sollution.

Thank You!

Everyone else...

Just wanted to let you know that I resolved my issue!!!

I didn't even consider opendns as the culprit, but it was!

While I love OpenDNS and will continue to use it for most things, however it only works if you update everything; ie- if you have a router that has DNS settings locked by your ISP (Comcast in my case) OpenDns will not allow you to use Google.com (making the computer ineffective to my student wife).

Even though my computers DNS settings were using OpenDNS, the router was using comcasts standard DNS servers.

That caoused the to to mess with each other - but only for Google.com - - Wha? why only Google???

Because OpenDNS, actually caches a special page for google (I believe that's the only one) and the two don't jive, -so going to google.com in a browser doesn't work, but tracert to google.com does work....

I hope my reply helps someone else out there.

I also hope OpenDNS knocks off the google cache trick...

- I switched her PC to advantagedns for now, no probs with google.com anymore!!!
