Fighting off virtumonde.sdn

    Hi, I'm trying to fight off a virtumonde.sdn infection. I've gone through the pinned standard cleaning instructions. I did everything, but was unable to get the malwarebytes anti-malware to work, even after renaming it. Not sure why...? I also tried vundofix, but it didn't detect the infection. Spybot search and destroy keeps finding it though and the infection continues to affect my windows startup (very slow, spybot starts loading, causes desktop to freeze before completing startup).

    I've attached the logs I got from running super antispyware, combofix, rootrepeal, and mgtools.

    Any help would be appreciated, thanks!

    Please use windows explorer to find and delete:
    C:\Documents and Settings\Jason.UBERCOMPUTER\Application Data\AVP 2009

    Now use add/remove programs to uninstall:
    J2SE Runtime Environment 5.0 Update 6
    Java(TM) 6 Update 12

    Now reboot and download and install:
    Java Runtime 6

    Tell me what issues you may still have, as I am not seeing any malware in your logs.

    Thanks for the help. I ran spybot S&D again and it is reporting no immediate threats, so I think I'm good :thumbsup:

    Good to know.

    If you are not having any other malware problems, it is time to do our final steps:

    1. We recommend you keep SUPERAntiSpyware and Malwarebytes Anti-Malware for scanning/removal of malware. Unless you purchase them, they provide no real time protection. They do not use any significant amount of resources ( except a little disk space ) until you run a scan.
    2. If we had you use ComboFix, uninstall ComboFix (This uninstall will only work as written if you installed ComboFix on your Desktop like we requested.)
      • Click START then RUN and enter the below into the run box and then click OK. Note the quotes are required
      • "%userprofile%\Desktop\combofix" /uninstall
        • Notes: The space between the combofix" and the /uninstall, it must be there.
        • This will uninstall ComboFix and also reset hidden files and folders settings back to Windows defaults.


    3. Go back to step 6 of the READ ME and renable your Disk Emulation software with Defogger if you had disabled it.
    4. Any other miscellaneous tools we may have had you install or download can be uninstalled and deleted.
    5. If we had you download any registry patches like fixme.reg or fixWLK.reg (or any others), you can delete these files now.
    6. If running Vista, it is time to make sure you have reenabled UAC by double clicking on the C:\MGtools\enableUAC.reg file and allowing it to be added to the registry.
    7. Go to add/remove programs and uninstall HijackThis.
    8. Goto the C:\MGtools folder and find the MGclean.bat file. Double click on this file to run this cleanup program that will remove files and folders related to MGtools and some other items from our cleaning procedures.
    9. If you are running Win 7, Vista, Windows XP or Windows ME, do the below:
      • Refer to the cleaning procedures pointed to by step 7 of the READ ME
        for your Window version and see the instructions to Disable System Restore which will flush your Restore Points.
      • Then reboot and Enable System Restore to create a new clean Restore Point.

    10. After doing the above, you should work thru the below link:
