    So here's another report on the notorious bts.scour redirect virus.
    I tried running the clean-up processes and tools suggested in other threads but none seemed to have worked for me.

    Attached are the logs.

    P.S. I ran Avira (updated to the latest) scan before all the tools and found a TR/Rogue.kdv.746477. Virus signature in Avira said that it was a rootkit type and is responsible for the redirects. Anyhoots, I deleted it with Avira after quarantine.

    Still receiving redirects though. I was thinking, Avira might have just deleted the virus but not the whole rootkit responsible for producing the virus.

    Well, awaiting for help. It's all yours.

    I got two new logs by RK: RKreport[1].txt and RKreport[2].txt. No RKreport[3].txt. I'm attaching both. Successfully deleted HKEYs though, leaving only two as per instruction.

    And hey, thanks for the welcome.

    Can't find
    What I found was a sppsvc.exe. Anyhoots, attached is the required log.

    P.S. I read through the log and OTL didn't find certain firefox files. I'm using chrome. Maybe we missed something here? Well, just a thought.

    That looks OK.

    This is OK. I was mostly doing redundant fixes to make sure the items were indeed gone ;)

    If you are not having any other malware related problems, it is time to do our final steps:
    • Any programs we had you download and/or install can be removed at this time.
    • If we had you download and run ComboFix, here is how to uninstall it:
      • Press and hold the Windows key http://i1106.photobucket.com/albums/h363/debojyotidas/Windows_Logo_key.gif and then press the letter R on your keyboard.
      • This opens the Run dialog box.
      • Copy and paste the below text inside the text-field:
        • "%userprofile%\desktop\ComboFix" /uninstall
      • Now press ENTER
      • ComboFix will extract its files one last time and you should receive a notification that ComboFix has been uninstalled shortly after.
    • You can re-enable your Disk Emulation software at this time via DeFogger.
    • If we had you create or download a registry patch or "fix" script, these can be deleted at this time.
    • Go into the C:\MGtools folder and run the MGclean.bat file to remove additional traces of our tools.
    • Now we will toggle System Restore to remove any infected system restore points.
    • Lastly, here is a guide to protect you from future infections: How to Protect yourself from malware!
    • Be safe :)
