    You need to complete ALL the steps in the instructions not just CCleaner and Spybot. Please follow all the instructions given and follow them in the order given and then attach the requested logs!

    Okay...

    1. Basic computer maintenance has been completed by folloqing Run & Read me first by using Auslogics, comdo firewall pro, comodo Boclean, spyware blaster, spybot-S&D, Avast, A squared, msconfig to setup for normal setup mode,

    2. Special removal procedures is done using "Virtumonde aka Trojan Vundo Removal", i even did with safe mode will all the hidden files being shown. I used it but the program found no trace of it. Whats odd is A squared has picked up the trojan numerious times and spybot. I tried the Virtumonde aka Trojan Vundo Removal a second time but i got the same response of no trojan being found.

    3. House cleaning and setup completed, Enable viewing of hidden files, system files and file extensions done, Procedures based on your Windows Operating System done.

    You still have not attach the logs that are requested in the READ & RUN ME instructions. We do not ask for a HijackThis log.

    Do you still have malware problems? If yes, you need to attach the logs that were requested.

    - ComboFix
    - AVG Antispyware
    - MGlogs.zip from running MGtools.exe

    That's because ComboFix did not completely run. If it had, the log you should have been attaching would be named C:\ComboFix.txt not log.txt. Where did you get that log from? What folder? Where did you run ComboFix from?

    You can fix your clock yourself from Control Panel ->Regional and Language Options and then on the Regional Options tab click the Customize button then on the next form click the Time tab. Then change the Time format to what you want. It explains there what the lower case and upper case letters will do. Upper case H is giving you 24 hour clock settings.


    As you will see from below, you definitely were still infected.


    Let's begin by removing a service left over from Symantec!
    • Click on Start, then Run ... type services.msc into the box that opens up, and press 'OK'.
    • On the page that opens, scroll down to Symantec Lic NetConnect service
    • then right click the entry, select Properties and press Stop Service.
    • When it shows that it is stopped, next please set the Start-up Type to 'Disabled'.
    • Click OK until you get back to Windows.
    • Next, run HJT, but instead of scanning, click on the None of the above, just start the program button at the bottom of the choices.
    • At the lower right, click on the Config button
    • Then click the Misc tools button
    • Select Delete an NT Service
    • Copy/pasteCLTNetCnService into the box that opens, and press OK
    • If you receive any error messages just ignore them and continue.
    • Now exit HJT but do not reboot when it tells you it needs to. We will do that further down after running HJT again to fix some other items.
    Now uinstall the below old versions of software:
    J2SE Runtime Environment 5.0 Update 11
    Java(TM) 6 Update 2

    Run C:\MGtools\analyse.exe by double clicking on it. 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:
    O2 - BHO: (no name) - {6B1E542B-0CAE-4673-8BDE-A644271F6878} - C:\WINDOWS\system32\vtutu.dll
    O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [SunJavaUpdateSched] "C:\Program Files\Java\jre1.6.0_03\bin\jusched.exe"

    After clicking Fix, exit HJT.


    Now download The Avenger by Swandog46, and save it to your Desktop.
    • Extract avenger.exe from the Zip file and save it to your desktop
    • Run avenger.exe by double-clicking on it.
    • Check the 'Input script manually' box.
    • Click on the magnifying glass icon.
    • Copy everything in the Quote box below, and paste it in the box that opens:
    • Now click the 'Done' button.
    • Click on the traffic light icon and OK the prompt.
    • You will be prompted to restart, OK the prompt and your PC should reboot, if not, reboot it yourself.
    • A log file from Avenger will be produced at C:\avenger.txt
    After reboot, delete all files in the below folders except ones from the current date (Windows will not let you delete the files from the current day).
    C:\Documents and Settings\Vinesh C. Maharaj\Local Settings\Temp\

    Now run Ccleaner!

    Now run the C:\MGtools\GetLogs.bat file by double clicking on it. Then attach the new C:\MGlogs.zip file that will be created by running this and also attach the log from Avenger.

    Make sure you tell me how things are working now!

    i got the log from C drive. There is another text called comoboFix2.txt...

    okay i did everything..the Symantec Lic NetConnect service thing, the CLTNetCnService...and i have the MGlog.zip. I loaded it on my destop, followed all of it. The only problem is that avenger keeps getting errors everytime i run it, (error code: 0) it didnt even create a log, and my system even found a trojan horse on it called avengeroot (i removed that). I rebooted my system and now for some reason some of my programs are asking for me to insert a cdrom to install them like sonic update manager. Everything been working well except the issues listed above.

    That is not a trojan. The reason Avenger is not working is because you are blocking it from working. Shutdown all protection software and also allow Avenger to run properly. You need run the previous procedure again starting with the Avenger fix.

    got it...yea now its working! I did the avenger, ccleaner, and MGtools...The files for avanger showed not found, so i guess it got deleted the other times i ran avenger.

    (thanks for the help so far) I still have the problem of some of my programs like sonic update manager asking me to put a cdrom in and install it when it reboots. How do i stop this besides clicking cancel all the time?

    okay heres the avenger text and i guess the new MGlog text.

    Delete the below folders:
    C:\Documents and Settings\Vinesh C. Maharaj\Application Data\Viewpoint
    C:\Documents and Settings\Vinesh C. Maharaj\Local Settings\Application Data\Viewpoint
    C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\Viewpoint
    C:\Program Files\Common Files\Viewpoint

    Now delete the below files:
    C:\Program Files\bisrymmj.txt
    C:\Program Files\ffngdhqy.txt
    C:\Program Files\pjglmowj.txt
    C:\Program Files\tjdemyto.txt
    C:\cnjpftje.bat
    C:\vrdexhke.txt
    C:\vvagyiuq.bat
    C:\yyvbeegc.txt

    Other then the above your logs are clean.

    Were you having this problem before the malware problems. This is not due to any current malware. It could be that something related to Windows Installer is corrupted. Possibly a registry key. You could try running the below to see if it locates any issues to cleanup:

    Windows Installer CleanUp Utility


    Other than the above I would suggest that you post a question about this in the Software Forum. If you don't use Sonic, then you could also uninstall it.


    If you are not having any other malware problems, it is time to do our final steps:
    1. If we used Pocket Killbox during your cleanup, do the below
      • Run Pocket Killbox and select File, Cleanup, Delete All Backups
    2. If we used ComboFix, you can delete the ComboFix.exe file, C:\ComboFix folder, C:\QooBox folder, C:\WINDOWS\nircmd.exe, C:\combofix.txt and C:\ComboFix-quarantined-files.txt logs that was created.
    3. If we user SDFix you can delete all the SDFix related files and folders from your Desktop or whereever you installed it.
    4. If we used SmitFraudFix, you can delete all files and folders related to it now including the c:\rapport.txt log.
    5. If we used VundoFix, you can delete the VundoFix.exe file and the C:\VundoFix Backups folder and C:\vundofix.txt log that was created.
    6. If we had your run FixWareOut, you can delete the Fixwareout.exe file and the C:\fixwareout folder.
    7. If we had you run Avenger, you can delete all files related to Avenger now.
    8. If we had you download any registry patches like fixme.reg or fixWLK.reg (or any others), you can delete these files now.
    9. You can delete the C:\MGtools folder and the C:\MGtools.exe file. You can also delete the C:\MGlogs.zip
    10. If you are running Windows XP or Windows ME, do the below:
      • Refer to the cleaning steps in the READ ME for your Window version and see the steps to Disable System Restore which will flush your Restore Points.
      • Then reboot and Enable System Restore to create a new clean Restore Point.
    11. After doing the above, you should work thru the below link:
