Infection gone?

I was doing a search (a harmless one, I might add) and hit an infected website which infected my machine. I'm just making sure I got everything.

Sorry guys (again). I hate having to post logs and add more to the workload.

 

MG logs

 

:wave

Hi, Laura!

I'm checking your logs.

 

Hey doc Thanks.

Btw, the infection seemed to be gone when I was done running the process. Unfortunately, once I rebooted, it was back the next day.

I ran Combofix again, and this time it seemed to fix it. I haven't had any signs of anything.

(the signs were that Spysweeper was continually blocking access to spam sites which, if I didn't have it, I'm assuming would have been popup after popup)

 

There's been an update to SAS.

• Please uninstall your current version (this is necessary).
• Then download this SUPERAntiSpyware
• Install this new version. It may tell you that you need to reboot to complete the installation. You must reboot at this time.
• After the reboot, run SUPERAntiSpyware and immediately click the Check for Updates button to get more updates for the database.
• Now run a new full scan of your system. And attach this new log.

TNX,
dr.m

 

:-D

Here's my log...

 

Btw, Here's my second combofix log with the other stuff it removed...

 

:wave

Hi, Laura!

*Nothing bad was found in your logs...

Please look in Add/Remove Programs for the following and uninstall if found. If you get any errors just make a note and proceed

Open CCleaner - select "Cleaner" > "Run Cleaner" <---use this function ONLY!

Let's restore something that ComboFix quarantined in error.

• Make sure that combofix.exe that you downloaded while doing the READ & RUN ME is on your Desktop but Do not run it!
  • If it is not on your Desktop, the below will not work.
• Make sure you have shut down all protection software (antivirus, antispyware, firewall...etc) programs so they do not interfere with the running of ComboFix. *Remember to re-start them before coming back online.
• If ComboFix tells you it needs to update to a new version, make sure you allow it to update.
• Open Notepad and copy/paste the text in the below code box into it (make sure you scroll all the way down in the code box to get all lines selected ):

• Save the above as CFscript.txt and make sure you save it to the same location (should be on your Desktop) as ComboFix.exe
• At this point, you MUST EXIT ALL BROWSERS NOW before continuing!
• You should have both the ComboFix.exe and CFScript.txt icons on your Desktop.
  If it asks you to overide the previous file with the same name, click YES.
• Now use your mouse to drag CFscript.txt on top of ComboFix.exe

• Follow the prompts.
• When it finishes, a log will be produced named c:\combofix.txt
• I will ask for this log below

Note:

Do not mouseclick combofix's window while it is running. That may cause it to stall.

Let's update some of your tools.
Download and install these new versions:

• SpyBot-Search & Destroy Tools 1.6.2.46
  • Make sure that you do not have Teatimer enabled. How to disable Spybot's TeaTimer
• SpywareBlaster 4.2

Now go to this link to install the latest MGTools.zip update
MGTools and download the new version of MGtools....overwrite your previous MGtools.exe file with this one.

Then run the C:\MGtools\GetLogs.bat file by double clicking on it (Note: if using Vista, use right click and select Run As Administrator).

Please attach the below logs to your next reply:

• C:\DeQuarantine_log.txt
• C:\MGlogs.zip

Thanks!

Hey Dr.

I had removed those programs prior.

Ok...so I ran Combofix and it froze on reboot. I ran it again and it generated a log. I could not find the DeQuarantine log anywhere (even did a search for the name). So I've attached the Combofix log and the MGtools log.

 

Ok - this will work, Laura.

* Correcting my CFscript syntax error.

• Make sure that combofix.exe that you downloaded while doing the READ & RUN ME is on your Desktop but Do not run it!

Thanks!

 

That worked.

 

:cool



Your logs are clean, Laura - 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 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" /u
     • Notes: The space between the combofix" and the /u, it must be there.
     • This will uninstall ComboFix and also reset hidden files and folders settings back to Windows defaults.
3. Any other miscellaneous tools we may have had you install or download can be uninstalled and deleted.
4. If we had you download any registry patches like fixme.reg or fixWLK.reg (or any others), you can delete these files now.
5. 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.
6. Go to add/remove programs and uninstall HijackThis.
7. 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.
8. If you are running Vista, Windows XP or Windows ME, do the below:
   • Refer to the cleaning procedures in step 3 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.
9. After doing the above, you should work thru the below link:
   • How to Protect yourself from malware!
