    Hi,

    I downloaded a file and infected my computer with winupgro.exe
    I am attaching a copy of the logs from MGtools, hijackthis, and SUPERAntiSpyware

    I am running Windows XP and the winupgro.exe is still showing up on restart on my task manager. I appreciate your help!

    Thanks,
    Private Hopefull

    I need the entire C:\MGLogs.zip....not just the HJT log.

    In the meantime:

    Run C:\MGtools\analyse.exe by double clicking on it (Note: if using Vista, don't double click, use right click and select Run As Administrator). 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:
    After clicking Fix, exit HJT.

    Now use windows explorer to fine and delete that file:
    C:\Documents and Settings\Steve Sterling\Application Data\drivers\winupgro.exe

    Now run the C:\MGtools\GetLogs.bat file by double clicking on it. Then attach the new C:\MGlogs.zip file.

    Hi,
    I attached the entire C:MGLogs.zip as you requested. (I also included the SASlog.txt)
    I don't know what happened to ComboFix.txt I down loaded ComboFix and I thought I ran it(?)
    and I can't find the Malwarebytes Anti-Malware log either

    I'm going to do as you instructed in your last thread.

    Thanks for you help!

    You have gotten more infected. :(

    Your MBAM logs are here:
    Combo is here, but not run:
    C:\Documents and Settings\Steve Sterling\Desktop\ComboFix.exe

    We may need to use it so......

    * Make sure that combofix.exe that you downloaded while doing the READ & RUN ME is on your Desktop but Do not run it!
    o If it is not on your Desktop, the below will not work.
    * 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 ):
    Code:
    KILLALL::
    
    Drivers::
    srosa
    
    File::
    C:\Documents and Settings\Steve Sterling\Application Data\mjusbsp
    C:\Documents and Settings\Steve Sterling\Local Settings\Application Data\tjnet
    
    Registry::
    [-HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\srosa]
    [-HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\srosa\Security]
    [-HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\ControlSet001\Services\srosa]
    [-HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\ControlSet001\Services\srosa\Security]
    [-HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\ControlSet003\Services\srosa]
    [-HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\ControlSet003\Services\srosa\Security]
    
    * 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 prvevious file with the same name, click YES.
    * Now use your mouse to drag CFscript.txt on top of ComboFix.exe
    http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v666/sUBs/CFScriptB-4.gif
    * 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.

    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 Combo.

    Reporting in Sir,

    I did as you instructed me to do. I tried to run Combofix by dragging & dropping the notepad script. The Combofix application started and opened in a window but, I don't think it ever finished. I tried it twice and the second time I let it run all night. I looked for the log and couldn't find it even using search. Desk top froze and I had to do a restart. winupgro.exe showed up on Task manager. I repeated the previous instructions: Run C"/MGtools/analyse.exe ... system scan ... O4-HKCU/..?Run:[drvsyskit]C:/Documents and Settings/Steve Sterling/Application Data/drivers/winupgro.exe and deleted it.
    Then I ran the C:MGtools/GetLogs.bat file and I am attaching
    C:/MGlogs.zip file.

    Thanks for your help!

    The Combo fix worked, but there are three items left to delete:
    C:\Documents and Settings\Steve Sterling\Application Data\drivers\srosa2.sys
    C:\Documents and Settings\Steve Sterling\Application Data\drivers\winupgro.exe
    C:\Documents and Settings\Steve Sterling\Local Settings\Application Data\tjnet

    Now run CCleaner....both the cleaner and the registry ( make sure you do the backup when prompted).

    Now run the C:\MGtools\GetLogs.bat file by double clicking on it. Then attach the new C:\MGlogs.zip file.

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

    1. We recommed you keep SUPERAntiSpyware and Malwarebytes Anti-Malware for scanning/removal of malware. Unless you purchase them, they provide no real time protection. They are useful as backup scanners. 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.

      • Delete the C:\combofix folder from combofix (if it exists)

    3. Any other miscellaneous tools we may have had you install or download can be uninstalled and deleted.
    4. 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.
    5. Go to add/remove programs and uninstall HijackThis.
    6. You can delete the C:\MGtools folder and the C:\MGtools.exe file. You can also delete the C:\MGlogs.zip
    7. If you are running Vista, 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.

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

    Hi Tim,
    I did as you instructed me to do. I then did a restart and Enabled System Restore. Next I checked my task manager and I noticed that winupgro.exe is still there[/B]. I still have the tools that I deleted in my recycle bin (C:\combofix folder , C:\MGtools, C:\MGtools.exe, C:\MGlogs.zip)
    I did a search for winupgro.exe and it came up in
    C:\documents and settings\stevesterling\application\drivers\winupgro.exe
    I couldn't locate the file when I went to that location (?)
    so I deleted it off the search window and then out of recycle bin.
    Please tell me how I should proceed.

    Thanks,
    Private Hopefull

    If you couldn't find the file on the drive and any subsequent search turns up no results, then I would not be concerned.

    Keep your AV and AS software updated and use them as needed. :)
