Okay! Lets start with one problem at a time.

Please download HOSTER and then follow the below steps.

• Unzip Hoster to a convenient folder such as C:\Hoster

• Run Hoster.exe, click Restore Original Hosts and then click OK.
• Click the X to exit the program.

Now, download the following removal tools:
(Be sure you have System Restore DISABLED)

• Trojan Vundo Removal Tool
• Trojan Vundo B Removal Tool

Now, Reboot into SAFE MODE WITH NETWORKING and run these removal tools one at a time.

Still in Safe Mode, run the following online scans:

TrendMicro Online Scan
Bitdefender online scan
RavAntivirus online scan <-- select Auto Clean then click Scan My PC
TrojanScan online scan

Reboot into Normal Mode and attach a fresh HJT log.

 

ok ran hoster then did symantec scans no virus detected in either scan now I have just finished trendmicro house call 457 virus's detected, now the only button able to click on is delete is that what I do (sorry for the dumb question )
thanks vicki

 

Click "Delete" to remove all infections. Afterwards, reboot and post a fresh HJT log.

 

ok all done sorry it took a while I will have to paste again cause IE is stil freezing on links

ok here we go wow I can upload, the link worked your a star !! The only prob I had was trying to delete the c:\windows\msagent\abr.dll it said something was using the file I was in safe mode but with networking cause I could not get normal safe mode to load it just had a black screen anyway I'm not sure why I could not delete it any sugestions? thanks heaps for all your advice.
vicki

 

Everything looks ok except for the Trojan Vundo infection. We will have to manually remove it. Please follow the below fix very carefully.

First download: - ProcessExplorer for Win NT/2K/XP

Reboot in Safe Mode (do not open any other processes)

- Run Process Explorer

In the top section of the Process Explorer screen double click on winlogon.exe to bring up the winlogon.exe properties screen. Click on the Threads tab at the top.

Once you see this screen click on each instance of abr.dll once and then click the kill button. After you have killed all of the abr.dll's under winlogon click ok.

Next double click on explorer.exe and again click once on each instance of abr.dll then click the kill button. Once you have done that click ok again.

Run HijackThis 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: MSEvents Object - {B8B55274-0F9A-41E5-9067-A3539BD9E860} -C:\WINDOWS\msagent\abr.dll
O20 - Winlogon Notify: abr - C:\WINDOWS\msagent\abr.dll

Copy the bold text below to notepad. Save it as fix.reg to your desktop.
Be sure the "Save as" type is set to "all files"
Once you have saved it double click it and allow it to merge with the registry.

Now run Pocket Killbox:
Choose Tools > Delete Temp Files and click OK.
In Killbox - put a check next to "Delete on Reboot"
Copy & paste the following line in bold into the "Full Path of File To Delete" box:

C:\WINDOWS\msagent\abr.dll

Then click the red button with the X and allow Killbox to reboot then post a new HijackThis log.

 

sorry been away ok I attached my log, is it ok to delete the fix.reg file now off the desktop? and can you please suggest what programs and how often to run them to stop this from happening in the future I know it may happen but if I can be doing the right things it may help. thanks heaps
vicki

 

Yes you can delete the reg file. Your HJT log is now clean! Please see this thread below for more information about programs that will help protect you.
