Strange Malware?

Please read this:

Don't Bump! It Only Hurts You!!!

I am going to link you to our complete malware removal procedures, which you should follow work through as much as you can and then attach the requested logs.

Welcome to Major Geeks!

Please read ALL of this message including the notes before doing anything.

Pleases follow the instructions in the below link:

READ & RUN ME FIRST. Malware Removal Guide


and attach the requested logs when you finish these instructions.

• **** If something does not run, write down the info to explain to us later but keep on going. ****
• Do not assume that because one step does not work that they all will not. MGtools will frequently run even when all other tools will not.

• After completing the READ & RUN ME and attaching your logs, make sure that you tell us what problems still remain ( if any still do )!

Helpful Notes:

1. If you run into problems trying to run the READ & RUN ME or any of the scans in normal boot mode, you can run the steps in safe boot mode but make sure you tell us what you did later when you post logs. See the below if you do not know how to boot in safe mode:
   
   • Starting your computer in Safe mode
2. If you have problems downloading on the problem PC, download the tools and the manual updates for SUPERAntiSpyware and Malwarebytes ( links are given in the READ & RUN ME) onto another PC and then burn to a CD. Then copy them to the problem PC. You will have to skip getting updates if (and only if) your internet connection does not work. Yes you could use a flash drive too but flash drives are writeable and infections can spread to them.
3. If you cannot seem to login to an infected user account, try using a different user account (if you have one) in either normal or safe boot mode and running only SUPERAntiSpyware and Malwarebytes while logged into this other user account. Then reboot and see if you can log into the problem user account. If you can then run SUPERAntiSpyware, Malwarebytes, ComboFix and MGtools on the infected account as requested in the instructions.
4. To avoid additional delay in getting a response, it is strongly advised that after completing the READ & RUN ME you also read this sticky:
   • Don't Bump! It Only Hurts You!!!

Any additional post is a bump which will add more delay. Once you attach the logs, your thread will be in the work queue and as stated our system works the oldest threads FIRST.
​

If you have problems running executables still, then let me know!

 

Please then also attach the logs from

• SUPERantispyware
• Malware Bytes
• MGTools

 

This is something that will either have to be discussed in the software forum or at the Kaspersky forums.

1. Who instructed you to run this script??

2. Important Notice: A new version of SUPERAntiSpyware is available.

• 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 log later.

It may have been a false positive but the file names are malware-like, randomised, plus, you shouldn't be using cracks. Speaking of which:

I hope the version of Kaspersky you have is not a crack. Is it genuine? You ought to be taking a look at this if it isn't:

Warning about Porn, Keygens, Cracks, and other Illegal Software

3. Please delete the below from your desktop now as it is not where we specified it to be run from anyway.

• C:\Documents and Settings\Kyle\Desktop\MGtools.exe

4. What is this seen on your desktop?

5. Please go to Add/Remove programs and uninstall the following software:

• Messenger Plus! Live <--- famous for inviting infection, you should remove this immediately, as well as the below outdated java:
• J2SE Development Kit 5.0 Update 17
• J2SE Runtime Environment 5.0 Update 17
• Java Auto Updater
• Java DB 10.5.3.0
• Java(TM) SE Development Kit 6 Update 15
• Java(TM) SE Development Kit 6 Update 18

6. Navigate to the below bold file, (file name is a comma) see if you can see it to delete it using windows explorer.

• C:\WINDOWS\system32\'

7. Now we need to use ComboFix

• 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.
• Also make sure you have shut down all protection software (antivirus, antispyware...etc) or they may get in the way of allowing ComboFix to run properly.
• 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 quote box. Ensure you scroll down to select ALL the lines:

Code:

• 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.
• 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.

8. Also delete all files in the below bold folders except ones from the current date (Windows will not let you delete the files from the current day).

9. 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, also attach the log from SAS and address any questions that I asked you.

10. Let me know how things are running now.

 

No. One file is legit, I do not even know if the other file is present on your machine now. I wondered why you had that script showing up in your logs. Just follow the instructions that I gave you.

Okay.

No problem

Great!
