Virtumonde infestation eradicated?

doogie13 · Dec 28, 2008

Hi,

yesterday I noted my laptop acting 'strange' ( screen flickering, BSOD ) and frequent pop-ups telling me my computer was not secure.

After running spybot & lavasoft I found several instances of the Virtumonde worm. After some more searching I came across your forum.

Please find attached the log files from the various scans.

At the moment I have not had any new pop-ups , but could you confirm my laptop is clean?

Thanks in advance!

Virtumonde infestation eradicated? Post 2

And the MG logs file

Well that was all pretty ignorant of me. To assume that my laptop would be free from Virtumondo after one round of scanning.

I just did a second batch, but only this time SUPERantispyware came up with six instances. The other scans all came up empty handed.

Please find attached the results.

Congrats, doogie 13 --- no malware was found. It is time to do our final steps:

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 significan amount of resources ( except a little disk space ) until you run a scan.

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)

If we had you run Avenger, you can delete all files related to Avenger now.

Any other miscellaneous tools we may have had you install or download can be uninstalled and deleted.

If we had you download any registry patches like fixme.reg or fixWLK.reg (or any others), you can delete these files now.

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.

Go to add/remove programs and uninstall HijackThis.

You can delete the C:\MGtools folder and the C:\MGtools.exe file. You can also delete the C:\MGlogs.zip

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.

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