    Welcome to MajorGeeks.com, please follow our standard cleaning procedures:

    http://www.majorgeeks.com/images/grenade.gif Run ALL the steps in this Sticky thread READ & RUN ME FIRST Before Asking for Support

    • Make sure you check version numbers and get all updates.
    http://www.majorgeeks.com/images/grenade.gif Very Important: Make sure you tell us the results from running the tutorial...was anything found? Were you unable to complete any of the scans?...Were you unable to download any of the tools?...Did you do the on-line scans as suggested? etc.

    http://www.majorgeeks.com/images/grenade.gifAfter doing ALL of the above and you still have a problem, make sure you have booted to normal mode and run the steps in the below thread to properly use HijackThis and attach the log:

    http://www.majorgeeks.com/images/grenade.gif Downloading, Installing, and Running HijackThis
    • Make sure you also rename HijackThis.exe as suggested in the procedures. Use analyse.exe for the new name. This is very important due to some new infections going around..
    http://www.majorgeeks.com/images/grenade.gifWhen you return to make your next post, make sure you attach the following logs and that you have run these scans in the following order too:
    • CounterSpy Log - only for Windows XP, 2K, & NT users
    • AVG Antispyware Log - ONLY IF NEEDED you were not able to run CounterSpy. - only for Windows XP, 2K, & NT users
    • Bitdefender Log - from step 6
    • Panda Scan Log - from step 6
    • runkeys.txt - the log from GetRunKey.bat
    • newfiles.txt - the log from ShowNew.bat
    • HijackThis Log
    NOTE: You can only attach 3 files in a single message so it will require that you use two messages to attach all of these logs!

    bjgarrick, thanks for your quick answer...:)

    After following the procedures you indicated, I think I got rid of the Virtumundo virus... at least, Vundofix does not show any files now...

    Just to be sure I am not missing anything else, can you please just take a look at my HJT log, please ??

    I believe that, at least, I will have to check and repair the BHO's (no name) (no file), but would like to be sure of that...

    Thanks for your help!!

    It's not showing because you haven't followed the steps.

    You must first, rename HijackThis.exe to something else such as "analyzethis.exe". Due to the stealth of the newer infections this is required.

    Also, please follow the initial instructions I posted for you. It's a waste of your time as well as mine to have to request all the scans be done again.
