W32.Allim Virus- Please help remove

I received this virus through aim. I got a message from someone on my buddy list, but it wasn't really them. The message said "Hey check out this." I clicked on the link and it downloaded an exe file. I ran it and nothing happened. Now my virus scan shows that I have this virus, and msiexec.exe is infected. I've updated my virus protection software and tried to clean it, but it failed.

Please help if you can.

Thank you

 

Copy the contents of the Quote Box below to Notepad. Then click File and then Save As. Change the Save as Type to All Files. Name the file fix.reg and then click save. (make sure you save it somewhere you can find it. Saving it to your Desktop may make that easy.)

Double-click on the fix.reg file on your desktop (or locate it with Windows Explorer and double click on it if not saved to the Desktop) and when it prompts to merge, click YES!


NEXT:
Download Pocket KillBox

Now, Copy and Paste C:\WINDOWS\System32\winimsg.exe into the box – If it exists, it will show up in Blue. Check the option to Delete on Reboot and Click the Red X and Yes to the confirmation message. A message will ask if you want to reboot now – Click YES.

Reboot into Safe Mode w/ Networking

After you have booted into Safe Mode, run these online scans posting your results as what was found and if it was removed.

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

After you complete these scans, remove all found infections!

Reboot into Normal Mode and attach a current HJT log.

 

Thank you for your response and help.

I have done what you told me to do. The scans did not show up with anything. I do, however, get an error when I startup that says that it can't find the file: msiexec.exe.

I have attached the HJT log.

Thank you again for your help.

 

Scan with HijackThis and Check the Boxes for the following:

Make sure All Browser Windows are Closed when you Click FIX.

F2 - REG:system.ini: Shell=Explorer.exe C:\Windows\msiexec.exe

O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [LTWinModem1] ltmsg.exe 9

Again, make sure All Browser Windows are Closed when you Click FIX.

NOW:
Do a search for the file ltmsg.exe and delete when found! If you cant delete this in normal mode, reboot into Safe Mode and delete it.

NEXT:
Run CCleaner and Spybot S&D and have Spybot fix what it finds.
Note: Dont forget to update Spybot S&D by selecting "Search For Updates"

Then, as an added precaution, Go to Start > Run and type: cleanmgr and then click OK. Make sure the boxes for these are checked:
Temporary Files
Temporary Internet Files
Recycle Bin

And Click OK.


After doing ALL of the above, reboot scan with HJT and attach a fresh HJT log. Also, let me know what problems if any remain.

 

Here is the new HJT log. The computer seems to be running fine so far. I'll keep you updated on its progress if something weird happens.

Thank you so much for your help.

 

Please look in Add/Remove Program and uninstall the following:

Viewpoint

Now, navigate to and delete the following folder if it still remains:

C:\Program Files\Viewpoint

After doing the above, your log will be clean. Are you having any further problems?
