    It won't leave! It just keeps popping up! What do I do? My avg anti virus detects it as a trojan horse backdoor and now it can't locate it. What do I do?

    Welcome to Major Geeks! MissGwyneth

    The best advice I can give you to stop this once and for all is to follow the below guide and attach the logs requested, then one of out very experienced malware experts can assist you in removing this pest.

    Sadly not all Antivirus applications can fully remove the malware infection and if they do remove it, the same malware infection comes back as their is likely to be other infections its not detecting and thus these others are downloading their payload again and re-infecting you with the same one AVG picks up.

    Please follow the instructions in the below link 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.
    Notes:

    1. If you run into problems trying to run theREAD & RUN ME or any of the scans in normal boot mode. You can running 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:
    2. If you have problems downloading on the problem PC, download the tools on another PC and 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.

    The file name infected is c:\\windows\win.exe
    The threat name is Trojan horse backdoor.Generic9.MSQ

    I've done what you posted for both computers. These are the log files from computer number 1.

    The logs for your other PC were moved into another thread. Always work different PCs in their own thread.

    The log for this first PC shows signs of a Fujacks (also called Win32.Delf) infection which can infect every single executable file on your PC. In addition this infection can spread to all PCs on the same network that have file sharing enabled. Have you updated AVG and have you run a FULL system scan with it? If not, please do so immediately. If you have already done so, had it mentioned any infections and did it fix them? Fujacks infections can sometimes require a reinstall to properly fix since they can cause many required system and application files to get deleted while the infection is being cleaned.



    Uninstall Search Settings 1.2

    Run C:\MGtools\analyse.exe by double clicking on it (Note: if using Vista, don't double click, use right click and select Run As Administrator). This is really HijackThis (select Do a system scan only) 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:

    O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [QuickTime Task] "C:\Program Files\QuickTime\QTTask.exe" -atboottime
    O23 - Service: SessionLauncher - Unknown owner - C:\DOCUME~1\Luke\LOCALS~1\Temp\DX9\SessionLauncher.exe (file missing)

    After clicking Fix, exit HJT.


    Now we need to use ComboFix to remove a bunch of malware files.
    • 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.
    • Open Notepad and copy/paste the text in the below quote box into it:
    • 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.

    Copy the bold text below to notepad. Save it as fixme.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.
    Make sure that you tell me if you receive a success message about adding the above
    to the registry. If you do not get a success message, it definitely did not work.


    Now look for the the below files on all drives (in ALL PCs) including removable disk drives (flash drives...etc) and delete them if found.
    win.exe
    qpe6.com


    Now run Ccleaner!

    Now run the C:\MGtools\GetLogs.bat file by double clicking on it (Note: if using Vista, don't double click, use right click and select Run As Administrator).


    Then attach the below logs:
    • C:\ComboFix.txt
    • C:\MGlogs.zip
    Make sure you tell me how things are working now!
