XP Pro SP3 32bit; windowsupdate blocked, ComboFix & MGtools hang

Go to TDSSKiller and Download TDSSKiller.zip to your Desktop

• Extract its contents to your Desktop so that you have TDSSKiller.exe directly on your Desktop and not in any subfolder of the Desktop.
• Now double click the TDSSkiller.exe file to run it ( if using Vista or Windows 7 do not double click on it but rather, right click and select Run As Administrartor.
• Allow the application to run and a window will open showing that it is TDSSkiller from Kaspersky
• Click Start scan
• It will run rather quickly and will notify you of whether anything is found or not.
• Follow the instructions to delete/quarantine if asks you what to do when if finds something.

Whether an infection is found or not, a log file should be created on your C: drive ( or whatever drive you boot from) in the root folder named something like TDSSKiller.2.1.1_27.12.2009_14.17.04_log.txt which is based on the program version # and date and time run. Please attach this log to your next reply. (See: HOW TO: Attach Items To Your Post )


Try renaming combofix.exe to kestrel13.com and rename MGTools.exe to magpie.com try and run them in normal mode and if that proves problematic in any way then please try safemode.

Attach logs if you were successful.

 

What happened with AVG? Why did you uninstall it? It has left behind many remnants.

If you did not deliberately set this proxy yourself then please include it in the HJT fix below:

Please disable all anti-virus and anti-spyware programs while we do the following (re-enable when you are finished):

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:

After clicking Fix exit HJT.

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:

KILLALL::

Driver::
osiul
File::
c:\windows\system32\lsp3.tmp
c:\windows\system32\drivers\fmpbbvgyiynoig.sys 
DirLook::
c:\documents and settings\All Users\Application Data\MFAData
FileLook::
c:\windows\system32\KOBJUJ_L.DLL
c:\windows\system32\Spool\prtprocs\w32x86\KOBJUA_P.DLL
c:\windows\system32\KOBJUA_L.DLL
RegLock::
[HKEY_USERS\S-1-5-21-770428285-1606066415-2055916039-500\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\User Preferences]

• 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.

Please go to virustotal and upload the following files for analysis, and let me know the results.

• c:\windows\system32\KOBJUJ_L.DLL
• c:\windows\system32\Spool\prtprocs\w32x86\KOBJUA_P.DLL
• c:\windows\system32\KOBJUA_L.DLL

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.

Things running okay for you?

 

No problem. I will be waiting.

 

You can continue here if necessary. Remember... he needs to know these files need closer examination:

• c:\windows\system32\KOBJUJ_L.DLL
• c:\windows\system32\Spool\prtprocs\w32x86\KOBJUA_P.DLL
• c:\windows\system32\KOBJUA_L.DLL

I think they are malware. But I was going to run them through an online scanner to see what they picked up on.

 

Okay, the files we had scanned with VirusTotal are fine. They belong to KONICA.

So tell me, are you still being redirected?

What problems now remain?
