Hello,
I name my tread christmas.exe b/c back in december I receive and open an email from a trusted friend containing holidays wishes. I remember clicking the christmas.exe attachment and had a little problem with my computer after it open in the upper left corner of my screen. Nothing was working until I hit esc key.

After that I reboot and forgot about it. When things start to not work anymore(application error) I did scan after scan for viruses, spyware, malware, clean cookies etc. Everything was OK. All scan were clean. One day I just had open my laptop and had a warning that my computer is running on diagnostic mode and I should run on normal mode. I click the button to change to normal and I look at the start programs. There I find this Christmas Tree program that is running every time I start my computer. I also find 2 register keys under christmas tree name: one in HKCU and one in HKLM. I know I can try to delete them but I want to make sure I get rid of that christmas.exe for good.

I also can't download anything using my Internet explorer 6 browser. Each time I try to download a program or want to see a pdf file on line I have a warning:

AcroR32.exe - Application Error
The application failed to initialise properly (0xc0000142). Click on OK to terminate the application.

if is a new application I just want to download, like ATF Cleaner, I get the same application error warning

ATF-Cleaner[1].exe - application error
The application failed to initialise properly (0xc0000142). Click on OK to terminate the application.

I have CA Anti virus(up to date) - no infection found.(instaled)
I run BitDefender online scanner - no infection found.
I run Kaspersky online scanner - no infection found, but Kaspersky could not scan some folders -
reason - Object is locked. I have the text log.
I also can't use System Restore. I do not have any restore point than the one for today. I created one before yesterday which don't exist anymore. Every time I shut down my computer, my restore points disappear. And I can't access any previous months restore points either.

I have Spybot S&D, Ad-Aware SE personal, CCleaner, SpywareBlaster, SpywareGuard, SuperAntiSpyware and Spamfighter. All of them run before posting.
I also run Zone Alarm Firewall.

Your help to restore this computer to it's glory will be very much appreciated.
Thank you in advance for your time, knowledge and Help.

Hello again, Dorcondor. If you cannot download these files, could you please try to download them on a clean computer, if you have one, and transfer them via USB drive or something similar to your infected computer to run?

1. Download and Save Blacklight to your desktop (choose "I ACCEPT" then click "DOWNLOAD" on the website).

Double-click blbeta.exe then accept the agreement, click > "Scan" then > "Next".

You'll see a list of all items found. There will also be a log on your desktop with the name "fsbl.xxxxxxxxxxxxxx.log" (the xxxxxxxxxxxxxx stand for numbers).

Copy and paste this log in your next reply. Don't choose the rename option yet! I want to see the log first, because legitimate items can also be present there, such as "wbemtest.exe"

2. Please run the F-Secure Online Scanner

Note: This Scanner is for Internet Explorer Only!

• Follow the Instruction Here for installation.
• Accept the License Agreement.
• Once the ActiveX installs,Click Full System Scan
• Once the download completes,the scan will begin automatically.
• The scan will take some time to finish,so please be patient.

Hello handhfan, sorry for the delay. If I save the d/l file to my desktop I can run it after, but I can't run any file directly w/o saving it first. All applications fail to initialize (possible problems with temporary folder???? )
I do not have an other computer, so I d/l Blacklight and save it to my desktop. I run it and here is the log

Yesterday, since noon I try many times to run F-Secure Online Scanner using IE 6 at no avail. Every time the scan start is aborted and I get an warning
"An error has occurred! Please close the scanner and your browser, then try again ( Id:24)" and every time I click OK i have an other thing that say i do not have administrator privilege( when I right click "start" i see Open all user/ Explore all user , and I have only one account on this computer).
I finally used the Fast Stone browser and had the scan done. I know your note was scanner for IE only. Here is the log if it is of any interest:

I try to repair IE 6 in 02/15/2007 according to the guide in browsers forum( run the sfc /scannow) which did nothing but erase the temporary files. I want you to know this b/c in my HJT log from 02/12/2007(log in my 1st post) the christmas.exe file was running from
O4 - HKCU\..\Run: [ChristmasTree] C:\Documents and Settings\user\Local Settings\Temporary Internet Files\Content.IE5\3MRP99FZ\Christmas[1].exe

and now is running from
O4 - HKCU\..\Run: [ChristmasTree] C:\Documents and Settings\user\Desktop\Christmas.exe

In yesterday HJT log you can't see the christmas.exe running b/c I had it turned off and forgot to enable it before the HJT scan. My bad, sorry.

Here is the HJT log after I run the F-Secure scanner with FastStone browser

I did some research and extra scans , , and I find that prevx.com is considering christmas.exe bad , , Malware Family: Part of Malware group - Trojan Lozyt
The attachements are scren shots of what I find about christmas. Maybe they are of interest for you.


Here is a quote of my very first post. No application can be run w/o saving it first to my desktop. I hope this explain "...the application failed to initialise..." . I find bizarre that the application receive a number before the .exe(check the ATF - it is an exact copy of what I see on my screen)

Hello,

.....I also can't download anything using my Internet explorer 6 browser. Each time I try to download a program or want to see a pdf file on line I have a warning:

AcroR32.exe - Application Error
The application failed to initialise properly (0xc0000142). Click on OK to terminate the application.

if is a new application I just want to download, like ATF Cleaner, I get the same application error warning

ATF-Cleaner[1].exe - application error
The application failed to initialise properly (0xc0000142). Click on OK to terminate the application.

I have CA Anti virus(up to date) - no infection found.(installed)
I run BitDefender online scanner - no infection found.
I run Kaspersky online scanner - no infection found, but Kaspersky could not scan some folders -
reason - Object is locked. I have the text log.
I also can't use System Restore. I do not have any restore point than the one for today. I created one before yesterday which don't exist anymore. Every time I shut down my computer, my restore points disappear. And I can't access any previous months restore points either.

I have Spybot S&D, Ad-Aware SE personal, CCleaner, SpywareBlaster, SpywareGuard, SuperAntiSpyware and Spamfighter. All of them run before posting.
I also run Zone Alarm Firewall.

Your help to restore this computer to it's glory will be very much appreciated.
Thank you in advance for your time, knowledge and Help.

Hello again, Dorcondor.

ATF-Cleaner[1].exe - application error
The application failed to initialise properly (0xc0000142). Click on OK to terminate the application.

This error will best be solved in the Windows XP forum here.

We have a couple of last steps to perform and then you're all set to head off to the Windows XP forum.

First, let's clean your restore points and set a new one:

Reset and Re-enable your System Restore to remove infected files that have been backed up by Windows. The files in System Restore are protected to prevent any programs from changing those files. This is the only way to clean these files: (You will lose all previous restore points which are likely to be infected)1. Turn off System Restore.On the Desktop, right-click My Computer.
Click Properties.
Click the System Restore tab.
Check Turn off System Restore.
Click Apply, and then click OK.
2. Restart your computer.

3. Turn ON System Restore.On the Desktop, right-click My Computer.
Click Properties.
Click the System Restore tab.
UN-Check Turn off System Restore.
Click Apply, and then click OK.
[/list]System Restore will now be active again.

Now that you are clean, to help protect your computer in the future I recommend that you get the following free programs:

• SpywareBlaster to help prevent spyware from installing in the first place.
• SpywareGuard to catch and block spyware before it can execute.
• IESpy-Ad to block access to malicious websites so you cannot be redirected to them from an infected site or email.

You should also have a good firewall. Here are 3 free ones available for personal use:

• Sygate Personal Firewall
• Kerio Personal Firewall
• ZoneAlarm

and a good antivirus (these are also free for personal use):

• AVG Anti-Virus
• Avast Home Edition

It is critical to have both a firewall and anti virus to protect your system and to keep them updated.

To keep your operating system up to date visit

• Microsoft Windows Update

monthly. And to keep your system clean run these free malware scanners

• AdAware SE Personal
• Spybot Search & Destroy

weekly, and be aware of what emails you open and websites you visit.

To learn more about how to protect yourself while on the internet read this article by Tony Klien: So how did I get infected in the first place?

Have a safe and happy computing day!

This topic will be closed momentarily.

Hello again, Dorcondor
....
Now that you are clean, to help protect your computer in the future I recommend that you get the following ....

This topic will be closed momentarily.

Hello [b]handhfan],

I beg to defer.
I still have the icon of the Christmas tree on my desktop. So the file is not gone away or cleaned from my computer. I also still have two registry keys with Christmas tree name

HKCU\Software\Christmas Tree
HKU\S-1-5-21-971929597-1256799619-874574627-1005\Software\Christmas Tree

If the computer is clean way this registry keys still there?
If I do a system restore point now, and restore my computer at this point in 2-3 weeks, will this bring back this christmas.exe nightmare???

Please clarify for me way PrevX http://spywarefiles......as%2Eexe.html is considering christmas.exe a Trojan Lozyt and how I clean it.

[handhfan]

Dorcondor,

I am sorry about this. I was replying to your previous post, which had a clean Kaspersky log. However, with the actual new scan being in the post moments after I posted a closing speech, you do still have a few traces, and I will take care of this in a moment, but first I want to answer your questions.

Please remember I cannot see your computer. I assumed after I asked for you to delete the file on your desktop a few posts ago, and that it was not mentioned again on any of the later scans, that it was deleted. But, if this file is still on your desktop, you can delete this manually. (If after you delete it, it comes back, tell me and I'll see if I can make it disappear.) I will fix these registry keys in my fix below.

If I do a system restore point now, and restore my computer at this point in 2-3 weeks, will this bring back this christmas.exe nightmare???

I was asking you to delete your previous restore points, not restore your computer to a previous restore point. However, since we still have a little more to do, I ask that you hold off on this for now.

Please clarify for me way PrevX http://spywarefiles......as%2Eexe.html is considering christmas.exe a Trojan Lozyt and how I clean it.

A Trojan horse (often shortened to simply trojan) is a program that contains or installs a malicious program (sometimes called the payload or 'trojan'). Trojan horses may appear to be useful or interesting programs (or at the very least harmless) to an unsuspecting user, but are actually harmful when executed. (See Social engineering.)

On the PrevX page that you link to, it says this:

The following behaviors have been observed for this object:
* Installs programs.
* Deletes programs.
* Runs other programs.
* Scans active processes.
* Terminates processes.
* Creates known malware.
* Creates copies of itself.

Since this is not a common peice of malware, I do not have enough information to find all the traces of this particular infection, but I assume that it should disappear when we delete the file and the registry keys you have found.

Now, to the fixes.

Let's start by deleting the following through Windows Explorer:

C:\Documents and Settings\user\Desktop\Christmas.exe
D:\Documents and Settings\PSP_goodies\filters\Ufx.zip

Now, we'll need to dig into the registry to clean your computer up a bit.

First, let's back up your registry.

• Go to Start > Run
• Type: regedit
• Click OK.
• On the leftside, click to highlight My Computer at the top.
• Go up to "File > Export"
  • Make sure in that window there is a tick next to "All" under Export Branch.
  • Leave the "Save As Type" as "Registration Files".
  • Under "Filename" put backup
• Choose to save it to C:\ or somewhere else safe so that you will remember where you put it (don't put it on the desktop!)
• Click save and then go to File > Exit.

This is so the registry can be restored to this point if we need it. It may take a minute. Just let it go until it's done.

Next, we are going to create a .reg file that will change some settings tweaked by malware.

• Please click on the Start menu, and click on All Programs.
• Scroll to the folder that says Accessories and click on Notepad.
• Copy the text in the code box below into Notepad, and save as fix.reg on your desktop.

Make sure that the blank line at the bottom of the box is present in Notepad!

REGEDIT4

[-HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\ChristmasTree]

[-HKEY_USER\S-1-5-21-971929597-1256799619-874574627-1005\Software\Christmas Tree]

Finally, we need to merge this with the registry. To do this, simply double-click fix.reg on your desktop, and when it asks you if you want to merge with the registry, click OK.

When this is completed, restart, and give a new HijackThis log, and tell me if ChristmasTree.exe is gone and if you think you are clean now. Then, we can help you in the Windows OS forum to fix those errors you have been getting.

[Dorcondor]

I have find 2 more entry related to christmas.exe :
HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\Curent Version\Explorer\ComDlg32\Open SaveMRU\exe

Hello again, Dorcondor.

You can delete it.

First, let's clean your restore points and set a new one:

Reset and Re-enable your System Restore to remove infected files that have been backed up by Windows. The files in System Restore are protected to prevent any programs from changing those files. This is the only way to clean these files: (You will lose all previous restore points which are likely to be infected)1. Turn off System Restore.On the Desktop, right-click My Computer.
Click Properties.
Click the System Restore tab.
Check Turn off System Restore.
Click Apply, and then click OK.
2. Restart your computer.

3. Turn ON System Restore.On the Desktop, right-click My Computer.
Click Properties.
Click the System Restore tab.
UN-Check Turn off System Restore.
Click Apply, and then click OK.
[/list]System Restore will now be active again.

Now that you are clean, to help protect your computer in the future I recommend that you get the following free programs:

• SpywareBlaster to help prevent spyware from installing in the first place.
• SpywareGuard to catch and block spyware before it can execute.
• IESpy-Ad to block access to malicious websites so you cannot be redirected to them from an infected site or email.

You should also have a good firewall. Here are 3 free ones available for personal use:

• Sygate Personal Firewall
• Kerio Personal Firewall
• ZoneAlarm

and a good antivirus (these are also free for personal use):

• AVG Anti-Virus
• Avast Home Edition

It is critical to have both a firewall and anti virus to protect your system and to keep them updated.

To keep your operating system up to date visit

• Microsoft Windows Update

monthly. And to keep your system clean run these free malware scanners

• AdAware SE Personal
• Spybot Search & Destroy

weekly, and be aware of what emails you open and websites you visit.

To learn more about how to protect yourself while on the internet read this article by Tony Klien: So how did I get infected in the first place?

Have a safe and happy computing day!

This topic will be closed momentarily.
