My system is infected with the trojan-spy.html.smitfraud.c virus - blue screen on the desktop and everything. I've gone through all the required steps before posting which got rid of a few other virus and adware, but left smitfraud. The scan with Trend Housecall also showed two files called js dragdrop.gen which apoparently couldn't be cleaned. What should I do to sort out this problem? I'm using Windows XP and with AVG, Spybot and Ad-Aware. Have carried out all the steps suggested already inc. the windows update, and I have also tried getting rid of a few obvious files using hijack and killbox.

here's my log file

many thanks in advance for any help...

I note that you used the "custom scan" option of Ad-Aware, to ensure that nothing is missed it is preferable to use the "Full scan" option. Please launch Ad-Aware SE and check for any Definition File updates. Click on the gear to access the Configuration Menu. Click on Tweak > Cleaning Engine > UNcheck "Always try to unload modules before deletion". Then, please follow the steps listed below. Once we have removed the dross we can home in on the major causes of your problems.

It is suggested that you clean the following directory contents (but not the directory folder). Please disconnect from the internet (for broadband/cable users, it is recommended that you disconnect the cable connection) and close all open browsers.

Run CCleaner to assist in this process. [D/L CCleaner] (Setup: go to >options > settings > Uncheck "Only delete files in Windows Temp folders older than 48 hours" for cleaning malware files!)1. C:\Windows\Temp\
2. C:\Documents and Settings\<Your Profile>\Local Settings\Temporary Internet Files\ <=This will delete all your cached internet content including cookies.
3. C:\Documents and Settings\<Your Profile>\Local Settings\Temp\
4. C:\Documents and Settings\<Any other users Profile>\Local Settings\Temporary Internet Files\
5. C:\Documents and Settings\<Any other users Profile>\Local Settings\Temp\
6. Empty your "Recycle Bin".
B. Please shutdown/restart the computer. Do not launch any programs or connect to the internet at this time.[list]
1. Launch Ad-Aware SE and run a Full Scan. Deselect "Search for negligible risk entries"

[dixdix]

anyone?

[Eric the Red]

Sorry dixdix, I have been away on business.

Please read these instructions carefully and print them out! Be sure to follow ALL instructions!

Go to Start > Control Panel > Add or Remove Programs and remove the following programs, if found:

Security IGuard
Virtual Maid
Search Maid

Exit Add/Remove Programs.

*IMPORTANT*CLICK THIS LINK TO LEARN HOW TO VIEW HIDDEN FILES

Press CTRL ALT DELETE to open Windows Task Manger. Click on the Processes tab and end the following processes:

List any files going to be deleted that are running

Exit Task Manager.

*Click Here to download Killbox by Option^Explicit.
*Extract the program to your desktop and double-click on its folder, then double-click on Killbox.exe to start the program.
*In the killbox program, select the Delete on Reboot option.
*In the field labeled Full Path of File to Delete enter the file paths listed below ONE AT A TIME (EXACTLY as it appears, please double check to make sure! I would just copy each file path and paste it in the field) MAKE SURE TO ENTER ALL FILE PATHS!:

C:\wp.exe
C:\wp.bmp
C:\Windows\sites.ini
C:\Windows\popuper.exe
C:\WINDOWS\System32\wldr.dll
C:\Windows\System32\helper.exe
C:\Windows\System32\intmonp.exe
C:\Windows\System32\msmsgs.exe
C:\Windows\System32\ole32vbs.exe
C:\Windows\system32\msole32.exe

Press the button that looks like a red circle with a white X in it after each one. When it asks if you would like to delete on reboot, press the YES button, when it asks if you want to reboot now, press the NO button. Do this after each one until you have entered the LAST file path I have listed above. After that LAST file path has been entered press the YES button at both prompts so that your computer restarts. If you recieve an error message "PendingRenameOperation...." and your computer doesn't restart, please restart it manually.

While your computer is restarting, tap the F8 key continually until a menu appears. Use your up arrow key to highlight Safe Mode, then hit enter.

Make sure you can view hidden files.

Using Windows Explorer, delete the following (please do NOT try to find them by "search" because they will not show up that way)

FOLDERS to delete (in bold) if found:

C:\Program Files\Search Maid
C:\Program Files\Virtual Maid
C:\Windows\System32\Log Files
C:\Program Files\Security IGuard

Reboot into normal mode.

*Download and install Registrar Lite version 2.00
*Double click the purple Registrar Lite icon on your desktop.
*Copy the line below and paste it into the "Address" field (located at the top) of the program:

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies

*Click the "Go" button.
*It will take you into the "Policies" folder.
*Locate the "System" folder (in the right panel)
*If found, right-click on the System folder and go to Delete
*Be very careful that you only delete the System folder that is inside the Policies folder.

Reboot your computer again.

1.) Download the Hoster from HERE Press "Restore Original Hosts" and press "OK". Exit Program.

2.) Download: http://www.mvps.org/winhelp2002/DelDomains.inf
To use: right-click and select: Install (no need to restart)
Note: This will remove all entries in the "Trusted Zone" and "Ranges" also.

3.) Download, install, and run CleanUp!

4.) Run this online virus scan: ActiveScan - Save the results from the scan in a location where they can be recovered later!

Do this before we move on to any further work.

[dixdix]

ok done all that. Don't know wether you wanted the activescan log posting but here it is anyway. I've still got spyware alerts coming up though.

[Eric the Red]

dixdix,

Well done. I am now going to hand you over to the Hijack This! gurus to finally clean your machine, you mentioned in your first post in this thread that you are familiar with the product.

Open up HJT and ensure that you have the latest version, you can update to the latest version from within:
Lower right ... Config
Top line ... Misc Tools
Check for the update online.)

When HJT has loaded click on the "Scan and save logfile" button.
Save the log somewhere you will remember and open the log file with notepad.

Please do not fix anything yet with this or any other program as most of what it shows is harmless. When our experts examine this they will tell you what to fix and if anything needs to be submitted for evaluation.

After you have scanned with HJT, please copy and paste the logfile here: HijackThis Forum

Kindly note that the logs are reviewed on a first come/first served basis. See "You Must Read This Before Posting A Hijackthis Log, Required steps before posting your log" for further information.

Thanks, and good luck.

Edited by Eric the Red, 25 April 2005 - 03:34 PM.

[Eric the Red]

Please follow the instructions located in Step Five: Posting a Hijack This Log. Post your HJT log as a reply to this thread, which has been relocated to the Malware Removal Forum for providing you with further assistance.

[Michelle]

I assume after working with Eric, you have your desktop & properties back?

The first step in this process is to apply Service Pack 1a for Windows XP. Without this update, you're wide open to re-infection, and we're both just wasting our time.
Click here: http://www.microsoft...p1/default.mspx
Apply the update, reboot, and post a fresh Hijack This log.

[Michelle]

Your log is not showing that you have downloaded Serivce Pack 1, I can not help you until it shows this. The only thing I can suggest is to download Service Pack 2, but let me know if you receive an error message.

[dixdix]

hmm... i did exactly what it said. I'll try again and repost. If not do you have a link for 2?
