sry for the late response Oct,
obove are my logs.

i've realized my cousin have installed a couple of pc games (counter strike and unreal tournament) while i was away from my desktop. i'll make sure to have him not mess around our healing process anymore if anything.
besides the taskbar millitary time, i've noticed video streaming such as youtube seem to take much longer to view

Hello chou05,

Those logs don't look too bad.

Before we delete it can you tell me if you know what this file is?

C:\Documents and Settings\Owner\Desktop\file 6 - Infection\Mod\ca_setup.exe

Could you perform another scan with MBAM, but only this time make sure that Perform Full Scan is selected prior to scanning.

Hello chou05,

Sorry for the delay, I too have had some work related issues. :)

Those infected files are quarantined in Housecall and from an earlier scan of Combofix which we can remove shortly, they are not doing any harm there.

was not vundo application a recogmended download by you?

That is correct, but there isn't anything there to indicate any problem with the VundoFix application. :)

I am not sure that the video streaming speed is directly related to the issues here.

We will have to fix the 24 hour time display manually.
  • Click the Start button then Control Panel then select Regional and Language Options icon.
  • With the Regional Options tab selected click the Customise button and this will open an additional settings box.
  • Select the Time tab and ensure that in the Time format: drop down list is set to h:mm:ss tt (make sure that the "h" is not capitalised).
  • Click Ok to accept the changes and close any open program windows.
You also have infected files in your System Restore points, so let's reset those points to remove those files.

To reset your restore points, please note that you will need to log into your computer with an account which has full administrator access. You will know if the account has administrator access because you will be able to see the System Restore tab. If the tab is missing, you are logged in under a limited account.

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. Reboot.

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.
1. Please open Notepad
  • Click Start , then Run
  • Type notepad .exe in the Run Box.
2. Now copy/paste the entire content of the codebox below into the Notepad window:

File::
C:\Documents and Settings\Owner\Desktop\file 6 - Infection\Mod\ca_setup.exe

Folder::
C:\Documents and Settings\Owner\.housecall6.6\Quarantine

Driver::

Registry::



3. Save the above as CFScript.txt

4. Then drag the CFScript.txt into ComboFix.exe as depicted in the animation below. This will start ComboFix again.

5. After reboot, (in case it asks to reboot), please post the following reports/logs into your next reply:
  • Combofix.txt
  • A new HijackThis log
  • Let me know how the computer is behaving. (Did the time display stay as it should etc.)

Combofix has a routine built into it so that if the version that you have is more than several days old then what you experienced will occur. We can remove the files manually.

Using Windows Explorer, navigate to the following folder and delete all the files inside.

C:\Documents and Settings\Owner\.housecall6.6\Quarantine

Also delete the following file.

C:\Documents and Settings\Owner\Desktop\file 6 - Infection\Mod\ca_setup.exe

Could you please scan with Deckards System Scanner and post the results as I should be able to see what I am looking for in that log.

Hello chou05,

Congratulations. Your log appears to be clean. :)

I don't see anything more in those logs that would be causing any concern. If you are still having issues with slow video streaming then may I suggest that you start a fresh topic in the Windows forum.

We need to clean up a few things before we finish.

Using Windows Explorer, please remove the following files:

C:\RegBU.reg

and these files if you still have them on your desktop:

CF-querySvc.exe
querySvc.exe


Please download OTCleanIt by OldTimer and save it to your desktop.

Double click on OTCleanIt.exe to open the application then click on the CleanUp! button to run the CleanUp tool.

The CleanUp tool will run and remove an assortment of Malware tools that we installed to help clean your computer. The CleanUp tool will also delete itself upon completion.

To reset your restore points, please note that you will need to ensure that you have logged into your computer with an account which has full administrator access. You will know if the account has administrator access because you will be able to see the System Restore tab. If the tab is missing, you are logged in under a limited account.

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. Reboot.

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.

Please follow these Tips to prevent a possible infection or re-infection.

You have installed MalwareBytes Anti-Malware so I recommend that you keep that updated and scan on a regular basis to help keep your computer clean of any nasties.

Download, install AND update the following free programs. It is important to keep all anti-malware programs updated. Please update at least once a week.
  • Spybot Search & Destroy - A powerful tool which can search and annhilate nasties that make it onto your system. Now with an Immunize section that will help prevent future infections.
  • AdAware - Another very powerful tool which searches and kills nasties that infect your system. AdAware and Spybot Search & Destroy compliment each other very well.
  • SpywareBlaster - Great prevention tool to keep nasties from installing on your system.
  • SpywareGuard - Works as a Spyware "Shield" to protect your computer from getting malware in the first place.
  • ATF Cleaner - Cleans temporary files from IE and Windows, empties the recycle bin and more. Great tool to help speed up your computer and knock out those nasties that like to reside in the temp folders.
  • Windows Updates - It is very important to make sure that both Internet Explorer and Windows are kept current with the latest critical security patches from Microsoft. To do this just start Internet Explorer and select Tools > Windows Update, and follow the online instructions from there.
  • Google Toolbar - Free google toolbar that allows you to use the powerful Google search engine from the bar, but also blocks pop up windows.
You should also have a good firewall. Here are 2 free ones available for personal use:
and a good antivirus (these are also free for personal use):
It is critical to have both a firewall and anti virus to protect your system and to keep them updated.

To find out more information about how you got infected in the first place and some great guidelines to follow to prevent future infections you can read this article by Tony Klein.
