Hi..

Thanks for helping me out.
I got a laptop belongs to my friend and can't connect to the internet using IE or FIREFOX.
Using cmd I tried to ping but result nothing, I ping again using numbers instead of words it worked.

After the system start up...at the desktop show up a pop up warning mentioned that there is a trojan that going to destroy the system....it recommend to download a spyware immediately. I rather not as I assume that's the virus.

So, here is the Hijakthis report.

Hi faried,

I am currently reviewing your log and will post back soon.

Please take note of the following points.

• Please keep in mind that there may be a time difference between us, If you are not in the GMT +1 time zone, than you can expect a slight delay.
  
• Please do not run any tools other than what I request of you to run. Some of the tools we will use are very powerful, and using them without the required knowledge could cause more damage and prove to be more troublesome than the problem you are currently facing.
  
• If at any time you have a doubt about what you are to do, please stop there and ask. No question is considered dumb here at GeeksToGo!.

Thanks,

Mike

Hi there faried,

First off I will need you to move Hijack This onto the infected computer. Create a folder on your desktop name HJT and drag HijackThis.exe into that folder.

Question, is INTERMEDIANET your service provider?

Preparation

I notice you have no Firewall program installed on your computer. These programs are necessary in keeping your computer safe from hackers and remote attacks against your computer. Without one you are opening a door for hackers. I would like you to download one of these free programs I have listed here for you.
Note: Make sure to only install ONE program, as having more can cause confliction between these programs, which in turn lowers your protection and slows down your computer.

• Comodo Firewall
• ZoneAlarm

Step 1. Uploading a suspicious file

Please go to Uploadmalware to upload a suspicious file for analysis.

• Enter your username from this forum
• Copy and paste the link to this thread
• Browse for this filename: C:\WINDOWS\bupost32.dll
• In the comments, please mention that I asked you to upload this file
• Click on Send File

You may need to show hidden files, which you can do by following the instructions found here.

Jotti Scan

• Please go to Jotti's malware scan
  
• Copy and paste the following file path into the "File to upload & scan"box on the top of the page:
  
  
  • C:\WINDOWS\bupost32.dll
• Click on the submit button
  
• Please post the results in your next reply.

If jotti is busy please try the same over at www.virustotal.com

Step 2. Fixes with Hijack This

Please open HijackThis again and choose "Do a system scan only". Please put a check next to each of the following entries (if still present):

R0 - HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main,Start Page = http://www.homepagle...10fb0dd2032b38/
O4 - HKUS\S-1-5-19\..\RunOnce: [ShowDeskFix] regsvr32 /s /n /i:u shell32 (User 'LOCAL SERVICE'))
O4 - HKUS\S-1-5-20\..\RunOnce: [ShowDeskFix] regsvr32 /s /n /i:u shell32 (User 'NETWORK SERVICE')
O4 - HKUS\S-1-5-18\..\RunOnce: [ShowDeskFix] regsvr32 /s /n /i:u shell32 (User 'SYSTEM')
O4 - HKUS\.DEFAULT\..\RunOnce: [ShowDeskFix] regsvr32 /s /n /i:u shell32 (User 'Default user')
O6 - HKCU\Software\Policies\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Restrictions present
O6 - HKCU\Software\Policies\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Control Panel present
O6 - HKCU\Software\Policies\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Toolbars\Restrictions present
O20 - Winlogon Notify: byXOfeeE - byXOfeeE.dll (file missing)

Now please close all open windows except HJT and press "Fix checked".

Step 3. Running MalwareByte's Anti-Malware

Please download Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware from Here or Here

Double Click mbam-setup.exe to install the application.

• Make sure a checkmark is placed next to Update Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware and Launch Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware, then click Finish.
• If an update is found, it will download and install the latest version.
• Once the program has loaded, select "Perform Quick Scan", then click Scan.
• The scan may take some time to finish,so please be patient.
• When the scan is complete, click OK, then Show Results to view the results.
• Make sure that everything is checked, and click Remove Selected.
• When disinfection is completed, a log will open in Notepad and you may be prompted to Restart.(See Extra Note)
• The log is automatically saved by MBAM and can be viewed by clicking the Logs tab in MBAM.
• Copy&Paste the entire report in your next reply.

Extra Note:
If MBAM encounters a file that is difficult to remove,you will be presented with 1 of 2 prompts,click OK to either and let MBAM proceed with the disinfection process,if asked to restart the computer,please do so immediatly.

Step 4. Deckards' System Scanner

Please download Deckard's System Scanner (DSS) and save it to your Desktop.

• Close all other windows before proceeding.
• Double-click on dss.exe and follow the prompts.
• When it has finished, dss will open two Notepads main.txt and extra.txt -- please copy (CTRL+A and then CTRL+C) and paste (CTRL+V) the contents of main.txt and extra.txt in your next reply.

Note:These logs may be too large to post in one reply, if so, please post extra.txt in a seperate reply.

In your next reply

Please post the log from Jotti or VirusTotal
Please post the log from MBAM.
Please post the log from Deckards' System Scanner (main & extra.txt)

If the logs are to big to fit in one reply please spread them out over multiple replies.

Hi Mike,

Thanks for sharing and spend some times in this topic.
Yes you're right about the delay. But unfortunately my friend not patient to wait another 12 hrs...LOL. And he is not using INTERMEDIANET fo his provider.

He already formated his laptop and switch to use Linux.

But Mike, thanks for sharing the Firewall links. I already advice him to use one of them.

Thanks & regards,
Faried

Well at least you know you are clean Thanks for letting me know.

The below steps have some important tips on how to stay safe and keep up-to-date, so be sure to read it!

Preventing future infection

Below I have included a number of recommendations for how to protect your computer in order to prevent future malware infections. Please take these recommendations seriously; these few simple steps can stave off the vast majority of spyware problems.

In order to protect yourself against spyware, you should consider installing and running the following free programs:

Spybot-Search & Destroy
A tutorial on using Spybot to remove spyware from your computer may be found here. Please also remember to enable Spybot's "Immunize" and "TeaTimer" features.

SpywareBlaster
A tutorial on using SpywareBlaster to prevent spyware from ever installing on your computer may be found here.

SpywareGuard
A tutorial on using SpywareGuard for realtime protection against spyware and hijackers may be found here.

IE-SPYAD puts over 5000 sites in your restricted zone so you'll be protected when you visit innocent-looking sites that aren't actually innocent at all.
http://www.spywarewa...uc/resource.htm

Make sure to keep these programs up-to-date and to run them regularly, as this can prevent a great deal of spyware hassle.

Please consider using an alternate browser. Mozilla's Firefox browser is fantastic; it is much more secure than Internet Explorer, immune to almost all known browser hijackers, and also has the best built-in popup blocker (as an added benefit!) that I have ever seen. If you are interested, Firefox may be downloaded from here:
http://www.mozilla.o...oducts/firefox/

Also make sure to run your antivirus software regularly, and to keep it up-to-date.

There are many programs that can be used for your protection, most falling within the three main categories of anti-virus, anti-spyware and firewall. Please be careful to never run more than one program of the same category in resident mode, as conflicts between the different programs can actually decrease your protection.

Please also read Tony Klein's excellent article: How I got Infected in the First Place

Hopefully this should take care of your problems! Good luck.
