Hi Hotwater9,

I want to follow the following instructions. Please print a copy of these instructions or copy them into a text file on your desktop for easy accessibility.

Please download the trial version of Ewido Security Suite here:
http://www.ewido.net/en/download/
Install it, and update the definitions to the newest files. Do NOT run a scan yet.

Please download Nailfix from here:
http://www.noidea.us...050515010747824
Unzip it to the desktop but please do NOT run it yet.

Next, please reboot your computer in Safe Mode by doing the following:
1) Restart your computer
2) After hearing your computer beep once during startup, but before the Windows icon appears, press F8.
3) Instead of Windows loading as normal, a menu should appear
4) Select the first option, to run Windows in Safe Mode.

For additional help in booting into Safe Mode, see the following site:
http://www.pchell.co.../safemode.shtml
Once in Safe Mode, please double-click on Nailfix.cmd. Your desktop and icons will disappear and reappear, and a window should open and close very quickly --- this is normal.

Then please run Ewido, and run a full scan. Save the logfile from the scan.

Next please run HijackThis, click Scan, and check:

F2 - REG:system.ini: Shell=Explorer.exe C:\WINDOWS\Nail.exe

Close all open windows except for HijackThis and click Fix Checked.

Restart your computer in normal mode and please post a new HijackThis log, as well as the log from the Ewido scan.

[hotwater9]

Thanks for your reply. I downloaded ewido yesterday and it was able to remove nail.exe I have not had any more problems!!

[tampabelle]

Hi Hotwater,

Can you post a fresh Hijack This log ??

We can then verify that all infections have been removed.

Thanx

[hotwater9]

So am I clean? Do I need to do anything else?

Hi Hotwater,

Looks like some of the files pertaining to the infection have been taken care of but a lot of entries need to be cleaned up. This should be done quickly. Doing this in the suggested way would enable us to remove the infection completely and clean up the PC completely.


Please download Nailfix from here:
http://www.noidea.us...050515010747824
Unzip it to the desktop but please do NOT run it yet.

Next, please reboot your computer in Safe Mode by doing the following:
1) Restart your computer
2) After hearing your computer beep once during startup, but before the Windows icon appears, press F8.
3) Instead of Windows loading as normal, a menu should appear
4) Select the first option, to run Windows in Safe Mode.

For additional help in booting into Safe Mode, see the following site:
http://www.pchell.co.../safemode.shtml

Once in Safe Mode, please double-click on Nailfix.cmd. Your desktop and icons will disappear and reappear, and a window should open and close very quickly --- this is normal.

Then please run Ewido, and run a full scan. Save the logfile from the scan.

Next please run HijackThis, click Scan, and check, if found:

F2 - REG:system.ini: Shell=Explorer.exe C:\WINDOWS\Nail.exe

Close all open windows except for HijackThis and click Fix Checked.

Restart your computer in normal mode and please post a new HijackThis log, as well as the log from the Ewido scan.


We will figure out how to best clean up subsequently depending on how the logs look. Thanx once again for your patience.

Hi Hotwater,

Your HJT log looks much better and the Ewido log shows that there is no infection now on your PC.

We need to just clean up a few entries in Hijack This. Run Hijack This to fix the following entries -

O2 - BHO: Band Class - {01F44A8A-8C97-4325-A378-76E68DC4AB2E} - C:\WINDOWS\systb.dll (file missing)
O3 - Toolbar: (no name) - {2CDE1A7D-A478-4291-BF31-E1B4C16F92EB} - (no file)
O23 - Service: SNMP Trap Service (SNMPTRAP) - Unknown owner - C:\WINDOWS\system32\snmptrap.exe (file missing)

Please close all windows except Hijack This. Check the boxes next to above items and click on Fix Checked.

I notice from your Hijack This log that you dont have any anti-virus program installed on your PC and therefore you are vulnerable to virus attacks.

I strongly recommend that you get some anti-virus protection. One of the anti-virus program that I would recommend is
AVG Anti-Virus --- http://free.grisoft.com/freeweb.php --- a freeware.

Download it and install it on your PC. Please note - just use one anti-virus program as multiple such programs can cause conflict between themselves and severly hamper the performance of your PC.

Post a fresh Hijack This log and we will confirm that your PC is clean and well protected.

Thanks for following up AGAIN! Any idea on how I got Aurora on my system? I am very careful about what I load on my computer and what I click on when surfing the internet. Here is my new log.

Hi Hotwater,

You need to take care of more more thing. Click on Start ---> Run. Type Services.msc and click OK. A program window will open. Scroll down and locate the file snmptrap. Right Click on that file and then click on properties. In Start Type choose the option disable.

You still havent installed an anti-virus program. This would leave would vulnerable to infections which could also corrupt data and files on your PC. Ewido is only an anti-spyware and not a anti-virus program. I would urge you to download and install AVG Anti-Virus --- http://free.grisoft.com/freeweb.php --- which is a freeware (i.e. it is free).

As for the reasons why your PC got infected, I would ask you to see TonyKlein's good advice
So how did I get infected in the first place? and AntiSpyware Net's spyware article: Spyware, Adware, Malware: What it is, how it got on my computer, how to get rid of it, and how to prevent it.


PREVENTIVE MEASURES FOR FUTURE
You should take these steps to ensure that your system remains clean.

Operating System
1. Keep the Windows and Internet Explorer updated with the latest fixes. These fixes are available free from Microsoft. Click on Tools in the IE menu bar and then on Windows update. You can also the following links

Windows security and critical updates
Internet Explorer security and critical updates

Also ensure that automatic updates are enabled for faster updation of the system.
(Right click on My Computer on your desktop, properties and Automatic Updates tab.

Anti-Virus Software
2. Keep your Anti-virus program updated with the latest definitions. Some of the common anti-virus programs in use are :

Norton Anti-Virus
McAfee Anti-Virus
AVG Anti-Virus --- freeware
Avast Home Edition --- freeware

Use only one anti-virus program as multiple such programs can create conflicts between themselves and severely hamper the performance of your PC.

Firewall
3. You should also have a good firewall. Here are 3 free ones available for personal use:
Sygate Personal Firewall, Kerio Personal Firewall, ZoneAlarm

Internet Browsers
4. Have robust explorer settings. It is preferable to use an internet browser other that IE as most of the malware is targetted at IE. In case you prefer to use IE, then download a list of innocent looking but harmful websites from IE-Spyad and install it on ur PC. IE-SPYAD puts over 5000 sites in your internet explorer's restricted zone, so you'll be protected when you visit innocent-looking sites that aren't really innocent at all.

Some alternate browsers I suggest are Firefox Mozilla Browser and Opera

Ensure that Security level, irrespective of whichever browser you use, is set at Medium or higher, restrict the usage of cookies and activeX components.

Spyware Protection
5. Have a wall of protection against spyware / adware by installing SpywareBlaster and SpywareGuard.

SpywareBlaster and SpywareGuard are by JavaCool and both are free programs.
SpywareBlaster will prevent spyware from being installed and consumes no system resources.
SpywareGuard offers realtime protection from spyware installation and browser hijack attempts. Both have free ongoing updates.

Spyware Removers
6. Install programs for scanning for malware and uninstalling them. Two of the best programs, both are freeware, are :

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 SE Personal Edition - Another very powerful tool which searches and kills nasties that infect your system. AdAware and Spybot Search & Destroy compliment each other very well.

Regular Maintenance of PC
7. Finally, invest some time for regular maintenance of your PC. Delete the temporary Internet files, temporary files, cookies etc. Click on Start button, Programs, Accessories, System Tools and run the program Disk Cleanup. Follow the instructions.

An alternate freeware software which can be used is CleanUp.

Keep your Registry clean. My favourite software is Registry First Aid. This is not a freeware but a trial version can be downloaded.

System Restore Points
8. Since your PC is currently clean, create a system restore point. A system restore would enable you to revert to the settings on the PC when the restore point was created. It is also a good idea to flush all earlier system restore points which may be containing infected files.

A. 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.

B. Restart your computer.

C. 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.

System Restore will now be active again.
Go ahead and enjoy a clean PC !!!!!!!!!!!!!

Hi Hotwater,

Your PC is now clean.

Remember the preventive steps I told you, those steps would help minimise the chances of infection on your PC. You can copy those instructions and save them in a file for future use.

As to how you got infected, most of the times, spyware gets bundled with some genuine looking software. So while you would have never downloaded Nai.exe, it would have been downloaded as part of another application and gotten installed sunsequently. Take care of your surfing habits and what you download and install from the internet.
