Well, It's almost deserted now after I've finished backing-up except when you ask me to do something on it. Besides I didn't actually start any new projects since I'm going to reformat anyway. Therefore, I'm not sure how exactly the computer is behaving. I uninstalled all my security apps since they are useless due to Sality, also in order not to interfere with any of the scans performed. I have no internet connection.. One more thing, I don't know if it's important or not, after couple of tries to boot from the Windows Recovery Console independent bootable cd I created, which didn't work, I found all my files in the recycle bin were gone.

I'm very worried about the stuff I backed-up in case this didn't work and how I'm going to disinfect them. What do you think? From all the logs I posted, is the situation promising or is it early to say?

My thanks to azarl for the cover and my apologies to you BonbonRose for not replying until now as I have only recently returned from a vacation. :)

Overall now I think it prudent you perform the reformat and reinstallation of the Windows Operating System then install all relivavet Service Packs and Critical Updates etc. The various issues you have mentioned should no longer be present afterwards. Now with regard to this you mentioned:-

What I advise you do here is before actually putting what was advised you could safely back up in prior posts is to install a Anti-Virus application on your machine after the reformat and reinstallation, use one only of the below...


Then what ever form of removible storage media your backups are on, either attach to your machine if a USB Drive or insert in the CD Drive for example...

Got to Start >> My Computer >> right click on the relevant media and select scan with what ever Ant-Virus application you chose to install.

Any questions feel free to ask, if not stay safe!

Welcome back Dakeyras,

I do understand what you are saying and I'm going to reformat, but I'm desperate and welling to try everything to save my files, before making that step. So I hope you would continue helping me with the infection-removal process that azarl and I were working on it.. Please.

Hi and thanks. :)

OK fair play and going back to something you mentioned in a prior post:-

Quote

I have no internet connection

Do you mean you have no active ISP(Internet Service Provider) and or the actual connection on the infected machine is now not working?

Hi. :)

OK try the below first to restore the Internet Connection:-

Click on Start >> Control Panel >> Internet Options >> Connections Tab >> Lan Settings > uncheck "use a proxy server" or reconfigure the Proxy server again in case you have set it previously. Now check if connectivity is restored.

If still not working download and transfer the following...WinSock XP Fix to your infected machine.

Double-click on winsockxpfix.exe >> Run program >> Fix

Let myself know the outcome of the above and we will go from there, thank you.

Hi,

Neither way worked. I forgot to say that the connection icon in the icon tray is not red "X", it looks like it's trying to connect (this small ball going from one computer to another); the status is "acquiring network adress" and in the local area connection (support tab) invalid IP address.

Hi. :)

Please reboot your machine then check if connectivity is restored.

If still not working create/run the below batch file please...

Custom Batch File:

  • Open Notepad.
  • Copy and Paste everything from the Quote Box(do not copy the word Quote) below into Notepad: <-- Start >> Run... type in notepad and select OK

Quote

@Echo off
pushd\windows\system32\drivers\etc
attrib -h -s -r hosts
echo 127.0.0.1 localhost>HOSTS
attrib +r +h +s hosts
popd
ipconfig /release
ipconfig /renew
ipconfig /flushdns
netsh winsock reset all
netsh int ip reset all
shutdown -r -t 1
del %0

  • Go to File >> Save As
  • Save File name as "Dakeyras.bat" <-- Make sure to include the quotes.
  • Change Save as Type to All Files and save the file to your Desktop.
  • It should look like this: Posted Image

Now double click on the desktop Dakeyras.bat to run the batch file. It will self-delete when completed.

Note: Your machine should automatically reboot. If it does not, reboot your machine manually.
