Hi pseuclid,

We need to do the Killbox thing again. The file list is the same as the earlier one but this needs to be done
  • Please reboot into Safe Mode by restarting your computer and pressing F8 as your computer is booting up. Then select the Safe Mode option.
  • Once in Safe Mode, please run Killbox.
  • Click "Replace on Reboot" and check the "Use Dummy" box.
  • Paste the following into the top "Full Path of File to Delete" box.
    • C:\WINDOWS\System32\QOOL.EXE
  • Click the red-and-white "Delete File".
  • Click "Yes" at the Replace on Reboot prompt.
  • Click "No" at the Pending Operations prompt.
  • Repeat steps 3-7 above for these files:
    • C:\WINDOWS\System32\QOOL.EXE
    • C:\WINDOWS\System32\WMCONFIG.CPL
    • C:\WINDOWS\System32\RAURRV.EXE
    • C:\WINDOWS\System32\PBOPPZB.DLL
    • C:\WINDOWS\System32\SUPDATE.DLL
    • C:\WINDOWS\System32\__DELE~1.DLL
    • C:\WINDOWS\System32\CQDCCBQ.EXE
  • Click "Replace on Reboot" and check the "Use Dummy" box.
  • Paste the following file into the top "Full Path of File to Delete" box.
    • C:\WINDOWS\System32\REDIT.CPL
  • Click the red-and-white "Delete File" button.
  • Click "Yes" at the Replace on Reboot prompt.
  • Click "Yes" at the Pending Operations prompt to restart your computer. You do not need to reboot into Safe Mode this time.
  • When your computer reboots, please run Find-Qoologic2.bat again and post the new log here along with a HJT log.

I reran Killbox. The program seemed to recognize all the entries except

C:\WINDOWS\System32\__DELE~1.DLL

Also, after clicking the red-and white “Delete File” button, the first prompt is

“All listed Files will be Deleted on Next Reboot prompt”

and not “Replace on Reboot.” I have clicked “yes” to these and “no” to the Pending Operations prompt except for the very last one, as you instructed.

Posted below are the logs from Find-Qoologic2.bat and HJT. Thanks.

Tampabelle,

I have been posting all that appears in the file of Find-Qoologic2.bat.

Thanks for the detailed instructions of how to proceed. I shall act on these later this evening and post the logs here. I hope that this time Ewido completes its scan so that I have a log to post.

Again, thanks a lot.

Tampabelle,

Here is what I have.

In Safe Mode, I ran CWShredder, but it found nothing objectionable.

Then I ran Hijack This and fixed all the files that you listed in your last message.

Next I opened Add/Remove and found two of the listed programs, Windows AFA Internet Enhancement and Wintools, which I removed.

I then sought the rogue files listed by you in item 4. I found the following three folders, only, and deleted them:
C:\Program Files\Toolbar
C:\Program Files\Web Offer
C:\Program Files\Common Files\Win Tools

I found three files, only and deleted them
C:\WINDOWS\VCMnet11
oletsrv.exe
pcdmdlg.exe

The last two files were found in the System 32 folder

In C:\Program Files, I also found the following five folders. Should I delete them?
eZula
sf
Surf Side Kick 3
VBouncer
WeirdOnTheWeb

The I ran Ewido. Alas, the program closed down yet again just before ending and leaving me with no scan report to post. It found some 140 or so files.

I rebooted in Normal Mode and ran Find-Qoologic2.bat and HJT, the logs of which are posted below. I get no more from Find-Qoologic2.bat than what I am posting.

I have not been running any of these programs as the Administrator. Does that matter? I never log onto my computer as the Administrator.

As always, thanks a lot.





PLEASE NOTE THAT ALL FILES FOUND BY THIS METHOD ARE NOT BAD FILES, There WILL be LEGIT FILES LISTED PLEASE BE CAREFUL WHILE FIXING. IF YOU ARE UNSURE OF WHAT IT IS LEAVE THEM ALONE.
some examples are MRT.EXE NTDLL.DLL.

Hi pseuclid,

It is best that you are logged in as adminstrator while carrying out all the fixes. This ensures that infections are removed from all profiles.

Please print these instructions or copy them into a text file on your desktop for easy accesssibility.

1. Remove infections


Please reboot the PC in safe Mode. In add or remove programs these items may be listed -

eZula
sf
Surf Side Kick 3
VBouncer
WeirdOnTheWeb
Delfin


Please uninstall them.

Make sure that all system files and hiddden files are visible. In windows explorer, click on Tools ---> folder options ---> View Tab.

Make sure that the following items are checked -
Display the contents of System folder
Show hidden files and folders

Make sure that the following items are unchecked -
Hide protected operating system files (recommended)



Delete the following files and folders -

Folders
adware filter <---------- on your desktop
C:\Program Files\adwarefilter
C:\Program Files\adwarefiltertoolbar
C:\Program Files\spyassassin
C:\Program Files\Common Files\adware filter
C:\Program Files\eZula
C:\Program Files\sf
C:\Program Files\Surf Side Kick 3
C:\Program Files\VBouncer
C:\Program Files\WeirdOnTheWeb
C:\Program Files\Delfin
C:\Windows\system32\picsvr
C:\Windows\system32\nsvsvcl
C:\Windows\system32\vmss
C:\Windows\system32\wsxsvc
C:\Windows\system32\nsvsvc\nsvsvc.exe
C:\Windows\system32\pgtools

Files
C:\WINDOWS\system32\n.dll
C:\WINDOWS\system32\stub.exe
C:\WINDOWS\sfita.exe
D0CE0C16B1.dll

Reboot the PC in Normal mode. Please ensure that system files are hidden by reversing the earlier steps.

2. Run Hijack This

Run Hijack This and click on config ---> Misc Tools.

Click on "Delete an NT Service". In the box type "TBPSSvc" -without quotes - and hit OK.
Repeat the process with "WinToolsSvc". Close Hijack This

Run Hijack This again. Click scan and check the boxes next to following items -

O23 - Service: WebSeach Toolbar support NT service (TBPSSvc) - Unknown owner - C:\PROGRA~1\Toolbar\TBPSSvc.exe (file missing)
O23 - Service: WinTools for IE service (WinToolsSvc) - Unknown owner - C:\Program Files\Common Files\WinTools\WToolsS.exe (file missing)


Close all windows other than Hijack This and click on Fix checked.


3. Online scans

Please visit these sites and do online scans with both of them -

Post the logs from the online scans and a fresh HJT log here.

Tampabelle,

I followed your most recent instructions with some success, but not total success, as you will see.

In Safe Mode, I removed the items from your first list (1. Remove infections), finding all but Delfin from the first list, but only some from the second list.

I rebooted in Normal mode and ran Hijack This. I was unable to delete “TBPSSvc” and “WinToolsSvc” because when I tried to do it, I received a message that the services were enabled or running. I went to the Services section of Administrative Tools, but could take no action because they were not running according to Services.

I re-ran Hijack This and deleted the new two files, to little avail as you will see.

Then I moved to the online scans. Trendmicro found 29 Trojans but did not provide me with an opportunity, as far as I could tell, to obtain a log.

Panda found some 67 culprits, the log for which is posted below. And below that is the latest Hijack This log.

Is there any good news? Well, perhaps a little. So far today I have seen no pop up ads, and Ewido, which I presume is running in the background as it has since I downloaded it, has not spotted anything—unlike yesterday.

Obviously the problem is not yet solved, as the logs below attest.

Thanks for all the help, and I would be grateful for any further suggestions.

Hi pseuclid,

My jaw dropped when I saw all those 67 files listed by Panda !!!!!!!

Lets do some work.

I got you another link from where u can download Service Pack 1a. http://www.microsoft...p1/network.mspx.

Please install SP1a. It will provide some degree of protection to your PC.



Download and install CleanUp! Here
We will use this program later.

Download LQfix Here
Unzip the file and save the extracted file to your desktop, please do not use yet

Click this link to be sure you can view hidden files.

Reboot into safe mode.

Restart your computer and as soon as it starts booting up again continuously tap F8. A menu should come up where you will be given the option to enter Safe Mode.

double click on LQFix program u downloaded.
A doswindow will open and close again, this is normal.

Please remove the following folders using Windows Explorer (if present):

C:\WINDOWS\EliteToolBar[/b]

Run the program CleanUp!

Reboot in normal mode. Ensure you rehide your “hidden files and folders” back to the way they were.

Run Hijack This and Post a fresh log here. Please also let me know how your PC is running !!!!!

OK, Tampabelle, will do. I've manually removed about 90% of the files listed by Panda.

Hi PSeuclid,

there r some programs which would take care of a lot of the bad files.

Also some of the files may be critical to the operation of windows and may just be infected.

So just follow my lead
