[Ray P]

My computer was infected with what appears to be the foll. spyware/viruses - bloodhound.w32.ep and trojan.spy.html.smitfraud.c. My home page has been hijacked and I get the intermittent pop-ups.

I have gone thru the instructions and posted the HJT log below. Any help with this will be much appreciated.

Thanks, Ray P

Hi Ray P and welcome to the Geeks to Go Forums.

My name is Trevuren and I will be helping you with your log.

1. Go to Geeks to Go
. Click on My Controls at the top right hand corner of the window. (make sure you have signed in first)
. In the left hand column, click "View Topics"
. If you click on the title of your post, you will be taken there

2. Also, while at the My Controls page, check the box to the right of your post and then scroll down.
.Where it says "unsubscribe" click the pull-down menu and select "immediate email notification"

3. *We can definitely help you, but first you need to help us. The first step in this process is to apply Service Pack 1a for Windows XP. Without this update, you're wide open to re-infection, and we're both just wasting our time. DO NOT UPGRADE TO SP2 AT THIS TIME

*Click HEREfor the update.

*Apply the update, reboot, and post a fresh Hijack This log.


Regards,

Trevuren

Hi Trevuren,

Thanks for the response. I tried to install XP SP 1a but got an error:
"The file c:\windows\system32\wininet.dll is open or in use by another application. Close all apps and then retry."
However when I retry this error message pops up again.

Please repost a fresh HJT log and we will try and work around it for the time being.

1. Download CWShredder

If you are using anything other than Windows xp you may need a zip program.
Please download the evaluation version of Winzip.


2. Download SpSeHjfix.zip to the desktop.

• Then right click on the desktop and select new >folder, name it spfix
• Unzip SpSeHjfix.zip into the new folder.

3. Disconnect from the net and Close ALL OPEN PROGRAMS.

• Run 'SpSeHjfix'. and click on "Start Disinfection".
• When it's finished it will reboot your machine to finish the cleaning process.
• The tool creates a log of the fix which will appear in the folder.

If it doesn't find any of the SE files or any hidden reinstallers it will say system clean and not go on to next stage.

4. Once it is finished, run CWShredder - Hit The FIX button!

5. Reboot and post a new HJT log and the log that was created by 'SpSeHjfix'.

Warning Note: On a few occasions it has been reported that after using the SPSEHjfix you cannot open Internet Explorer. To fix this, go into Control Panel >Internet Options >Programs & press reset web settings, then you can set your home page to what you want on the general tab.

Regards,

Please print out or copy this page to Notepad. Make sure to work through the fixes in the exact order in which they are mentioned below. If there's anything that you don't understand, ask your question(s) before proceeding with the fixes.

First we need to make all files and folders VISIBLE:

Go to start>control panel>folder options>view (tab)
*choose to "show hidden files and folders,"
*uncheck the "hide protected operating system files" and the "hide extensions for know file types" boxes.
*Close the window with ok
*All hidden files will now be visible

Please RUN HijackThis.
. Click the SCAN button to produce a log.

Place a check mark beside each one of the following items:

R0 - HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main,Start Page =
R0 - HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main,Start Page =
R0 - HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Search,SearchAssistant =
O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [intel32.exe] C:\WINDOWS\System32\intel32.exe
O4 - Global Startup: hp center UI.lnk = C:\Program Files\hp center\137903\Shadow\ShadowBar.exe
O4 - Global Startup: hp center.lnk = C:\Program Files\hp center\137903\Program\BackWeb-137903.exe

Now with all the items selected, and all windows closed except for HJT, delete them by clicking the FIX checked button. Close the HijackThis window and Reboot Your System in Safe Mode

How to use the F8 method to Start Your Computer in Safe Mode

*Restart the computer.
*as soon as BIOS is loaded begin tapping the F8 key until the Advanced Options menu appears.
*Use the arrow keys to select the Safe mode menu item
*press Enter.


Using Windows Explorer, locate the following files/folders, and DELETE them (if they are present):

C:\Program Files\hp center\137903<===Folder and content
C:\WINDOWS\System32\intel32.exe

Exit Explorer, and REBOOT BACK INTO NORMAL MODE

Finally, RUN Hijackthis again and produce a new HJT log. Post it in the forum so we can check how everytjhing looks now.

Regards,

Trevuren

[Ray P]

Here is the HJT log after I ran the FIX on the items that were listed in your msg. Also in the Safe mode I deleted the C:\Program Files\hp center\137903<===Folder and content and C:\WINDOWS\System32\intel32.exe.

The intel32.exe file did not get deleted and still shows up.

There is a file in your log of which I am unsure and of which there exists very little informatiion. For that reason, I need you to submit it to Jotti's for analysis.

1. Click HERE to get to Jotti's site.

2. At the top of the Jotti window, use the Browse button to locate the following file on your system:

C:\WINDOWS\System32\intel32.exe

3. Once you have located the file, click SUBMIT and the content of the file will be uploaded by the site and analysed.

4. Please provide me with the results of the analysis.

Regards,

Trevuren

[Trevuren]

Please print out or copy this page to Notepad. Make sure to work through the fixes in the exact order in which they are mentioned below. If there's anything that you don't understand, ask your question(s) before proceeding with the fixes.

Download Killbox here: http://www.downloads...org/KillBox.exe and put it on your desktop

Open Killbox

Check the following boxes:

Standard File Kill
End Explorer Shell While Killing file

Copy & paste the full path of the file below into the Killbox topmost box.

C:\WINDOWS\System32\intel32.exe

With the full path to the file name in the topmost textbox, Click the Red X ...and for the confirmation message that will appear, you will need to click Yes

It may not delete.

If it doesn't delete, use killbox to delete the file you were not able to delete as follows:

Open Killbox

Check the following boxes:

Delete on Reboot

With the full path to the file name in the topmost textbox. Click the Red X ...and for the confirmation message that will appear, you will need to click Yes

A second message will ask to Reboot now? you will need to click YES

Note: Killbox will let you know if the file does not exist.

After the reboot scan with hijackthis and fix the following if they are still listed

O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [intel32.exe] C:\WINDOWS\System32\intel32.exe

Reboot and Post a new hijackthis log.

NOTE: This process often needs to be repeated 3-5 times before it becomes effective.

Regards,

Trevuren

[Ray P]

I ran the Killbox.exe and tried both options multiple times (at least 7 or 8 times) to delete the rogue file C:\WINDOWS\System32\intel32.exe

The first time it said the file was deleted but the virus message has still not gone from the desktop and Norton AV still keeps popping up with the message that it found a virus:
Object Name: C:\WINDOWS\System32\wininet.dll
Virus Name: W32. Desktophijack (this name changes at times)
Action Taken: Unable to repair this file

Pls see HJT file below:
