[mrzippo]

Thanks for taking the time to check this out

I have been dealing with this infection for about 1 month now, and no one has been able to resolve this.

I know a lot about this from trying to clean it up, but nothing I try works... My computer is going crazy, programs are crashing constantly. And I'm getting error messages that I should not be seeing.

I'll jsut start off by leaving this HJT log for you, although I can pretty much already pinpoint the problems in it. But I'll just wait to see what you guys have to say.

Shortmedia.com has been taking ages to help me. I get a response from them about once a week and I'm kinda fed up with it, even though its free. They must be inundated with a workload of unimaginable proportions. Thanks again guys.



And I have run every program in the book (as listed in your intro to the forum)

The object of the post was mostly to get you to move your HJT program and its backups to a safer location, which it acconplished. That post is standard when HJT is running from the wrong location.

Here is another Standard Post when logs denote the presence of Aurora/Nail infection:

BEFORE BEGINNING, Please read completely through the instructions below and download the files from the links provided. You may want to save or print out these instructions for easier reference.

1. Download Ewido Security Suite.

2. Download Lavasoft's Ad-Aware and the VX2 Cleaner Plug-in.

• Install Ad-Aware using the default options.
• Then install vx2cleaner_inst.exe, using all the defaults there as well.

3. Run Ad-Aware

• Update to the latest definitions
• Then click on Add-ons in the lefthand column.
• Select VX2 Cleaner V2.0 and click Run Tool. Click "OK".
• If something is found, click "Clean" as in the directions given.
• Click "Close", and EXIT Ad-Aware.

4. Reboot your PC and run Ad-Aware again.

• This time, click on the Start button in Ad-Aware
• Select "Perform smart system scan" and click Next.
• Once the scan finishes, click "Next" again.
• Select all objects found ("right click anywhere in the list of found objects and click "Select All Objects").
• Click "Next" one more time, then "OK" to confirm the removal.
• You will be prompted to set Ad-Aware to run on reboot, click "OK".
• Exit Ad-Aware
• REBOOT your PC
• When Ad-Aware starts up, click on "Start", then "Next".
• Follow the steps above if anything is found, or click "Finish", then EXIT Ad-Aware.

5. For a final cleanup, please install and run Ewido.

• When installing, under "Additional Options" uncheck "Install background guard" and "Install scan via context menu".
• When you run ewido for the first time, you may get a warning "Database could not be found!". Click OK. We will fix this in a moment.
• From the main ewido screen, click on update in the left menu, then click the Start update button.
• After the update finishes (the status bar at the bottom will display "Update successful")
• Click on the Scanner button in the left menu, then click on Complete System Scan. This scan can take quite a while to run.
• If ewido finds anything, it will pop up a notification. We have been finding some cases of false positives with the new version of Ewido, so we need to step through the fixes one-by-one. If Ewido finds something that you KNOW is legitimate (for example, parts of AVG Antivirus, pcAnywhere and the game "Risk" have been flagged), select "none" as the action. DO NOT check "Perform action with all infections". If you are unsure of an entry, select "none" for the time being. I'll see that in the log you will post later and let you know if ewido needs to be run again.
• When the scan finishes, click on "Save Report". This will create a text file. Make sure you know where to find this file again.

6. Please finish up by rebooting your system once more, and posting a new HijackThis log and the log from the Ewido scan.

Regards,

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.

• 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
• Please RUN HijackThis.
  . Click the SCAN button to produce a log.
  
  
• Place a check mark beside each one of the following items:
  
  O9 - Extra button: (no name) - {85d1f590-48f4-11d9-9669-0800200c9a66} - %windir%\bdoscandel.exe (file missing)
  O9 - Extra 'Tools' menuitem: Uninstall BitDefender Online Scanner v8 - {85d1f590-48f4-11d9-9669-0800200c9a66} - %windir%\bdoscandel.exe (file missing)
  O18 - Filter: text/html - {8293D547-38DD-4325-B35A-F1817EDFA5FC} - (no file)
  
  
• 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.
  
  
• 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:\WINDOWS\system32\bFs.dll
  
  
• 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 everything looks now.

Regards,

Trevuren

Your log looks good. If you have no more malware-related problems that you are aware of, just give me the OK and we can start the final but essential cleanup procedures.

A-OK

Thanks a lot! I just ran a smart scan with ad-aware... It picked up a total of 0 objects.

Thanks a lot!!!

Congratulations, your log shows that your SYSTEM IS CLEAN

There are a few things you must do once you are completely clean:

1. Re-hide your System Files and Folders to prevent any future accidents.

Reconfigure Windows XP to hide hidden files:

• Click Start. Open My Computer.
• Select the Tools menu and click Folder Options. Select the View Tab.
  
• Under the Hidden files and folders heading deselect "Show hidden files and folders".
• Check the "Hide protected operating system files (recommended)" option.
• Click Yes to confirm. Click OK.

2. Reset and Re-enable your System Restore to remove bad files from the backup that Windows makes as no program is able to clean those files:

TO DISABLE SYSTEM RESTORE

• Right-click "My Computer", and then left click "Properties".
• Left click on "System Restore Tab"
• Check box beside "Turn Off System Restore"
• Left click on "Apply"

TO ENABLE SYSTEM RESTORE

• Remove check mark from "Turn Off System Restore"
• Click on "Apply"

Here are some tips to reduce the potential for spyware infection in the future:

Make sure you keep your Windows OS current by visiting Windows update
regularly to download and install any critical updates and service packs. With out these you are leaving the backdoor open.

I strongly recommend installing the following applications:

• Spywareblaster <= SpywareBlaster will prevent spyware from being installed.
• Spywareguard <= SpywareGuard offers realtime protection from spyware installation attempts.
• How to use Ad-Aware to remove Spyware <= If you suspect that you have spyware installed on your computer, here are instructions on how to download, install and then use Ad-Aware.
• How to use Spybot to remove Spyware <= If you suspect that you have spyware installed on your computer, here are instructions on how to download, install and then use Spybot. Similar to Ad-Aware, I strongly recommend both to catch most spyware.

To protect yourself further:

• Spyad <= IE/Spyad places over 4000 websites and domains in the IE Restricted list which will severely impair attempts to infect your system. It basically prevents any downloads (Cookies etc) from the sites listed, although you will still be able to connect to the sites.
• MVPS Hosts file <= The MVPS Hosts file replaces your current HOSTS file with one containing well know ad sites etc. Basically, this prevents your coputer from connecting to those sites by redirecting them to 127.0.0.1 which is your local computer
• Google Toolbar <= Get the free google toolbar to help stop pop up windows.

And also see TonyKlein's good advice
So how did I get infected in the first place? (My Favorite)

I mean to mention this earlier... I just checked my task manager and that still seems to be screwed up...

There are no tabs or option in my task manager like there use to be. Am I still infected?

And is ViewPoint manager Adware/spyware?

Viewpoint: On systems not running aim, I like to suggest that the user remove the program. It has usually been installed without their consent and eventhough they say that no personal info is retransmitted, I consider it an invasion of privacy.

However, it appears that it is required for Aim to run properly when it was installed by Aim. On those systems we have decided that it should be left. I have removed a couple causing system crashes. No thanks.

I'll get back to you with the rest. No your system is not infected but the infection did some dammage.

Ok yeah take your time and get back to me whenever you can. Thanks for your time.


just two questions for you to check out when you get back.

So your saying it is not possible to get rid of Viewpoint and have AIM? Is there an alternative to AIM and still be able to communicate with buddies? And could viewpoint be hurting my system?


the other is. I have noticed that I have severe low performance on my system still. Which leades me to believe that the infection has done permanent damage?

And these errors have been popping up when I start my computer (and after AIM loads). I started a thread in a different section about it, but would like to see what you think. The first post in the thread has a picture of the error messages.

Stay with that Forum because that is where I was sending you anyhow

I do malware but not system repair "per se". Viewpoint is not hurting your system.

The only thing I can recommend is a simple form of system repair. If this doesn't work, leave your problem with the experts in the Windows Forum.
You are not supposed to have 2 threads on the go at the same time. Bad

1. Please go to Start -> Run -> type cmd and press Enter.

2. At the command prompt type sfc /scannow, making sure to put a space between the "c" and the slash, and then press Enter. This will run the System File Checker.

3. Follow the prompts, and insert your Windows installation CD if requested.

4. Then please REBOOT your computer.


Oh, before you do that, try doubleclicking the top part of the Task Manager miniwindow. There are reported cases of this bringing the top back into view.

Regards, and good luck in the Windows Forum

[mrzippo]

Yeah two threads at once = bad... I apologize.

But on the up side. Double clicking the top worked! Ahaha... THANK YOU SO MUCH!

So I didn't run that CMD scan, And I don't have my Windows CDs on me at the moment anyway so I guess that owuldn't work. But would that help fix my computer anymore?

So I guess everything here is wrapped up? I'm going to run ALL of my spyware/virus detection software once more and assuming that all goes well I guess we are done? Is there any permanent damage I should check and try to fix?

Your help has been invaluable and above and beyond anything I have recieved anywhere. You make my School's IT department look like a bunch of primates. And you did it all through a forum!
