I have alcan p2p worm in my system (windows 2000). Adware SE personal dtected the worm and deleted some files but cannot remove the worm. I have winupdate.exe refusing to close when I shut down. My task manager is not usable. My Limewire starts up when I boot even though I had disabled the start application (in Limewire) on windows start up. I have dial connection and I think the worm starts the dial up persistently after start up I think. My Avast 4.6 Home version withe the latest definitions cannot (miserably) pick any trace of the worm.

Please assist to remove the worm

My log is below:

I thank you for getting back to me.

I looked at past cases in the Geekstogo forum and carried out the Hijackthis scan and carried out some deletions or fixing with Hijackthis. I also discovered I had the A4zeta beta 1 infection and I removed the value "O4 - HKCU\..\Run: [internat.exe] internat.exe" also with Hijack This. I deleted the winsupdate.exe and the winlog.exe files in the C\program files\ directory. However, I did not delete the internat.exe. Should I delete it?

My system I think is back to normal operation speed. My latest scan log is below. Please advise if my scan is healthy. Have I done enough, delete the wrong entries etc. Your assistance and feedback will be most approeciated.

Regards

There was no need to delete the internat line in HijackThis:

Application that provides multi-language support on keyboards for Microsoft Windows programs.
Visitor's assessment: 3.5 (Safe)


To restore the backups:
  • Open HiJackThis
  • Click on "View the list of Backups"
  • Place a check mark next to everything in that window
  • Click Restore
  • Click Yes
  • Reboot your computer
  • Fix these items again:
    O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [winsupdater] C:\Program Files\winsupdater\winsupdater.exe /auto
    O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [] winlog.exe
    O4 - HKLM\..\RunServices: [] winlog.exe
  • Then reboot your computer again and post a fresh HJT log!

  • 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 the Enter key.
Step #4

Find and delete these files and folders (if they are still there):

Unsuccessful.

The log is below:

Incident Status Location

Virus:W32/Gaobot.KGX.worm Reported

The Xoftspy (free to try) scan says I have the A4beta zeta1 worm and different to the panda scan.

Can you tell me how to identify the worms and delete them manually?

I removed the Gaobot worm actually with my Avast V4.6 Home Edition. A subsequent scan from the suggested download showed there is no Gaobot worm.

Later, I ran a scan with Xoftspy (free to try version without removal function) and it reported I have the A4zeta beta 1 worm. Again I removed internat.exe value in my register and a further Xoftspy did not show up the A4zeta beta 1 worm any more.

Otherwise, my machine is running well.

Please advise regarding the A4zeta beta 1 worm.

Thanks

Make sure all hidden files and folders are visible (Instructions )

Please go to this site: http://virusscan.jotti.org/
On top you'll find "File to upload and scan".
Browse to the next file, submit it on that site and let it scan:

C:\WINNT\system32\internat.exe

Several scanning engines will be used to check the file for any threats. Please post the results of the scans back here.

Xoftspy is an program that is open to debate! It is on Spyware Warrior's Rogue List
So it probably is an false positive.

I recommend to uninstall it:

Please click: Start--> Control Panel--> Add or Remove Programs--> Uninstall (if found) any instances of:
Xoftspy

Then reboot your computer.

  • This is a good time to set up protection against further attacks. Read the article behind this link "How did I get infected". If you don't already have them, you need an antivirus that is updated, a good firewall for example Kerio Personal Firewall or ZoneLabs Zone Alarm, a spyware blocker like SpywareBlaster and also IE-Spyads and spyware detection (Ad-aware SE and SpyBot S+D). All of these have good free versions available... be very cautious about any security software that advertises in popups or other intrusive ways, they are not only usually useless, but also often have malware in them....

    Instead of Internet Explorer, use a different browser like Opera, Mozilla or Firefox.

    Last, but not least, you need to keep Windows and Internet Explorer up to date by getting all the latest security patches that protects your computer.

    This can be accessed by going to http://windowsupdate.microsoft.com and following the prompts.

    Please post back if you are still having any problems....
