[bpeacocke]

Hi there,
I have followed the instructions as per "before posting a Hijack This log" to the best of my ability. It has taken some time because as I am running all the various tools the malware renames key DLL's and other system files by adding a .tmp extension. It also removes files that it can. I am eventually reboot the system and to load a fresh installation of Win XP and to run a VBScript I have created to rename the .tmp extension files back to their original names and then to copy files found in SYSTEM32\DLLCACHE that are NOT now in SYSTEM32 up into system32. I am then able to work again.
When I ran the various Spyware/Antivirus/Trojan utilities a few things were found but rmoving these has not solved the problem.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Should I submit a hijackthis log?
Regards,
Bernard Peacocke

Yes please Bernard, submit a HJT log from normal mode and I'll take a look.

Hello Bernard and welcome to Geeks to Go

As an introduction, please note that I am not Superhuman, I do not know everything, but what I do know has taken me years to learn. I am happy to pass on this information to you, but please bear in mind that I am also fallible.

Please note that you should have Administrator rights to perform the fixes. Also note that multiple identity PC’s (family PC’s) present a different problem; please tell me if your PC has more than one individual’s setting, but continue with the fix.

Before we get underway, you may wish to print these instructions for easy reference during the fix, although please be aware that many of the required URLs are hyperlinks in the red names shown on your screen. Part of the fix may require you to be in Safe Mode, which will not allow you to access the internet, or my instructions!

You have quite a little malware visible in your HJT log, but nothing very malicious. Let’s see what we can do with the first sweep.

To start please download the following programmes, we will run them later. Please save them to a place that you will remember, I suggest the Desktop:

CCleaner
Ewido Security Suite

Install Ewido Security Suite.

• Install Ewido security suite
• When installing, under "Additional Options" uncheck..
  • Install background guard
  • Install scan via context menu
  • You will need to update Ewido to the latest definition files.
  • On the left hand side of the main screen click update.
  • Then click on Start Update.
• The update will start and a progress bar will show the updates being installed.
  (the status bar at the bottom will display "Update successful")

If you are having problems with the updater, you can use this link to manually update Ewido.
Ewido manual updates
Do NOT run a scan yet.

Next, please reboot your computer in Safe Mode by doing the following:
1) Restart your computer
2) After hearing your computer beep once during startup, but before the Windows icon appears, press F8.
3) Instead of Windows loading as normal, a menu should appear
4) Select the first option, to run Windows in Safe Mode.

For additional help in booting into Safe Mode, see the following site:

Safe Mode

Launch Ewido, there should be an icon on your desktop, double-click it.

• The programme will now open to the main screen.
• When you run Ewido for the first time, you will get a warning "Database could not be found!". Click OK.

Once the updates are installed do the following:

• Click on scanner
• Click on Complete System Scan and the scan will begin.
• You will be prompted to clean the first infection.
• Select "Perform action on all infections", then proceed.
• Once the scan has completed, there will be a button located on the bottom of the screen named Save report
• Click Save report.
  
• Save the report .txt file to your desktop and include it in your reply.

Now close Ewido security suite.

Please visit Kaspersky for an online scan. Please select extended in the scan settings to access this option, and you will find it to be the second option from the top.

There is almost certainly bound to be some junk (leftover bits and pieces) on your system that is doing nothing but taking up space. I would recommend that you run CCleaner. Install it, update it, check the default setting in the left-hand pane, ensure you uncheck old prefetch data found under the system tab, then click Analyze> Run Cleaner. You may be fairly surprised by how much it finds. Also click Issues then Scan for issues – fix selected issues

Post back a fresh HijackThis log (from normal mode) and I will take another look. (3 logs in total)

Please paste logs into this thread. You will see that many people read these threads to learn about their own problems.

Hi Phil,
Thanks for your comprehensive response to my pleas for help!
Awesome!
I have done as you have suggested and I am attaching the logs as requested.
Regards,
Bernard

Hello again Bernard

The logs look good and there is just some tidying up to do.

Is this your ISP: AFRINIC P.O. Box 2271 Cape Town 8000 ZA?

Firstly could you please disable Microsoft Antispyware from running during the fix, it may just hinder our attempts to change anything. Right click on the icon (looks like an archery target) in the task bar and click on Security Agents Status (Enabled) then click on Disable Real-time Protection. To re enable it, you follow the same steps but click on Enable Real-time Protection.

Rescan with HijackThis. Close all programmes leaving only HijackThis running. Place a checkmark or tick against the following:

R0 - HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main,Local Page =
R0 - HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main,Local Page =
O3 - Toolbar: ReGet Bar - {17939A30-18E2-471E-9D3A-56DD725F1215} - (no file)

Click on Fix Checked when finished and exit HijackThis.

Post back a fresh HijackThis log, from normal mode, and I will take another look.

Please just paste it into the thread; don't zip it since lots of people read these threads to learn about their own systems.

Hi Phil,

Firstly AFRINIC P.O. Box 2271 Cape Town 8000 ZA is NOT my ISP! Any reason why you asked?

Hello Bernard

Firstly let me explain about the clarification on your ISP. The 017 entries normally show me who is your ISP or Proxy server. Your browser start page is set to http://www.google.co.za/. From that I assume that you are in South Africa and the IP address I was getting was also in South Africa, hence the question.

The 017 entry is touchline.co.za and the old 017 entry of 152.111.35.5 (AFRINIC P.O. Box 2271 Cape Town 8000 ZA) has now disappeared, so I can probably assume it was the hijacker.

Now you have this entry :R1 - HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Internet Settings,ProxyOverride = *.ca.com;<local>

Which I believe is the result of W32/Mytob-CA and not eTrust Antivirus from CA

On that basis, I am going to recommend deleting that entry and the one for a proxy server. But before I do that, I want you to explore HijackThis and the way in which we restore a setting just in case I am wrong.

On the opening page of HJT, the third box from the top is the one marked "View the list of backups". If this is wrong, go there, click the box and highlight these entries and click restore.

Here's the fix:

Rescan with HijackThis. Close all programmes leaving only HijackThis running. Place a checkmark or tick against the following:

R1 - HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Internet Settings,ProxyServer = sit-firewall:8081
R1 - HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Internet Settings,ProxyOverride = *.ca.com;<local>

Click on Fix Checked when finished and exit HijackThis.

If you can correct me on my assumptions and tell me how the PC is behaving now, I'd appreciate it.

May I see a fresh HJT log following a reboot please.

Thanks.

Hi Phil,
Sadly, it now appears that my Hard Drive is stuffed. It wont boot on either of the XP installations I have. Whether this has been caused by the Virus or not - I'm not sure. Currently I am running a Hard Disk Fitness Test and it complains of bad sectors so I shall have to somehow fix those if possible before I continue with this exercise ..... I shall let you know progress.
Thanks for your help thus far!
Regards,
Bernard

Hello again Bernard

That's a tough break. It could be the result of viral activity or just the HDD failing; they are normally good for about 10,000 hours give or take.

In case you are wondering, nothing that I know we have done would cause such a disaster. HDD failures provide a variety of symptoms normally from random reboots to occasional non booting and eventual permanent nonboot.
