Scratching my head, can't find Malware in my PC

Unread postby spankyjo54 » December 25th, 2008, 7:43 pm

Sorry for the long response. I almost got to spend Christmas in the hospital with my son who became very ill and had to have surgery. He is home now and we got here last night.
OK. I did do the Jotti thing, it did a scan and found nothing. sooooo, I guess I am looking for something that is not there. Nothing new for me. Thanks for your help though. My PC seems to be working fine. I will worry about problems as they arise. I did get "Viper" by Sunbelt and really like it. I have it set to the hilt so, if anything gets through, it will be an unknown infection or new enough that Sunbelt does not have the cure yet.
Thanks, A Barton

Here you go. All the dirty little critters in my PC. I will quarantine them as of now until you get back to me. I knew that Win web was still in my system somewhere and the first time I scanned with Mal-ware it couldn't find it. Looks like the updates caught up with it and got into its hiding space. I think those files I am going to delete for sure. That Pop up Piece of crap about drove me crazy. Try to get some work done and there it is, popping up constantly and trying to scare me into paying them for a bogus piece of software. I just don't have a clue where I got it. I had just Format and reloaded so I had to have gotten it off the net on a web page somewhere because I had not started downloading anything but my MS updates when it showed up. Tricky little piece of annoyance anyhow!!!! And I did have my antivirus up and running at the time too, but was not happy it didn't catch it so bought a different one that I am (so far) very happy with.
Thanks. spankyjo54 :D

Hello spnkyjo54,

And I did have my antivirus up and running at the time too, but was not happy it didn't catch it so bought a different one that I am (so far) very happy with

Anti-virus only cannot protect you from all malware. It works purely on virusses.

You need also a good Anti-Spyware program which you can run on demand.
(I will propose some when we are done, after i am sure you are clean)

Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware is a very good program, i suggest you keep it, and you can have the paid version if you like. It does a very good work with removing infections.

Avoid using P2P programs, and surfing at suspicious sites, clicking on suspicious links, opening email from unknown persons, etc will for sure protect you in future.

Practice safe surfing in the net it's on the best of your pc.
----------------------------------------------
Disable Windows Defender until the computer is clean
Windows Defender normally provides real-time protection from spyware, however it may interfere with what we need to do. We will disable it until the machine is clean when it can be re-enabled.

  • Open Windows Defender
  • Select Tools and then General Settings
  • Under Real Time Protection Options uncheck Turn on real-time protection
  • Select Save
Don't forget to re-enable it, when your computer is clean.
----------------------------------------------
You didn't follow exactly this part of my instructions when running Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware:
  • When the scan is complete, click OK, then Show Results to view the results.
  • Be sure that everything is checked, and click Remove Selected.

Please upldate Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware, run a scan again and Remove everything if finds, then post back the new report.
(Just follow all the steps i posted about Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware except of the downloading part.)
----------------------------------------------
Please download ATF cleaner
Make sure that all browser windows are closed.
    Double-click ATF-Cleaner.exe to run the program.
    Under Main choose: Select All and UNCHECK Cookies.
    Click the Empty Selected button.
If you use Firefox browser
    Click Firefox at the top and choose: Select All and UNCHECK Cookies.
    Click the Empty Selected button.

Re: Scratching my head, can't find Malware in my PC

Unread postby spankyjo54 » December 29th, 2008, 3:23 am

Firstly, I did do another scan with Malware and got rid of all that was found. I knew they were not suppose to be in my regestry nor other filesl because I remember the "Winweb Security" Trojan or what ever it is infected my computer after I had done a format and reload. I had gotten all my MS updates, put in all my software I have on disk here. I have a very good bit of software that started out to just be "Counterspy, but was offered Viper along with it for a discount. Viper uses less RAM, CPU and most power drained by other antivirus and spy and malware software. I was using Avast when I got the Winweb and others. That is what caused me to look for a good bit of software. I am still using the Windows firewall but know that Sunbelt also has a firewall that claims to be better. I do know that nothing I am aware of has gotten past Viper since I installed it.
I also have a friend in the UK that is a software maker, (can't think of the term), and he has advised me on two different kinds of software for cleaning my registry that is dummy proof called, Regvac Registry cleaner and also gives me the option to go into the advanced mode and pack the registry. Also a PC Cleaner called A1Click Ultra PC Cleaner. Along with the Malware you recommended, etc. I think I am pretty well covered. I need to find a way to back up since I have way too much on here to put on a disk. I will look into an on line file keeper.
Oh and I do have the recent version of Java.Version 6 Update 11. About the ATF Cleaner. I will go take a look at that and do as you ask. And will do the online scan also and send you the report. I think you for hanging in there with me. I really think things are better already. The "Winweb Security" joke, if that's what you want to call it has been totally taken off my PC. I now remember how I got it. I was going to one of my regular sites to download some software I use off that site quite a bit. I had never seen this drop-down plug-in request before but since I have seen it many times before I thought nothing of it. I did not open any infected e-mail but as soon as I downloaded that plug-in I started getting the Security warning from Winweb Security.
I think anyone putting that onto another's web site is about a low as you can sink to try and show how smart they THING they are. Most are just pure ignorant. :?: :) spankyjo.

Hello spankyjo54,

Registry Cleaners

We generally do not recommend the use of registry cleaners.

Here is an excerpt from a discussion on regcleaners
Most reg cleaners aren't "bad" as such, but they aren't perfect and even the best have been known to cause problems.
The point we are trying to make is that the risk of using one far outweighs any benefit.
If it does work perfectly you will not see any difference.
If it doesn't work properly you may end up with an expensive doorstop.

Kaspersky REport was a bit harder. I stated this afternoon, let it run, it had scanned 2hrs and 56 minutes, was almost done and the electricity went off. !$#%@#$%!@#%$!@
Did it again this evening and see where I had put some things on my computer from old disks that are infected, I will have to get rid of them but will wait for your advise.

I meant to ask, is the Window XP firewall not reliable? Since I do have Sunbelts Viper and extra features added to its scanning other than just viruses. I may download their firewall and see if I like it and disable XP's.
Come to think of it, XP's firewall has let several Trojans get into the back door in the long past. Thank goodness there were cures, so to speak, to download and rid one of those nasty's. Thanks, A Barton (JO)

Hello spankyjo54,

Windows Firewall controls only one way of the traffic (inbound). So it would be better to install an independant one.
-----------------------------------------------
Update and run again Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware.
  • Select Perform full scan, then click Scan.
  • When the scan is complete, click OK, then Show Results to view the results.
  • Be sure that everything is checked, and click Remove Selected.
  • Go in Logs Tab, and post back the new report.
-----------------------------------------------
Word Wrap

Your HijackThis log, is messed up. This is cause by having Word Wrap checked.
Before running HijackThis again, follow the steps below:

1. Click Start > All Programs > Accessories > Notepad
2. On the menu bar in Notepad select Format and click on WordWrap so it appears un-checked.
-----------------------------------------------
Post back:

I will get this to you ASAP. I found out today what I thought was just a little cold has now blown up into a full blast of the flu. Thought I was over that junk. Guess not. But, I can have the scans going while I feel sorry for myself. LOL :pale: :)

Hi, i hope you are feeling a little better.

HijackThis report is fine, but you fail to remove what Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware found.
C:\System Volume Information\_restore{F3C49B63-18E1-46C9-91F4-3660C0771E9E}\RP34\A0012070.exe (Rogue.Installer) -> No action taken.

See my previous explanation how to remove what the tool found.

Please repeat the scan, and:
Be sure that everything is checked, and click Remove Selected

Then post back the report.

Oh, sorry, I did, but sent you what was in there. Ah, fever does strange things to the brain. LOL Good to hear the Hijackthis scan was OK and I did get rid of the things that Mal ware found. So, I guess that means I am clean and my PC is running real fast but then, I am not done with my reloading saved files, etc. Thanks, nice to know I finally did get rid of "Winweb Security", my rear!!! It will Winweb you into totally destroying the files in your OS. So be sure to let others know about that sneaky little what ever it is. It shows itself on different web sites as a plug-in that needs to be installed to see the site better. Uh HUH. If you see it, your lucky. LOL :lol: Its does not destroy anything but slows down your system and annoys the heck out of you all day with its pop-ups constantly.

I will try and get that last scan done on Tuesday, so, take a break, (yeah right) like I am the only one on here????? NOT!!! LOL Have a good week. JO
