Hi

Ok, give me a little time to check up on it.

Initially it looks like the latest round of MS updates may be the cause.

Are you presented with the option to start via the Recovery Console?

Hi

Good. Like I said, give me a little time to check up on it.

I've my own PC wanting to restart to finish installing the updates as well.

I think I'll wait a while first. ;)

Hi

Right, it does look like it is the MS updates that have caused this - there are numerous reports of this happening.

1. Restart your computer
2. Before Windows loads, you will be prompted to choose which Operating System to start
3. Use the up and down arrow key to select Microsoft Windows Recovery Console
4. You must enter which Windows installation to log onto. Type 1 and press enter.
5. At the C:\Windows prompt, type the following bolded text, and press Enter:

CD $NtUninstallKB977165$\spuninst

6. At the next prompt, type the following bolded text, and press Enter:

BATCH spuninst.txt

7.At the next prompt, type the following bolded text, and press Enter:

Exit

Restart the PC.

Let me know how it goes.

I'm amazed. That did the trick. Should everything be alright with that now? I'll post the two logs you asked for a couple posts ago when it's running smoothly again.

Also, it's saying that updates are ready. Would I be safe updating?

Re: Google Redirect Virus

Hi

I'm glad your up and running again.

jmartin075 wrote:Also, it's saying that updates are ready. Would I be safe updating?

I would hold off for now - It could give us additional complications (As it already has...) that may hinder the malware removal process.

Go to Add/Remove programs (Start > Control Panel > Add or Remove programs), check Show Updates, and if an entry exists for "Security update for XP" (KB977165), Click Remove and follow the prompts to completely uninstall the hotfix. Any problems at this point, stop and let me know.


How are things running? Have the re-directs stopped? Any more problems that you would attribute to a possible malware infection?

Give me a fresh DDS log and we'll take it from there.


Re-run DDS

Please disable any anti-malware program that will block scripts from running before running DDS.
  • Disable any script blocker, and then double click dds.scr to run the tool.
  • When done, Please copy & paste the contents of :
    • DDS.txt
And post it in your next reply.

My computer is acting very strange now. It looks like an older version of windows (98 or Millenium). The task bar, internet explorer, start menu all look this way. Also, I got this notification from McAffee.

McAfee has detected a potentially unauthorized registry change to your computer.

About this Registry Change
SystemGuards: Winlogon User Init
Program: Nemounumodfuixseer
Location: C:\WINDOWS\Temp\gntr.tmp\svchost.exe


Not sure what that is but I've been getting them occasionally. The redirects have stopped though so that's a plus.


Here's the dds.txt

Hi

Yes, you're re-infected.


Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware (MBAM)

As you have Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware installed on your computer. Could you please do a scan using these settings:

  • Open Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware
  • Select the Update tab
  • Click Check for Updates
  • After the update have been completed, Select the Scanner tab.
  • Select Perform Quick scan scan, then click on Scan
  • Leave the default options as it is and click on Start Scan
  • When done, you will be prompted. Click OK, then click on Show Results
  • Check all items then click on Remove Selected
  • After it has removed the items, Notepad will open. Please post this log in your next reply.

    The log can also be found here:
    1. C:\Documents and Settings\Username\Application Data\Malwarebytes\Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware\Logs\mbam-log-date (time).txt
    2. Or via the Logs tab when the application is started.

Note: MBAM may ask to reboot your computer so it can continue with the removal process, please do so immediately.
Failure to reboot will prevent MBAM from removing all the malware.

I decided to restart my computer to see if that would do anything and then it crashed at startup, just like it did yesterday. I used recovery console again and typed in the information you provided in the earlier post. I looked in add/remove programs, but the update wasn't there (after the first set of crashes and this time.) Is it reinstalling itself? If so, how do I stop it? Is it what caused my computer to look like windows 98? :x

For the time being turn off automatic updates. Start > Control Panel >Automatic Updates > Turn off Automatic updates > Apply > OK


Then run the Malwarebytes scan.

Ok, I just disabled the updates and I'm starting the Malwarebytes scan but a window came up that said:

Generic Host Process for Win32 services has encountered a problem and needs to close.



Malwarebytes just found 8 infected items and it's been 3 minutes...

Do you have the log, or are you having problems?
