Fixing a friend's computer

Unread postby simp1980 » September 6th, 2010, 11:19 pm

I'm having trouble with a friend's computer. He brought me the laptop because he thinks he has a virus(I agree). Here is what I have done so far:

-There was a program called bit defender, I removed it.
-I attempted to install avg free, but when I clicked on the link via google search, I got an error stating that the page could not be loaded. The message said the link would not... return? a valid url. I dont remember the exact verbiage.
-i pulled a dl link from cnet on my laptop and typed it exactly into the infected computers address bar(using firefox). I was able to dl and install AVG Free.
-I attempted to run AVG. It would not run.
- I booted in safe mode and ran AVG. It found a bunch of stuff, for which I have the log. Some things were not removable.
- I rebooted in normal mode and got these two error messages:

error loading diguweha.dll
the specified module could not be found

error loading c:\windows\system32\puwisuro.dll
the specified module could not be found

-I attempted to run an AVG scan. When I clicked the AVG icon in the tray, resident shield popped up with a detected threat named kapigagi.dll.
-I tried to open the task manager, when I did, resident shield popped up with a detected threat named kapigagi.dll.
- I tried to open firefox, when I did, resident shield popped up with a detected threat named kapigagi.dll
-i rebooted in safe mode.
-I loaded a malwarebytes setup exe via disc. After installation, I attempted to run malewarebytes. I got an error message that the malwarebytes executable could not be found(I forget the name of the exe) Per the malwarebytes forum, I copied a renamed executable to the malewarbytes program file. I got a new error message(I dont remember the name)
-I tried to uninstall and reinstall using links from the malwarebytes forum. It still would not run
-I shut down the computer.
- I rebooted some 10 minutes later. VIOLA- AVG will now run in normal mode. I am doing a full system scan now.


I do not have a hijackthis log or an uninstall list. I thought it wise not to stop the AVG scan. I'm posting what I have anyhow, jic the information I do have can give a head start

OK. The AVG scan finished, it found nothing. I dl'd malewarebytes and it is currently running a scan. And here is the hijackthis log:

Please familiarize yourself with the forum rules: >Forum Posting Rules - Please Read<

We're sorry, but it is necessary to close your topic because you have replied to it prior to receiving a response from a helper.

Due to adding on to your topic with your second post it is highly unlikely that you would have received a response. Our helpers are looking for topics with zero responses. When you post replies to your own topic, it no longer has zero responses, and so it appears that you have received help when in fact, you have not.

If you still require help, please open a new thread in the Malware Removal forum and wait for assistance. Please do not run additional programs and/or post additional logs. Just your HijackThis log and Uninstall List to start with is adequate. Your helper will ask for additional logs as needed. DO NOT reply to your own topic until you have received a response from a helper. Be patient. There are others who have been waiting longer than you, so do not expect an immediate reply.
