HJT log, unsure of infection

[IndiGenus]

Hi again,

Looks like it is having problems fixing the Adobe Reader Updater. What we recommend at this point is to uninstall Adobe Reader 7 (older versions have vulnerablilities anyway) and install version 8.

You can get the new version here. http://www.adobe.com/products/acrobat/readstep2.html

Before installing the new version use Add or Remove Programs to uninstall Adobe. Then remove any and all folders that may be left over.
C:\Program Files\Adobe\Acrobat 7.0

I would also recommend removing the Utopia folder/files and re-installing them as it looks like they have been corrupted by the infection.

C:\Utopia

To finish, run Option 4.

Double-click the FindAWF icon once again.
Use the following option: Press 4 then Enter to reset domain zones.

When the program returns to the main menu, use the following option:
Press E then Enter to EXIT

Post a new HJT log and let us know how it's running. Be sure to test out your programs.

My computer is running pretty nicely now.

Hi crustyg,

Glad to hear things are running better. Still a bit of work to do though.

Update Java Runtime:

You are using an old version of Java. Sun's Java is sometimes updated in order to eliminate the exploitation of vulnerabilities in an existing version. For this reason, it's extremely important that you keep the program up to date, and also remove the older more vulnerable versions from your system. The most current version of Sun Java is: Java Runtime Environment Version 6 Update 3.

• Go to http://java.sun.com/javase/downloads/index.jsp
• Click on the link named Java Runtime Environment (JRE) 6 Update 3
• Click on the radio button to Accept License Agreement
• Click on Windows Offline Installation, Multi-language and save the downloaded file to your hard disk
• Go to Start => Control Panel => Add or Remove Programs
• Uninstall all old versions of Java (Java 2 Runtime Environment, JRE or JSE)
• Reboot your computer
• Delete the folder C:\Program Files\Java if present
• Install the new version by running the newly-downloaded file, and follow the on-screen instructions.
• Reboot your computer

-------------------------------------------------------------------------

I think it is time to update to Service Pack 2, as you appear to be clean.

It is crucial to update to Service Pack 2, it is probably the most important update the Microsoft has ever put out for WinXP and you are extremely vulnerable without it, Service Pack 2 significantly increases the security on your computer. I recommend that you do this update as soon as possible.

Link to Windows Update: http://v5.windowsupdate.microsoft.com

Please update your computer then post back with how it went. If you have any problems please post back with as much detail as you can. This is needed because any problems updating to SP2 could indicate that there is still some infection on your system that we need to address.

[crustygloves]

I am unable to install SP2, i've tried it multiple times, and i took it into a shop to get done properly becasue it never worked for me, and they couldn't get it to work on my PC either, i actually have a seperate partition with SP2 installed, but i can't even log on without my computer crashing.

I can't update java becasue it isn't capable of running on sp1

At this point it appears as though your system is all clean and will need to get additional support for your update issue. You can start here:

Now that you are clean, please follow these simple steps in order to keep your computer clean and secure:

Reset and Re-enable your System Restore to remove infected files that have been backed up by Windows. The files in System Restore are protected to prevent any programs changing those files. This is the only way to clean these files: (You will lose all previous restore points which may be infected anyway).

Click Start>Help and Support>Undo changes to your computer with System Restore
Select Create A Restore Point then click Next. Give it a name it and then click Create

Click Start>Run and type Cleanmgr
Click the More Options Tab.
Click Clean Up in the System Restore section.

In addition to updating and using what you currently have you may want to consider the following:

Use a Firewall - I can not stress how important it is that you use a Firewall on your computer. Without a firewall your computer is succeptible to being hacked and taken over. Simply using a Firewall in its default configuration can lower your risk greatly. Here are some free and evalutation versions that provide
better security than the Windows Firewall.

Sunbelt Personal Firewall
Outpost Firewall

Install Ad-Aware - Ad-Aware SE You should also scan your computer with program on a regular basis just as you would an antivirus software in conjunction with Spybot.

Use IESpy-Ad -
IESpy-Ad will block access to malicious websites so you cannot be redirected to them from an infected site or email. Instructions for set up and use can be found at the website.

Update all of your Anti-Malware programs regularly - Make sure you update all the programs I have listed and the ones you are currently running regularly. Without regular updates you Will Not be protected when new malicious programs are released.

Good luck and safe surfing,

[crustygloves]

Thanks very much for your help:)

I'm pretty sure the reason i got infected this was turning off AVG's auto-update and not remembering to update it manually before scanning.

I'll make sure i do everything you said in your last post, thanks again!
