Need to check if computer is infected

Unread postby lemon_lime123 » November 9th, 2009, 8:45 pm

Hello,
I've been trying to help my computer teacher with a trojan her son donwloaded. Its tauocey.scr, which infected her usb and made phony shortcuts on her usb that mimicked the My Documents, My Music, all those generic folders, only they point to tauocey.exe. Trouble is it got on my usb and i think it spread to my computer. I already formatted the usb but i don't know if it already spread to my computer. Heres the Hijack this log.

Sorry for the delay.
Why is the system on drive G: ? is this a multi=-boot with another system?
--------------------------------------------------
Run Flash Disinfector
  • Please download Flash_Disinfector and save it to your desktop.
  • Double click to run it.
  • You will be prompted to plug in your flash drive. Plug it in.
  • Flash_Disinfector will start disinfecting your flash and hard drives. This takes a few seconds. Your desktop will disappear in the meantime.
  • When done, a message box will appear. Click OK. Your desktop should now appear. If it doesn't, press Ctrl + Shift + Esc to open Task Manager.
  • Click on File > New Task > Run... Type in explorer.exe and press Enter. Your desktop should now appear.
Wait until it has finished scanning and then exit the program.

You can run Flash Disinfector with other flash drives and/or other removable drives. This may include your mobile phone.
Please do so and allow the utility to clean up those drives as well.
------------------------------------------------------------
Download the latest version of Java Runtime Environment here : http://java.sun.com/javase/downloads/index.jsp, and install it to your computer.
Scroll down - It is currently the 5th item on the page (the page changes often), called JRE 6 Update 17
Select Windows and multi-language, and check to agree to the license.
Choose Windows Offline installation version.
Download it, choose Save, and save it to your desktop.
Then doubleclick it, and it will install the newest version of Java for you to use.
You can then remove the Installer from your desktop.
-----------------------------------------------------
Run an Online Kaspersky WebScan
  • Please go to Kaspersky website and perform an online antivirus scan.
  • Read through the requirements and privacy statement and click on Accept button.
  • It will start downloading and installing the scanner and virus definitions. You will be prompted to install an application from Kaspersky. Click Run.
  • When the Program and Database downloads have finished, (may take a while), Click on My Computer under Scan.
  • Once the scan is complete, it will display the results. Click on View Scan Report.
  • You will see a list of infected items there. Click on Save Report As....
  • Save this report to a convenient place. Change the Files of type to Text file (.txt) before clicking on the Save button.
  • Please post the contents of this log in your next reply.

So we are looking for the Kaspersky log, and the answer to what kind of machine boot we have here.

The Kapersky report was empty, i guess that meant there was no threats.

Yes It is a multi-boot machine. I have a Windows XP partition (C:), a compaq recovery partition (D:), and Windows 7 on another partition (G:). All my stuff (music, documents, etc.) is stored on a seperate hard drive on the L: partition

lemon_lime,
I think your machine is OK.
In the absence of any direct evidence of some problem, I think you are good to go.
