Hi drew,

Start Flash_Disinfector then attach the devices when it prompts you to, as in the instructions here.

Did the flash disinfector, no problem. I included my thumb drive (so will need to do memory stick and external drive).

I keep getting a comodo alert for "System is trying to receive a connection from the internet."
66.248.36.36 TCP.

It happened during the first download and now during the second as well. Downloads continue regardless. I don't normally get alerts on my firewall.

Is this something I should be approving? It is odd because it only happens during the downloads but doesn't appear to be from the download.

"I will plug in the memory stick and thumb drive before I begin ok?"

Sorry, I was tired and yea the directions were there. :thumbup:

I am just continuing on with the eset scan, will let you know if any problems. I did not allow that connection through the firewall.

Hi drew,

I can't find much on that IP. I definitely wouldn't allow it, though.

I wonder why that thing is popping up. Then again this computer is new to me and I haven't used it much. Ok, thanks for confirming that.

I will explain what I did here, FYI.

The instructions said-
"Note: You will need to disable your Anti-Virus.
To disable Comodo Internet Security

* Locate Comodo Image icon in the system tray at the bottom right of the desktop.
* Right-click the icon and select Exit
* The program will ask if you are sure; click Yes."

The newer Comodo firewall has combined anti virus. When you right click on the small Comodo icon on the lower right you get an option for "antivirus security level" and then an option to "disable". So I just have the anti virus disabled as I am not thinking you want my firewall off while online.

It's pretty cool the new comodo. From a right click on the icon you can set the firewall, anti virus, or defense plus security level settings.

You did the right thing. :)
The AV is all that needs to be disabled and with that suspicious connection it is definitely wise to keep the firewall enabled. Let's see if ESET scan finds anything.

Hi Shinybeast,

Eset is giving me problems because it is taking so long to download the virus database, then errored out before it was finished. I started it again but doesn't seem to be loading right. My problem is probably because of a dial up connection. Is there any other online scan that is just as good? Thanks

Hi drew,

OK, I didn't realize you were on dial-up, that complicates matters.

I would really like a second opinion.

This scan is a bit less of a download but will still take quite some time to download. Give it a try.


Panda Online Scan

Use Firefox for this scan.
Please visit Panda Active Scan to run an online scan
  • Once you are on the Panda site, click the Scan your PC now button
  • A new window will open...click the Scan Now button
  • Click Install to download and install the plug-in, follow the instructions provided.
  • Click Continue and the ActiveScan download/update will start.
  • The screen will then show the scanning progress - the scan will take a while to finish. Please be patient.
  • When the scan has finished, click on Export To:
  • Save the file as Activescan.txt to your Desktop
  • Close the Activescan window then go to your Desktop
  • Double-click on Activescan.txt and it will open in Notepad
  • In Notepad, click Edit > Select all, then Edit > Copy
  • Reply to this thread and click Ctrl+V to paste the log in your reply


COMODO logs

Also, let's get a look at the COMODO logs.

  • Double-click COMODO icon to open COMODO Internet Security
  • Click AntiVirus in top row
  • Click View Antivirus Events
  • In the events window, click More...
  • In the Log Viewer window, click File > Export to HTML > All
  • Save the logs to your desktop.
  • Open them one by one and Edit > Select All, then Copy the contents of the log.
  • Open notepad and paste them into it one after the other.
  • Save this as logs.txt to your desktop and copy/paste the contents of that file in your next reply.


OTL Quick Scan

  • Close all other open windows, then double-click OTL.exe to start OTL
  • Click Quick Scan to start the scan
  • Once it is finished, a log will open (OTL.txt)
  • Please copy and paste the contents of OTL.txt in your next reply.


Please reply with COMODO log, OTL log and Panda ActiveScan log, if applicable.

Panda froze 4 times, at 11 percent of the scan done. It said at that point it found 10 infected files but didn't specify yet. It kept stopping on file qwin8\chu_c_c[1].gif. And that firewall alert for System wanting to connect happened again while I was downloading Panda Scan.

I tried ESET again, managed to get it done. It said it found 2 problems.
C:\Program Files\PC Magazine Utilities\HomePatrol\HomePatrol.exe probably unknown NewHeur_PE virus
Operating memory probably unknown NewHeur_PE virus

Homepatrol is a webcam program I have.

The Comodo logs, do you want any log besides the Anti Virus? Going by the directions I get the Firewall log only. I will do OTL ASAP. Took a long time to get the online scan done tonight.

Heres the Comodo Anti Virus log-
(That nircmd file was for the flash disinfector program)

Hi drew,

Nircmd came with Flash_Disinfector. It is a beefy command line tool. You can learn about it here. It is itself safe but as with all powerful tools, it can cause harm in the "wrong hands."

There is one thing of concern in the comodo logs - the PlusStart.exe executable which is part of ProMagicPlus which was on the "H" drive. It could be an infected copy or it could be a false positive. Comodo appears to have quarantined it. I suggest you not use the program.

As for the IP address that you are getting notifications about, it appears to be owned by PaeTec Communications. Does that mean anything to you?

The only other thing I see is ALCMTR.EXE in your startups. It is not malicious but technically spyware and certainly unneeded.

HijackThis

  • Start HijackThis and select Do a system scan only.
  • Place a check next to the lines listed below.
O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [Alcmtr] ALCMTR.EXE

  • After placing a check next to the above line, close all windows except for HijackThis.
  • Click Fix checked, then click Yes to confirm.
  • Close HijackThis, then reboot the computer.


I see you have MalwareBytes' installed. Let's do a scan with it as you are having trouble with the online scans.

Update and Scan with MalwareBytes'

  • Start MalwareBytes' Anti-Malware (MBAM)
  • Click the Update tab, then click Check for Updates button
  • Allow MBAM to check for and download updates, then click OK
  • Click the Scanner tab and select (tick) Perform full scan
  • Click Scan to start then scan.
  • When it finishes, click OK in the window that pops up and then click Show Results in the main window
  • Check all items EXCEPT items in the C:\System Volume Information folder... then click on Remove Selected.
  • When the removal is complete, a logfile will open. Please copy and paste the entire contents of the logfile in your next reply. See NOTE below
  • If necessary, the logfile can also be accessed by running Malwarebytes' and clicking the Log tab. Double-click the current log to open it.
NOTE: If Malwarebytes' encounters a file that is difficult to remove, you will be presented with 1 of 2 prompts. Click OK to either and let it proceed with the disinfection process. If asked to restart the computer, please do so immediately. Failure to reboot will prevent Malwarebytes' from removing all the malware.


Please reply with the MalwareBytes' log and inform me of any remaining issues and your thoughts on PaeTec.

Hi Shinybeast,

Ok flash disinfector it is then lol, thanks :).

The only problem I seem to have with this new computer, which I haven't tried in days, is printing online out of my email. That became a problem shortly after the thumb drive thing. That night on my dads printer it suddenly began printing nonsense. Then I got home and with my printer I still couldn't get emails printed, a box comes up saying there is some error and it can't print. There is no problem printing offline. The reason I am concerned about this is because after having to use one of the sticks on my old back up computer, then I got online on that computer to get those emails printed, at the end of the last email I printed was that nonsense again. Hope that makes sense. Maybe I just need to scan the old back up with Comodo, seems Comodo takes care of things ok. Or when I can I'll bring my old computer to the forum for a check.


I intend to format the other sticks then run flash disinfector on them, so that is settled because I know what I need to do.

Can you explain to me what the Comodo log shows as the infection it had? It seemed to have found a few problems (which I quarantined) and looking at it I don't understand what happened.

I am trying to figure out how anything is on the "H" drive. When I look in my drives "H" is shown as the DVD/CD-RW Drive. I don't know of any promagicplus program. It isn't listed in my programs either. Can we track it down and remove this program?

I am also wondering why Eset picked up HomePatrol as a problem. Do you think it was a false positive or maybe there is something to it? I don't find anything on a quick search.

Paetec doesn't look familiar to me at all. I looked through my programs and didn't find anything that appeared to match it. I didn't build this computer so am unsure if it is trying to connect because of something on it, I asked Dad to check the site to see if he recognized anything but no word back on that, will ask him again. It seems suspicious to me that it attempts to connect every time I am doing a download.

In my add/remove programs is a "Realtek high definition audio driver". It is running in my processes and is it connected to this O4 - HKLM..\Run: [Alcmtr] C:\WINDOWS\ALCMTR.EXE (Realtek Semiconductor Corp.)?

I killed ALCMTR.exe, thanks.

For Malwarebytes I only scanned C drive, should I do others or is that what you wanted? (shouldn't I have Windows 7?)
