Hi

Please reboot and run GMER.

Gmer

Download GMER Rootkit Scanner from here.

  • Disconnect from the Internet and close all running programs.
  • Temporarily disable any real-time active protection (Avast) so your security programs will not conflict with gmer's driver.
  • It is very important you do not use your computer while GMER is running
  • Right click the randomly named GMER Image icon & choose "Run as Administrator"
  • GMER will open to the Rootkit/Malware tab and perform an automatic quick scan
  • If you receive a warning about rootkit activity and are asked to fully scan your system click NO
  • Please check the Quick scan box
  • Please uncheck the following:
    • IAT/EAT
    • Show All <<< Important
    Image
  • Click Scan
  • If you see a rootkit warning window click OK
  • When the scan is finished, Save the results to your desktop as gmer.log
  • Click Copy then paste the results in your reply
  • Exit GMER and be sure to re-enable your Antivirus, Firewall and any other security programs you had disabled
Note:
  • If you encounter any problems, try running GMER in Safe Mode
  • If GMER crashes or keeps resulting in a Blue Screen of Death, uncheck Devices on the right side before scanning

Hi

You ran combofix before seeking help here. Do you have the combofix log found at:

C:\combofix.txt

If so, please post the contents of that log.

Hi

I'm not seeing anything wrong so far.

The service we stopped - MWAgent - pertains to MicroWorld Technologies eScan, which is an antivirus. That service running could have caused conflicts with your currently installed antivirus - Avast - which could be the cause of the symptoms you have been experiencing.


Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware (MBAM)

Please download Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware to your desktop.

  • Double-click mbam-setup-version.number.exe and follow the prompts to install the program.
  • At the end, Uncheck Enable the free trial Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware PRO
    (You can activate this when we've finished, if you wish)
  • Be sure a checkmark is placed next to Update Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware and Launch Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware, then click Finish.
  • If an update is found, it will download and install the latest version.
  • Select the Settings tab, then the Scanner Settings tab
  • For Action for Potentially Unwanted Programs (PUP), choose Show in results list and check for removal
  • Select to the Scanner tab, select Perform Quick scan, then click on Scan
  • When done, you will be prompted. Click OK. If Items are found, then click on Show Results
  • Check all items then click on Remove Selected
  • After it has removed the items, Notepad will open. Please post this log in your next reply.

    The log can also be found here:
  • C:\Documents and Settings\Username\Application Data\Malwarebytes\Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware\Logs\mbam-log-date (time).txt
  • Or via the Logs tab when the application is started.
.
Note: MBAM may ask to reboot your computer so it can continue with the removal process, please do so immediately. Failure to reboot will prevent MBAM from removing all the malware.

Hi

At this stage I wouldn't say your problems are attributed to a rootkit or any other malware.

Q.1 How are things running since stopping and disabling the MWAgent service?
Q.2 Have you run a disk check (chkdsk) yet?

We'll run one last scan.

aswMBR

Download aswMBR and save it to your Desktop.

  • Right click aswMBR.exe & choose "Run as Administrator" to run it.
  • Click the Scan button.
    (Please be patient whilst your computer is scanned.)
  • When the scan reports "Scan finished successfully", click Save log & save the log to your desktop.
  • Click OK
  • Two files will be created, aswMBR.txt & a file named MBR.dat
  • Save MBR.dat to to a form of removable media. (CD, DVD, USB flash drive etc) - This is a backup of your MBR. Do not delete this file.
  • NOTE: Do not click to fix anything at this stage!
  • Click EXIT.
  • Copy & Paste the contents of aswMBR.txt into your next reply.

Hi

I haven't run a disk check (chkdsk) yet.

While i was running aswMBR Scan, it showed BSOD but this time it DID NOT SHOW the message "OS NOT FOUND".

After BSOD ,it directly went to Windows Recovery Option which showed Safe Mode and other modes and I normally started it.

Again i ran the scan AND i have Saved MBR.dat in removable media.

Hi

Hard-Drive Maintenance:

  • Click Start and type CMD in the start search box. When CMD is found, right click it and choose "Run as Administrator"
  • At the Command Prompt type the following:
  • CD C:\ and hit the Enter/Return key.
  • Now type in CHKDSK C: /R and hit the Enter/Return key (Note the space between C: and /R).
  • When prompted with:
    CHKDSK cannot run because the volume is in use by another process. Would you like to schedule this volume to be checked next time the system restarts (Y/N)
  • Hit the Y key then at the Command Prompt C:\ >
  • Type in EXIT and and hit the Enter/Return key.
  • Now Reboot (Restart) your computer.

Note: Upon Reboot (Restart) the CHKDSK (check-disk) will start and carry out any repairs required.

Note: Do not touch either the keyboard or Mouse, otherwise the Check-Disk will be canceled and you computer will continue to boot-up as normal.

Note: When CHKDSK has completed its scans, the machine will proceed to load and Boot to Windows.

Then give me an update on how things are running.
