Re: pesky Win32.small.azl Trojan

Unread postby firebrand » December 12th, 2007, 6:22 pm

Markamus,

Had a couple of problems (possibly) with the AVG portion. I will walk you through what I had problems with pertaining to the last instructions.

I didn't realize PC Cleaner was different than CCleaner at first, so I downloaded both, but haven't used PC Cleaner other than installing it. I had difficulty getting AVG Anti-Spy to download, I even left computer on all-night but it still hadn't from the link you sent. I went instead to download.com and got it there in a few moments. I downloaded it and installed it in normal setting, but didn't run it until being in Safe mode. I also had some troubles updating it, but it finally went. I believe I was finally able to get it to update in normal mode after trying in Safe mode with Connectivity to no success.

After the scan was completed in the Safe mode setting, I didn't really see a box that said Save Scan Report, so I don't think I clicked that on accident. I did see the Apply All Actions button, and it did find some tracking cookies which were deleted, in addition to what it found and quarantined, which I will type below this. However, there was not a report that was generated. The Save Report button was grayed out the entire time to my recollection when I ran the AVG Anti-Spy. I went back in again and ran it in regular mode, and that time it did save a report (and found nothing). I will post that below. I don't quite know why I didn't get a report for the first running (or maybe this is normal), but I can't find it searching on my computer. I can trace back up the tree when I look to see where it is saving these reports, but can't find that folder when I go there to see if there was an initial report off the first running.

So possibly I missed a step, I'm not sure exactly where though. Have had no problems surfing, seems to be moving a bit faster, but I will have to surf more later and see how it is doing, will report tomorrow on how it is moving. I want to try IE since Firefox is normally what I use to browse and IE always was more problematic with this infection in terms of speed.

From Infections tab of AVG: (Infected With column)

C:\qoobox\Quarantine\C\WINNT\system32\bthnngid.dll.vir (Not-a-Virus.Adware.SecToolBar)
C:\VundoFix Backups\nizkqfwi.dll.bad (Not-a-Virus.Adware.SecToolBar)
C:\quobox\Quarantine\C\WINNT\system32\ktcsuwj.dll.vir (Not-a-Virus.Adware.Agent)
C:\qoobox\Quarantine\C\WINNT\Ympkb25pcw\sAD4vZcDwT.vbs.vir (Trojan.small)

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

Hi firebrand,

Using Windows Explorer
    (Right click on "Start," select "Explore," and you will see the "tree' of file folders in the left side of the window. Click on the "+" next to any folder name to expand its contents)
Locate and Delete the following folders
    C:\qoobox
    C:\VundoFix Backups
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

How is everything running now?
