Hello , welcome to the forum.

Looks like you've been infected with Spyware Quake

Please do not delete anything unless instructed to.

Please read these instructions carefully and print them out! Be sure to follow ALL instructions!

Image


Download smitRem.exe ©noahdfear, and save the file to your desktop.
Image

Double-click on the smitRem.exe file to extract it to it's own folder on the desktop.

Image

Place a shortcut to Panda ActiveScan on your desktop (in Internet Explorer, right click on Panda ActiveScan link select "Copy Shortcut" then right click on your desktop and select "Paste Shortcut" or in FireFox right-click the link and select "Save Link As" and save it to your desktop).

Please download the trial version of ewido anti-malware here:
http://www.ewido.net/en/download/

Please read Ewido Setup Instructions
Install it, and update the definitions to the newest files. Do NOT run a scan yet.

Next, boot into Safe Mode. To do this:

1) Restart your computer
2) After hearing your computer beep once during startup, but before the Windows icon appears, press F8.
3) Instead of Windows loading as normal, a menu should appear
4) Select the first option, to run Windows in Safe Mode.



Open the smitRem folder on your desktop

Image


Double-click on the RunThis.bat file, as shown by the arrow in the image above, to start the tool.

The tool will create a log named smitfiles.txt in the root of your drive, eg; Local Disk C: or partition where your operating system is installed. Please post that log along with all others requested in your next reply.

Reboot your computer into Normal Mode.

Download roguescanfix.exe , and save it to your desktop.
Double click roguescanfix.exe to install it.
Open the roguescanfix folder, and doubleclick run.bat. Make Sure you have an active internet connection!
Your desktop and icons will disappear and then reappear again, this is normal.
Wait till the message "Completed script execution" appears, then click OK.
Click "Exit" to close BFU.
Click "OK" to start the SpywareQuake/Spyfalcon uninstaller, after that click "uninstall". Please wait until it is finished.
WARNING: You will be asked to reboot your computer. Wait until the uninstallers did their job before clicking YES.

Next, Run Ewido:
  • Click on scanner
  • Click on Complete System Scan and the scan will begin.
  • While the scan is in progress you will be prompted to clean files, click OK
  • When it asks if you want to clean the first file, put a check in the lower left corner of the box that says "Perform action on all infections" then choose clean and click OK.
  • Once the scan has completed, there will be a button located on the bottom of the screen named Save report
  • Click Save report.
  • Save the report .txt file to your desktop.
Close ewido anti-malware.

Next go to Control Panel click Display > Desktop > Customize Desktop > Web > Uncheck "Security Info" if present.

Reboot back into Windows and click the Panda ActiveScan shortcut.
  • Once you are on the Panda site click the Scan your PC button.
  • A new window will open...click the Check Now button.
    • Enter your Country
    • Enter your State/Province
    • Enter your e-mail address and click send
    • Select either Home User or Company
    • Click the big Scan Now button
  • If it wants to install an ActiveX component allow it
  • It will start downloading the files it requires for the scan (Note: It may take a couple of minutes)
  • When the download is complete, click on My Computer to start the scan
  • When the scan completes, if anything malicious is detected, click the See Report button, then Save Report and save it to a convenient location.


Post the contents of the Panda scan report, along with a new HijackThis Log, the contents of smitfiles.txt and the Ewido Log by using Add Reply.
Let us know if any problems persist.

I was unable to run pandasoft scan. I downloaded active X component. On the next screen I clicked on my computer but just said error at bottom of screen. I tried disabling Firewall allowing cookies and popups but would not run test.
I do however appear to be free of problems. popups in the system tray have gone and all spyware programs tell me I'm clean.

Congratulations, your log looks clean!

First, Lets reset system restore
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 are likely to be infected. Please note you need Administrator Access to do clean the restore points.

1. Turn off System Restore.
On the Desktop, right-click My Computer.
Click Properties.
Click the System Restore tab.
Check Turn off System Restore.
Click Apply, and then click OK.

2. Reboot.

3. Turn ON System Restore.
On the Desktop, right-click My Computer.
Click Properties.
Click the System Restore tab.
UN-Check *Turn off System Restore*.
Click Apply, and then click OK.
NOTE: only do this ONCE,NOT on a regular basis

There are a few other very important things you should follow to avoid getting reinfected:

Update your Anti Virus Software - It is imperative that you update your Anti virus software at least once a week (Even more if you wish). If you do not update your anti virus software then it will not be able to catch any of the new variants that may come out.

The following is a list of tools and utilities that I like to suggest to people. This list is full of great tools and utilities to help you understand how you got infected and how to keep from getting infected again.

  1. AdAware - Another very powerful tool which searches and kills nasties that infect your system. AdAware and Spybot Search & Destroy compliment each other very well.
  2. SpywareBlaster - Great prevention tool to keep nasties from installing on your system.
  3. SpywareGuard - Works as a Spyware "Shield" to protect your computer from getting malware in the first place.
  4. IE-SpyAd - puts over 5000 sites in your restricted zone so you'll be protected when you visit innocent-looking sites that aren't actually innocent at all.
  5. Windows Updates - It is very important to make sure that both Internet Explorer and Windows are kept current with the latest critical security patches from Microsoft. To do this just start Internet Explorer and select Tools > Windows Update, and follow the online instructions from there.
  6. Google Toolbar - Free google toolbar that allows you to use the powerful Google search engine from the bar, but also blocks pop up windows.
  7. Trillian or Miranda-IM - These are Malware free Instant Messenger programs which allow you to connect to multiple IM services in one program! (AOL, Yahoo, ICQ, IRC, MSN)


To find out more information about how you got infected in the first place and some great guidelines to follow to prevent future infections you can read this article by Tony Klein

Smitfraud-C.

Unread postby david moorhouse » April 2nd, 2006, 10:27 am

Further problem. Spybot search & destroy has found Smitfraud-C.
in my computer. HKEY users, which I believe is the registry. It appears to be unable to remove it, even in safe mode, I assume because it is a running program. It gives me the option to go to the location. Cant I just delete it from there, or put it through the shredder?
Thanks again

Hi David,

Before you do anything, could you let me know exactly what key Spybot is flagging? It might just be a leftover entry, but I'd like to make sure it is.

Thanks,

Today 03rd april 2006 I have run spybot s&d again and it has found nothing. I assume from this that I am now clean.
Thank you for all you help
