I just sorted out a problem with these files yesterday - Prevx CSI found them, but I couldn't see them in explorer (set to view hidden/sys files) and a search didn't find them either. I booted with UBCD4Win and those files were visible with a43 explorer and I was able to delete them from there.

Re: Help with Trojan? Infected PC
 
Hello Crunchie and Cir,

Sorry I was off for so long. I work two jobs and just didn't get time last week. The trojan was still on my PC. It had blocked my browser from any useful internet access. I tried to run Malwarebytes, since it had at least got me to a state where I had internet, but something happened to it as well and would not run.

I had come across the UBCD4win too earlier in the week (and thanks for the tip Cir). Had access to a PC at work and was able to create the UBCD4win CD. Worked like a charm on my PC. Booted on the CD and found multiple files throughout the windows subdirectories with the TDSS prefix and deleted them. Ran the virus scanner built into the CD and it found several more infected files, deleted those as well. Rebooted back to my harddrive, Malwarebytes could now run and located infected files in restore. I turned restore off, rebooted, and turned it back on. Have run several scans with Malwarebytes and my Trend Micro security suite, both reporting the computer is now clean.

Here are the Malwarebytes HiJackThis log. Does everything look all right?

Can I get some some advice on what to keep and what/how to remove the downloaded programs I don't need which I've used through this process?

Thanks for all the help I've gotten so far.

Re: Help with Trojan? Infected PC
 
Let's get rid of Combofix now that we are finished with it.
  • Click START then RUN
  • Now type Combofix /u in the runbox and click OK. Note the space between the X and the U, it needs to be there.

  • When shown the disclaimer, Select "2"

The above procedure will:
  • Delete the following:
    • ComboFix and its associated files and folders.
    • VundoFix backups, if present
    • The C:\Deckard folder, if present
    • The C:_OtMoveIt folder, if present
  • Reset the clock settings.
  • Hide file extensions, if required.
  • Hide System/Hidden files, if required.
  • Reset System Restore.

==========

Congratulations! Your log looks clean.

===============

Now that your PC is clean you need to follow these easy steps to keeping it this way:

Download CCleaner and install, then run it. It will clear out your temp folders.
  1. Uncheck "Cookies" under "Internet Explorer".
  2. Click on Run Cleaner in the lower right-hand corner. This can take quite a while to run.
  3. Close when finished.

====

An alternative to Ccleaner is ATF Cleaner.
Download ATF (Atribune Temp File) Cleaner by Atribune to your desktop.

Double-click ATF Cleaner.exe to open it.

Under Main choose:
Windows Temp
Current User Temp
All Users Temp
Cookies
Temporary Internet Files
Prefetch
Java Cache
*The other boxes are optional*
Then click the Empty Selected button.

Firefox:
Click Firefox at the top and choose: Select All
Click the Empty Selected button.
NOTE: If you would like to keep your saved passwords, please click NO at the prompt.

Opera:
Click Opera at the top and choose: Select All
Click the Empty Selected button.
NOTE: If you would like to keep your saved passwords, please click NO at the prompt.

====

Use an alternative browser! Download FireFox and give it a run. It is far more secure than Internet Explorer. Or, you can get Opera, which in my opinion, is better still.

====

Use a firewall. It is an essential part of your computers security. There is a link to a good, free firewall in my signature.

====

Install and keep updated,
Spybot S&D.
Run it on a regular basis, following the maker's recommendations.

====

Install an anti-virus. There are some good, free AV's available today. Make sure that it is updated regularly and have it scan your system often.

====

Check for Windows Updates. Microsoft regularly post updates for your systems safe running. Make sure to take advantage of this. Reboot when installed and return to make sure there are no others.

=====

For XP users.
After something like this it is a good idea to Flush the Restore Points and start fresh.
To flush the XP system Restore Points.

Go to Start | Run and type msconfig and press enter.

When msconfig opens, click the Launch System Restore Button.
On the next page, click the System Restore Settings link on the left.

Check the box labelled 'Turn off System restore'.

Reboot. Go back in and Turn System Restore Back on. A new Restore Point will be created.

Note that all previous restore points will be lost.

===============

Please mark this thread as solved if all is well.

If you have any more problems, post back.

-

Happy surfing,

crunchie.
