Solution May have Virus/Spyware/Aliens? or IE Hijacked

  #1  
Nov 30th, 2004
:eek: I tried posting a new thread on my problem and couldn't on any forum. I was getting really frustrated. Now I can..whoopie!

Ok, here is my problem: I think my IE Browser may have been hijacked. I read a lot of threads about this and have downloaded Hijack This and CSW Shredder. I ran them both and have posted the reports in this email.

My IE is not only running way to slow, but I am consistantly getting "Page Cannot Be Displayed" error messages when trying to view webpages.

I have Windows XP Home, IE 6.0, Ad-aware 6.0, AVG Free Edition, No-Ads and Spyware Doctor. I have run them all. I have gotten several alerts under AVG about Trojan Horses SDbot and Rameh. It said it healed them, but when I restart my comp, they come right back. I did have Norton Anti Virus for awhile. but everytime I started my comp up it gave me a message saying something or someone had been trying to adjust it's settings and I needed to restart my comp. It did this everytime, yet when I scanned with it, it never found anything, except a Bloodhound. So I removed Norton from my comp. I didn't care for it anyway.

These are the things AVG and Spyware Doctor have "fixed, healed or removed" so far:

Bloodhound.W32.1 (found by Norton and supposedly removed 3 times)
ldoxer.exe ("healed" by AVG)
wuamgrd.exe ("healed" by AVG) but got it 6 times
bling.exe ("healed" by AVG)
ATPartners.dll Trojan Horse downloader Rameh.E in my Windows/System32/dllcache ("healed" by AVG 10 times)

and as of starting my comp up today at 8:40 pm and running Spyware Doctor, AVG and Ad-Aware:

TFTP Trojan Horse IRC/Backdoor/SdBot.48T ("healed" by AVG)
Tracking Cookie Cookie File (doubleclick.net) meredith@doubleclick.net (Spyware Doctor removed)

Also, when I first connect to the internet, my IE starts up pages directing me to web sites that have porn on them. It does this all by itself. I was able to add them all on No-Ads so they won't load now, but they leave these white and blue box looking applications everytime. They are called cat, pussy, loud, add and ybsex. I delete these, but they come back every time I connect to the internet. These are the sites that come up:

"http://home.no/sopo/pussy.html"
"http://216.117.190.175/momsex.html"
"http://oddworldz.com/noksha/add.html"


This is driving me nuts. It's been 4 months now. Microsoft won't help me and neither will Gateway (I have a Gateway Laptop).

I have no idea about computers and most of the instructions given in the same type of problem threads made no sense to me. Could you please explain to me how to fix these problems, like I was 10 years old? LOL. I'd appreciate it.

Anyway, here are the reports I got from Hijack This and CSW Shredder:

You appear to have a lot of nasties in there. I'm talking worms and stuff, not just a browser hijack.
So probably the best place to start is to go to http://www.trendmicro.com/download/dcs.asp and download sysclean, and this page http://www.trendmicro.com/download/pattern.asp for the latest pattern file.
Unzip the pattern file into the same folder as sysclean, then run sysclean. It will take a while but hopefully will remove some of those worms. Make sure it's in a user area with administrator priviledges.

The last part said it cleaned all of them out, but I wasn't so sure so I ran Sysclean again. At the end of it it said 0 viruses. I'm still not so sure. When I restarted my comp and connected to the internet, IE did the same hting it had been doing....connecting to sites all by itself. It also left those blue application boxes behind again. Here is the list of websites:

http://216.117.190.175/momsex.html

http://home.no/sopo/loud.html

http://home.no/sopo/pussy.html


IE is still running slowly. I ran Spyware Doctor, Ad-Aware 6.0, AVG Anti Virus, and Hijack this. Here is the current Hijack This log:

I have no idea what any of this means. I am so frustrated and tired and angry with all of this. What else can I do? Besides throwing this thing into an old well??

Any help will be most appreciated.

You should probably boot into Safe Mode for this. Scan with HJT and have it fix the following entries:
R1 - HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main,Default_Search_URL = http://red.clientapps.yahoo.com/cus...//www.yahoo.com

O4 - HKCU\..\RunOnce: [Win32s USB Drivers] spoolcsv.exe

After you've done that, go to C:\WINDOWS and delete:
GWMDMpi.exe

Then go to C:\WINDOWS\System32 and delete:
spoolcsv.exe
winxp2.exe
syswin32.exe
svcload.exe
NOTEPAD.EXE
winupd.exe

On the C drive, find this and delete it as well:
c:\gmsex.exe

Reboot normally, make sure all browser windows are closed, scan with HJT and post a new log.

You can Use Firewire, and Delete all IExplorer files, and registry keys. then Download IExplorer from the FireWire connection between the 2 PC's. Or you can Reformat. But no one wants that.

Things seem to be moving a lot better now, but a lot of webpages I go to load, but at the bottom on the bar it says "Done, but with errors on page." Some of the pictures on these pages don't show up. Their boxes have those little colored boxes in them.

And as I am writting this, Spybot S & D popped up a message saying this
:

Spybot S&D

Category System Startup global entry
Change Value Added
Entry Windows Update
New Data slmss.exe

I went ahead and clicked "deny changes" because I didn't know what it was. If I should accept this please let me know.

I am going to run all of my spyware and virus scanning things and see if anything else pops up and I'll post my results in a bit.

Is there anything else I should delete or change? It still doesn't seem quite right.

Thanks for all your help!!

You still have virus/trojan/etc. infections. Also- from some reports I've read, the NoAds program you installed seems to be questionable. It appears that it may have some "hidden nasties" of its own; personally, I would uninstall it.

1. Have HijackThis fix the following:

O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [Win32s USB Drivers] spoolcsv.exe
O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [Microsoft WinUpdate] syswin32.exe
O4 - HKLM\..\RunServices: [Microsoft WinUpdate] syswin32.exe
O4 - HKCU\..\Run: [NoAds] "C:\Program Files\NoAds\NoAds.exe"
O4 - HKCU\..\Run: [Microsoft WinUpdate] syswin32.exe
O15 - Trusted Zone: http://www.uproar.com
O15 - Trusted Zone: http://deskwx.weatherbug.com


2. Turn off XP's System Restore function; instructions are here.

3. - Reboot into safe mode (you get to the safe mode boot option by hitting the F8 key as your computer is starting up)

- Open Windows Explorer, and in the Folder Options->View settings under the Tools menu, select "show hidden files and folders", and uncheck "Hide protected operating system files".

- For every user account listed under C:\Documents and Settings, delete the entire contents of these folders:

1. Local Settings\Temp
2. Cookies
3. History
4. Local Settings\Temporary Internet Files\Content.IE5

- Find and delete the following files:

spoolcsv.exe
syswin32.exe

- Delete the entire C:\Program Files\NoAds folder.

- Delete the entire content of your C:\Windows\Temp folder.

Note- If you get any messages concerning the deletion of system files such as desktop.ini or index.dat, just choose to delete those files; they'll be automatically regenerated by Windows if needed. Windows will allow you to delete the versions of those files which exist in sub-folders within the main Temp/Temorary folders, but might not let you delete the versions of those files that exist in the main Temp folders themselves; this is normal and OK.

- Empty your Recycle Bin.

- Reboot normally.

Ok, I uninstalled No-Ads and deleted everything having to do with it that was left over. I also, did everything you suggested.

While trying to post this, I kept getting that dreaded error message, "Page cannot be displayed and temporarily unavailable" crap all over again when I hit reply. I've spent the last 6 hours trying to reply to your last instructions. No pics are showing up on this page at all. No smileys, no font, size or color box...nothing and I have that error on page message too. I hit refresh over 50 times and finally got some of this page to display properly.

When I start my comp up and Windows comes up, I am now getting an error message saying it can't find Spoolsv.exe. I know you had me delete this. Is it something important? Should I have not deleted it?

I am still getting 5 DSO Exploits everytime I run Spyware Doctor. What are these? I delete them, but they come back everytime. Also, it detects an IE Browser Plugin everytime. It says it's a Medium Security risk, but I go ahead and let it delete it. Yet it comes back everytime, too.

I am still getting those yellow triangles with the exclamation in them saying "Error on page" down where the bar says "Opening" and the web sites address. I came in here, and all of the pictures that would normally show, before I had these problems, had the box with the red X in them. I right clicked on them and chose "show picture" and the red X changed to the box with the colored square, circle and triangle thing. Not sure about this. That's never happened until I started having these problems.

Anyway, before I post my current Hijack This log, I wanted to ask some questions:

1) Is the Free Edition AVG Anti Virus a good program to use? I cannot afford to buy an anti virus program, so if you know of a free on that's really good, please let me know.

2) Should I install Windows SP2? I have heard many bad things about it.

3) Is there any other spyware/adware programs I can download for free besides Spy Bot S&D? I don't really care for this program. Everything I seem to do, I get an alarm from it asking me if I want to allow or deny some change it detected and since I have no idea what some of these changes are. It's was too confusing for me.

Ok, I think that's it for now. Here is the current Hijack This Log:

If I think of anything else, I'll let you know. Thanks for the help so far. My browser is moving a bit quicker for this site, but I haven't checked out any others yet.

If you can think of anything else after analyzing the latest Hijack This Log, let me know. I'm almost game for anything..LOL.

Cheers'

Re: May have Virus/Spyware/Aliens? or IE Hijacked

um... dmr said to delete spoolcsv.exe, not spoolsv.exe... Look in your recycle bin to see if it's still there. If spoolsv.exe is in your recycle bin then restore it.

DSO exploits can be ignored - it's a bug in spybot. there is a fix you can download but it's not worth it.

1) AVG is good
2) umm... I have it installed, but there isn't really a concensus of opinion on whether to go for it or not. In any case you need to get your spyware cleaned up first. I'm not sure why it's come back this time.
3)Ad-Aware from www.lavasoft.de is good. Normally I use it with Spybot though.

Let's try this:

alt + ctrl + del
end the following processes:
C:\WINDOWS\System32\winupd.exe
C:\WINDOWS\System32\winxp2.exe
C:\WINDOWS\System32\svcload.exe
C:\WINDOWS\System32\syswin32.exe

Then tick the following:
R1 - HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main,Default_Search_URL = http://red.clientapps.yahoo.com/cus...//www.yahoo.com
R1 - HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main,Search Bar = http://red.clientapps.yahoo.com/cus.../search/ie.html
R1 - HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main,Search Page = http://red.clientapps.yahoo.com/cus...//www.yahoo.com
R0 - HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main,Start Page = http://red.clientapps.yahoo.com/cus...//www.yahoo.com
R1 - HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\SearchURL,(Default) = http://red.clientapps.yahoo.com/cus...//www.yahoo.com
R0 - HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main,Local Page = C:\WINDOWS\about.htm

O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [Windows Update 2] winupd.exe
O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [Winupdate Service] winxp2.exe
O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [KernelFaultCheck] %systemroot%\system32\dumprep 0 -k
O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [svcload] svcload.exe
O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [Microsoft WinUpdate] syswin32.exe
O4 - HKLM\..\RunServices: [Win32s USB Drivers] spoolcsv.exe
O4 - HKLM\..\RunServices: [Windows Update 2] winupd.exe
O4 - HKLM\..\RunServices: [Winupdate Service] winxp2.exe
O4 - HKLM\..\RunServices: [Microsoft WinUpdate] syswin32.exe
O4 - HKLM\..\RunServices: [svcload] svcload.exe

O4 - HKCU\..\Run: [Win32s USB Drivers] spoolcsv.exe
O4 - HKCU\..\Run: [Windows Update 2] winupd.exe
O4 - HKCU\..\Run: [Microsoft WinUpdate] syswin32.exe

O16 - DPF: {739E8D90-2F4C-43AD-A1B8-66C356FCEA35} (RunExeActiveX.RunExe) - file://C:\Program Files\Gateway\helpspot\RunExeActiveX.CAB

Basically we need to remove any instances of the following files:
winupd.exe, winxp2.exe, syswin32.exe, spoolcsv.exe and svcload.exe. So if you see them anywhere else in your log, tick them.

Then finally choose 'fix checked'.

Next reboot into safe mode by repeatedly pressing f8 during startup. It will give you a boot menu, so press safe mode when it appears.

to quote dmr
- Open Windows Explorer, and in the Folder Options->View settings under the Tools menu, select "show hidden files and folders", and uncheck "Hide protected operating system files".

Delete the following:
C:\WINDOWS\System32\winupd.exe
C:\WINDOWS\System32\winxp2.exe
C:\WINDOWS\System32\svcload.exe
C:\WINDOWS\System32\syswin32.exe
C:\WINDOWS\System32\spoolcsv.exe

Go to start -> find -> files or folders and search for all those files again. You may find them in the prefetch folder, so delete them if they occur in there. You may also have to go under the advanced options tag and tell it to search system files etc.

Finally be careful that they are spelt right!
