First off, new face here, but my gf just got her computer infected with this. What I did was ended the svchasts.exe and the police pro services as soon as I could, which allowed me enough down time of it restarting itself to install file assassin. (if you're not familiar with file assassin, it deletes the files that viruses and mal-ware "lock"). I got it installed and deleted all of the files in the windows police pro program folder. I then rebooted the computer, full knowing the registry keys were still there, especially when it popped up all the dialogue boxes saying "Error: and then listed the file path of all of the executable files that try to run on start up" (in their own windows of course) basically aknowledging the fact that the computer wanted to run them, but it was blocking them. After that, I got MBAM installed I am currently running a full system scan to try and get rid of the rest of the reg key traces and such that are still sitting around on the computer. Big thanks to everyone here!

My parents PC got this today and I'm trying to get rid of it for them. I've booted up into SafeMode and deleted Windows Police Pro and the folder from Program Files. I then deleted the processes but still can't run MBA-M. Now what do I do??? I booted back to normal mode and can see my TaskManager however I can't run any programs. It says program to big to load into memory......

First of all, welcome to daniweb to you both;

twolfcorner2009, you need to create your own thread. This one is rusluckplay64's thread and though you may have the same problem you do not have the same computer. It is impossible to work with two different posters and computers within the same thread.
You need to make your own and post your logs there and somebody will help you. Please give your thread a distinctive title so that people will know what you are dealing with ok? Somebody will be most happy to work with you to be sure this infection is cleaned.

Now to rusluckplay64 we really need a bit more information from you. Exactly what symptoms are you showing, just saying "same problem" doesn't tell us much. We don't know your operating system, I do see you are running McAfee but really other than that I don't know anything. Can you give us some more to go on...what are the symptoms, what have you tried...programs I mean. Can you get to safe mode with networking? Are you posting from the infected computer?

yeah, that's my fault. I hit reply on the old thread, apparently while I was typing my post, it was labeled as solved and locked, so it by default got posted here. i did not mean to post that into this thread, it was mean to be posted into the original 6 page thread stating what I did to correct my problem in hopes it might help someone else. Once again my apologies to both of you, didn't mean for it to be here!

They are running XP SP 3 Media Center Edition.

Every time I try to double click an application it won't run and get some dialog box saying to purchase Windows Police Pro. My parents use McAfee for virus protection, but somehow managed to get this on their machine. I posted last night from their infected machine via normal mode. I can get into the machine via Safe Mode with Networking and deleted Windows Pro from Add/Remove software and deleted the file folder in Program Files. I did the Dos (Command.com) steps from the other thread and was able to install MBA-M and HIJackThis via DOS. I ran MBA-M and it found several issues but was still running when I left. I will be heading over there after work to finish getting rid of this bug

Post the MBA-M log when you get there.

Now post a HiJackThis Full System Scan log.

Here is the list of the process after I rebooted after using MBA-M. Everything seems to be working ok now, but how do I make sure I get everything out of the Registry? I ran HIJackThis and nothing wrong came back!

I didn't ask for a Process list, I asked for a HiJackThis log. You have TeaTimer in there, it may interfere with fixes. MBA-M all ready cleaned out the registry.

How do I save out the HiJackThis log file? After I ran MBA-M, I ran HiJackThis and then I was able to update McAfee and SpyBot Search and Destroy (which TeaTimer is from). Do you not recommend SpyBot? Plus I switched my parents over to Google Chrome instead of IE since I think that is how they got this virus.

When you open HiJackThis click the So system scan and save the log file button...first one at the top. It will scan and when the scan is complete wait a few minutes and the log should open in Notepad, be sure that word wrap is not turned on.
Go to the top of the log, choose Edit, Copy, then come here that open a reply. Place your cursor within that reply and Right Click with your mouse and choose Paste.

Spybot itself is an Excellent program. The TeaTimer portion is used to monitor and sometimes automatically stop changes made to the registry. As you can see by the infection...this didn't work. The infection did put itself into the registry. But often times when doing fixes TeaTimer WILL stop those necessary removals. So that is why I recommend you KEEP Spybot for scanning and removal BUT TURN OFF the TeaTimer portion. To do this do the following:
* Run Spybot-S&D in Advanced Mode
* If it is not already set to do this, go to the Mode menu
select
Advanced Mode
* On the left hand side, click on Tools
* Then click on the Resident icon in the list
* Uncheck
Resident TeaTimer
and OK any prompts.
* Restart your computer
Now when you run Updates to Spybot just don't download any TeaTimer updates either.

Honestly, as far as how they got the infection, you are very possibly correct. There must be a glitch in IE which is allowing this onto computers. As you can see we have seen numerous infections by this thing in just the last 48 hours! I would suggest also that you might try Firefox browser or Opera, both are very good browsers and more secure. I have tried the Google Chrome, just didn't like the interface of it so i removed it. I use Firefox all the time, and I also have Opera though I rarely use it only because I am used to Firefox. I rarely if ever use IE.
You can get an IE plugin for Firefox which will allow Windows Updates through Firefox.
