Hi;
Windows XP; i've run smitfraudfix in safe mode, spydoctor with anti-virus, SuperAntiVirus, and SpyBot to no avail. i couldn't get SpyNoMore to download without hanging up and going non-responsive. I'm currently posting from another computer, i will (hopefully be able to) download Hijackthis and combofix when i get to the infected computer and will post the logs here. It's very difficult for me to get online with the infected machine because of the browser hijacker and multiple browser pages it triggers. Reinstalling the OS isn't an option. I need help on this one, would like to shoot those responsible for this! I rarely surf the web with the machine it's on, i think it came through with an Acrobat update done while trying to view a product catalog. Any help would be appreciated, i've burned up 2 days on this already!

Download this file from one of the following links :

http://download.bleepingcomputer.com/sUBs/ComboFix.exe
http://www.techsupportforum.com/sectools/combofix.exe

1. Make sure that Combofix is downloaded to and run from, your desktop.

2. Double click combofix.exe & follow the prompts.
3. When finished, ComboFix generates a pop up log which can also be found at C:\ComboFix.txt. Post that log in your next reply, along with a new hijackthis log.

Note:
Do not mouseclick combofix's window whilst it's running. That may cause it to stall.

first off, thank you for the assistance. this is going to be a bit tedious and drawn out, as i can only commit bits and pieces of my day to working on it. i couldn't get reconnected to the internet (posting from another computer at present) so it shut it down for the night and will have another go it it and doing step two in the morning. thank you!

Hi;
fate just likes to make my life miserable. it seems that the connection problem is on my providers end, spoke with their tech support today, ran some line checks and found out that it's an outside problem. 24-48 hour repair ticket in with my other nemesis, Verizon. I will likely be posting the combofix results in a few days.

No worries. It never rains but it pours :D

ok, so i've gotten my dsl reestablished, but big problem. when i restart or power up from cold, it shows all the normal loading screens but all i get is a bsod. no start menu, desktop icons etc. does the same thing in safe mode. am i totally screwed? it was doing this occasionally the last 2 days working on it, but it always seemed to bring up the desktop after a couple of reboots. now, i get nothing, tried it about 10 times in normal and safe mode. (

I would try a system repair if you have your XP cd. May also want to attempt a cmos clear by moving the jumpers or removing the mobo battery. One of my pc's would only go as far as the XP logo then quit. Resetting the cmos fixed it.

remove & reinstall the battery, or just pull it altogether and start up?

Remove it for a few minutes, then reinstall it.

ok,l seems it takes about an hour for the desktop to appear, weirdly, things are running a bit ( not much) smoother today. the combofix link provides a download, however when i run them (tried from both sites) they go to the 2nd cmd scree, preparing to run, then it gives me an expired copy message then uninstalls itself.

meantime, i ran hijack this again jsut for kicks

the combofix link provides a download, however when i run them (tried from both sites) they go to the 2nd cmd scree, preparing to run, then it gives me an expired copy message then uninstalls itself.

Seems like the tools designer has neutered it :(.

Can you please do the following.


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

Please download VundoFix.exe
to your desktop.

  • Double-click VundoFix.exe to run it.
  • Click the Scan for Vundo button.
  • Once it's done scanning, click the Remove Vundo button.
  • You will receive a prompt asking if you want to remove the files, click YES
  • Once you click yes, your desktop will go blank as it starts removing Vundo.
  • When completed, it will prompt that it will reboot your computer, click OK.
  • Please post the contents of C:\vundofix.txt and a new HijackThis log.

Note: It is possible that VundoFix encountered a file it could not remove.
In this case, VundoFix will run on reboot, simply follow the above
instructions starting from "Click the Scan for Vundo button." when
VundoFix appears at reboot.
===============

Scan with HijackThis and then place a check next to all the following, if present:


O2 - BHO: (no name) - {A95B2816-1D7E-4561-A202-68C0DE02353A} - C:\WINDOWS\system32\hnxkjdav.dll

O3 - Toolbar: (no name) - {BA52B914-B692-46c4-B683-905236F6F655} - (no file)
O3 - Toolbar: Security Toolbar - {11A69AE4-FBED-4832-A2BF-45AF82825583} - C:\WINDOWS\system32\hnxkjdav.dll

O20 - Winlogon Notify: gebxuvu - gebxuvu.dll (file missing)
O20 - Winlogon Notify: hnxkjdav - C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM32\hnxkjdav.dll


Now, close all instances of Internet Explorer and any other windows you have open except HiJackThis, click "Fix checked".

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

Locate and delete the following item(s), if present. Make sure you are able to view system and hidden files/ folders:

files...

C:\WINDOWS\system32\hnxkjdav.dll
C:\WINDOWS\system32\mkidovjq.dll

-

Note that some of these file(s)/folder(s) may or may not be present. If present, and cannot be deleted because they're 'in use', try deleting them in Safe Mode by doing the following:

  • Restart your computer
  • After hearing your computer beep once during startup, but before the Windows icon appears, press F8.
  • Instead of Windows loading as normal, a menu should appear.

Select the first option to run Windows in Safe Mode hit enter.

-

Reboot.

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

After rebooting, rescan with hijackthis and post back a new log. Please let me know how your pc is now.

fixed 3 files from list, going to check the system 32 folder for those other two files listed. also i noticed 1 other file under 03 toolbar with a no file at the end, same alphanumeric string as the one ending with hnxkjdava.dll i left it be.

ok, had to go into safe mode to delete mkidovjqa.dll, made sure to view all, didn't spot the other .dll file

here's teh latest hijack this, all seems well, please post if any special tool removal instructions are needed, otherwise you can hopefully chalk this up as another "solved" this site and your help are absolutely fantastic! Many thanx!!

Sorry for the late reply but my internet has been down.

Please download SmitfraudFix (by S!Ri)
Extract the content (a folder named SmitfraudFix) to your Desktop.

Open the SmitfraudFix folder and double-click smitfraudfix.cmd
Select option #1 - Search by typing 1 and press "Enter"; a text file will appear, which lists infected files (if present).
Please copy/paste the content of that report into your next reply.

Note : process.exe is detected by some antivirus programs (AntiVir, Dr.Web, Kaspersky) as a "RiskTool"; it is not a virus, but a program used to stop system processes. Antivirus programs cannot distinguish between "good" and "malicious" use of such programs, therefore they may alert the user.

Select the first option to run Windows in Safe Mode hit enter.

Reboot.

looks ok. how are things now?

Things are running pretty nicely, thank you very much. eliminating that last one seemed to knock off a bit of browser lag, but given that my wireless connection only runs 1-2 bars out of 5 because of proximity to the router, there's not much i can do about that--already have it boosted. i think you can chalk another one up in your "Win" column. Again, thanks very much for the help.

You are welcome :).
