If you formatted correctly, there is no way that it can still be there.

==

Download Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware ( http://www.majorgeeks.com/Malwarebytes_Anti-Malware_d5756.htmll ) to your desktop.

* Double-click mbam-setup.exe and follow the prompts to install the program.
* At the end, be sure to checkmark the Update Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware and Launch Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware, then click Finish.
* If an update is found, it will download and install the latest version.
* Once the program has loaded, select Perform full scan, then click Scan.
* When the scan is complete, click OK, then Show Results to view the results.
* Be sure that everything is checked, and click Remove Selected.
* When completed, a log will open in Notepad.
* Post the log back here.

Make sure that you restart the computer.

The log can also be found here:
C:\Documents and Settings\Username\Application Data\Malwarebytes\Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware\Logs\log-date.txt
Or at C:\Program Files\Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware\Logs\log-date.txt

Post new HJT log.

Format completelety deletes the data on the specified disk partition. So it must have solved your problem. But if you have more than one disk partition (such as c,D,e) it can still remain at unformatten partition and invades the newly installed OS. Please try Kaspersky Internet Security Sute (KIS) 2009 from the producers web site. You can evaluate it for 30 days. Update the virus database and make a complete search at your all partitions. This must solve the problem of yours.

Kaspersky is good, but I have seen plenty of pc's with Kaspersky installed that still get infected with this :)

Everything looks Clean.

Reformatting removes EVERYTHING, so you will not have an infected system after reformatting.

If you are file sharing between the pc's it is.

Download fixwareout from the link below. (Attached)


Save it to your desktop and run it. Click Next, then Install, make sure "Run fixit" is checked and click Finish.
The fix will begin; follow the prompts.
You will be asked to reboot your computer; please do so.
Your system may take longer than usual to load; this is normal.
Once the desktop loads post the text that will open (report.txt) and a new Hijackthis log please.

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.
