updates blocked - maybe renos?

Expand Post »
Hi:

Yesterday I got hit with a trojan. I am running windows XP Pro SP3, using ZoneAlarm version:8.0.298.000 (free) and Symantec-Endpoint Protection AV. Also have SpywareDoctor (free version), WinPatrol (free), AdAware and SuperAntiSpyware (free). I cannot visit websites like windows update, malwarebytes.com or uninstall-spyware.com, and cannot update any anti-spyware. All updates are blocked - Malwarebytes gives me an error message with error 732(12009, 0); the others just say I should check my settings. I can, however, get to most other website and I can download programs so long as they are provided on a third party website where I can right-click save them. Using this method I downloaded Malwarebytes and Trend Micro's rootkitbuster beta. I am able to run these programs. Rootkitbuster and Symantec find no problems.

AdAware and WinPatrol saw the thing on the way in; Adaware removed some of it, WinPatrol blocked it from running (more than it already had), and malwarebytes removed a bit more (see below). From WinPatrol history the troubles were most likely initiated with Cwf, CWG and/or FJ5MWNZTHI.

From Malwarebytes log (3 problems):
Registry Keys Infected:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\XML (Trojan.FakeAlert) -> Quarantined and deleted successfully.
Files Infected:
C:\WINDOWS\msa.exe (Trojan.Agent) -> Quarantined and deleted successfully.
C:\WINDOWS\system32\spool\prtprocs\w32x86\00000244.tmp (Trojan.FakeAlert) -> Quarantined and deleted successfully

From AdAware:
Win32.Hoax.Renos\BE
-> Quarantined but not removed

I think it is the renos hoax, and obviously the thing is still in my machine, because I cannot update my security programs and cannot go to malwarebytes or windows update websites. I can post HJT and/or DDS logs, but cannot run gmer - my computer freezes.
Please Help??

Re: updates blocked - maybe renos?
We need to see the Full MBA-M log, not just what was found. Please give us a HiJackThis log also to begin with. I would advise against running Beta versions of any program but especially a remover program. These are TEST versions and not cleared for full release really and certainly not verified as fully safe yet.

The MBA-M error Error 732 means the following: Error updating the database or product

Thanks! Glad to have some help with this. I will post the MBAM log first, followed by the HJT log.
