Hello, and Thank You for taking the time to read this!

A couple of days ago my laptop (running Vista Service Pack 1) started to play up, mainly the internet was redirecting me to ebay or some tacky advertising. So I tried to use AVG and found it dissapeared, then I found that any internet search would not work if it used the phrase anti-virus or similar!!

Thankfully I was able to get on to Danniweb...

I have followed the 'Do This First' though have to point out my laptop frequently cuts out (a previous problem due to overheating - even with a heat mat with twin fans in it).

This has meant that the Logs may be slightly out-of-date, by which I mean they were run yesterday or day before, the reason for this is that the LAptop cut out either while running scans, or when I was trying to access the internet to post the results!

I did find that after running the programs as requested AVG did return and I was able to run a scan with that too (I have added that log at the end of the post).

so here goes:

Hello, and Thank You for taking the time to read this!
ps : AVG seems unable to remove, delete or do anything to this Trojan, if I empty the virus vault I assume this does nothing and allows it back into the system?
I look forward to hearing from any one kind enough to offer advice or help!!
Thanks in advance!

Hi Treadiculous,

You have contracted a particularly nasty malware. It is usually accompanied by a backdoor trojan that harvests passwords and other sensitive data. If you use this machine for financial transactions you should change your passwords via an uninfected machine.

-- Generally, in cases such as this, I recommend wiping the hard drive and reinstalling Windows.

If that is not a feasible option for you, we can try to clean it. One of the reasons it is difficult to clean is that you will likely lose your internet connection during the cleaning process due to the removal of the infected driver (afd.sys, that you noted) and an altered registry.

-- You will need a flash drive to transfer programs and scanlogs from the ill computer to one that you can use to post with.

-- Let me know how you'd like to proceed. This infection can be cleaned, but you'll never be able to trust the machine 100% due to the specific nature of the infection (rootkit).

Cheers :)

Thank You Loads for getting back to me so quickly!

I have been avoiding using this machine for financial systems, though I have entered into email accounts.

Would the Trojan be able to retrieve passwords from before the virus infected the system? I assume not, but maybe it is possible to access history to do this?

Is it possible to transfer data to an external hard drive or could this infect the external drive and data on it?

I would prefer not to re-install as I don't have a copy of Vista to begin the re-installation, but understand how problematic it can be to attempt to clean something, and the nagging sense that it may re-infect would prevent me from using the machine for anything but leisure.

I am planning on buying a new PC as the power cut out issue makes the machine too unreliable. I will look into getting a Vista installation disk and get back to you soon.

Thank you so much!!

Never assume with these malware - Here's a quick overview of this type of malware:
http://searchsecurity.techtarget.com/definition/RAT-remote-access-Trojan

These trojans can/may give a bad guy Full Control over your computer.
-- I am operating on the "better safe than sorry" principle here. There is no way to really know what data has been compromised (if any - there may be none) until it is too late. Then, you find out the hard way.
It is possible to pin down whether the backdoor is active or merely waiting/listening for further instructions - but, again, I prefer the BSTS principle :)

Is it possible to transfer data to an external hard drive or could this infect the external drive and data on it?

There is always risk of reinfection - you need to be careful what you back up. Documents, photos and the like are usually OK. I prefer to use an empty external drive and then scan the crap out of it before transferring the data back to a compy.

I would prefer not to re-install as I don't have a copy of Vista to begin the re-installation.....

That is typically the biggest issue - it'd be a whole lot easier if OEMs still included OS disks with new computers. Cheapskates!

We can clean this, but read the two links before making your decision.

Thank you so much!!

Happy to help :)

I managed to get the important files off the laptop (and scanned them - they seem okay), and today it won't start up.. so I'm happy to have my backed up files!!

I'm looking to re-install vista, so I guess this means that this is effectivly solved as I know what to do, and it has a very high chance of working (I hope!)..

Thanks once again, both for the useful advice and fro the prompt response to the questions.

You're welcome - happy to help :)

A reinstall will definitely do the trick. But, you also have to have your security measures in place immediately.
Get a good firewall on the laptop. I like the free Comodo firewall. They also provide Secure DNS and TrustConnect services which are great for laptops! - especially TrustConnect.

-- It is always a good idea to back up your data on a regular basis - especially with a laptop.

-- You ought to consider performing a "dust-ectomy" on the machine. There are dozens of "how to" videos and guides on the web if you google remove dust from laptop or something similar.

Best Luck :)
