Hi all!!

This is my first post here (but I've been on other forums for many a year now), so please feel free to correct any discrepancies I may put up here.

Anyway, I've got a 'problem' - of sorts - that I'm hoping someone here can help me with. My own research into fixing my issue brought me to this website - and my post.

My laptop recently got what I believe to be a rather nasty virus/hijack this past week. I'm sure this was partly because my wife had disabled my virus protection programs (her way of trying to make my computer run faster - but I digress).

While I'm reasonably certain that after running my virus/spyware removal after the fact got rid of the foreign invader, I'm sure that it left a little 'parting gift' somewhere in my system. Here's a rundown of the symptoms:

  • Cannot change the background (except by actually bringing up a picture in Windows Picture Viewer, right-clicking the pic, and setting it as the background)
  • Cannot get online (either by direct connection to my Clearwire modem or wirelessly through my Linksys router)
  • No USB drives are being recognized (I've got two 2gb thumb drives and a couple of Iomega external drives)

In reading what I thought was a related thread from someone with similar symptoms:

http://www.daniweb.com/forums/thread36931.html

...I've attempted the following:

  • Tried to d/l the smitfraud.reg file, but got a 404 (page cannot be found) error
  • Ran the HijackThis utility (thankfully, I'd previously downloaded this, so it was already in place), had it "scan only", and saved a log in my Documents folder. Since I had no way of getting online to post it, I'm currently in the process of manually typing it out to post it from my desktop (whew!!)
  • Also (thankfully) had the following pre-downloaded to my HD: ATF Cleaner, Spybot S&D, Glary Utilities, and Registry Mechanic (of which, only the first two were installed prior to this issue)
  • Per another post I read, ran ATF Cleaner
  • Tried to run Spybot S&D, but it will not run until I connect to the internet to get any recent updates it may have (and since I have no internet access, that becomes an epic FAIL)
  • Also ran MalwareBytes Anti-Malware and AVG Anti-Virus again, but since I've had no internet access, it won't let me get too far until it gets an update, also.
  • Removed all previous system restore points (probably not the best move at this point, but still another troubleshooting step I read about in another post)

At this point, I'm kinda at an impasse. I've got full functionality of all of the programs on the computer, but this issue is a great inconvenience, as I use my laptop for music engineering projects.

I've read the "Read me before posting a request for assistance" stickie, and am in the process of trying some of the other suggestions listed therein - although, since I don't have any internet, some of the suggestions (i.e., Kapersky Online Scanner, Panda Active Scan, etc..) won't work.

I initially considered an erase & install of the HD, but 1) I no longer (through moving, mostly) have the original disks that came with the computer, and 2) I also no longer have some of the more 'esoteric' - and expensive - programs I've got on the computer.

In any case, I just thought I'd post this to see if anyone has any suggestions as to what I should (or should NOT) do next. I'll post my HJT log as soon as I finish typing it up. And thanks in advance for your patience with this "NoOb".

The thread you have noted is well over 4 years old so very possible the infection and things done wouldn't be the same. To Update MBA-M you can go to http://www.gt500.org/malwarebytes/database.jsp download an update. Save it to a disk or flash drive and then when you hit update MBA-M just choose to update FROM that location. It won't be the most recent update but current enough to do the job, rather than running a program without updates. Do a Full Scan and choose to Remove every thing that is found.
Reboot the computer and run another HJT scan. Since you HAVE the log do as below.
Open your HJT log, go up to Edit, Select All, Copy
Then come back here and hit reply. Paste the log. We prefer them to be copy/pasted anyway.

Hello again,

Thanks for the reply, jholland. However, since my laptop - for some unknown reason thus far - was not able to recognize any of my flash drives or external hard drives, I could not use those as an option to download any update.

However, taking another part of your advice, I tried the same theory using my disk drive. Initially, I didn't consider this because I didn't have any 'burnable' media (broke and under-employed will do that to a fella). But the computer gods decided to smile upon me in the form of a neighbor that was nice enough to 'loan' me a CD-RW.

So, I did what you said and downloaded the database update for MBA-M to the disk, took that to my laptop, and hit 'update'. However, based on what you were saying in your post, I was ASSuming that MBA-M would display some option as to where I wanted to pull the update from. But nothing came up except the following 'fail' alert:

"Update failed. Make sure you are connected to the Internet and your firewall is set to allow Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware to access the internet."

Now, my thought at this point was that maybe I'm running an older version (mine, at that point, was 1.19, with the database on 1930-something).

At this point, I should note which versions of what software I have currently loaded up on the laptop:

So, now that I know I have some way to get stuff IN and OUT of the computer, I went ahead and uploaded version 1.36 of MBA-M, as well as the newer database (2110, IIRC). I also saved a copy of my HJT log, which is copied and pasted at the end of this post.

I haven't run anything else at this point, because I didn't want to do anything that would impede any assistance I'd get. So, let me know - if possible - if the log looks suspect, and what steps I should take from this point forward to clear things up.

Thanks again, in advance.

With the exception of Spybot everything else you list there is way, way out of date.
One thing you must do first is Disable the Spybot TeaTimer. It will interfere with fixes which need to be done.

* 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

Current version of HiJackThis is 2.0.2

AVG 7.5 is of course not longer current and your version of MBA-M is as you stated, also way out of date, the current version is 1.36 and database version is 2162. This would likely be the reason you got the message you did.

Uninstall BOTH HiJackThis and MBA-M and if you So if you can prevail on your neighbor once more this is what I would do. Download both of the new versions to that disk and install them on the infected computer. HJT wouldn't need an update but MBA-M will certainly be more current than the one you now have and even if it cannot be updated for the moment you certainly will get a more up to date version and should be able to run a Full Scan with it and remove problems.

Frankly I would also suggest you remove that AVG program also, it is doing no good really. You can also download a new Anti-virus program, I would recommend Avira this can't be updated either but you would definitely have a more up to date av than you do now.
Even with this log from the older version of HJT it is evident that you have the rogue Anti-Spyware Program Antispyware2008 on your system. The tool of choice for removal is MBA-M. So this should be your first step. Even with the inability to update it, if you install this on your computer this would definitely remove most of it.

Run even the non-updated versions of Avira and especially MBA-M and BE CERTAIN to have both programs REMOVE ALL ITEMS FOUND, then REBOOT. Run the new HJT save the logs of all and post those back here.

DISCLAIMER This post is about to become verrrry long, so bear with me. Thanks.

Hey all,

And thanks to your suggestions, jholland1964!! I finally got my desktop back!! And sorry I didn't post sooner - we're in the process of having a garage sale, and just about everything we're selling was sitting in front of my desktop. Ergo, no internet access through attrition. :P

So, here's where I stand:

So, I shut off TeaTimer and rebooted the computer to start (not too keen on that aspect of S&D anyway, so it'll probably stay off). Then I went to work.

First thing I did was delete HJT and MBA-M. I also went ahead and - per your recommendation - deleted AVG. I've relied heavily on that one for a while now, but I wasn't married to it. Then I went ahead and got Avira.

As a side note, I'm totally liking that Avira so far. Once I'm totally virus-free, we'll see how much I REALLY like it.

I also got the new version of HJT that you mentioned. But in looking for MBA-M, I ran into a bit of a snag. Although I easily found version 1.36, I could not for the life of me find the database version you mentioned. If you've got a link to that, let me know and I'll update accordingly. The nearest I found was version 2110. I even poked around a bit on MWB forums to see if I missed it somehow.

In any case, I got everything installed ok - even without the updates it was attempting to look for. First, I ran a scan with MBA-M. Here's the log for that:

I was sure I told the program to remove everything it found (even though the last part of that log suggests no action taken.  I'll run another scan to verify.

--------------------------------------------------------------------

Once again, I asked the program to remove all items found.  But since this was my first time using that program, I wasn't yet certain it complied to my request.

Then, after a reboot, I noted that I was able to change my desktop now.  Progress!!  Still can't get on the internet yet, and it still won't recognize any USB-based drives.

Finally, I ran HJT and saved the following log:

So, in my mind, it appears we've made progress (of which I'm grateful). So, tell me what do my logs say, in regards to taking care of my USB issues. And where do I go from here, in regards to internet access?

Once again, thanks and I'll wait for your reply.

Yes, progress is being made BUT as you said your MBA-M log shows NO ACTION TAKEN on all objects found.
You will need to run it again to be certain.
The database version you had on there was pretty close. Since you are using the Offline Update option that one is somewhat behind the online updates. Once you are able to actually get this computer online you will be able to update via the program itself accessing the update files and then you would be up to date.
Go HERE and get another offline update, take it to the computer and update your MBA-M program and then run a FULL Scan again. This time once the scan is complete be sure there are check marks in all items found and then click the Remove Selected button.
Then REBOOT the COMPUTER...this is an absolute MUST. Some items cannot be completely removed unless the computer is rebooted because they will be removed during the early boot process before these infected files can be turned on.
There ARE still signs of infection showing in the HJT log and there is another step we can try but let's go on with this first to see what can be removed using MBA-M. I also would recommend you UNINSTALL AdAware, this newer version isn't what the old one was and it too adds some unneeded options which can interfere with fixes.
I also note you day you Deleted the HJT and AVG...hope you mean Uninstalled. Just deleting doesn't remove the program just the entries in various places and that makes it really difficult to actually uninstall.
Update and run MBA-M again, run your Avira again to see what it shows, won't need the full log from Avira, just infections found and locations if there are any. Do need the full MBA-M log and then of course reboot and run a new HJT scan and save the log.
Then we'll decide the next course of action.
Judy

Thanks again, Judy, for assisting me - and for the pointers. And I'm sorry for the misunderstanding about the delete vs. uninstall thing. Usually, I'm sooo eloquent.

To clarify things I actually uninstalled both HJT and AVG. I actually use a program called Revo Uninstaller for that task - which has proven VERY effective in removing just about anything I throw at it. But since some of the terminology in the program mentions 'delete', I think that's why I said it. Sorry.

In any case, here's my update on what I've done:

First, before I got a chance to read your reply, I went ahead on my own and poked around in MBA-M and found 66 files that were quarantined in the program. So, I guess I really DIDN'T remove those pesky things after all, huh? So I went ahead and removed them via the remove selected button.

That's when I finally got to your reply and said, 'dang, I probably should've waited'. In any case, it gave me a chance to download that update you linked to. So, currently, MBA-M is up to definition version 2162! :cool:

After that, I ran another scan on MBA-M, which came up with an additional 6 items. I removed those items and saved the following log:

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

After that, I went ahead and deleted AdAware (which, like you said, really didn't stack up to the previous versions) using my Revo Uninstaller program.

Then, I rebooted the computer, ran Avira (twice, by accident), found and removed/deleted 18 files, and saved the following log:

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

Now, while poring over the HJT log, I noticed this:

O10 - Broken Internet access because of LSP provider 'c:\windows\temp\ntdll64.dll' missing

And I'm sorry if I'm kinda 'jumping the gun', but would this be why I can't get on the internet? And if so, how do we go about looking into that?

Oh, and also, it's worth noting that I still am not able to get the laptop to recognize ANY USB drive. Now, keep in mind that I can plug in a wired mouse into any of the ports, and it works fine. However, in my analysis, I noted that when I do plug in any of my USB drives, they never seem to get a drive letter assigned to them. However, I can hear the 'tone' which lets me know that they were connected. And I can use the Safely Remove Hardware icon on the taskbar to 'un-mount' it.

Anyway, thanks for looking into this.

O10 - Broken Internet access because of LSP provider 'c:\windows\temp\ntdll64.dll' missing

You are not jumping the gun at all, very observant. I saw that one myself in your last log. It likely IS the reason you cannot get online. That entry indicates the rogue Anti-Spyware Program Antispyware2008 was on the system for sure and possibly some of it still remains.
Try running LSPFix, using the directions given on the link to repair.

There are still infected files showing in the log. But first I would like you to Uninstall the following programs:
Pure Networks-several of the infected files removed were from this program. Best to Uninstall ALL of it.
Also remove Webroot Window Washer. As you say, you have installed ATF-Cleaner, the Webroot program isn't needed and certainly shouldn't be running all the time. Same goes for PerfectDisk10. While neither of these programs are bad, there is no reason for them to run constantly.
RoboForms also runs all the time and can easily be run manually when needed.
Empty the Quarantine of Avira. Run the LSPFix program and do all of the above.
Then run HJT again and place check marks next to the following entries if they remain:
O10 - Broken Internet access because of LSP provider 'c:\windows\temp\ntdll64.dll' missing
O17 - HKLM\System\CCS\Services\Tcpip\Parameters: NameServer =
O20 - Winlogon Notify: vtuvtus - vtuvtus.dll (file missing)
O21 - SSODL: bdmanager - {E25FB3D6-AFAD-4875-8ACB-D893E1570EBB} - (no file)
O21 - SSODL: admgcx - {8F2142E2-B754-46AF-9A53-FD96BF8D8D78} - (no file)
Once you have placed the check marks then click the Fix Checked button.
Exit HJT.
Reboot the computer
Update both Avira and MBA-M and run Full Scans with both. Fix anything found and save the logs.
Reboot the computer and run a new HJT scan and save the log.
There will be at least one more fix but will need to see the logs first.

Hey Judy,

So, after reading your thread, a couple of 'interesting' things happened to my laptop. So, here's what I did:

Went to empty my Avira quarantine, but there was nothing there. I'm ASSuming that I deleted that stuff the last time I ran Avira. Which - IMHO - is a good thing, I'm thinking.

Anyway, I went ahead and downloaded the LSPFix to my CD-RW (neighbor let me have the disk to keep out of 'pity' - LOL ), loaded it up to my laptop and ran it per it's instructions. Lo and behold, I had internet!! WhooHoo!!! However, it wasn't 'internet' in the true sense of the word. To summarize, once the program finished running and I rebooted the computer, my Windows Update kicked in. So, per the instructions again, I checked to see if I could get to Google's website. Now, while none of my desktop links nor my favorites links would take me there, I could type in the address manually to get there. And in using any of my desktop links to websites or my Favorites links, the pages would be in a 'loading...' status for what seemed like forever. So, I'll follow some of the other instructions in the 'readme' for that program in a bit to see if I can make any headway.

Next thing on my agenda was to uninstall/delete Windows Washer. Now, while I wasn't necessarily married to that program, I've had some version or another of that for a few years now, and have run it every month for quite some time. So it was sad to see it go, but if it helps me to get full functionality of my computer again, I'll live with it.

Then I went and uninstalled/deleted Pure Networks. However, since it was the parent name of Network Magic, I immediately lost communication with my router AND my home network. Now, since I haven't had communicaion with my home network for a few weeks now (a whole different subject involving rebuilding my desktop that I won't bore you with), communication with the router WAS a big issue for me. So, in that regard, I had to re-install an old version of Network Magic from the install disk that came with my router. Not as functional as the newer version they have out, but it at least got me communicating with the router - and the internet - again. However, if you think that it will invariably cause issues with what we're doing, I guess I can go ahead and manually configure my wireless home network (a true PITA, but not nothing I'm unfamiliar with).

I also uninstalled/deleted Perfect Disk 10 (it was something I was trying at some point in order to fix this issue, so I definately wasn't attached to that one).

And I reconfigured RoboForms so that I will now have to manually run it, if needed.

Then, I ran HJT as directed. Now, while I didn't see the "O10" entry we talked about, I did see the other entries, checked them off, and clicked Fix Checked.

I then rebooted the computer, updated both Avira (now on 9.0.0.394) and MBA-M (definitions are now at 2181), ran full scans of both programs, fixed all the entries found, and saved the logs. Here's the one for Avira first:

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

Now, here's the 'interesting' part I talked about at the beginning of this post. As soon as I finished running HJT, but before saving the log to the disk, the following message popped up on my screen:

Your computer remains infected by threats! They can cause data loss and file damages and need to be cured as soon as possible. Return to Persona Antivirus and download it secure to your PC.

Now, since I currently am in training as an Apple tech support rep (guess I should've mentioned this at the beginning, huh?? ), one of the first things we talked about in class was about 'scare-ware' tactics - which I'm ASSuming this is. So, taking that into consideration, I turned off my network card on my laptop and shut the computer down. I was gonna run Avira at this point, but I figured I'd check in with you, with this new batch of info, to see what the next course of action.

Oh, and I probably should also mention that I still have no access to any USB devices that I plug in - except my wired mouse. But I can update my programs, which means that I at least have SOME internet access.

You ARE making progress, that is for sure. Let me explain WHY I had you remove Pure Networks, because some of the infected files were Pure Networks files.
Note these from previous log:
C:\Program Files\Setup Wizard\pure-network-magic.exe
I was hesitant earlier to note something, but I will now,
It seems that MOST of the infected files were/are located in this folder:
C:\Program Files\Setup Wizard\
I knew the pure network magic had to do with your ability to go through your router and if the "new"/old files work then there obviously was infection in the "new" ones you removed. Did you download these directly from THEIR website or someplace else?

Now this pop-up warning you received:

Your computer remains infected by threats! They can cause data loss and file damages and need to be cured as soon as possible. Return to Persona Antivirus and download it secure to your PC.

is an indication there is STILL infection on there, obviously by an rogue anti-spy/anti-virus. You did ABSOLUTELY the right thing by going off line immediately and shutting down.


Your MBA-M database IS the most current available so I am going to recommend once more that you do another scan with it....BUT stay OFFLINE, in fact disconnect the internet line completely to the computer and go to the Task Scheduler.

This entry in the HJT log concerns me also:
O22 - SharedTaskScheduler: gsf87hfunf98398jd - {C6C7B2A1-00F3-42BD-F434-00AABA2C8953} - C:\WINDOWS\system32\had73sfdfd.dll
As I am sure you will agree...this is a very strange listing. Check in Scheduled Tasks, if you see this, REMOVE it. Then follow these next instructions.
Staying OFFLINE, run another MBA-M Full System Scan and REMOVE everything it finds.

Reboot, but this time into SAFE MODE.
Run a Full Scan with your Avira and again remove everything found.

Shut down the computer, reconnect the internet and then reboot back to normal mode and go to the ESET Online Scanner
# You will need to use Internet Explorer to to complete this scan.
# You will need to temporarily Disable your current Anti-virus program.

# Be sure the option to Remove found threats is checked and the option to Scan unwanted applications is Checked.
# When you have completed that scan, a scanlog ought to have been created and located at C:\Program Files\EsetOnlineScanner\log.txt. Please post that log for us along with the MBA-M log, unless it showed nothing and the Avira log, unless it showed nothing.
I may want you to run another program shortly but I want to see what these additional scans will show. You are doing great and you ARE making progress!

Hey,

Just thought I'd chime in while I'm going forward with your advice. In addition to the entry you mentioned in the HJT log, one of the entries I took note of was the following:

O23 - Service: avast!Antivirus - Unknown owner - C:\WINDOWS\System32\avast!Antivirus.exe

Now, to my knowledge, I've never downloaded or used Avast. And the whole 'unknown owner' thing caused me to raise an eyebrow. Is this something that I should also be concerned with, or should I just 'let it ride', so to speak??

You have a VERY KEEN EYE. That is a BRAND NEW entry in the log, it also shows as a running process. This obviously is NOT AVAST

Go to http://virusscan.jotti.org/en
and upload this file:
C:\WINDOWS\System32\avast!Antivirus.exe
It will be scanned by multiple scanners and give you a reading on what this file is exactly.
Post back here with the full information.

Hey again,

I would've posted sooner, but one of my kids 'moved' the CD-RW that had my logs on it - so I didn't have anything to show. In any case, I finally tracked it down. So, here's a rundown - albiet 3 days late - of where I'm at thus far:

Thanks for explaining to me the reasoning behind you wanting me to delete my Pure Networks. Now, something I noted - but failed to mention because I wasn't sure it was relevant until now - what that in my research, I found that the "C:\Program Files\Setup Wizard\pure-network-magic.exe" file was not in the "Network Magic" folder. In fact, one of the things I found peculiar was that Network Magic had it's own setup wizard - which I found to be a different color from the suspect file (blue - which was consistant with all the other files in that folder - as opposed to orange). As I said, I wasn't sure it was important at the time, so I didn't mention it. Which begged the question as to WHERE did I get it? I thought I got it from the actual company's website, but at this point, I'm not sure.

So, I started off working on my lspfix issue I mentioned, as I was still having the same internet access issues. First thing I did was to reboot the computer. Then, as I opened up an explorer window, I noted that everything was moving a LOT slower than normal. Task Manager showed me that CPU usage was at a consistant 50% to 60% - far above my 'normal' 3% to 5%. At this point, I also notices something new on my tool bar - something called "live info search", or some such. I was able to find - and remove - it using my Revo Uninstaller, which brought my CPU usage back to normal.

Then, I turned off my wireless card on my laptop, ran a quick MBA-M, and reboote the computer (Windows installed 2 updates on reboot, BTW). Nothing showed up, unbelieveably. Then, I tried to track down the following entries in my last HJT log that we mentioned:

O22 - SharedTaskScheduler: gsf87hfunf98398jd - {C6C7B2A1-00F3-42BD-F434-00AABA2C8953} - C:\WINDOWS\system32\had73sfdfd.dll

and

O23 - Service: avast!Antivirus - Unknown owner - C:\WINDOWS\System32\avast!Antivirus.exe

Unfortunately, I couldn't find a trace of either of them - either by looking directly in the locations they showed, checking 'Scheduled Tasks', or by using the "search" function. So, going forward, I went ahead and ran a full scan with MBA-M. I believe I found and removed 22 files. Here's the log from that:

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

So, after rebooting the computer to normal, and with the wireless card turned back on, Avira started up on it's own where it did a 'hidden object search'. Not exactly sure what that entailed, but it found - and deleted - at least 1 error. I say "at least 1", because (since you probably know more about this program than I do, I'm sure you'll understand the following) I heard Avira "chime" at least 6-7 times.

One interesting thing I did notice, though, was that on reboot, my screen resolution had changed from it's normal 1920X1200 down to 1024x768. No biggie, as I was able to change it back to normal with no issues.

Next, I went to the ESET Online Scanner and ran that using the parameters you said. Here's it's scan log:

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

So, here's where I am - for the most part. I'll check back with you and see what info you've got for me. Thanks again.

What you have done is fine, though not what I requested that you do in my last post to you, which was upload that file to http://virusscan.jotti.org/en
I realize you say you searched for this file and couldn't find it but you did other things prior to the search. So I don't know if it is still there now but now using a different name.

By NOT doing that when I requested it does NOT mean that the file is gone, though your scans have removed a lot of infection. If you had done that immediately BEFORE the other steps then we would have known if whatever infection that was/is that had NAMED ITSELF avast was finally removed by all your scans. But we don't know that.
The main rule here is follow instructions as given, not other steps, the ones given. You are obviously very computer savy which is a great benefit when working on these problems, but you have to keep us up to date. The other rule is ANY TIME scans are done after notations of infections in an HJT log then AFTER those scans are done and infections are removed then Immediately after rebooting the computer again then a NEW HJT scan must be run and posted along with all those scan logs.
Hopefully the computer has been cleaned, but there is no way to know unless I see another HJT log.
You state you worked on the Internet Connection problems...but you don't say if they were solved.
I really can't help anymore unless I get full info and at this point I don't have it.
Judy

Hi again,

First, I want to apologize. In my zeal to get this bit of nastiness taken care of, I feel as though I've put myself back to 'square one' by doing some extra steps - which wasn't my intended purpose. For this, I'm sorry.

Since I'm on my way out the door to work right now, I won't be able to post what I did in regards to the internet connection issue, except to say that the same problem I've had before in regards to only being able to get to some websites (and only after having to type in the addresses manually) still exist. I'll delve into that with you once I get back home.

In the meanwhile, I went ahead and did an HJT scan to start things back off again. Here's the log:

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

Once again, I'm sorry for jumping ahead of things. And rest assured, that won't happen again. I'll be looking forward to your assessment of my log, and I'll post this evening more about the internet connectivity thing. Thanks in advance.

Well I hate to break it to you but I really feel your system is much more infected NOW than it was before. There are MULTIPLE trojans showing, new ones, which were not in the log before. One is especially worrisome, indicated by this NEW entry in the HJT log which was not there before:
F2 - REG:system.ini: UserInit=C:\WINDOWS\system32\userinit.exe,C:\WINDOWS\system32\twex.exe,
This one is a strong indication of Infostealer.Banker.C Trojan, which is exactly as it sounds...an information stealer, including passwords, banking information, etc. There are now also multiple other ones which weren't there before you began your own steps.
Troj/Agent-IUK, W32/Koobfa-Gen malware, Trojan-Downloader.Win32.Agent (this one is part of a family of malware that consist of the executable dropper and its dropped files. It attempts to connect to certain websites and possibly download other malware. It also disables System Restore.)
There are other new ones also. The majority were NOT present in the other logs.
I realize the way you are having to connect to websites is an irritant but that can be fixed ONCE the multiple infections are removed. I asked you to upload that file immediately to the scan site, which you didn't do but instead followed other steps on your own without telling me. This gave the infections time to change their names, so no wonder you couldn't find that one.
Now THIS is the step I wanted you to run AFTER you had done that upload of the file, but since we can no longer do that I want you to continue with this one...ONLY THIS ONE, NOTHING ELSE except a new HJT scan AFTER this tool is run. Follow these instructions TO THE LETTER...NOTHING MORE until directed to do so.

download ComboFix Click on the Save button, and when it asks you where to save it, make sure you save it directly to your Windows Desktop. DO NOT RUN IT YET.
At this point you should do the following:

* Close all open Windows including this one.
* Close or disable all running Antivirus, Antispyware, and Firewall programs as they may interfere with the proper running of ComboFix.

Once these two steps have been completed, double-click on the ComboFix icon found on your desktop. Please note, that once you start ComboFix you should not click anywhere on the ComboFix window as it can cause the program to stall. In fact, when ComboFix is running, do not touch your computer at all. The scan could take a while, so please be patient.
You may receive a security warning as Combofix prepares to run, Windows is issuing this prompt because ComboFix does not have a digital signature. This is perfectly normal and safe and you can click on the Run button to continue.
ComboFix is now preparing to run and when it has finished you will see a screen showing the authorized locations to download Combofix. when you see this screen, press the OK button and you will now see the Disclaimer screen, press the Yes button to continue.
ComboFix will now disconnect your computer from the Internet, so do not be surprised or concerned if you receive any warnings stating that you are no longer on the Internet. When ComboFix has finished it will automatically restore your Internet connection.

ComboFix will now start scanning your computer for known infections. This procedure can take some time, so please be patient.
While the program is scanning your computer, it will change your clock format, so do not be concerned when you see this happen. When ComboFix is finished it will restore your clock settings to their previous settings. You will also see the text in the ComboFix window being updated as it goes through the various stages of its scan.
When ComboFix has finished running, you will see a screen stating that it is preparing the log report. This can take a while, so please be patient. If you see your Windows desktop disappear, do not worry. This is normal and ComboFix will restore your desktop before it is finished. Eventually you will see a new screen that states the program is almost finished and telling you the programs log file, or report, will be located at C:\ComboFix.txt.
When ComboFix has finished, it will automatically close the program and change your clock back to its original format. It will then display the log file.
Please Copy/Paste this log back here along with a new HJT scan.

Hey again,

So, after reading your post, here's what I went to do:

First thing I did was to go ahead with the download of ComboFix. Based on how you wrote in your post, I can only ASSume that you wanted me to d/l it from the laptop. Now, since I haven't touched the laptop in the past couple of days, my wife - being the kindly soul she is - went ahead and closed the screen of the laptop up (to conserve energy, she said), promptly shutting it down.

Now, at this point, I'm not sure if it's as a result of the laptop being shut down, or the malware, or both. But, as of now, I could not get back on the internet in ANY capacity.

That being the case, I resorted to downloading the program to my CD-RW from my desktop computer. I don't know if this was what you intended by having to get the file, but it was the only way at this point.

So, I got the file, took it over to the laptop, and saved it to my laptop's desktop screen.

After that, I went ahead and disable my firewall and disabled Avira. No problems there.

Then, I went ahead and double-clicked the ComboFix icon, which started the program up. No hitches, except to report that the program wanted to connect to the Internet in order to download some update or another. However, since I have no internet access on the laptop, it didn't complete that part.

Except for that 'hiccup', the program went and ran. Or at least I thought it did, because most of the stuff you mentioned as far as the screens I would see and how the program would run, was there. However, I didn't notice any 'scan' taking place. And if it ran, then it looked like this process took probably anywhere from 5-7 min. This was followed by a screen that had me to write down what appeared to be a set of file locations. The body of the message said something to the effect that I'd need these locations later.

Afterwards, I clicked "OK", and the computer rebooted on it's own. Now, once the computer came back up, all that came up, was a 'My Documents' box displaying my folders and other downloads (sorta like what you would see once you open up Control Panel from the 'Start' button), as well as an empty desktop with nothing on it. And when I say 'nothing', I mean 'NOTHING' - no folders, no apps, and no taskbar.

Now, as of this writing, the program was left to run, per your request. But it really doesn't appear to be doing anything - no HDD movement, no noise. So, I'm not too sure what you want me to do, so I'll leave things as-is, and await what you have to say. Peace...

Is the computer booted to Normal Mode? Frankly I have never seen anything like this happen before. But I also honestly don't know what all that has occurred with all the other programs you ran either. IF there is a way you can get to "C" drive this would be where the combofix log would be C:\ComboFix.txt
I have to say I am not certain now what should be done. The lack of internet service you have now has to be related to either the computer being turned off, and the fixes you attempted to correct the problems. It sounds to me like there is a rootkit at work on the machine, otherwise these other entries wouldn't have appeared in that latest HJT log. I always hate to ask this...do you have the install disks for the OS? It truly may be the easiest thing to do is reformat and reload.
