My pc was just attacked this week and i have been fighting with the infection for some time. Just today, it got to where i was unable to open up 'my computer' or any other windows based files of the like. However, from reading an old forum on this website i have been subdue that issue for now. I D/L'd and ran Hijack this and deleted one file and it resolved this, b/c i only recognized one file that i saw on the list to be deleted from the other forum. Aside from that, i have no idea what i'm looking at in HJT. If some one could check my log and tell me if there is anything that can/ should be done, it would be greatly appreciated.... that is, if someone could tell me how to attach the log first:o

Hi and welcome to Daniweb :).
Download HijackThis self-extracting zip version from here. Once downloaded, double click on the file & it will install into it's own, permanent folder.
Start HJT & press the "Do a system scan and save a log file" button. When the scan is finished a window will pop up giving you the option of where to save it. Save it to desktop where it is easy to access. Open the log file and copy the entire contents of the file (Ctrl+A then Ctrl+C) & paste (Ctrl+V) it into the body of your post. DO NOT FIX ANYTHING YET. Most of what is there is necessary for the running of your system.

  4. The program will now open to the main screen.
  5. You will need to update ewido to the latest definition files.
    • On the left hand side of the main screen click update.
    • Then click on Start Update.
  6. The update will start and a progress bar will show the updates being installed.
    (the status bar at the bottom will display ("Update successful")

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

Next, please reboot your computer in Safe Mode by doing the following :

  • Restart your computer
  • After hearing your computer beep once during startup, but before the Windows icon appears, tap the F8 key continually;
  • Instead of Windows loading as normal, a menu with options should appear;
  • Select the first option, to run Windows in Safe Mode, then press "Enter".
  • Choose your usual account.

The report can also be found at the root of the system drive, usually at C:\rapport.txt

Note : running option #2 on a non infected computer will remove your Desktop background.

5) Post the content of rapport.txt, the Ewido report and a new HijackThis! log in your next reply.

i apologize again about the late reply

No worries. I stuffed up the instructions there. Please do the following;

You may want to print out or make a copy of these instructions before starting, because you will not be able to connect to the internet during most of this fix.

Download smitRem.exe and save the file to your desktop.
Double click on the file to extract it to it's own folder on the desktop.

Next, please reboot your computer in Safe Mode by doing the following:

  1. Restart your computer
  2. After hearing your computer beep once during startup, but before the Windows icon appears, press F8.
  3. Instead of Windows loading as normal, a menu should appear
  4. Select the first option, to run Windows in Safe Mode.

Open the smitRem folder, then double click the RunThis.bat file to start the tool. Follow the prompts on screen. Your desktop and icons will disappear and then reappear again --- this is normal.
Wait for the tool to complete and Disk Cleanup to finish --- this may take a while; please be patient.

Restart your computer in normal mode.
Please post a new HijackThis log as well as the log from the smitRem tool, which will be located at C:\smitfiles.txt.
Let us know if any problems persist.

well, it looks like that got everything, but i wouldnt know so...

Can you please do the following.

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

Run HiJackThis then:

1. Click "Open the Misc Tools Section"
2. Click "Open Process manager"

-

Next, while holding down the CTRL key, locate (if present) and click on (highlight) each of the following:

C:\WINDOWS\system32\da350eb2.exe

Now double-check and make sure that only those item(s) above are highlighted, then click "Kill process". Now, click "Refresh", check again, and repeat this step if any remain.

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

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


O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [da350eb2.exe] C:\WINDOWS\system32\da350eb2.exe
O4 - HKCU\..\Run: [da350eb2.exe] C:\Documents and Settings\Matt\Local Settings\Application Data\da350eb2.exe


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

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


When your done, rescan your system and make sure the following isn't present:

N3 - Netscape ... 5CSBWeb_01.src (or) 5CSBWeb_02.src

If it is, then fix that entry again; sometimes it'll take more than one pass. The actual entry is ok, and won't be deleted, it's the java wrapper marked in red that needs to be removed.

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

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\da350eb2.exe
C:\Documents and Settings\Matt\Local Settings\Application Data\da350eb2.exe

-

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 use arrow up to highlight

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

-

Reboot.

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

After rebooting, rename hijackthis to analysethis.exe and post back a new log. Please let me know how your pc is now.

i think everything is runnig back to normal, but again, i'll let you be the judge. i may have an AIM virus now b/c my brother opened an .exe file from someone and it made my AIM go crazy like those viruses do. anyway, heres that last log. BTW thanks so much for all your help so far.
