My computer was (is) infected by the Vondo/virtumonde virus. I ran the removal tool by atribune which cleaned up the majority of it but there was a little bit the removal tool didn't get. Could someone tell me how to get rid of the last of this? (Checking and fixing the boxes next to the O2 and O20 lines didn't work.) Here is my latest HJT log.

Can you please do the following.

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

You will have to disable Spybot's Teatimer before we begin, as it will interfere with the fix. To do this can you start Spybot and go to the Mode button and select Advanced. Go to Tools > Resident and uncheck the box next to Tea-Timer. Make sure that the icon in the system tray is no longer there. If it is, just right click on it and select "Exit".
Download ResetTeaTimer.bat.
Double click ResetTeaTimer.bat to remove all entries set by TeaTimer.
Do not forget to re-enable teatimer when we are done :).
If teatimer gives you a warning afterwards that some changes were made, allow this instead of blocking it.

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

Can you also disable Windows Defender too. Please leave it disabled until your PC has been given the all clear.

  • Open Windows Defender
  • Click Tools
  • Click General Settings
  • Scroll down to Real Time Protection Options
  • Uncheck Turn on Real Time Protection (recommended)
  • After you uncheck this, click on the Save button
  • Close Windows Defender

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

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


O2 - BHO: (no name) - {7DA39570-5FD2-4f18-94B4-20730CB3F727} - (no file)

O6 - HKCU\Software\Policies\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Control Panel present
...(Unless you've set these with an anti-spyware program like SpyBot's Immunize feature, have HiJackThis fix this.)

O11 - Options group: [INTERNATIONAL] International*

O16 - DPF: {D4323BF2-006A-4440-A2F5-27E3E7AB25F8} -


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

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

To help protect your system from hostile ActiveX content, or special 'downloadable' files:

Download, install and keep updated, SpywareBlaster. If you've installed it for the first time:

1) Check for any available updates; if present, they'll be automatically downloaded and installed.
2) Next, "Enable all protection".
3) Exit the program.

-

Note: Remember to regularly check for updates.

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

After rebooting, rescan with hijackthis and post back a new log. Please let me know how your pc is now.

I'm very sorry I haven't closed out this thread yet,... I am getting assistance from another IT web site. Thank you very much for your help anyway.

Cuts ya deep. Eh, crunchie

That's the way the cookie crumbles I suppose :)
