Hi and welcome to daniweb, Sorry you are having these problems, let's see if we can get things cleaned up.
First though you will need to Turn Off the TeaTimer portion of SpyBot as it can interfere with any fixes attempted. To do this do the following:

* 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

Follow the steps given here beginning with the Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware (MBA-M) scan and cleaning. First though you will need to Turn Off the TeaTimer portion of SpyBot as it can interfere with any fixes attempted. To do this do the following:

Post back here with the MBA-M log when that one is complete.

Hi,

I apologise in advance for not mentioning this sooner however, i have done a number of scans using different software products to try and correct the situation which probably haven't help me at all in hindsight. Programs i have used are Avira, AVG, Spyware Doctor and a scan or two with MDAM.

however, i have turned off the Tea timer function in Spybot S & D and ran another scan with MDAM as requested with the log shown below. also i have noticed that java keeps trying to run certain files which i have blocked to my recollection i beleive they are FWgp.exe/Onyp.exe (so far) if this proves helpful at all.. also when this happens i get a dialog box from adobe saying "A 3D parsing error has occured" or something to this effect. not sure if this means anything either..

Again apologies for the lack of explanation and thanks in advance for any other help/advice given, below is the latest MBAM log.

I apologise in advance for not mentioning this sooner...Avira, AVG,

Well first of all, yes you should have mentioned this originally. Secondly those are two different anti-virus programs and your log shows you are running a 3rd one, Comodo Internet Security, which also contains an anti-virus program. The absolute rule is ONE anti-virus program should be installed and running on a computer at a time. Run more than one and none of them will work as they should.
Were all of these the only antivirus program installed at the time of the scan?
The MBA-M log shows that the item found was not removed

Files Infected:
C:\Program Files\SUPERAntiSpyware\keygen.exe (Dont.Steal.Our.Software.A) -> No action taken.

You need to run it again and this time have it remove the items found and reboot the computer.
Then run a new HJT scan and post back with both logs.

I also just noticed you are running a Registry Cleaner. There is no earthly reason to use a registry cleaning program. They are more trouble than they are worth. Uninstall that program also.
Judy

I have now uninstalled the superantispyware and registry clean expert programs as previously suggested.
In answer to the programs I have used prior to looking for help on the forum I took the superantispyware off because of the potential conflictions, however I did totally forget the comodo has an antivirus as part of it. I also still have the current hijackthis scan up and ready incase there is anything you find that can be taken off. Below is the hijackthis and MBAM logs.

First of all, no need to keep the HJT program open in case fixes are needed. If there are fixes required another scan would be used to do it. So there is no reason to keep it open once the scan is complete.
I would like you to do another online scan.
Please Run the ESET Online Scanner and attach the ScanLog with your post for assistance.

* 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 .

I turned off the comodo firewall while the ESET online scanner did its thing, below is the log for the scan.

Your scans indicate you are involved in P2P file sharing:

Startup: LimeWire On Startup.lnk = C:\Program Files\LimeWire\LimeWire.exe

and also use keygens/crack tools.

Files Infected:
C:\Program Files\SUPERAntiSpyware\keygen.exe (Dont.Steal.Our.Software.A)

http://threatinfo.trendmicro.com/vinfo/grayware/ve_graywaredetails.asp?gname=CRCK_KEYGEN.BB

The practice of using cracking tools, keygens, warez or any pirated software is not only considered illegal activity but it is a serious security risk.

Now you know why you are infected and will likely remain infected unless this practice ceases. This are also violations of daniweb policies clearly stated HERE

Please Uninstall or Disable any P2P (peer-to-peer) programs on the infected computer before posting in this forum. Rather than write a long piece on the dangers of P2P, I’m just going to say this:

P2P software circumvents common-sense security measures and opens a user’s computer to a world of hurt.
Our regular volunteers' time is valuable and most are not willing to waste it on a machine that is almost certain to be reinfected in short order.
So, please remove or disable all P2P software for the duration of the cleaning process. Failure to do so may result in your thread being ignored.

And HERE

Keep It Legal
In addition, do not post anything warez related or related to other illegal acts. This includes tech support troubleshooting pirated software or P2P programs (i.e. Gnutella, Kazaa) used to obtain pirated software. Exceptions are helping to remove spyware or browser hijacks (that may or may not be related to illegal material) from a computer.

If you wish to continue with this cleanup then ALL of these have to be 100% removed from your computer, no exceptions for anything.

I have removed Limewire from my computer and deleted the superantispyware folder from the program files area of the HD. i have run a search on the C:\ drive and could not find the keygen.exe so im assuming its no longer on the HD.

now that these have been dealt with what should be my next thing to do???

Many thanks

[jholland1964]

I would like you to do the following:
Download DDS by sUBs and save it to your Desktop.
Be sure follow the instructions below carefully!

• If your AV has a script blocker, please disable it
• DoubleClick on dds.scr to run the tool

* A command box will open, displaying added information for your reading pleasure while DDS completes its scan.
* Upon completion, a Dialog Box should open instructing you to save and post the TWO resulting logs (DDS.txt & Attach.txt).

• Copy&Paste the DDS.txt into your post for assistance.
• Please post Attach.txt as an attachment to your post - there is no need to Zip it. If you don’t know how to post an attachment, please Copy&Paste it along with the DDS.txt scanlog.

here are the two logs created from the dds program thing.

You did not attach the second log. The first log is extremely odd since there are no SERVICES / DRIVERS listed, there are no files listed in Created Last 30 Days, and nothing listed for the Find3M which means 3 months.
Even if there were absolutely no files created within the last 30 days or 3 months, which would only happen if the computer had literally been turned off for the last 3 months.This is totally impossible since you have been posting here for over 24 hours and state you have done multiple scans with various programs so those programs at least should be showing, you cannot run a computer without Drivers and Services there are none of either showing, yet the HiJackThis shows 9 services running.
There is also a Untrusted, Phishing website showing in your Hosts file.
This can only lead me to believe the file has been edited.
I cannot assist unless full, unedited logs are posted. We ask for these logs for very specific reasons and we must see every line.
Run the tool again, post both of the full logs produced or sign off.

Hi there,

I did not attach the second because I dont know how to, I am very new to using forums of any kind for anything. I would also like to say that hand on heart I have absolutely not edited the host file because a) i dont know how to and b) i dont know where this information is.

In reply to use of other types of anti-virus/spyware programs that i have used prior to signing up to this forum before I installed a new program i took the existing program off to minimise the risk of the programs conflicting with eachother rendering it pointless in doing so.

In reply to the 'editing' of the logs from the last scan i performed with DDS are totally untrue. the logs came out as is and because i didnt know how to attach files to my replies i simply copied and pasted instead. I have re-downloaded the tool however and shall run it then copy the DDS log and attempt to attach the 'Attach' log if i can in my next post.

Apologies,
Mikeyprs

[jholland1964]

Ok Mike I believe you. Possibly the infections have damaged the ability of this tool to run properly, I don't know, just have never seen all of those items come up totally blank.
Try running it in Safe Mode if you can and see if that makes a difference.

Firstly, can you quickly remind me how to start up in safe mode as my brains gone totally blank for a moment n struggling to remember =/.

also before i do that here are a few things I think you most definately need to know.

Firstly, DDS came up with this message when i ran the tool.

'EVP.exe' is not a recognised as an internal or external command..

Unfortunately i wasnt quick enough to write it all down so apologies for that.

Secondly, a windows script host dialog box came up on screen when the scan was finished.

"Can not find script file "C:\Documentsand settings\Mikeyprs\Localsettings\Temp\MSGB.pif'

Here is the DDS log Copied & pasted exactly as is.....

Tell you what, let's forget the DDS it obviously isn't going to run correctly. Please do the following:
Please download ComboFix by sUBs from HERE or HERE
· You must download it to and run it from your Desktop
· Physically disconnect from the internet.
· Now STOP all your monitoring programs (Antivirus/Antispyware, Guards and Shields) as they could easily interfere with ComboFix.
· Double click combofix.exe & follow the prompts.
· When finished, it will produce a log. Please save that log to post in your next reply along with a fresh HJT log
· Re-enable all the programs that were disabled during the running of ComboFix..

Note:
Do not mouse-click combofix's window while it is running. That may cause it to stall.

CF disconnects your machine from the internet. The connection is automatically restored before CF completes its run. If CF runs into difficulty and terminates prematurely, the connection can be manually restored by restarting your machine.

Run Combofix ONCE only!!

Hi

I've ran combofix once as told to do so. I have also ran another scan with HJT as requested once combofix was complete.

Combofix log is attached and Below is the HJT log.

Ok very good, now do the following, I need to see and Uninstall List generated by HiJackThis.

Would you still request a reboot even if there is nothing detected??

[jholland1964]

No not necessary. I am going through the Combo log and also the Uninstall list...uTorrent is a P2P program by the way.

That has now been Removed. Any others you would recommend be removed??

[jholland1964]

Still going through it all, will get back with you shortly

[jholland1964]

Where are you located?

England, Uk =]

[jholland1964]

Sorry this has taken so long but I wanted to check through all the logs, look at the programs installed, files removed, etc.
Way back in this thread I requested that, per our stated polices, that you remove Limewire, a P2P program and since I had not yet seen a list of the programs installed I also said,

If you wish to continue with this cleanup then ALL of these have to be 100% removed from your computer, no exceptions for anything.

You said that you removed Limewire and one of the files removed by MBA-M was a crack tool I did have a feeling there were likely other programs or files related to P2P on the computer and your next HJT log proved me right. Because then uTorrent showed up in the auto starts, even though I asked you to remove all P2P programs and programs which would do anything similar to this crack tool. But you did not. the uTorrent was on the system all the time, at least since March. You also have a program on there called DVD Decrypter. The program is no longer legally available. The reason being, while it is a DVD burning program it is also used for decrypting copy-protected movies.
As I explained earlier, P2P is very likely the reason for your infections and difficulties and I asked you to remove all of these programs, you did not and you cannot claim ignorance, you had to install these programs, they did not just drop onto the computer.

You should uninstall combofix. It basically is a "one time" fix. If a person is told to use it again some other time then a new copy would be needed.

* Click START then RUN
* Now type ComboFix /Uninstall in the runbox and click OK. The space between the combofix and the /uninstall, it must be there.
When shown the disclaimer, Select "2"

Other than that I cannot offer any more assistance since you have knowingly violated the stated policy of this forum concerning the use of pirated software or P2P programs used to obtain pirated software or copyright protected material.

Ok, Thank you for your help. I beleive my problem has now been cured anyway.
