    P. C Power Speed: fake? Malware? did homework; logs below
    « on: November 29, 2012, 12:23:49 PM »
    Well, here goes:  This is my wife's computer.  She does not use it much; has poor health; uses her iPhone mostly.  Older sons and granddaughter use this computer at times.  If wife sees >anything< unusual, she calls me in.  She does now complain of this desktop being slow.  Computer info is:
    MS XP svc. Pk 3
    Pentium 3.00Ghz
    1Gb RAM
    AVE 2011 - kept up to date
    IE 7
    Malwarebytes run yesterday when I began this.

    Two days ago she came in and asked me to look at a double window that had popped up.  It was, "P C Power Speed," saying it had found a zillion problems and did we want to click the box for PCPS to fix it or, "continue," to receiving problems.  (Ha - that last part is a red flag to me)

    I had to do a hard shutdown to get rid of the windows.  I went to my computer and did search for P C Power Speed and it appers it, "can," be a fake version of some poorly-rated software.  Some info to get rid of it, but admission of it's being stubborn.  I see on this computer it is listed proudly when I pull up, "all programs," and has a nice white, "PC," letters-in-black background icon on the desktop.  Reference to, "computer optimizer,"  I have NOT clicked on it's icon or brought up it's window on this computer. 

    I immediately came here, read, "do this first," etc., and ran CClearner, AdwCleaner,Malwarebytes, (again) and DDS.  Logs are pasted below, (sorry, they are long).   

    I did see under, "all programs," within the P C Power Speed line, an, "uninstall," option, but did not click on it. 

    Here are logs, tips appreciated:

    Hello and welcome to Computer Hope Forum. My name is Dave. I will be helping you out with your particular problem on your computer.

    1. I will be working on your Malware issues. This may or may not solve other issues you have with your machine.
    2. The fixes are specific to your problem and should only be used for this issue on this machine.
    3. If you don't know or understand something, please don't hesitate to ask.
    4. Please DO NOT run any other tools or scans while I am helping you.
    5. It is important that you reply to this thread. Do not start a new topic.
    6. Your security programs may give warnings for some of the tools I will ask you to use. Be assured, any links I give are safe.
    7. Absence of symptoms does not mean that everything is clear.

    If you can't access the internet with your infected computer you will have to download and transfer any programs to the computer you're using now and transfer them to the infected computer with a CD-RW or a USB storage device. I prefer a CD because a storage device can get infected. If you use a storage device hold the shift key down while inserting the USB storage device for about 10 secs. You will also have to transfer the logs you receive back to the good computer using the same method until we can get the computer back on-line.
    *************************************************************************
    Remove the Adware:
    • Please close all open programs and internet browsers.
    • Double click on adwcleaner.exe to run the tool.
    • Click on Delete.
    • Confirm each time with OK
    • Your computer will be rebooted automatically. A text file will open after the restart.
    • Please post the content of that logfile in your reply.
    • You can find the logfile at C:\AdwCleaner[Sn].txt as well - n is the order number.
    ************************************************
    Please run MBAM again and, this time, clean the infections.

    Download Security Check by screen317 from one of the following links and save it to your desktop.

    Link 1
    Link 2

    * Double-click Security Check.bat
    * Follow the on-screen instructions inside of the black box.
    * A Notepad document should open automatically called checkup.txt
    * Post the contents of that document in your next reply.

    Note: If a security program requests permission from dig.exe to access the Internet, allow it to do so.
    *********************************************
    Download Combofix from any of the links below, and save it to your DESKTOP

    Link 1
    Link 2
    Link 3

    To prevent your anti-virus application interfering with  ComboFix we need to disable it. See here for a tutorial regarding how to do so if you are unsure.
    • Close any open windows and double click ComboFix.exe to run it.

      You will see the following image:


    Click I Agree to start the program.

    ComboFix will then extract the necessary files and you will see this:



    As part of it's process, ComboFix will check to see if the Microsoft Windows Recovery Console is installed. With malware infections being as they are today, it's strongly recommended to  have this pre-installed on your machine before doing any malware  removal. This will not occur in Windows Vista and 7

    It will allow you to boot up into a special recovery/repair  mode that will allow us to more easily help you should your computer  have a problem after an attempted removal of malware.

    If you did not have it installed, you will see the prompt below. Choose YES.



    Follow the prompts to allow ComboFix to download and install the Microsoft Windows Recovery Console, and when prompted, agree to the End-User License Agreement to install the Microsoft Windows Recovery Console.

    **Please note: If the Microsoft Windows Recovery Console is already installed, ComboFix will continue it's malware removal procedures.

    Once the Microsoft Windows Recovery Console is installed using ComboFix, you should see the following message:



    Click on Yes, to continue scanning for malware.

    When finished, it will produce a report for you. Please post the contents of the log (C:\ComboFix.txt).

    Leave your computer alone while ComboFix is running. ComboFix will restart your computer if malware is found; allow it to do so.

    Note: Please Do NOT mouseclick combofix's window while its running because it may cause it to stall.
    Windows 8 and Windows 10 dual boot with two SSD's

      Thank you, Dave.
      What is the, "MBAM," you wish me to re-run?

      Meanwhile, I'll head back to re-run AdwCleaner and do the deletes, saving resulting file.

        Dave:
        First, I figured out what MBAM means...MalWarebytes.  Yes, I will re-run and clean the infections.
        Second, pasted below is the result after doing the deletions within AdwCleaner.

          Download Combofix from any of the links below, and save it to your DESKTOP

          Link 1
          Link 2
          Link 3

          To prevent your anti-virus application interfering with  ComboFix we need to disable it. See here for a tutorial regarding how to do so if you are unsure.
          • Close any open windows and double click ComboFix.exe to run it.

            You will see the following image:


          Click I Agree to start the program.

          ComboFix will then extract the necessary files and you will see this:



          As part of it's process, ComboFix will check to see if the Microsoft Windows Recovery Console is installed. With malware infections being as they are today, it's strongly recommended to  have this pre-installed on your machine before doing any malware  removal. This will not occur in Windows Vista and 7

          It will allow you to boot up into a special recovery/repair  mode that will allow us to more easily help you should your computer  have a problem after an attempted removal of malware.

          If you did not have it installed, you will see the prompt below. Choose YES.



          Follow the prompts to allow ComboFix to download and install the Microsoft Windows Recovery Console, and when prompted, agree to the End-User License Agreement to install the Microsoft Windows Recovery Console.

          **Please note: If the Microsoft Windows Recovery Console is already installed, ComboFix will continue it's malware removal procedures.

          Once the Microsoft Windows Recovery Console is installed using ComboFix, you should see the following message:



          Click on Yes, to continue scanning for malware.

          When finished, it will produce a report for you. Please post the contents of the log (C:\ComboFix.txt).

          Leave your computer alone while ComboFix is running. ComboFix will restart your computer if malware is found; allow it to do so.

          Note: Please Do NOT mouseclick combofix's window while its running because it may cause it to stall.
          Windows 8 and Windows 10 dual boot with two SSD's

            Hi Dave:

            Thank you again for your reply. 

            Hmmm.  I did the ComboFix as requested earlier today.  The last section in my previous note was the result........or did I do something wrong? 

            The Recovery Consol was NOT installed on wife's computer, so it did that without complaint just as you said it would. 

            If I have sent an incomplete ComboFix report, or need to do it again, please advise.

            PS:  on this surprise, "P C Power Speed," ....we've never downloaded such a thing.  Knowing that and the manner in which it presented itself, is why I became so suspicious.  I'll be interested later in learning what the devil this thing is....

            Dennis

              Sorry, Dave.  I thought that last part was the right one.  Novice here, but trying.  Let's try this one; I did have it saved here on her desktop:

                  Hi Dave:

                  I ran the ESET scanner which found NO infections.  I guess that is why there were no options at the end to make a log.  Good deal.

                  You asked how this computer was working....  Were I not still concerned with this P C Power Speed program, I'd say it is running really well.  Lots faster than when wife complained about it. 

                  I wonder if I should pull up the real or fake P C Power Speed, and click on the listed un-install????  I had not done that because at the outset, I was nervous about touching it at all.  What I read was that it was difficult to get rid of, and that and my suspicions that it was malware, brought me to you.  At the very least, it's one of those annoying programs that frequently pops up trying to get the user to do something with it.  I don't know how it got in here.

                  Next?

                  Thanks,
                  Dennis

                  Yes, please try to uninstall it and let me know what happens. If you have problems, I can help you remove it.

                    Thanks, Dave.  Will do.

                    Question: do you want me to use the program's listed, "uninstaller," or go into Control Panel and use, "add/remove," programs?

                      I went ahead and pulled up add/remove programs and deleted P. C. Power Speed, (which showed itself as version 1.0.0.27).  It seemed to work quickly and the undesired program no longer shows up as a desktop icon or in all programs. 

                      I wonder if it really did completely remove it???  Could something still be buried in the registry?  (I don't know much about working in the registry)

                      ??

                      Follow up point:  my wife has an iPad she likes.  Along with her iPhome and iPod, she has put them all on Apple's, "iCloud."  Which she updates regularly from HER desktop computer.  Did you see any problems in her computer that were significant in the first place????  (regardless of P C Power Speed)  Do you see any reason that her other devices are infected with anything because of what you found in her computer?

                      Anything left to do?

                      Check if the program has it's own uninstaller. If not, use the second method.

                        Yes, it had it's own un-installer.  However, last night I decided that if there was one bad way to uninstall, you'd have said so.  Soooo..., in a quick note above,

                        "I went ahead and pulled up add/remove programs and deleted P. C. Power Speed, (which showed itself as version 1.0.0.27).  It seemed to work quickly and the undesired program no longer shows up as a desktop icon or in 'all programs.' 

                        I wonder if it really did completely remove it???  Could something still be buried in the registry?  (I don't know much about working in the registry)

                        ??

                        Follow up point:  my wife has an iPad she likes.  Along with her iPhone and iPod, she has put them all on Apple's, "iCloud."  Which she updates regularly from the desktop computer you are working on here.  Did you see any problems in her computer that were significant in the first place
                        (regardless of P C Power Speed)?  Do you see any reason that her other devices could be infected with anything because of what you found in her computer?

                        Anything left to do?"

                        No, there wasn't anything dangerous on the computer.

                          Thank you again, Dave.  My wife and I both are getting pretty excited about this.

                          Ok. We should do some cleanup.

                          To uninstall ComboFix

                          • Click the Start button. Click Run. For Vista: type in Run in the Start search, and click on Run in the results pane.
                          • In the field, type in ComboFix /uninstall


                          (Note: Make sure there's a space between the word ComboFix and the forward-slash.)

                          • Then, press Enter, or click OK.
                          • This will uninstall ComboFix, delete its folders and files, hides System files and folders, and resets System Restore.
                          ********************************************
                          Click Start> Computer> right click the C Drive and choose Properties> enter
                          Click Disk Cleanup from there.



                          Click OK on the Disk Cleanup Screen.
                          Click Yes on the Confirmation screen.



                          This runs the Disk Cleanup utility along with other selections if you have chosen any. (if you had a lot System Restore points, you will see a significant change in the free space in C drive)
                          ********************************************
                          Go to Microsoft Windows Update and get all critical updates.

                            Dave:

                            I've done everything up to getting the Web of Trust which will be next.  I'll work through your suggestions for maintenance now.

                            I'm guessing that about winds it up.    ?? 

                            I really appreciate your help and my wife appreciates it even more !

                            Thank you,
