Smitfraud-C.Toolbar888 & outerinfo + Trojan Horses

[ash72]

Please can someone have a look at my hijack this log file?  I have cehcked this and other forums, performed some tasks advised, including smitfraudfix.exe, Bruteforce uninstaller and AVG 7.5 antispyware.  Spybot originally found the smitfraud and AVG 7.5 antispyware foubd trojan horses.  I think/hope I have sorted this now but was hoping for some expert advise.

Thanks.

Ash72.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks.

[CBMatt]

Ash, I've got you at the top of my list right now.  I have to go take care of a few things, but I'll get back to you within the hour.

[patio]

A Good Start

I would suggest printing out the instructions and becoming familiar with them beforehand...

Then run a fresh HJT log and post it and by that time Chris should be back...

[CBMatt]

Sorry, I was busy a bit longer than expected.

Patio's advice is sound.  Thankfully, though, your log looks relatively clean.  The only issue I see is this entry...

O20 - Winlogon Notify: winrvc32 - winrvc32.dll (file missing)

Just a leftover Smitfraud registry entry.  Close all windows and have HijackThis fix this entry.  The file should already be gone, but to be on the safe side, reboot into Safe Mode, enable hidden files/folders, and delete the following file if found...

C:\WINDOWS\system32\winrvc32.dll

Also, still being on the safe side, follow through with the SmitFraudFix instructions and run another scan with AVG.  Then go ahead and post a fresh HJT log along with an update on how things are going.

[ash72]

Hi Chris, thanks for you help.

I have followed yours and Patio's advice.  Here is the new Hijackthis log.  Is all OK?

It looks pretty clean to me.  Looks like you're doing a pretty decent job with protecting yourself.  Just a couple of things to go over...

In addition to AVG, I would suggest also getting Spybot - Search & Destroy and AdAware SE Personal.

For safer browsing you should use, Spyware Blaster and SiteAdvisor.  Both are very handy.

At this point, it would also be a good idea to clean out your restore points...

1.  Go to Start > Programs > Accessories > System Tools > System Restore
2.  Click on System Restore Settings.
3.  Check Turn off System Restore and click OK.
4.  Restart your computer.
5.  Follow steps 1 and 2 to return to the settings, uncheck Turn off System Restore, and click OK.
6.  Create a new restore point and close the program.

System Restore will now be active again.  If you would like to learn more about System Restore, go here.

Infections can return if you restore your computer to an older point for any reason, which is why it's best to do this.  By following all of my steps here, you should be a lot safer online.

[ash72]

Thanks Chris I will do that now.  I already use Spybot - Search & Destroy and Adaware SE Personal.  I will have a look at the safe browsing options.

Thank you very much for your help.

[CBMatt]

You're welcome; come back anytime.

And you're right, I see Spybot in your logs.  Silly me.  Heh.

[unlovedwarrior]

get superantispyware it does good at smitfruad and other things as well

[ash72]

Chris

Thanks for your advice on this.  I have cleaned out my system restore and intalled Spyware Blaster and Site Advisor. I am very impressed with Site Advisor.

As far as I can tell my PC is working absolutely fine now.

Once again, thanks for your help and recommendations.

[CBMatt]

I'm glad things are going well for you.  SiteAdvisor is a handy program, but make sure you actually read the reports before entering sites you're not familiar with.  It's still a work in progress, so some sites that are green-lighted aren't always trustworthy (DoubleClick for example).  And just because a site is red-flagged, that doesn't always mean it's bad (Free Download Manager for example).  Please use your own discretion and common sense when viewing unknown sites.
