    Click Start > Control Panel > System > Hardware > Device Manager > View > Show Hidden Devices.
    • Scroll down to “Non-plug and Play Drivers” and click the plus icon to open those drivers.
    • Then search for TDSSserv.sys
    • Let me know if you find this or not.
    • If you do find it, right click on it, and select “Disable”. Do not try to uninstall it.
    • Now reboot.
    .
    Let me know if you found and disabled this.

          Don't worry we'll start making progress soon.

          Not sure if you installed VistaDrive but it's a nasty program. See here > http://www.systemlookup.com/Startup/13906-VistaDrive_exe.html

          Open HijackThis and select Do a system scan only.

          Place a check mark next to the following entries: (if there)

          - O2 - BHO: WormRadar.com IESiteBlocker.NavFilter - {3CA2F312-6F6E-4B53-A66E-4E65E497C8C0} - (no file)
          - O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [VistaDrive] C:\WINDOWS\VistaDrive\VistaDrive.exe


          Important: Close all open windows except for HijackThis and then click Fix checked.

          Once completed, exit HijackThis.

          ----------

          Note: the below instructions were created specifically for this user. If you are not this user, DO NOT follow these directions as they could damage the workings of your system

          Go to Start > Run and type notepad.exe then click OK

          Copy and paste the below into Notepad and save as fixme.reg to Your Desktop

          Code: [Select]
          REGEDIT4

          [-HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\Browser Helper Objects\{3CA2F312-6F6E-4B53-A66E-4E65E497C8C0}]

          [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\software\microsoft\windows\currentVersion\Run]
          "VistaDrive"=-

          Locate fixme.reg on your Desktop and double-click it. Answer Yes when prompted to merge with the Registry.

          Delete the fixme.reg from the Desktop.

          ----------

          Download ComboFix© by sUBs from one of the below links. Be sure top save it to the Desktop.

          Link #1
          Link #2

          **Note:  It is important that it is saved directly to your Desktop

          Close any open Web browsers. (Firefox, Internet Explorer, etc) before starting ComboFix.

          Temporarily disable your antivirus, and any antispyware real time protection before performing a scan. Click this link to see a list of security programs that should be disabled and how to disable them.
           
          Double click combofix.exe & follow the prompts.
          When finished ComboFix will produce a log for you.
          Post the ComboFix log in your next reply.

          Important: Do not mouseclick ComboFix's window while it is running. That may cause it to stall.

          Remember to re-enable your antivirus and antispyware protection when ComboFix is complete.

            Scan Suspicious File(s)

            Please go to VirusTotal.com
            (If more than one file needs scanned they must be done separately and logs posted for each one)

            1. Copy the file path in the below Code box:
            Code: [Select]
            c:\windows\system32\wb.exe2. At the upload site, click once inside the window next to Browse.
            3. Press Ctrl+V on the keyboard (both at the same time) to paste the file path into the window.
            4. Next click Send File
            Your file will possibly be entered into a queue which normally takes less than a minute to clear.
            This will perform a scan across multiple different virus scanning engines.
            Important: Wait for all of the scanning engines to complete.
            5. Copy and then Paste the link to the results in the next reply.

            ----------

            Do you know what this is?

            [HKLM\~\services\sharedaccess\parameters\firewallpolicy\standardprofile\GloballyOpenPorts\List]
            "7017:TCP"= 7017:TCP:bgbccdmg

                OK. I think it's a clean file but am not 100% sure. We will deal with it later if needed.

                This is really testing my skills by the way. The Conficker worm is a pretty nasty piece of malware! ;) But I think I have found all of it. We will run a special tool after ComboFix just to be sure.

                Note: the below instructions were created specifically for this user. If you are not this user, DO NOT follow these directions as they could damage the workings of your system

                Delete these files/folders, as follows:

                1. Go to Start > Run > type Notepad.exe and click OK to open Notepad.
                 It must be Notepad, not Wordpad.
                2. Copy the text in the below code box by highlighting all the text and pressing Ctrl+C

                Code: [Select]
                KillAll::

                Driver::
                sqdhuvyqs

                File::
                c:\windows\system32\sgnofqyb.dll

                Registry::

                [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\ControlSet001\Services\sqdhuvyqs]
                "ServiceDll"=-

                [HKLM\~\services\sharedaccess\parameters\firewallpolicy\standardprofile\GloballyOpenPorts\List]
                "7017:TCP"=-

                [-HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Svchost  - NetSvcs sqdhuvyqs]

                [-HKEY_CURRENT_USER\software\microsoft\windows\currentversion\explorer\mountpoints2\F]

                3. Go to the Notepad window and click Edit > Paste
                4. Then click File > Save
                5. Name the file CFScript.txt - Save the file to your Desktop
                6. Then drag the CFScript (hold the left mouse button while dragging the file) and drop it (release the left mouse button) into ComboFix.exe as you see in the screenshot below. Important: Perform this instruction carefully!



                ComboFix will begin to execute, just follow the prompts.
                After reboot (in case it asks to reboot), it will produce a log for you.
                Post that log (Combofix.txt) in your next reply.

                Note: Do not mouseclick ComboFix's window while it is running. That may cause your system to freeze

                ----------

                After posting the ComboFix log please run the Win32/Conficker.A Removal Tool by Symantec. See this page if needed.

                Follow these steps to download and run the tool:

                Note: If you are sure that you are downloading this tool from the Security Response Web site, you can skip this step. If you are not sure, or are a network administrator and need to authenticate the files before deployment, follow the steps in the "Digital signature" section before proceeding with step 4.
                • Close all the running programs.
                • If you are on a network or if you have a full-time connection to the Internet, disconnect the computer from the network and the Internet.
                • If you are running Windows Me or XP, turn off System Restore. For instructions on how to turn off System Restore, read your Windows documentation, or one of the following articles:
                • Locate the file that you just downloaded.
                • Double-click the FixDownadup.exe file to start the removal tool.
                • Click Start to begin the process, and then allow the tool to run.
                .
                ---

                Let me know when that is done. And how the computer is acting now.

                ,

                  OK looks better. Still some work to do.

                  Save the below Attached file to your desktop.

                      * Right Click on the attached file fix.zip
                      * Click Open
                      * Double-click on fix.bat and allow it to run.
                      * A Notepad file will open. Please post the contents of that file, Log.txt, in your next reply.

                  -----

                  Next:

                  Run the Kaspersky Online Scanner

                  In Microsoft Windows Vista, you must open the Web browser using the Run as Administrator command. From the Desktop right click the icon to open the browser and choose Run as Administrator.

                  • Click on SCAN NOW
                  • Click Accept.
                  • The program will then begin downloading the latest definition files.
                  • Once the files have been downloaded locate the Scan Settings and have it scan My Computer.
                  • The scan will take a while, so be patient and let it finish.
                  When the scan is done, in the Scan is complete window, any infection is displayed.
                  There is no option to clean/disinfect, however, we need to analyze the information on the report.

                  To obtain the report:
                  Click on: Save Report As
                  • Next, in the Save as prompt, Save in area, select: Desktop.
                  • In the File name area use KScan, or something similar.
                  • In Save as type: click the drop arrow and select: Text file [*.txt]
                  • Then, click: Save


                  Copy and paste the Kaspersky Online Scanner Report in your next reply.

                  Note for Internet Explorer 7 users: If at any time you have trouble viewing the accept button of the license, click on the Zoom tool located at the bottom right of the IE window and set the zoom to 75%. Once the license is accepted, reset to 100%.
