Post by: darksoul on February 10, 2014, 03:34:16 AM

Post by: SuperDave on February 10, 2014, 12:17:13 PM
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.
*************************************************************************
Please run MBAM again. Make sure all infections have a checkmark and click on "Remove Selected".
*************************************************
Please download Junkware Removal Tool (http://thisisudax.org/downloads/JRT.exe) to your desktop.

•Warning! Once the scan is complete JRT will shut down your browser with NO warning.

•Shut down your protection software now to avoid potential conflicts.

•Temporarily disable your Antivirus and any Antispyware real time protection before performing a scan. Click this  (http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/forums/topic114351.html) link to see a list of security programs that should be disabled and how to disable them.

•Run the tool by double-clicking it. If you are using Windows Vista or Windows 7, right-click JRT and select Run as Administrator

•The tool will open and start scanning your system.

•Please be patient as this can take a while to complete depending on your system's specifications.

•On completion, a log (JRT.txt) is saved to your desktop and will automatically open.

•Copy and Paste the JRT.txt log into your next message
****************************************
Download Security Check by screen317 from one of the following links and save it to your desktop.

Link 1 (http://screen317.spywareinfoforum.org/SecurityCheck.exe)
Link 2 (http://screen317.changelog.fr/SecurityCheck.exe)

* 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.

I apologize for the late response.  I scheduled Thursday with my friend to work on her computer some more.  I will post the MBAM log, JRT log, and security check log on Thursday, Febuary 13 2014. 

Thank you for your patience.

No problem. I'll wait for the logs.

Post by: darksoul on February 19, 2014, 01:10:40 AM
I printed out the instructions and handed them to my friend.  She has been very busy lately.   I will reply back to this thread as soon as anything changes and with any logs requested.

Thank you for all the advice and assistance.  Especially your patience.

Thank you for the quick reply.  I will email her and text her the importance of running a scan with Malwarebytes' Anti-Rootkit.  Is there evidence of a Rootkit stealing personal information?  If so, then would it by advisable to recommend she change all account passwords, update retrieval information, and especially remove all credit cards/debit cards associated to any online stores?

I forgot to mention in my last reply, that a VuuPc installer appears on the screen after bootup and during normal operations on the computer.  I looked it up and its a third party application for Remote Assistance.

Thank you for the quick response.

Not yet but I just want to be sure.

Look in Control Panel, Remove Programs and see if it's there. If it is, please uninstall it.

I looked in the Add/Remove programs control panel and VuuPc was not listed. 

I will run Malwarebytes' Anti-Rootkit the next time she is available.  I am hoping its soon, so her computer doesn't end up loosing her school work.  She says its backed up on a flash drive :). 

Her computer had an NTLDR file missing screen, awhile back.  I read an article on how to replace it using the Windows XP installation CD or a recovery console CD.  A computer repair shop made a Windows XP Home SP2 CD for recovery purposes.  I think it was the wrong version of the NTLDR file.  Her computer is running Windows XP Home SP3 and the NTLDR I replaced with was a SP2 version.  Is it possible this could cause the computer to be unstable as well?

Thank you again for any advice.

Let's check the MBR(master boot record)
Here (http://www.computerhope.com/issues/ch000465.htm) is some info on NTLDR problem.

Please download aswMBR.exe (http://public.avast.com/%7Egmerek/aswMBR.exe) ( 511KB ) to your desktop.

Double click the aswMBR.exe to run it

(http://i424.photobucket.com/albums/pp322/digistar/aswMBR_Scan.jpg)

Click the "Scan" button to start scan

Note: Do not take action against any **Rootkit** entries until I have reviewed the log. Often there are false positives

(http://i424.photobucket.com/albums/pp322/digistar/aswMBR_SaveLog.png)

On completion of the scan click save log, save it to your desktop and post in your next reply

I hope to keep this thread open longer.  I am in the process of scheduling a day, as it's my friends' computer,  to check out the Master Boot Record  using aswMBR by AVAST.

Thank you for patience and understanding.
