Title: Computer is: Freezing, Slowing Down, Randomly Restarting (+Multiple Keyloggers)
Post by: sjn2009 on August 08, 2008, 02:16:37 PM
Lately without warning I have been having issues where my computer gets a little slower. If I am playing an online game my latency skyrockets to the high 800's and sometimes low 1000. Then later I could be doing anything and suddenly my computer freezes and not knowing what to do I will press my "Turbo Reset" button located on the front of my tower. After the computer completely reboots I will notice my cursor "skips", just as a record does when scratched or warped, and it won't go away for awhile. Soon after that issue the cycle restarts and my computer freezes or on rare occasion it will restart itself but not without alerting me with a black screen that covers the screen.

-Following Step 1 of the "Malware Removal Steps", I looked through and saw a few programs I am familiar with and the rest I haven't a clue what they are. Here are two screen shots of the list, perhaps someone can help me identify them and determine if they are needed/malicious.

-I completed Step 2 without any problems.
-I completed Step 3 without any problems, it did find some files and removed them.
-I completed Step 4 and had a few problems. While it was running AVG kept giving me threat pop-ups about different keyloggers found such as "msni.exe" and some .delf thing. However MBAM did not detect anything.
-I completed Step 5 and my Java is the most recent.
-I completed Step 6 and have begun my own forum post. :)

Title: Re: Computer is: Freezing, Slowing Down, Randomly Restarting (+Multiple Keyloggers)
Post by: sjn2009 on August 08, 2008, 05:02:47 PM
After having my computer on for a few hours while doing the scans, cleaning up some old picutres/music and such I noticed my computer hadn't froze once... So I thought I could try to play my game but to my demise 4 minutes into the game my computer froze.

So it seems I only have the freezing problem when playing games, so perhaps malware isn't causing it but I don't want to rule that out until I get some help. Because it's apparent I have something on my computer or AVG wouldn't keep detecting things randomly.

I'm assuming World of Warcraft is the one giving you the most trouble?  One of your infections was designed to try to steal account information from WoW players.  It should be gone, according to HJT, let's err on the side of caution here.

There are a few things that I want you to do...

1.  Once we start, you won't have access to this post anymore, so I recommend that you print out this post or save it to a Notepad file.  Open HijackThis and scan again.  Check the following entries, but don't do anything to them yet...

R1 - HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Internet Settings,ProxyOverride = *.local

O20 - Winlogon Notify: Fly - smart.dll (file missing)
O20 - Winlogon Notify: Love - LoveFly.dll (file missing)

Now, close all windows (including this one) besides HijackThis, then click Fix Checked.  Close HijackThis and reboot into Safe Mode (http://www.computerhope.com/issues/chsafe.htm) and enable hidden files and folders (http://www.computerhope.com/issues/ch000516.htm).

Go to Start > Settings > Control Panel > Add/Remove Programs and remove the following (if present)...

Java(TM) 6 Update 5
Java(TM) 6 Update 3
Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment 6
J2SE Runtime Environment 5.0 Update 6
J2SE Runtime Environment 5.0 Update 8
J2SE Runtime Environment 5.0 Update 9

Note:  These programs are safe, but old versions of Java should be deleted, as they may cause a security risk and they take up a lot of space.  Do not remove Java(TM) 6 Update 7!

Navigate to and delete the following file(s) if present...

C:\WINDOWS\system32\smart.dll
C:\WINDOWS\system32\LoveFly.dll

Once you've done all of this, reboot into Normal Mode and follow the next step...



2.  Download Dr.Web CureIt! (http://ftp://ftp.drweb.com/pub/drweb/cureit/drweb-cureit.exe) & save it to your desktop.
You can use Notepad to open the DrWeb.cvs report by right clicking it and selecting Open with > Notepad
(Courtesy of evilfantasy.)



3.  Download ComboFix (http://download.bleepingcomputer.com/sUBs/ComboFix.exe) and save it to your desktop.  Run the program and read its disclaimer (it's fairly short) and make sure you really pay attention to what it says.  Follow the prompts and when finished, it will produce a log at C:\ComboFix.txt.  Go ahead and post that here.  Note: Don't click on the window while it's running; this may cause stalls.




In your next post, I would like to see the logs from ComboFix and Dr. Web Cureit, along with a fresh new HijackThis log.

Just a quick update and a side issue I'll need help with after I get these problems taken care of... The reason my computer "Freezes" during game play is because the fan on my graphics card isnt moving. So the card just overheats because of all the advanced graphics in the game. I assume this is very dangerous for me to play anything without repairing. So if someone could help me figure out that issue later that would be great.
The Dr.Web thing is taking forever but I will have the log soon.

Title: Re: Computer is: Freezing, Slowing Down, Randomly Restarting (+Multiple Keyloggers)
Post by: sjn2009 on August 09, 2008, 08:02:04 PM
Also my brother gave me an unopened "Vcool" from Antec fan that fits where 2 normal PCI slots go so I'm hoping putting that in can help my over heat issue. However im still looking for ideas on how to fix the Graphics card built in fan. I went to a local computer store and they said they didnt have much to over for a "nVidia GeForce 6600 GT" other than a DIY Cooling system which to me looked like something I made in a welding class once.

Any thoughts there? But ofc the computers safety is priority to my game playing.

Those scans should've helped.  Go ahead and post a final HijackThis log so I can make sure you're clean.


As for your hardware issue, this is definitely a problem and you should resolve it as fast as you can.  Installing that other fan should help out quite a bit.  It may be possible to find the necessary parts on eBay, so you can also fix the fan for your graphics card.  Unfortunately, my specialty is malware removal...I'm not much of a hardware wizard.  You should go ahead and post about this in the Hardware section of our forum, and I'm sure somebody will be able to give you the help/advice you need.

I unplugged my computer to install the new fan and when I came back AVG now says Anti-Virus and Anti-Spyware are out of date... So I tried to update and it said there are no new updates. Any idea whats wrong there?

Your log looks clean...however, there is something that I just noticed.  Before I give you the clean bill of health, I want to check for a CoolWebSearch infection...

Download CWShredder here (http://cwshredder.net/bin/CWShredder.exe) to its own folder.

Update CWShredder
Boot into Safe Mode:
Restart your computer and as soon as it starts booting up again, continuously tap F8.  A menu should come up where you will be given the option to enter Safe Mode.

Now run CWShredder.  Click I Agree, then Fix, and then Next.  Let it fix everything it asks about.  Reboot your computer back into Normal Mode.




Let me know how that goes and post yet another log (sorry, but I need to make sure).  As for AVG, it's hard to say what the problem might be because the new AVG has a lot of issues.  Do you have AVG 8 and AVG Anti-Spyware, or do you simply have the Anti-Spyware that comes bundled with AVG 8?  If you have the two programs installed separately, that can cause a lot of problems.  If that's not the case, then there's no telling what the problem might be.  I would suggest stopping by the AVG forum (http://freeforum.avg.com) to ask about that because they would have a better idea of what might be going on.

The CWShredder link doesn't seem to be working. But I got it off http://www.intermute.com/products/cwshredder.html
But the AVG issue solved when I restarted my computer. I think it might have been due to the fact that the clock was an hour behind in the year 2088.

I pressed Check for Update and it resulted with this in the text box above:
"Checking for a new version of CWShredder from Trend Micro.

Unable to check for updates."

So I did the rest of the steps anyways and heres the resulting log (It said no CoolWebSearch found):

The CWShredder link doesn't seem to be working. But I got it off http://www.intermute.com/products/cwshredder.html
Sorry, I haven't had to use that program in quite awhile.  Looks like I'll have to update my link!

But the AVG issue solved when I restarted my computer. I think it might have been due to the fact that the clock was an hour behind in the year 2088.
Ah, yes, although incorrect dates are easy to spot, incorrect times can slip by because I'm not viewing the logs live, so I really don't know if the times are right or not.  In any case, you are right about that being the problem; AVG is very picky about your clock having the correct settings.  If it's off by a certain amount, AVG is unable to update like it should.




As for the log...everything seems fairly normal.  I'm just concerned because of this line of your HJT log: MSIE: Unable to get Internet Explorer version!  In every case I have seen this, it has been related to CoolWebSearch.  You don't show any other symptoms, however, and your log is clean.  So, I have to admit that I'm not quite sure what could be causing this to happen.

I have heard that it can sometimes be related to Messenger Plus.  You have MSN Messenger, but I don't see Messenger Plus anywhere on your computer.  You can check your Add/Remove Programs, though, and if it's there, try uninstalling it and posting a new HJT log.  If it's not there, then simply skip this.

It's also possible that your IE has managed to become corrupted and needs to be repaired...
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/318378



I would try performing a repair install and then posting a new HJT log to see if that issue has been fixed.  But as far as actual infections, your computer looks clean.  However, you're vulnerable without a decent firewall, so you should look into getting either ZoneAlarm (http://www.zonelabs.com/store/content/catalog/products/sku_list_za.jsp?lid=dbtopnav_za), Kerio Personal Firewall (http://www.sunbelt-software.com/Kerio.cfm), or Comodo (http://www.personalfirewall.comodo.com).  They're all good free firewalls.  Just be sure you only have one installed at a time!  Download the firewall of your choice, disconnect from the internet, disable Windows Firewall, and install your new firewall.
