Title: XP Antivirus
Post by: hunt3rshadow on August 21, 2008, 04:37:27 PM
Ok so I know theres another thread about it but I don't whats the case with mine. Earlier I downloaded something and somehow something popped up with Antivirus XP. I didn't install it and then my background automatically changed to this: 

(I cant seem to upload pics rite now because it says network error. NOTE: My internet is seriously acting like *censored* right now)

Description:
It a box in the background that says adware detected. Install blah blah to get rid of it. ( Im pretty sure its the work of Antivirus XP)



Then when I'm on google and do a search, and click on any result, it redirects me to some other website, most likely a strange search engine.

I've scanned with Super(didn't find any trojans just adware etc.) and Im currently scanning with malwarebytes.

Super Log:

Carbon I would do those and I have the logs  BUT I can't seem to copy and paste or email or attach. Anybody know what I should do?

If you cannot upload the logs, attach the logs, copy and paste the logs, I would try doing this in Safe Mode With Networking.

More info here:
http://www.computerhope.com/issues/chsafe.htm
(Instead of choosing Safe Mode, choose the next option down)

Hopefully this will allow you to post the logs.  ;)

What exactly can't you do?

Can you view the forum in your browser? Or can you not go online at all?

Try uploading them online. http://savefile.com/ You don't have to sign up to use the service, just post the links to them back here.

Post by: hunt3rshadow on August 22, 2008, 10:56:28 AM
I tried. It just freezes when it says uploading. I've tried it twice. Should I just try to type the logs. I can proabbly type out the MBAM log but not the hijack or super log

I would also recommend you downloading Spybot Search and Destroy (http://www.safer-networking.org/en/home/index.html), and doing a full scan.

When it is finished, make sure all items (if any) are checked, and click "Fix selected problems".

Before you download Spybot S&D, restart your computer.

kpac???


Unfortunately Spybot is not as powerful a tool as it used to be which is why we don't use it in the removal instructions.....

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

Link #1 (http://download.bleepingcomputer.com/sUBs/ComboFix.exe)
Link #2 (http://subs.geekstogo.com/ComboFix.exe)

**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 (http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/forums/topic114351.html) 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 and a new HijackThis 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.

I'm beginning to think that the problem is deeper then just malware. (no I don't know what)

Try this.

Run this online scan. Requires Internet Explorer

Use the  ESET Nod32 Online Scanner (http://www.eset.com/onlinescan/index.php)

1. Check the box next to YES, I accept the Terms of Use.
2. Click Start
3. When asked, allow the activex control to install
4. Click Start
5. Make sure that the option Remove found threats and the option Scan unwanted applications is check marked.
6. Click Scan
7. Wait for the scan to finish
8. Use notepad to open the logfile located at C:\Program Files\EsetOnlineScanner\log.txt
9. Add the C:\Program Files\EsetOnlineScanner\log.txt log into your next reply

There have been some lately that have basically rendered the PC useless. Each step taken to remove the virus(s) just makes things worse. This may be one of those cases.

Do you have an XP CD or a way to borrow one?

You mean the XP CD I used to install Windows on my PC correct?

Unfortunatley that hostExperts thing doesnt work either. I did what  your instructions stated but no luck. Is there any last ditch effort to save some important files on my computer?

Try this first. It will detect and repair any damaged system/windows files it finds.

Place your XP CD in your CD ROM drive and follow the instructions below:SFC - Which stands for System File Checker, retrieves the correct version of the file from %Systemroot%\System32\Dllcache or the Windows installation source files, and then replaces the incorrect file.

Oop I think you misunderstood my post about the windows XP CD. I don't have it. Is there anything else I could try. If not could you tell me anyway to save some of my programs/files?
Title: Re: XP Antivirus

The program files can be backed up onto a CD or flash drive.

Try to download and run this.

Download Dial-a-Fix (http://wiki.djlizard.net/Dial-a-fix#Mirrors.2Fdownload_locations.2C_and_articles) by djlizard, save it to the desktop then extract it to it's own folder.Let me know if IE behaves properly.

Try booting into Safe Mode and running a Full system scan with MalwareBytes.

if you're using xp or vista and have system restore points, I'd have just restored to an earlier date. However .... first complete the fixes that are already in place  :)

Have you got a Hijack This log at all? Or is it that you had to type it out?

I think it will be needed.
Title: Re: XP Antivirus
Post by: evilfantasy on August 22, 2008, 05:06:06 PM
Agreed, if we could get a HJT log at some point it would be a huge help.

This scan can only be run in Safe Mode.

Download SDFix (http://download.bleepingcomputer.com/andymanchesta/SDFix.exe) by AndyManchesta and save it to your desktop.

When using this tool, you must use the Administrator's account or an account with Administrative rights

Reboot your computer in Safe Mode (http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/tutorials/tutorial61.html) using the F8 method. To do this, restart your computer and after hearing your computer beep once during startup (but before the Windows icon appears) press the F8 key repeatedly. A menu will appear with several options. Use the arrow keys to navigate and select the option to run Windows in "Safe Mode".

Open the SDFix folder and double click RunThis.bat to start the script.

Yeah. isn't that what I said? I'd fix it a certain way that has helped me many times but evilfantasy is already taken him so far so why stop at this point?

What can you do with this PC?

Can you go to another computer and download all these tools? If you can, do that, and copy them to a flash drive or CD or something, and run them on the infected PC.

Thanks to everyone's help. I just got rid of this cursed thing by running MBAM multiple times then cleaning my registry. My computer's running fine so far and the background has changed back to normal.

It may seem fine, but the virus might be still on your computer.

I recommend you continue with posting the logs/following our instructions etc.

At least for now, I'd post a new HiJackThis Log and have evilfantasy review it one more time to be sure it's clean.

You don't want to have traces of diseases still lingering in your body that might potentially open up another problem even though you are now feeling fine and life appears to be going on normally.
