Title: Sudden decrease in computer perfomance. Chance of corrupted OS?
Post by: Hakezu on July 15, 2015, 04:47:22 PM
First and foremost I would like to say thank you to everyone who's willing to help me out, I know you guys are probably busy with posts like this all the time and I appreciate that you looked into this one.  :)

Yesterday I commenced a scan with Malwarebytes and Avast while going to take a nap, however when I got back 6 hours later I noticed that the programs didn't finish scanning so I stopped it. That was when I started noticing a lot of temporary freezes.

I then went to safe mode and did a scan there.

Malwarebytes was able to detect 3 malwares, however when trying to scan with Avast in safe mode it states that I could not start a scan as it could not find an endpoint.

Edit: Not sure if this will contribute to anything, but currently every time I open up Steam it will install(or attempt to install) an update which takes a lot longer than it usually does. However, whenever it finishes doing its' update and Steam opens it'll pop-up another alert about having a new update. Which then loops back to the beginning.

Also, when I updated Mozilla, I noticed that the Mozilla folder had a .bak at the end of it.

I had Malwarebytes before posting here for help, so I'll post the log that detected the 3+the other needed logs.

I would have posted these logs in as attachments, but it's not letting me. I guess it's because it's over 700KB.

Post by: SuperDave on July 15, 2015, 06:24:05 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.
*************************************************************************
Quote
I noticed that the Mozilla folder had a .bak at the end of it.
bak extension means it is a back up file or folder.
The MBAM log doesn't look correct. Could you post another one?

************************************************
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.

I wasn't able to edit my previous post, hence the double reply. Apologies.

Computer blue-screened while scanning with avast and Malwarebytes on normal mode, felt like I was using a computer from the 90's. Ridiculously slow and unresponsive at times.

I'm now on Safe Mode with Networking and notice a huge difference in computer processing speed.

Going to re-run Malwarebytes and JRT to see if JRT will be able to successfully delete somototoolbar and conduit.

Took awhile for the program to finish scanning, sorry for the late reply!
Should I delete the quarantined files?

I also did new JRT scan just to see the results after, and noticed that Conduit and Somototoolbar is still there, should I be worried?

Try to uninstall those toolbars and you can delete those quarantined files and let me know how your computer's working.

Those programs don't show up on the program list so I tried going to those folders manually.

I tried right-clicking and shift+delete the Somototoolbar folder but it would take a minute or so to calculate the amount and only delete 6 items, around 1.45kb but the folder is still there, and it does the same thing if I redo it.

As for Conduit, once I double-clicked Local folder, it starts lagging terribly however it would stop after a brief moment but if I clicked on the conduit folder(or any folder in there it seems) it freeze up my background and that window. It stops freezing if I close the window by hovering over the bottom and pressing x

I am still in safe mode with networking.

They are probably in the add-ons of your browser.

They all came from NCH Software. which is installed on your computer. If you don't use it, uninstall this program

Tried to uninstall all(three) programs by the Publisher of NCH, however when click uninstall it states that it seemed to have been already removed, and asked if I would like to remove it from the program list.

I still notice lag when in normal mode, also, my Windows 7 updates after shutting down appears to not progress, even after giving it 6+ hours. Which forces me to force shut down it.

Update: Used the Error-Check tool and noticed a great amount of improvement since before it.

Was able to delete Somototoolbar folder, and Conduit folder was gone when I checked the directory.

Steam no longer repeatedly asks for an update after the first one.


Did a System File Scan and showed there was no problem to the window's integrity. Also did a Disk Clean up, had 70gigs in my recycling bin and didn't even notice.


All seems well now, I appreciate the help SuperDave! Gave you your 900th "thanks" congrats!

If you could, please PM me your paypal e-mail. I would like to give you a tip!  :)

You're welcome. I'm glad you got this all sorted out. Sorry, I don't have a paypal site and I don't accept donations. The only thing we ask for is a thank you and perhaps, you can do something similar for someone else.
