Re: Virus affecting Google

[eigermann]

Hello, I am experiencing the same issue, let me add some details so we can get over with it:

Accessing google.com shows you a portuguese text (with a text from google brasil) saying  that you need to upgrade java, and provides a link for it,, the ´virus´redirects you here -http://77.240.96.201/install_Java7x32ax_mssd_aih.scr-,

In my case - 3 pcs on the same network, 2 of them wireless, all have the same problem, also google.com.ar (my country) gives a connection error.

I do not think this is a local virus (i mean, running from a pc) because ive tried google.com with my mobile (android, instaled day before an never connected) and shows the the same ´brazilian page´. also Ive tried with all the other pcs turned off, in case one of them would be acting as a server for the virus.

Also Ive run some antivirus and malware bits in 2 pcs and nothing.


At first I thought it was some kind of man in the middle attack, someone sniffing my network, so ive changed all passwds of modem, router and reset connection to no avail. 

Currently I dont really know what to think

some ideas? Ill keep looking for a solution, if I find something Ill report
Thanks

Edit: Using a a webproxy (hidemyass.com) seems to let me use google.
Its a issue that works with your ipadress? or maybe a script undetectable by antivirus?

also: some guy uploaded a video of it http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XcXPet2zL_o

Troubleshooting ComboFix
 
Safe Mode:
 
If you still cannot get ComboFix to run, try booting into Safe Mode, and run it there.
 
(To boot into Safe Mode, tap F8 after BIOS, and just before the Windows
logo appears. A list of options will appear, select "Safe Mode.")
 
Re-downloading:
 
If this doesn't work either, try the same method (above method), but try to download it again, except name
ComboFix.exe to iexplore.exe, explorer.exe, or winlogon.exe.
 
Malware is known for blocking all "user" processes, except for its whitelist of system important processes such as iexplore.exe, explorer.exe, winlogon.exe.
 
NOTE: If you encounter a message "illegal operation attempted on registry key that has been marked for deletion" and no programs will run - please just reboot and that will resolve that error.
