Avast detected ia virus when it arrived (I think) and I chose to delete it. However a file Oxf9.exe was recognized later Kaspersky as the virusBackdoor.Win32.Bandok.ii. Could it be the same? Panda found it also but called it Adware/picsplace; McAfee could not find it; and running Avast does not find it either. HouseCall found Adwawre_adclicker; Adware_inet; and Adaware_memwatcher and apparently cleand these.
I have run Kaspersky again and the it detectes the virus in the fil just as before.
In Avast’s Warning log I have the following:
18/10/2008 23:43:31 SYSTEM 1332 Sign of “Win32:Trojan-gen {Other}” has been found in “C:\DOCUME~1\Qimi\LOCALS~1\Temp\csrss5.dll” file.
How do I clean it manually? Can I just delete the file Oxf9.exe? Is this related to csrss5.dll which I cannot find anymore?
Meanwhile until you reply, I am going to rename the extension and move it elsewhere.
Incidentally, I turned off System Restore before I did the scans and the first Kaspersky, Panda, McAfee and HouseCall were done in Safe Mode
Thanks. I appreciate your advice. But right now what I need is some help identifying the culprit (Oxf9.exe) and how to safely remove it.
Can you help?
For instance is Oxf9.exe related to the Warning I received from Avast: “Win32:Trojan-gen {Other}” has been found in “C:\DOCUME~1\Qimi\LOCALS~1
\Temp\csrss5.dll” file
And why did Avast not deal with it, if it is the same thing?

Really hard to say. Malware often has many component parts, and one AV may recognise some parts but not others, especially as malware writers constantly try to disguise their malware by creating new variants. On the other hand, it may be something entirely unrelated.

Please note that I changed the file extension more than once from .exe to .exit and back again and that I took it out of the root C:\ directory and placed in a folder on the Desktop. What you got now is the Desktop version with the .exe extension. I will go now and change it back again before it executes…
I have a csrss.exe in HK_Current User\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run pointing to c:\Documents&Settings\AllUsers\ ApplicationData\csrss.exe
Shouldn’t e there, right? I’ve unchecked in the startup tab of MSConfig. What next?
