Hello and welcome

For Brontok please skip aswMBR and MBAM, we will take care about it later. Please post for my reviev FRST and Addition reports. If you’ll encounter any issues (met some cases where Brontok was rebooting system while generating logs), let me know and we will find another way of taking this one down.

Cheers,
Naat

Malwarebytes suddenly stopped responding. Is that one of the signs of the virus preventing logs?

system · 2014-07-24T13:23:41.000Z

Probably.

I can’t tell without any logs. That’s why I asked you to skip MBAM & aswMBR and post me only FRST & Addition reports.

system · 2014-07-27T01:51:28.000Z

It won’t let me post the FRST and Addition logs. :o

system · 2014-07-27T02:59:24.000Z

You can’t attach them to your post?

If no joy, please do the following:
[]Go to Wklej.org website.
[*]Paste the plain text of your logfiles there in the big box (may be altogether or separately for each logfile).
[*]Press the big Wklej + button at the bottom.
[]Go to the address bar at the top, copy it and paste into your reply.

Critical warning - there’s a Backdoor present!

Unfortunately your machine seems to be heavy compromised by a Backdoor Trojan. This type of infection allows hackers to remotely control your computer, steal critical system information and download and execute files. My advices for this moment:
[]Disconnect this machine from the internet.
[]Change your online passwords from a well-known clean computer (not this one!).
[*]It would be also wise to inform financial institutions about your situation - see here.

Many experts believe that the best action should be reformat and reinstall, but I think that we can still be able to clean this one and return it to its normal funcionality (with no security guarantee afterwards, as this is a very severe type of infection).

[]If you plan to rather reinstall your system, let me know if I could provide any help during that procedure.
[]If you wish to omit the reinstallation, just please proceed with the next steps directed.

I believe that we can kill this nasty bad guy

sorry kinda lost in “plug in the drive” How do you do that?

system · 2014-07-28T11:52:40.000Z

http://www.geekstogo.com/forum/public/style_emoticons/default/oops.gif

Sorry for not being clear enough. The infection you have came from a removable media (like memory card, USB drive). McShield is designed to scan all plugged in removable ones to detect and delete this kind of infections. So after the installation and the initial system scan (which should remove the infection), please make sure that you connect all removable media you have got to clean them too.

After that post the logfile(s) located under the Logs tab.

system · 2014-07-28T12:11:29.000Z

Ok so is it like risk taking? I will try to put in the source of this mishap

system · 2014-07-28T12:30:40.000Z

Can I skip that step since I found out that the virus is now nowhere to be found because MCShield told me that Malware is nowhere to be found. Since the originating driver is the psp, after formatting the device virus is like cleared also. But the virus still exists on my sister’s laptop in which I got the virus.

Is it advisable to skip the MCShield procedure?

system · 2014-07-28T13:04:16.000Z

Is it advisable to skip the MCShield procedure?

If you have already installed McShield you may omit the removable drives scan.

But the virus still exists on my sister's laptop in which I got the virus.

You mean that the second machine is also infected? If so, stay with me and we may clear it later in this topic, after finishing this one. Just please do not take any actions on your own, nor implement there same instructions as given here - instructions are made for this particular machine only and no other, even containing the same infection.

Please proceed with ComboFix, after careful reading of my instructions

system · 2014-07-28T13:14:59.000Z

Ah yes since I do not want to accidentally destroy someones laptop.

system · 2014-07-28T13:32:17.000Z

Don’t worry.
ComboFix used properly shouldn’t do any harm.

The infections present here are a good indicator to deploy it right now

system · 2014-07-29T04:37:06.000Z

After scanning, Avast suddenly does it again. The repetitive warnings but scan is not yet finished. Then momentsassed the scan finished and requested for reboot. Windows checked the file system on C:.

Is it like nothinto worry about? I also remembered turning off avast shield system with the setting of "after the desktop reboot. " something likethat

system · 2014-07-29T04:57:09.000Z

and I can’t seem to find the logs and the pop up keeps coming. Should I do the scan of the combofix again?

system · 2014-07-29T15:53:24.000Z

Weird.

Let’s re-run FRST.

Looks like CF didn’t work as planned.

First of all I need to warn you. Any use of Keygens, HackTools, Cracks or similar stuff is considered bad here. Bare in mind my expectation that it needs to be removed from your system, as well as any pirated software. If you won’t do this, any help here will be suspended.

Please remove any of it and report here. Then we will continue.
