If a virus is replicant (coming and coming again), you could follow the general cleaning procedure:

Disable System Restore on Windows ME or Windows XP. System Restore cannot be disabled on Windows 9x and it’s not available in Windows 2k. After boot you can enable System Restore again after step 3.
Clean your temporary files. You can use CleanUp or the Windows Advanced Care features for that.
Schedule a boot time scanning with avast. Start avast! > Right click the skin > Schedule a boot-time scanning. Select for scanning archives. Boot. Other option is scanning in SafeMode (repeatedly press F8 while booting).
It will be good if you download, install, update and run AVG Antispyware. Some users recommend SUPERantispyware, Spyware Terminator and/or a-squared (take care about false positives).
If any infection is detected, better and safer is send the file to Quarantine than to simple delete than.
If you still detecting any strange behavior or even you’re sure you’re not clean, maybe it will be good to test your machine with anti-rootkit applications. I suggest AVG or Panda.
Also, if you still detecting strange behaviors or you want to be sure you’re clean, maybe making a HijackThis log to post here and, specially, scan and submit to on-line analysis the RunScanner log would help to identify the problem and the solution.
After you’re clean, use the immunization of SpywareBlaster or, which is better, the Windows Advanced Care features of spyware/adware cleaning and removal.
Finally, when you’re clean, check for insecure applications with Secunia Software Inspector to update insecure applications and avoid reinfection.

So far it working Thanks

DavidR · 2007-10-13T12:13:34.000Z

What would be helpful to others is what tools did you try and what results were found.
What was the malware name, the infected file/s name and where it was located, e.g. (C:\windows\system32\infected-file-name.xxx) ?

If malware is found, then if possible you should send samples to avast so that detections can be improved.

Send the sample to virus@avast.com zipped and password protected with password in email body and false positive/undetected malware in the subject.

Or you can also add the file to the User Files (File, Add) section of the avast chest where it can do no harm and send it from there (select the file, right click, email to Alwil Software). No need to zip and PW protect when the sample is sent from chest. A copy of the file/s will remain in the original location, so any further action you take can remove that.

Welcome to the forums.

Tech post:2:

After you’re clean, use the immunization of SpywareBlaster or, which is better, the Windows Advanced Care features of spyware/adware cleaning and removal.

Ok, I’m sorry that I’m going off at a slight tangent here, but after your recommendation, I downloaded and installed this ‘Windows Advanced Care’ program.
It tells me that I have no infections, but that I should immunise about 34,000 items. Why? If so far, my security has held up okay, why do I need to immunise 34,000 (YES!! 34 THOUSAND!!) items??

Most importantly I feel, why, in regard to Startup items, is it telling me to remove startup entries for:

AVAST4/ASHDISP.EXE
ZoneAlarm
SpywareTerminator
ATI Graphics card

This is one weird program for you to be recommending!??!

system · 2007-10-14T05:20:35.000Z

Now i keep getting this weird background it says you privacy is in danger. If i click anything on my desktop(Link my computer) it opens a internet explorer window i can just click ctrl-alt-delete and end the iExplorer process or firefox depends on which one opens and it makes it go away for about 2 minutes

Heres the log you told me to post

Hi Colby.

The desktop problem is from a SmitFraud varient called Privacy Danger. There is also CoolWebSearch and a couple trojans in your log. You might want to print the following as there are several steps and you will not have an interent connection while working in safe mode.

Download Smitfraudfix from Here or Here. Double-click smitfraudfix.exe, Select 1 and hit Enter to create a report of the infected files. The report can be found at the root of the system drive, usually at C:\rapport.txt

Reboot your computer in Safe Mode (before the Windows icon appears, tap the F8 key continually).

Double-click smitfraudfix.exe, Select 2 and hit Enter to delete infect files.
You will be prompted: Do you want to clean the registry ? answer Y (yes) and hit Enter in order to remove the Desktop background and clean registry keys associated with the infection.

The tool will now check if wininet.dll is infected. You may be prompted to replace the infected file (if found): Replace infected file ? answer Y (yes) and hit Enter to restore a clean file. A reboot may be needed to finish the cleaning process.

To restore Trusted and Restricted site zone, select 3 and hit Enter.
You will be prompted: Restore Trusted Zone ? answer Y (yes) and hit Enter to delete trusted zone.

Note: process.exe is detected by some antivirus programs (AntiVir, Dr.Web, Kaspersky) as a “RiskTool”. It is not a virus, but a program used to stop system processes. Antivirus programs cannot distinguish between “good” and “malicious” use of such programs, therefore they may alert the user.
http://www.beyondlogic.org/consulting/proc...processutil.htm

Next, Download CWShredder Here to its own folder.

Update CWShredder
[]Open CWShredder and click I AGREE
[]Click Check For Update
[*]Close CWShredder

Boot into Safe Mode:
Restart your computer and as soon as it starts booting up again continuously tap F8. A menu should come up where you will be given the option to enter Safe Mode.

Now run CWShredder. Click I Agree, then Fix and then Next, let it fix everything it asks about. Reboot your computer into normal windows.

Now open HJT and click to Do a System Scan Only. When complete place a check mark next to the following lines that are still present

C:\WINDOWS\privacy_danger

Return to OTMoveIt, right click on the “Paste List of Files/Folders to be moved” window and choose Paste.
Click the red Moveit! button.
Copy everything on the Results window to the clipboard by highlighting ALL of them and pressing CTRL + C (or, after highlighting, right-click and choose copy), and paste it on your next reply with a new Hijack log.
Close OTMoveIt
If a file or folder cannot be moved immediately you may be asked to reboot the machine to finish the move process. If you are asked to reboot the machine choose Yes.

After completing everything above, post the SmitFraudFix log, the OTMoveIt results, and a fresh HJT log.

Please note: The following line must not be fixed in HJT

O10 - Unknown file in Winsock LSP: c:\windows\system32\nwprovau.dll

Doing so will kill your internet connection.

Please upload this file to Virus Total

The archive is called: “documentos de administrador”
I eliminate it, but then it comes back, the elimination process is the same as if it where the pc?
