How do I get rid of Win32:Pakes-AKM

Viruses and worms
1

Hello,

Avast has detected Win32:Pakes-AKM in C:winnt/system32/dbgen.dll on my desktop. This virus can not be deleted or sent to the chest…I have tried many times but keep getting an error message.

I have installed combofix but when I try to run it, I get a message saying it is not a valid win32 application. I am posting a new hijack this log.

I am kinda new to trouble shooting my own computer problems so any detailed help is appreciated. Thanks so much!!

That sometimes is a corrupt download. But just in case it’s malware, we’ll do it a little diferently and from safe mode please. So after the download, please boot to safe mode and run combo-fix .exe from there.

First delete the copy of combofix.exe you have, then procede.

It is vitally important that combofix is renamed before it is even started to download

Please download ComboFix from Here or Here to your Desktop.

Note: In the event you already have Combofix, this is a new version that I need you to download. It is important that it is saved directly to your desktop

[*]If you are using Firefox, make sure that your download settings are as follows:
-Tools->Options->Main tab
-Set to “Always ask me where to Save the files”.

[*]During the download, rename Combofix to Combo-Fix as follows:

http://i266.photobucket.com/albums/ii277/sUBs_/combofix/CF_download_FF.gif

http://i266.photobucket.com/albums/ii277/sUBs_/combofix/CF_download_rename.gif

[]It is important you rename Combofix during the download, but not after.
[]Please do not rename Combofix to other names, but only to the one indicated.
[]Close any open browsers.
[]Close/disable all anti virus and anti malware programs so they do not interfere with the running of ComboFix

[*]Very Important! Temporarily disable your anti-virus, script blocking and any anti-malware real-time protection before performing a scan. They can interfere with ComboFix or remove some of its embedded files which may cause “unpredictable results”.
[*]Click on this link to see a list of programs that should be disabled. The list is not all inclusive. If yours is not listed and you don’t know how to disable it, please ask.

[*]Close any open browsers.
[*]WARNING: Combofix will disconnect your machine from the Internet as soon as it starts
[]Please do not attempt to re-connect your machine back to the Internet until Combofix has completely finished.
[]If there is no internet connection after running Combofix, then restart your computer to restore back your connection.

[*]Double click on combofix.exe & follow the prompts.
[*]When finished, it will produce a report for you.
[*]Please post the “C:\ComboFix.txt” along with a new HijackThis log for further review.

Note: Do not mouseclick combofix’s window while it’s running. That may cause it to stall

Thanks for replying so fast. I checked the list of programs to be disabled and I have a few questions.

I checked my versions of Spybot S&D and Adaware along side the directions from the forum on disabling and it seems that both of my versions are not offering real time protection.

My version of spybot is farely old (I do not use it since I got avast). When I went to the resident section of spybot advanced mode, there was nothing in there and at the top of the menu it had a place to install the resident protection. I just left it as it already was. So there was nothing to disable in either program. Would it be best to delete these programs before running combofix and reinstall them afterwards?

Also, I have AVG anti-rootkit program also but I didn’t see anything in the forum about disabling the rootkit. Should I delete this as well?

I want to make sure that nothing is going to get in the way of combofix, so this virus can be cleaned up. Thanks again.

The main thing is not to have any resident scanners running. I’m sure AVG antirootkit is on demand. You should be all right. In safe mode none of these should be running anyways.

See you in a bit.

Here is the combo fix log and hijack this log. Just wanted to let you know that after combofix was finished and I connected to the internet I am getting internet explorer popups for something called Antispyware Master. It didn’t look legitimate so when I tried to exit out of the popup, my browser keeps being taken to a website to download the program. Didn’t know if this was some new virus that just happened or not. :slight_smile:

That got a chunk of it. We’ll go after a driver, then deal with the rogue program.

You should be able to do this part from normal windows. If it gives an error, then do it from safe mode.

Please follow all previous instructions regarding security programs.

Open a new Notepad session (Do not use a Word Processor or WordPad). Click “Format” and be certain that Word Wrap is not enabled.

Copy and paste all the text in the quote box below into Notepad.

Click File, Save as…, and set the location to your Desktop, and enter (including quotation marks) as the filename: “CFscript.txt” . Using your mouse left button, drag the new file CFscript.txt and drop it on the ComboFix.exe icon as shown at the bottom of this post.

KillAll::

File::
C:\WINNT\system32\drivers\davfbdaf.dat
C:\WINNT\system32\dbgen.dll

Rootkit::
C:\WINNT\system32\drivers\davfbdaf.dat

wzkdragz

This will start ComboFix again.Close all browser/windows first. After reboot, (in case it asks to reboot), post the contents of Combofix.txt in your next reply together with a new HJT log.

Hi Oldman,

I followed your instructions regarding combofix and after the computer rebooted I did not receive a combofix logfile. Also, I got a message saying microsoft had recovered from a serious error? How should I pull up the combofix logfile? I am posting a new HJT logfile below

Please disregard my previous message…I found the combix log in my C drive. Here it is. Is it okay to now start downloading ATF cleaner and superantispyware? Thanks

13

Check on c:\ drive for combofix.txt It will have a time stamp and a number ie combofix2.txt. Combofix numbers the logs backwards, the one with the smalest or no number is the newest. Check the time stamp. Also check c:\qoobox\quarantined you should find a removed txt. That will also show what was removed.

The BHO has been removed.

Caught me in time, disregard the above and carry on.

14

I have completed both tasks with ATF Cleaner and superantispyware. The superantispyware scan was done in safe mode but I don’t know where to find the logfile. I’ve already switched back to normal mode. Superantispyware found six trojan directories that were quarantined I believe. If I need to run the scan again please let me know. Thanks

15

No need to run it again the log will be found here

Open SAS, click the preferences button. Click the Statistics/Logs tab. Click on the log you wish to view, click view log. Copy and paste it into you next reply or save it and attach it.

Sorry I should have told you where it would be. :-[

How’s everything going at that end?

16

I am still having trouble finding the SAS log…I think since I ran the scan in safe mode, the log is not showing up once I switch back to normal mode. I saved the logfile to my desktop in safe mode but it also is not on my desktop when I switched back to normal. What do you suggest I do?

Also I had avast perform another thorough scan last night after the SAS scan and I will post that log below. The avast icon also keeps disappearing from my system tray. Thanks!!

That’s strange, the log should be in SAS. Have a look in “manage quarantine” Don’t restore anything, just see if anything was quarantined.

The avast detections where 1. combofix quarantined file, 2. system restore point, 3. may or may not be legit. no harm in removing either way.

The avast “a” icon will do that sometimes. We can do a reoair of avast afterwards.

Any other problems…is the rogue gone now?

18

I checked in the manage quarantine file and there is nothing there. I do know that SAS did detect several items and they were quarantined in safe mode and there was a logfile in safemode. Do you want me to go into safe mode and post the log that way?

I didn’t understand what you were saying about the avast detections in your previous message.

I believe the rogue (i believe your talking about the BHO) is now gone…haven’t had any other problems with it but when I did turn off the computer earlier, there was a pop up about not being able to close “shellcon hidden window”. I’ve had that before but can’t remember what is was or how I got rid of it.

Thanks

19

If you can find the log in safe mode, then please post it.

I was just summing up what the 3 avast detections where.

I see you have MUSIC MATCH, it is a common source of this (shellcon hidden window)

Go to Start | Run, and type MSCONFIG, startup tab. Untick the entry that looks like this: MimBoot. Apply and restart. This is the full location, just so you can see it better: C:\Program Files\MUSICMATCH\MUSICMATCH Jukebox\mimboot.exe
