Hi there,

To make cleaning this machine easier
[*]Please do not uninstall/install any programs unless asked to
It is more difficult when files/programs are appearing in/disappearing from the logs.
[*]Please do not run any scans other than those requested
[*]Please follow all instructions in the order posted
[*]All logs/reports, etc… must be posted in Notepad. Please ensure that word wrap is unchecked. In notepad click format, uncheck word wrap if it is checked.
[*]Do not attach any logs/reports, etc… unless specifically requested to do so.
[*]If you have problems with or do not understand the instructions, Please ask before continuing.
[*]Please stay with this thread until given the All Clear. A absence of symptoms does not mean a clean machine.

.
.
We’ll use combofix again, but run it differently.

Please follow all previous instructions regarding security programs.

Open a new Notepad session
[*]Click the Start button, click run
[*]in the run box type notepad
[*]click ok
[*]In the notepad, Click “Format” and be certain that Word Wrap is not checked.

[*]Copy and paste all the text in the code box below into the Notepad. Do Not copy the word CODE
Do Not copy the word CODE

KillAll::

File::
c:\windows\system32\audiosr.dll

Rootkit::
c:\windows\system32\drivers\ldecydkl.sys 

Driver::

In the notepad
[*]Click File, Save as…, and set the Save in to your Desktop
[*]In the filename box, type (including quotation marks) as the filename: “CFScript.txt”
[*]Click save

Using your mouse left button, drag the new file CFscript.txt and drop it on the ComboFix.exe icon as shown below.

This will start ComboFix again.Close all browser/windows first.

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

Okay so I have been trying to run combofix. The first time it gets to the part where it says it is scanning for infected files. It was stuck there for over a half an hour. So I rebooted thinking that I accidently clicked on the screen and locked it up. Now on the second try it is locked up on the same part and it has been there for over an hour and I have not even been close to my mouse or keyboard to click on anything. I have to go to work for a couple of hours I am going to leave it running and check back here when I get home. Thanks for all the help.

Hi braz,

I think oldman will give you the advice to rename Combofix into C_o_m_b_o_f_i_x or such, but I think he will tell you that himself,

polonus

Hi Braz,

Nice of you to drop in Polonus.

We’ll give this copy of combofix a shot. We will run it by dragging the CFScript on it. We’ll change the script a little, so use this one.

Please delete the copy of combofix you have from your desktop first.

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.

[*]Double click on ComboFix.exe & follow the prompts.

Please post the log and a new HJT log. If this doesn’t work we have other tools.

Thanks

It is still locking up in the same spot.

Ok, we use a bigger stick. If this doesn’t work, we do it the old fashion way.

Note: make sure you copy ALL the text.

  1. Please download The Avenger2 by Swandog46 to your Desktop.
    [*]Right click on the Avenger.zip folder and select “Extract All…”
    [*] Follow the prompts and extract the avenger folder to your desktop
  2. Copy all the text contained in the code box below to your Clipboard by highlighting it and pressing (Ctrl+C):

Drivers to delete:
ldecydkl

Files to delete:
c:\windows\system32\drivers\ldecydkl.sys 
c:\windows\system32\audiosr.dll

Registry keys to delete:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\Browser Helper Objects\{89E3F184-32DA-426F-A643-3A42F83C5CCC}


Note: the above code was created specifically for this user. If you are not this user, do NOT follow these directions as they could damage the workings of your system.

  1. Now, open the avenger folder and start The Avenger program by clicking on its icon.

Safe mode and Avenger2 might work the lock ups may be because of a guard file

Hi zone12,

Off course follow the instructions “oldman” gives and perform these meticulously.

  1. You maybe right there, it is also recommended in these cases to temporarily shut down
    real-time services of the resident AV-solution, while that will disable onAccess interference by the
    resident AV solution.

  2. Test deep scan by running in Safe Mode

  3. Disable archive scanning

I believe a rootkit that Cf is able to deal with is at the root of the problem.

Hi Braz,

That seemed to do the trick. One more scan just to be sure.

First though, you need to update your java

You have some old vulnerable versions of java on your computer. You may want to copy and paste the instructions for this tool into a notepad and save to your desktop for reference as your browser should be closed.

Please download JavaRa to your desktop and unzip it to its own folder. Close your browser.

[*]Run JavaRa.exe, pick the language of your choice and click Select. Then click Remove Older Versions.
[*]Accept any prompts.
[*]Open JavaRa.exe again and select Search For Updates.
[*]Select Update Using Sun Java’s Website then click Search and click on the Open Webpage button. Download and install the latest Java Runtime Environment (JRE) version for your computer.
The current version is Java™ 6 Update 12

You will need to use Internet Explorer for this scan.
*Note
It is recommended to disable onboard antivirus program and antispyware programs while performing scans so there are no conflicts and it will speed up scan time.
Please don’t go surfing while your resident protection is disabled!
Once the scan is finished remember to re-enable your antivirus along with your antispyware programs.

Please go to Kaspersky website and perform an online antivirus scan.

[*]Read through the requirements and privacy statement and click on Accept button.
[*]It will start downloading and installing the scanner and virus definitions.
[*]You will be prompted to install an application from Kaspersky. Click Run.
[*]When the downloads have finished, click on Settings.
[*]Make sure these boxes are checked (ticked). If they are not, please tick them and click on the Save button

[*]Spyware, Adware, Dialers, and other potentially dangerous programs
[*]Archives
[*]Mail databases

[*]Click on My Computerr under Scan.
[*]Once the scan is complete, it will display the results. Click on View Scan Report.
[*]You will see a list of infected items there. Click on Save Report As…
[*]Save this report to a convenient place. Desktop is a good place.
[*]Change the Files of type to Text file (.txt) before clicking on the Save button.
[*]Please post this log in your next reply along with a new HijackThis log.

Thanks

Hi Braz,

At least one infection has been identified as having backdoor capabilities. This may include remote access to your computer.

I suggest you do the following immediately:

[*] From a clean computer, change all your online passwords – for email, for banks, financial accounts, PayPal, eBay, online companies, any online forums or groups you belong to.
[*] DO NOT change passwords or do any transactions while using the infected computer because the attacker will get the new passwords and transaction information.

.
Now for a silly question, where is your antivirus program??

Please download the OTMoveIt3 by OldTimer.

[*] Save it to your desktop.
[*] Please double-click OTMoveIt3.exe to run it.
[*]Copy the lines in the codebox below to the clipboard by highlighting ALL of them and pressing CTRL + C (or, after highlighting, right-click and choose Copy):

Do Not copy the word CODE note the fix starts with the :

:Processes
explorer.exe

:Services

:Reg

:Files
C:\WINDOWS\update.3470.exe

:Commands
[Purity]
[emptytemp]
[start explorer]
[Reboot]

[*] Return to OTMoveIt3, right click in the “Paste Instructions for Items to be Moved” window (under the yellow bar) and choose Paste.

[*]Click the red Moveit! button.
[*]Copy everything in the Results window (under the green bar) to the clipboard by highlighting ALL of them and pressing CTRL + C (or, after highlighting, right-click and choose copy), and paste it in your next reply.
[*]Close OTMoveIt3

Note: 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. In this case, after the reboot, open Notepad (Start->All Programs->Accessories->Notepad), click File->Open, in the File Name box enter *.log and press the Enter key, navigate to the C:_OTMoveIt\MovedFiles folder, and open the newest .log file present, and copy/paste the contents of that document back here in your next post.

Please post back with

  • OTMOVEIT3 log
  • new HJT log]

After you post back we’ll clean up the tools we used.

Thanks

sorry about the anti-virus. Was using AVG but couldn’t get it to disable to do everything you have been having me do so I just removed it for now. I will reinstall once we are all done. I went through and changed all the passwords that I could remember. I will change any others that I remember at a later date. When you look at the OT log you will notice that the file was not found because as soon as I saw that backdoor I erased the file. Anyways here are the logs.

Hi Braz,

No problem, OTMOVEIT3 would have gotten it.

Let’s clean up the tools, then you can get your antivirus program installed.

.
From your desktop delete
[*]any notepads/logs that were created

.
Click the Start button, click Run. Copy and paste the following line into the run box and click OK

Combofix /u

.
Open OTMoveIt3 then click the Clean Up button. You may get prompted by your firewall that OTMoveIt wants to contact the internet - allow this. A cleanup.txt will be downloaded, a message dialog will ask you if you want to proceed with the cleanup process, click Yes. This will do some clean up tasks and delete some of the tools you have downloaded plus itself.

.
Install your anti virus program and procede.

.
Some Recommendations and prevention tips

Basic security consists of 1 antivirus program, 1 resident antispyware program, 1 on demand antispyware program and a firewall. You have an antvirus program.

For an antispyware program with resident (real time) scanning, I suggest

Winpatrol
OR
Windows Defender

.
For on demand scanning I recommend Malwarebytes Anti-Malware

.
You should also use Spyware Blaster to help immunize your computer.

  • SpywareBlaster will add a large list of programs and sites into your Internet Explorer
    settings that will protect you from running and downloading known malicious programs.

OR

A guide to understanding and using the hosts file.

Learn how your Hosts file can protect you and how you can protect it.
Besides the Hosts file information, there are links to a very good updated hosts file, a host file manager. and some programs that can protect your hosts file.
HOSTS

Please read the info on disabling the DNS Client before installing a custom hosts file.

  • If you are behind a router Windows firewall should be fine. Otherwise a 3rd party firewall with outbound monitoring is recommended.

Click FIREWALL for tips, reviews and links to good, free and paid for firewalls. (Note: Zone Alarm is becoming bloatware)

-Secure your Internet Explorer

From within Internet Explorer click on the Tools menu and then click on Options.
[]Click once on the Security tab
[]Click once on the Internet icon so it becomes highlighted.
[*]Click once on the Custom Level button.

[*]Change the Download signed ActiveX controls to Prompt
[*]Change the Download unsigned ActiveX controls to Disable
[*]Change the Initialize and script ActiveX controls not marked as safe to Disable
[*]Change the Installation of desktop items to Prompt
[*]Change the Launching programs and files in an IFRAME to Prompt
[*]Change the Navigate sub-frames across different domains to Prompt
[*]When all these settings have been made, click on the OK button.
[*]If it prompts you as to whether or not you want to save the settings, press the Yes button.
Next press the Apply button and then the OK to exit the Internet Properties page.

  • Ensure that Automatic Update is turned on so you get all the latest patches.
    Click start, control panel, click Security Center.

  • Keep your antivirus program updated, as well as any other security programs you have.
