Hello:
It’s hard to wrap my 70 year-old brain around this stuff but I’ve read
Polonus’ “what to do” list and here goes:
My son was using the computer (secondary user “Segundo”), told
me he got a virus alert and moved it to the virus chest.
Yesterday I took a look; when I logged on to his user account, I got two error
messages:
“Run DLL Error loading: C:\Users\Segundo\AppData\Loca\Temp\geBurpMC.dll
Access is denied.”
“Run DLL Error loading:
C:\Users\Segundo…\Temp\jkexjaic.dll Access is denied.”
(I don’t get any error messages when I log on to my user account.)
I clicked OK on each of those messages and opened avast!. During the “Test
of Memory and Startup”, I got four more virus alerts. I put them all in
the virus chest. At the end of the Memory Test there was a brief message
about scheduling a 'boot start-up or scan" (?) or something like that; it
went by quickly. Then a message…'start (or schedule?) boot scan"…I
clicked on that and got a message, something like "unable to do boot
‘whatever’ ", so I went offline.
Here is what I find in Virus Chest:
A number of old infections from Jan/Feb 2008: JS FEEBS family, and JS
ADODB-V
Those files are:
6b27 (Feebs)
_0000_1 (ADODB-V)
adult-toons.org[1] (Feebs)
cb74 (Feebs)
d972 ADODB-V
extrime-list_com[1] (Feebs)
MEMORY.DMP (2/22/2008) Win32: VD-EIW
picshunter_info[1].h ADODB-V
Recent (current) infected files: the last four came up as virus alerts
while avast! was testing memory:
5/15/08 geburpmc.dll Win32:Vundo
5/15/08 jkexjaic.dll Win32:Vundo
5/20/08 ddcAsrQI.dll Win32:Vundo
5/20/08 fccawuVO.dll Win32:Vundo
5/20/08 opnkLLKA.dll Win32:Vundo
5/20/08 xxyaxxXQ.dll Win32:Vundo
While I was online typing out this list, I got another virus alert.
I put it in the chest and went offline. Looking in the chest, I didn’t
find a new entry related to that alert.
Performing item 6 on Polonus’ list, re-scanning those files, I got two
more alerts, which I put in the virus chest. These are:
“C:\Users\Segundo\AppData\Local\Temp…\vbksrofa.dll Infection:
Win32A… File was successfully moved to chest.” …and
“C:Users.…same as above… …\fvowketqonp.dll Infection: Win32V
Error occurred during moving file to chest.”
I looked around my avast! program and didn’t find a Virus Cleaner tool.
Since I was getting virus alerts online, I DID NOT GO BACK ONLINE to do an
online scan or jotti.
I thought maybe what I’ve written so far is enough to get some help to get
me started on this problem.
To complicate things, for the next week I will be at a house where there is
a business network which I can’t log on to. I will be using a computer on
that network to communicate with this forum; when I need to go online with
this computer which I’m having the problem with, I will have to go to the
public WiFi spot at the local library.
This has me feeling a bit on overload. Needless to say, any and all assistance and suggestions will be greatly appreciated!!
