Need a little help here

So, what do you think?

I think the thing i am most worried about is my C4D.

Also, I have been noticing lately that when I click on something on my desktop like ‘My computer’ Or anything else I get the ‘Window’s Explorer’ has recieved an error thing and it asks me to send a report. I usualy don’t. Then after that sometimes my computer becomes unresponsive.

FreewheelinFrank · 2007-08-16T17:46:31.000Z

Well, they all look like malware to me- no reason to repair them: leave them in the chest.

C4Dsetup.exe: if it’s a genuine file, do you have the original on CD or can you download it again?

If it’s a warez version, it looks like it’s infected, which isn’t really surprising.

As to the other problems, I’d recommend some more scans:

Look for and remove rootkits (hidden malware):

Panda Antirootkit
Blacklight
AVG Anti-Rootkit

Try a boot time scan with avast! again.

Try a scan with DrWeb CureIT!

Try the usual free adware/spyware scanners.

AVG Anti-Spyware Free (Requires Win2k/XP)
Ad-Aware Free
Spybot Search & Destroy
SUPERAntiSpyware Free
a-Squared Free

Download, install and update the programs. Disconnect from the internet (pull the plug) before running scans in Safe Mode if possible.

Always select the option to quarantine any malware found rather than delete it, then you will be able to restore files or registry entries wrongly identified as malware- a rare but not unknown event for any malware scanner.

If still having problems, post a HijackThis! log.

When you have finished, scan for out-of-date and insecure software using Secunia Software Inspector and update any vulnerable software: this will help to prevent future infections.

Thanks, I’ll work on it this afternoon and I’ll post again if I have problems.

edit How do I schedule boot time scans in Avast! The first one is does by itself.

FreewheelinFrank · 2007-08-16T18:07:20.000Z

Right click the scanner screen, select ‘schedule a boot time scan’ and reboot when requested.

Good luck!

DavidR · 2007-08-16T18:13:37.000Z

Right click the avast icon, select Start avast! Antivirus, Menu, ‘Schedule boot-time scan…’

Or see http://www.digitalred.com/avast-boot-time.php

system · 2007-08-17T00:24:50.000Z

OK guys, I ran all 3 of those anti-rootkit tools. Then I ran ad-ware again. Then I opened up avast! and scheduled the scan like you said.

The scan loads up and gives me this little error

Also, the windows explorer error i was getting before, this is what it looks like. I’m sure you have seen it plenty of times. I get it when I click on anything on my desktop other than shortcuts.

I’m not an expert on HijackThis… But you can check the automatic analysis of your HijackThis log here.

You can find more info in the links of the last column of this table.
That info could guide you on the cleaning process.
Anyway, if you have doubts, just post here.
Also, take a careful look at the first column of the table:

If you don’t recognize a legit program in one of the items marked as FIX IF UNKNOWN, please post it back here and maybe we can help you. Or, if you’re sure it’s a malware item, you can remove it as posted bellow.
If you agree with the automatic classification of the infected items marked as FIX (CHECK NOTES!), you can turn back to HijackThis program, check the box of this item and then remove it using the button ‘Fix checked’.

Hope it helps.

If you want to do it by yourself, click here to download HJTsetup.exe

[*]Save HJTsetup.exe to your desktop.
[*]Doubleclick on the HJTsetup.exe icon on your desktop.
[*]By default it will install to C:\Program Files\Hijack This.
[*]Continue to click Next in the setup dialogue boxes until you get to the Select Addition Tasks dialogue.
[*]Put a check by Create a desktop icon then click Next again.
[*]Continue to follow the rest of the prompts from there.
[*]At the final dialogue box click Finish and it will launch Hijack This.
[*]Click on the Do a system scan and save a logfile button. It will scan and the log should open in notepad.
[*]Click on “Edit > Select All” then click on “Edit > Copy” to copy the entire contents of the log.
[*]Come back here to this thread and Paste the log in your next reply.
[*]DO NOT have Hijack This fix anything yet. Most of what it finds will be harmless or even required.

Your log doesn’t seem to have a problem…
I suggest you Google the error number 0xC0000005.
For instance, http://icrontic.com/forum/showthread.php?t=50966 and http://www.updatexp.com/0xC0000005.html

Ok so we have it down to basicly 2 main errors now.

I can’t boot-scan with avast! (I get above blue scree)
Windows explorer crashes on me if I try to open anything on the desktop or if i try and open more than one window.

Windows explorer crashes on me if I try to open anything on the desktop or if i try and open more than one window.

I honestly don’t know what’s going on with those two problems, but there is a trojan in your HJT log we should fix.

Open HJT again and click to Do a System Scan Only. When the scan is complete place a check mark next to these lines

[b]R1 - HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer,SearchURL = http://searchmiracle. com/sp.php

O3 - Toolbar: (no name) - {E0E899AB-F487-11D5-8D29-0050BA6940E3} - (no file)[/b]

Now close all other windows, including your browser, and click Fix Checked.

After doing the above download ComboFix from Here or Here to your Desktop.

Double click combofix.exe and follow the prompts.

When finished, it shall produce a log for you. Post that log and a fresh HiJackthis log in your next reply

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

I would suggest running a memory check:

http://oca.microsoft.com/en/windiag.asp

Then a HD check:

Manual steps to run Chkdsk from My Computer or Windows Explorer 1. Double-click My Computer, and then right-click the hard disk that you want to check. 2. Click Properties, and then click Tools. 3. Under Error-checking, click Check Now. A dialog box that shows the Check disk options is displayed, 4. Use one of the following procedures: • To run Chkdsk in read-only mode, click Start. • To repair errors without scanning the volume for bad sectors, select the Automatically fix file system errors check box, and then click Start. • To repair errors, locate bad sectors, and recover readable information, select the Scan for and attempt recovery of bad sectors check box, and then click Start. Note If one or more of the files on the hard disk are open, you will receive the following message: The disk check could not be performed because the disk check utility needs exclusive access to some Windows files on the disk. These files can be accessed by restarting Windows. Do you want to schedule the disk check to occur the next time you restart the computer? Click Yes to schedule the disk check, and then restart your computer to start the disk check.

Tick both these boxes before running the scan:

If the memory test is clean and you still have the same problem after the HD check, come back and tell us.

(If the memory test indicates faulty memory, you’ll need to replace the faulty memory.)

There is a possibility that the 0xC0000005 error is caused by a hidden component of the SdBot worm, which was on your computer. I would’ve thought one of the anti-rootkit scanners would’ve remove that, but just to be sure, you can run the following removal tools to check:

The good news, my browser is running faster.

The bad news, I still get the pesky windows explorer problem. (Not sure about the boot-time scan yet, i’ll try that in a sec)

I ran the HDD check, and the memory check to pass 2 ie for about 10 minutes. Both inconclusive.

Should i leave the memory check on all night tonight?

Btw, I would include the error report that it wants to send to microsoft but you can’t select any of the text. However, it did say it was going to include a txt file, i searched for the txt file and this is what it’s called/says.

Name: 6d88_appcompat.txt

If Windows Memory Diagnostic completes the first pass and reports no errors, then your RAM is probably working correctly. It is unlikely that Windows Memory Diagnostic will find any errors with your RAM on subsequent passes using the same settings.

I’d say if the first pass was OK, it’s more likely to be a rootkit, or something else.

Have you tried the SdBot removal tools? Try a re-run with the anti-rootkit scanners using the in-depth setting where possible. Are they coming up clean?
