win32:dropper-epi virus in winlogon.exe and explorer.exe

Hello…
I’d like to know if how can I completely delete win32:dropper-epi virus.
I was asked to scan antivirus but I really can’t delete winlogon.exe and explorer.exe
that were infected by this annoying virus.
Ran OLT and ComboFix.Please see attached files.
Whenever I open a program,Avasts antivirus warns me about the virus.
It does the same thing even after running combofix.
Thanks.
Jared

Run a boottime scan with avast.

We need to replace files

winlogon.exe
explorer.exe

Avast can not be disinfected

Thanks for the response Argus and Eddy!

Ran combofix as instructed.

Here’s the log.

Thanks,

Download the zip file from this link and extract it to C http://www.speedyshare.com/files/26377546/XP-sp3.zip

C:\explorer.exe
C:\winlogon.exe

Restart your computer and press button the F8

When menu appears you should choose Microsoft Windows XP.

Then menu will appear where you should choose Microsoft Windows Recovery Console.

Start the Recovery Console and you will be asked which installation you want to log. Type in 1 and confirm with Enter.

Similarly, you can be asked for password - type in it or just press Enter if you do not have password.

On display will appear the following:

C:\Windows>_

Next Type (all command / line confirm with Enter):

cd …

copy explorer.exe c:\windows\explorer.exe

will appear query: type in y

copy winlogon.exe c:\windows\system32\winlogon.exe

will appear query: Type the y

type in:

exit to restart the PC.

All of this will look like in the picture below (in the yellow boxes is what you knocking):

Thereafter Run Combofix
Then post the resultant log .

All of these bills right on paper to know what to knocking.

Thanks Argus. I’ll print this out,back up some of important files and do this on weekend.
I’ll let you know the results. Thanks again.

Hi Argus,
I have done what you instructed me to do,however I wasn’t able to replace winlogon.exe file it says"cannot find the file in the recovery console" I typed it correctly I also checked the files I downloaded from the link you provided and extracted in C drive: windows.exe and the other one is windows NT logon application or something,. Please see attached file. Thanks!

Please download and extract the files on root C http://www.speedyshare.com/files/26377546/XP-sp3.zip

Click OK at the warning (and take note of it, this is a VERY powerful tool!).
Click the Script tab and copy/paste the following text there:

DeleteFile:

Click Execute Now.
Your computer will need to reboot in order to replace the files.

When done, post me the report created by Blitzblank C:\blitzblank.txt

Hi Argus!
It scares me to death when I saw the bluescreen!-but it was just a notification :slight_smile:
Thanks a lot! I’m scanning my pc with avast now, hopefully the virus will be gone forever!
So far, I’m not seeing any pop up messages everytime I open a program! You’re a genius!
Kudos to you and your team!
Thanks,
Jared30

Here’s the log.thanks

01/25/2011

This is an old log.Run Combofix again and set me a new log.

It scares me to death when I saw the bluescreen!-but it was just a notification :-)

It also should happen when BB changed files.

here’s the new log.thanks.

The CF log seems clean and there is no traces of malware. Your PC is clean.

It is necessary to uninstall Combofix

Start >> Run

Combofix /Uninstall

Enter.

The recommendation that you install this program. [b]http://amf.mycity.rs/programs/mc/mcshield/[/b]
It will prevent infection by computer via USB flash drive, mobile phone or any memory card.
And not only will prevent infection, but will immediately clean Memory card or external HDD

Excellent program

got it. I’ve installed the mcshield.thanks again.
