Yet another win32:tratBHO{Trj}

system · 2008-02-11T11:47:29.000Z

I’ve read the other posts regarding this one but I’m a bit of a novice at all this and think I need someone to hold my hand. It seems I need to do a Hijack this scan followed by Combofix. In other posts people have been advices to check certain lines in the Hijack this scan and then to run “Fix”. I don’t seem to have those lines though. Thought I’d just post the log from Hijack this for now and wait for advice.

Thanks in advance for any help.

anybody to confirm?

system · 2008-02-11T13:11:03.000Z

If it’s any help the symptoms are that Avast pops up exactly every 60 mins with the virus warning. Each time it’s a dll file in my system32 folder. I either move it to the vault or delete it. Seems to make no difference as exactly 60 mins later it seems another dll file has been generated with the virus. I have a feeling it’s connected with some dll files in my system32 folder as follows:

rqrsrpn.dll, rqronmj.dll and ssqrsrs.dll

I only suspect these as they have a date and time about the time I started getting the virus warnings. I was tempted to just delete or rename them but I wasn’t sure this was the best thing to do. I have scanned it with Avast but it didn’t show anything.

I’m also not sure about the following one either …

C:\WINDOWS\system32\nGpxx01\nGpxx011065.exe

Hi

Run combofix first then HJT. Post both logs.

You can attach them by using the additional options button on the reply page.

system · 2008-02-11T15:02:02.000Z

Thanks Oldman.

Logs attached.

After running Combofix and rebooting Spybot popped up saying it had detected some registry changes. I assume this was down to Combofix so I allowed them. Hope that was right.

John

system · 2008-02-11T16:55:11.000Z

Just to add that Avast has stopped popping up with virus warnings every hour so that’s looking promising.

oldman960 · 2008-02-11T17:03:00.000Z

It looks like some, but not all has been removed. If you can live with it til this afternoon, I’ll be home then and we can get the rest.

system · 2008-02-11T17:54:25.000Z

Hi !

I still cant remove the virus…

Please e-mail to bskude@yahoo.com with tips on how to remove it. I am currently using avast home version 4.7 and this software cannot remove the virus

Thank you in advance !

bskude -

Please start your own post on your problem as Nodge is being helped in this thread. You will get better help if you do. Welcome to the forums.

system · 2008-02-11T18:23:50.000Z

Oldman. many thanks for your help so far. Not sure if I did right or not but I ran another virus scan with Avast and it did pick up some more viruses which I moved to the chest. Not sure how I post a log from Avast so I did a screen grab of the results and I’m attaching that.

Thanks

John

oldman960 · 2008-02-12T05:53:02.000Z

Sorry for the delay.

the avast detections where infected system restore oint. The restore point shouldn’t be a problem unless you use them. We’ll clean then put in a bit.

Open Spybot and make sure teatimer is disabled, we will re-enable afterwards. To do so do the following

Click mode
click Advanced mode
if you get a warning answer “yes”
click tools
click resident
uncheck resident “teatimer” and SDHelper if installed
click allow change
reboot
Download and Unzip to your Desktop: http://www.techsupportforum.com/sectools/ResetTeaTimer.zip
Double click ResetTeaTimer.bat to remove all entries set by TeaTimer.

reboot

Please submit these files for analysis

To submit a file to virustotal, please click on this link

www.virustotal.com

copy and paste the following into the upload a file box (one at a time if more than one file is listed)

C:\WINDOWS\b116old.exe
C:\WINDOWS\b122old.exe
C:\os350142.bin

scroll down a bit and click “send file”, wait for the results and post then in your next reply.

Open HJT, run a system scan only, check mark these lines if present

Close all other browsers/windows, click fix, close HJT.

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.

Thanks for your help with all this Oldman.

I’m attaching the various logs.

oldman960 · 2008-02-13T13:42:37.000Z

Just 2 more to get rid of, then we do some clean up.

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.

Files:: C:\WINDOWS\b116old.exe C:\WINDOWS\b122old.exe

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

system · 2008-02-13T20:04:44.000Z

OK, done that.

Didn’t know what you meant by “note[\b] when doing the combofix fix”

Here’s the Combofix log attached.

Thanks again,

oldman960 · 2008-02-14T03:06:21.000Z

Hi
The part of the post you asked about, it’s part of my copy/pasted canned version of the comboscript fix that didn’t apply in this case. Must have missed it when I removed that part.

Well, it looks like we may have to hammer those two.

Any other problems?

All system restore points are deleted.

Now you should manually create a restore point.

1.Click Start, click All Programs, click Accessories, click System Tools, and then click System Restore.

2.Click Create a Restore Point, and then click Next.
