    Default reported Win32/Agent.NEO variant but can not remove

    Hi All,

    I have been pulling my hair trying to get rid of this virus for the last 3 wks, be appreciated if someone can help. FYI, I am an experience users and have tools such as ERD, Haren 8, etc..at my disposable but never come across any challenging virus till now.

    NOD32 2.7.x reported this during post-startup, seems to occur randomly ....applications that were used are Avant browser, firefox, Windows Media Player, Skype and occassionally MS Word. Unfortunately, NOD32 did not seems to be able to rid of this trojan, just reported and killed it.

    Time Module Object Name Threat Action User Information
    1/05/2007 14:37:21 PM Kernel file c:\windows\system32\5e7b71fc.exe probably a variant of Win32/Agent.NEO trojan
    1/05/2007 14:37:19 PM Kernel file c:\windows\system32\4f87538c.exe probably a variant of Win32/Agent.NEO trojan

    These .exe files seems to come & go. Appeared to have created and started from some programs, possibly infected systems file or program.

    I tried online scan as per instruction before posting, and run Spybot - Search & Destroy. But only tracking cookies was reported.

    I had removed these .exe files, via clean boot from Haren CD. But it kept coming back.

    This is the log I have:

    Hello and welcome to the Forums

    1. Download this file - combofix.exe
    2. Double click combofix.exe & follow the prompts.
    3. When finished, it shall produce a log for you. Post that log in your next reply

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

    Thanks for the reply Mr_JAk3.

    Just to let you know that I found these files in the windows/systems32, there are the infected files (if I am not wrong):
    4F87538C.VDLL
    4F87538C.VEXE
    4F87538CT.VEXE
    5E7B71FC.VDLL
    5E7B71FC.VEXE
    5E7B71FCT.VEXE
    60E3A814.Vexe
    AC2B1A24.Vexe

    It seems like one of the antivirus programs must have tag them to *.v*. I did scanned with portable NOD32 2.7.x and Kasperky.

    Here is the output from the combofix.exe.
