Multitude of Trojans
Hi all. Thanks in advance for any and all help with this. A couple of months ago my daughter said those famous words "Dad, something’s wrong with the computer!” What I found was a none stop stream of pop-ups that made it virtually impossible to do anything on the system, even after reboot. I disconnected the computer from the net, booted in Safe-Mode, and ran Ad-Aware and Spybot. Among the items found was Network Monitor, Cowabanga, InetGet2, Smitfraud-C.Core Service, Smitfraud-C.Toolbar888, Sporder, and lots of suspicious logs and dlls. The hard drive was full (80 GB). Reading through the forums I have learned that Spybot and Ad-Aware may have removed the components of these, but they are probably still in the registry and need further removal tools.
I finally have installed a larger second hard drive (500 GB) to backup personal files (pics, files, music, etc.). I have used a different computer to download the latest updates from Spybot and Ad-Aware, transferred them over, and re-ran the scans in Safe-Mode. Some items were found again. I would like to make sure that all is well prior to reconnecting the computer to the internet, so I am posting here for help (thanks again!).
I ran HijackThis v1.97.7 twice, once before the updates for Spybot/Ad-Aware, and once after. I read the "Before you post" forum and realized I have an older version (even though I have 1.99.1, somehow I ran the older one), so I also re-ran it with v1.99.1 in Safe-Mode. I will list the outputs in separate posts. Sorry for the long post, but I wanted to make sure I gave you all the details.
Thanks again for the help. Here we go....
Here's the first HijackThis v.1.97.7 log:

hi SBDad,
that last hjt log looks ok. i only question one item, this .dll:
CTInDAL.dll
located in the system32 dir:
C:\WINDOWS\system32
-----------------------
we can get it checked out. you might have to do this first to show all files:
1. Right click on Start > Explore > Tools > Folder Options > View.
2. Under "Files and Folders" check the radio buttons for:
3. "Show hidden files and folders", and
4. uncheck "Hide extensions for known file types", and
5. uncheck "Hide protected operating system files (recommended)" > click "Yes" to the pop-up window > and then click "OK."
---------------------
navigate to the system32 dir and see if you can find:
CTInDAL.dll
once you locate it you can go to this website:
http://www.virustotal.com/
using the browse button locate the .dll again, double click it, then click send file button it will be uploaded and scanned. you can copy/paste the results into notepad, save them then post the results back here.
if that site is busy, you can try this web site also:
http://virusscan.jotti.org/
also you could go here:
http://www.norman.com/microsites/nsic/Submit/en-us
use my email:
echoreply(at)hotmail.com
browse and upload the file.

Hi shelf life. Thanks for the reply and help. The computer that is/was infected is currently disconnected from the internet. Would it be ok to copy the CTInDAL.dll file to a flash drive and use a different computer to perform the requested tasks, or would that put that computer at risk of infection as well?
Thanks again for the help!

hi SBDad,
if it was any other .dll i would say go ahead and copy it to a computer that has a internet connection, but since this is a winlogon dll which incorporates itself into windows winlogon process, better forget moving it to another computer. just to be safe anyway.
i cant find any reference to it, and to boot its a BHO-- so i say we get rid of it. we can use hjt:
scan with HJT, put a checkmark beside the items below, close all windows and click fix checked.
R3 - Default URLSearchHook is missing
O2 - BHO: (no name) - {011b2e14-4947-495d-8832-132752cc6f34} - C:\WINDOWS\system32\CTInDAL.dll
---------------------------
restart hjt and this time click on "open misc tools section"
then "delete a file on reboot"
copy/paste in the File Name window: C:\WINDOWS\system32\CTInDAL.dll
click open, at the prompt to reboot select yes. after the reboot rescan and post a new hjt log.

Hi shelf life. Thanks again for the help. I was trying to learn what items you were looking for in the hjt log (http://www.spywareinfo.com/~merijn/htlogtutorial.php; just curious, I'll still asked you and the rest of the experts for help :-) to see if I could learn what the items are and I see that the .dll shows up a couple of times in the log:
O2 - BHO: (no name) - {011b2e14-4947-495d-8832-132752cc6f34} - C:\WINDOWS\system32\CTInDAL.dll
O9 - Extra button: (no name) - {08B0E5C0-4FCB-11CF-AAA5-00401C608501} - C:\WINDOWS\system32\CTInDAL.dll
O9 - Extra 'Tools' menuitem: Sun Java Console - {08B0E5C0-4FCB-11CF-AAA5-00401C608501} - C:\WINDOWS\system32\CTInDAL.dll
O20 - Winlogon Notify: CTInDAL - C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM32\CTInDAL.dll
Should I fix the other line items as well?
Also, should I fix the R3 object too?
Thanks again for the help shelf life and have a great day!
Hi shelf life. For some reason I'm not allowed to edit my posts, so I could fix my previous post. I re-read your post and missed the R3 comment and wanted to delete my question on it (and remove the ; from the end of the Merijn link). Sorry. Thanks again for the help!!
