View Full Version : vcodec and more
I cannot seem to get rid of vcodec even after running spybot at startup. Two others seem to be present as well: Windows Security Center.AntivirusDisableNotify and Windows Security Center.FirewallDisable Notify.
Can anyone help?

Thanks to noahdfear and any others who helped with this fix.
Download smitRem.exe (http://noahdfear.geekstogo.com/click%20counter/click.php?id=1)©noahdfear and save the file to your desktop.
Double click on the file to extract it to it's own folder on the desktop.

Please download the trial version of Ewido Security Suite here:

Please read Ewido Setup Instructions (http://rstones12.geekstogo.com/ewidosetup.htm)
Install it, and update the definitions to the newest files. Do NOT run a scan yet.
If you have not already installed Ad-Aware SE 1.06, follow these download and setup instructions, otherwise, check for updates:
Ad-Aware SE Setup (http://rstones12.geekstogo.com/adawareSE_setup.htm)

Close HiJackThis.
Open the smitRem folder, then double click the RunThis.bat file to start the tool. Follow the prompts on screen.
Wait for the tool to complete and disk cleanup to finish.
The tool will create a log named smitfiles.txt in the root of your drive, eg; Local Disk C: or partition where your operating system is installed. Please post that log along with all others requested in your next reply.
Open Ad-aware and do a full scan. Remove all it finds.
Run Ewido:
Click on scanner
Click on Complete System Scan and the scan will begin.
NOTE: During some scans with ewido it is finding cases of false positives.
You will need to step through the process of cleaning files one-by-one.
If ewido detects a file you KNOW to be legitimate, select none as the action.
DO NOT select "Perform action on all infections"
If you are unsure of any entry found select none for now.
When the scan is finished, click the Save report button at the bottom of the screen.
Save the report to your desktop
Close Ewido
Next go to Control Panel click Display > Desktop > Customize Desktop > Web > Uncheck "Security Info" if present.
Reboot back into Windows and click the Panda ActiveScan shortcut.
- Once you are on the Panda site click the Scan your PC button
- A new window will open...click the Check Now button
- Enter your Country
- Enter your State/Province
- Enter your e-mail address and click send
- Select either Home User or Company
- Click the big Scan Now button
- If it wants to install an ActiveX component allow it
- It will start downloading the files it requires for the scan (Note: It may take a couple of minutes)
- When download is complete, click on Local Disks to start the scan
- When the scan completes, if anything malicious is detected, click the See Report button, then Save Report and save it to a convenient location.
Post the contents of the Panda scan report, along with a new HijackThis Log, the contents of smitfiles.txt and the Ewido Log by using Add Reply.
Let us know if any problems persist. We will have more to do.
Thanks...pskelley

Thank you so much for your help. This is such a great forum. I have learned a great deal just following some of the threads.
It seems as if all my symptoms have been resolved. All the new scans are clean. Panda scan did turn up a few items which look to be mostly cookies. Should I worry about these or just delete them?
Here are the new reports I have generated:

Hi Robert and you are very welcome. You are right, this is a great forum, I myself have learned much watching the different experts here work. Let's take a look but I can see noandfear has killed another trojan. ActiveScan used to delete the stuff, seems they now want to get paid to do it, but it is still a great tool to find the junk. Delete all of those cookies, here is some information to help control them:
http://www.mvps.org/winhelp2002/cookies.htm
http://www.microsoft.com/windows/ie/using/howto/privacy/config.mspx
The last two items: smitRem.exe is the tool you used, leave it for a few days then delete it. the infection changes so quick, hopefully you will not have another problem with it but if you do you would want a fresh download. The last item is in a Temp folder, you should delete everything in that folder (not the folder).
This cleaner: Download CCleaner from this link: http://www.ccleaner.com/ Review the instructions http://www.ccleaner.com/help/tour1.asp run with these instructions: Run CCleaner, Windows & Applications when you run the registry cleaner (Issues) you will be prompted to backup before you can remove stuff, make sure you do. Should do the job for you and locate any other junk that should be removed.

I'll comment on this log but it was run in safe mode. Would you post a last log run in normal mode for a final check, thanks.
Java needs an update, this is a security issues: C:\Program Files\Java\j2re1.4.2_03\bin\jusched.exe <<< your updater did not do it, you may want to check that. Start > Control Panel > Java > Updates.
This item is questionable: O16 - DPF: {DF780F87-FF2B-4DF8-92D0-73DB16A1543A} (PopCapLoader Object) - http://download.games.yahoo.com/game...ploader_v6.cab I suggest you use HJT to remove it.
Here is some great information from Tony Klein, Texruss, ChrisRLG and Grinler to help you stay clean and safe online:

After I get a look at a complete HJT log, use this information to make sure your System Restore files did not get infected with this junk:

If you are reading this information...thank a teacher,
If you are reading it in English...thank a soldier.
I've followed most of the links you've sent and tried to beef up my security as best as I can. The ccleaner seemed to have gotten rid of the cookies that were picked up by the pandascan. So far, I'm running smooth and symptom free. Here is the final HJT log run in normal mode:

Once again thanks for all the help. I did not remove the popcap loader object you mentioned because I am familiar with the program it is associated with (an online game at yahoo games). But if you still think it needs to go I will get rid of it. Also, I did update the Java as you recommended, but the entry does not seem to have changed. Should I update again?

Hi Robert, Your HJT log is clean of malware:bigthumb: This item:

see this: http://www.trendmicro.com/vinfo/grayware/ve_graywareDetails.asp?GNAME=ADW%5FPOP%2EA is considered adware (grayware) so expect a popup from it unless your blocker stops them and is optional.
Also, I did update the Java as you recommended, but the entry does not seem to have changed. Should I update again?This information indicates. you are updated: O2 - BHO: SSVHelper Class - {761497BB-D6F0-462C-B6EB-D4DAF1D92D43} - C:\Program Files\Java\jre1.5.0_06\bin\ssv.dll
Ewido is a great program but it does use some resources.
Once the trial is over you can update and use the scanner
for as long as you wish, but unless you purchase it you should turn it of
completely so it does not run unless you start it manually.
Thanks and safe surfing...Phil
As the problem appears to be resolved this topic will be archived.
If you need it re-opened please pm me or one of the forum mods.
Glad we could help. Thank you pskelley. :)
