View Full Version : Fakemsn8Beta - Big Problem



THESPR
2007-07-14, 19:08
Hello,

My son seems to have obtained the fakemsn8beta infection from windows live messenger.

I was running a weekly spybot and it was shown, along with a windows security disabled notice and a redirect notice.

I "fixed" the problems and immunized the system, but it keeps showing up.

I noticed that it would not let me run a registry fix program, and it also won't let me visit any sites that might offer removal softaware. It shuts the IE down or redirects to 1.1.1.1 .

I could download hijack this, but it will not let it run. It will not let me update any other antivirus info ( Norton) and both the NOrton online scan and one of the on-line scans discussed elsewhere in the forums both did not return any infections.

I also read somewhere about another file msnvirr or similare, but when I try to download this it will not allow it.

Everything I have read says to run the hijack this to create a report, but I can not do this.

I have noted that a lot of information I have read about this problem fakemsn8beta seems to be older, 2006 so I wondered if there was a new round of the problem or if there is an easier fix currently.

I do not know what the program does other than stop me from updating security and lowering my security features, but that in an of itself is enough to bother me.

I tried to read other FAQ's before posting, but none seem to apply to a case where you can not run HJT or MSNVIRr

Thanks

Hi THESPR

Download HostsXpert (http://www.funkytoad.com/download/HostsXpert.zip) and unzip it to your desktop.

Open HostsXpert that you earlier unzipped on your desktop

Click "Make Hosts Writable?" upper right corner (if available)
Click "Restore Microsoft's Original Hosts File" and then click OK
Close HostsXpert
Note; IF you used any custom Hosts (eg. MVPS Hosts), you will have put them back manually

After that:

Boot in safe mode and let me know if you can run HijackThis there.

If so, post HijackThis log here, please :)

Hello Shaba

I read your post and did what you ad indicated.

I ran the hostexpert, I noted that there was a toggle that said make hosts writable and made hosts readable. SO I got it so it said make hosts writable, then clicked it. This then said make hosts readable? So I don't know if this accomplished what you hoped.

After that I was able to run the HJT program and got a log which I have attached.

This fakebeta things is smart. It redirects me away from pages that might help me fix the problem and now it has sut down my windows documents when I have located the log in the hijack this folder!!

Here is the log. I will try to do this in safe mode as it will not allow me to upload the hijack this log.

Please advise.

Hi

I see no log?

If no success, we can try some other programs than HijackThis :)

Hello Shaba,

Trying again. This time I shut down, ran Hijack this again, and saved to a different location, so hopefully, the file is attached.

Thanks

Shaba,

I have do as instructed. I did the scan, fixed the checked items, rebooted, deleted the aapopfefaa folder and ran a new hijack this.

Note, I was able to run the hijack this is regular mode ( not safe mode) for the first time, so we must be getting somewhere.

Here is the newest hijack log.

Thanks

Here is the new Hijack file.

If this fixes things, how do I keep from getting this one again ?

Hi

"If this fixes things, how do I keep from getting this one again ?"

I give you later instructions for that :)

In the future please don't attach HjT log but copy/paste contents of hijackthis.log to thread :)

Download SDFix (http://downloads.andymanchesta.com/RemovalTools/SDFix.exe) and save it to your Desktop.

Double click SDFix.exe and it will extract the files to %systemdrive%
(Drive that contains the Windows Directory, typically C:\SDFix)

Please then reboot your computer in Safe Mode by doing the following :
Restart your computer
After hearing your computer beep once during startup, but before the Windows icon appears, tap the F8 key continually;
Instead of Windows loading as normal, the Advanced Options Menu should appear;
Select the first option, to run Windows in Safe Mode, then press Enter.
Choose your usual account.

Open the extracted SDFix folder and double click RunThis.bat to start the script.
Type Y to begin the cleanup process.
It will remove any Trojan Services and Registry Entries that it finds then prompt you to press any key to Reboot.
Press any Key and it will restart the PC.
When the PC restarts the Fixtool will run again and complete the removal process then display Finished, press any key to end the script and load your desktop icons.
Once the desktop icons load the SDFix report will open on screen and also save into the SDFix folder as Report.txt
(Report.txt will also be copied to Clipboard ready for posting back on the forum).
Finally paste the contents of the Report.txt back on the forum with a new HijackThis log

Hi

No problem :)

Please make sure that you can view all hidden files. Instructions on how to do this can be found here:

How to see hidden files in Windows (http://www.xtra.co.nz/help/0,,4155-1916458,00.html)

Please click this link-->Jotti (http://virusscan.jotti.org/)

When the jotti page has finished loading, click the Browse button and navigate to the following file and click Submit.

C:\WINDOWS\system32\QVJGTGljZW5zZUluZm8=\QVJGTGljZW5zZUluZm8=.dlle

Please post back the results of the scan in your next post.

If Jotti is busy, try the same at Virustotal: http://www.virustotal.com/flash/index_en.html

Hey Shaba,

Just checking to see if there is anything more to do.

I noted that my thread said the last update was from you, but it was actually mine from yesterday, so I don't konw if you were looking to see if I did what you had instructed.

Steve

Hi

Please do an online scan with Kaspersky Online Scanner (http://www.kaspersky.com/downloads/kws/kavwebscan.html). You will be prompted to install an ActiveX component from Kaspersky, Click Yes.
The program will launch and then start to download the latest definition files.
Once the scanner is installed and the definitions downloaded, click Next.
Now click on Scan Settings
In the scan settings make sure that the following are selected:

o Scan using the following Anti-Virus database:

+ Extended (If available otherwise Standard)

o Scan Options:

+ Scan Archives
+ Scan Mail Bases

Click OK
Now under select a target to scan select My Computer
The scan will take a while so be patient and let it run. Once the scan is complete it will display if your system has been infected.
Now click on the Save as Text button
Save the file to your desktop.
Copy and paste that information in your next post.

Note for Internet Explorer 7 users: If at any time you have trouble with the accept button of the licence, click on the Zoom tool located at the right bottom of the IE window and set the zoom to 75 %. Once the license accepted, reset to 100%.

Hi

That looks good :)

Still problems?

Shaba,

Everything seems to be back to normal. I can run the programs and updates for antivirus etc and visit any page. I am no longer finding fakemsn in my SPybot S & D and my browser is no longer being redirected.

Looks like the problem is solved, thank you very much.

I am not sure how we got the thing, other than through my son's msn page and something that was sent via that.

We have norton antivirus, but it did not find this. Should he scan anything he gets ?

Other than taping his hands to his ears, I don't know how to stop the msn action, so the next best thing is to set some rules.

Thanks

Steve

Hi

"We have norton antivirus, but it did not find this. Should he scan anything he gets ?"

Yes and also make him think which link to click and which download to accept :)

Then you're clean!

Now that you are clean, please follow these simple steps in order to keep your computer clean and secure:

Disable and Enable System Restore. - If you are using Windows ME or XP then you should disable and re-enable system restore to make sure there are no infected files found in a restore point.

You can find instructions on how to enable and reenable system restore here:

Windows XP System Restore Guide (http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/forums/tutorial56.html)

Reenable system restore with instructions from tutorial above

Make your Internet Explorer more secure - This can be done by following these simple instructions:
From within Internet Explorer click on the Tools menu and then click on Options.
Click once on the Security tab
Click once on the Internet icon so it becomes highlighted.
Click once on the Custom Level button.
Change the Download signed ActiveX controls to Prompt

Change the Download unsigned ActiveX controls to Disable

Change the Initialize and script ActiveX controls not marked as safe to Disable

Change the Installation of desktop items to Prompt

Change the Launching programs and files in an IFRAME to Prompt

Change the Navigate sub-frames across different domains to Prompt

When all these settings have been made, click on the OK button.

If it prompts you as to whether or not you want to save the settings, press the Yes button.
Next press the Apply button and then the OK to exit the Internet Properties page.
Use an AntiVirus Software - It is very important that your computer has an anti-virus software running on your machine. This alone can save you a lot of trouble with malware in the future.

See this link for a listing of some online & their stand-alone antivirus programs:

Virus, Spyware, and Malware Protection and Removal Resources (http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/forums/topic405.html)


Update your AntiVirus Software - It is imperitive that you update your Antivirus software at least once a week (Even more if you wish). If you do not update your antivirus software then it will not be able to catch any of the new variants that may come out.


Use a Firewall - I can not stress how important it is that you use a Firewall on your computer. Without a firewall your computer is succeptible to being hacked and taken over. I am very serious about this and see it happen almost every day with my clients. Simply using a Firewall in its default configuration can lower your risk greatly.

For a tutorial on Firewalls and a listing of some available ones see the link below:

Understanding and Using Firewalls (http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/tutorials/tutorial60.html)


Visit Microsoft's Windows Update Site Frequently - It is important that you visit http://www.windowsupdate.com (http://www.windowsupdate.com) regularly. This will ensure your computer has always the latest security updates available installed on your computer. If there are new updates to install, install them immediately, reboot your computer, and revisit the site until there are no more critical updates.


Install Ad-Aware - Install and download Ad-Aware. ou should also scan your computer with program on a regular basis just as you would an antivirus software in conjunction with Spybot.

A tutorial on installing & using this product can be found here:

Using Ad-aware to remove Spyware, Malware, & Hijackers from Your Computer (http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/forums/?showtutorial=48)

Install SpywareBlaster - SpywareBlaster will added a large list of programs and sites into your Internet Explorer settings that will protect you from running and downloading known malicious programs.

A tutorial on installing & using this product can be found here:

Using SpywareBlaster to protect your computer from Spyware and Malware (http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/tutorials/tutorial49.html)


Update all these programs regularly - Make sure you update all the programs I have listed regularly. Without regular updates you WILL NOT be protected when new malicious programs are released.
Follow this list and your potential for being infected again will reduce dramatically.

Here are some additional utilities that will enhance your safety

IE/Spyad (http://www.spywarewarrior.com/uiuc/resource.htm) <= IE/Spyad places over 4000 websites and domains in the IE Restricted list which will severely impair attempts to infect your system. It basically prevents any downloads (Cookies etc) from the sites listed, although you will still be able to connect to the sites.
MVPS Hosts file (http://mvps.org/winhelp2002/hosts.htm) <= The MVPS Hosts file replaces your current HOSTS file with one containing well know ad sites etc. Basically, this prevents your coputer from connecting to those sites by redirecting them to 127.0.0.1 which is your local computer
Comodo BOCLEAN (http://www.comodo.com/boclean/boclean.html) <= Stop identity thieves from getting personal information. Instantly detects well over 1,000,000 unique, variant and repack malware in total. And it's free.
Winpatrol (http://www.winpatrol.com/) <= Download and install the free version of Winpatrol. a tutorial for this product is located here:
Using Winpatrol to protect your computer from malicious software (http://www.winpatrol.com/features.html)

Stand Up and Be Counted ---> Malware Complaints (http://www.malwarecomplaints.info/index.php) <--- where you can make difference!

The site offers people who have been (or are) victims of malware the opportunity to document their story and, in that way, launch a complaint against the malware and the makers of the malware.

Also, please read this great article by Tony Klein So How Did I Get Infected In First Place (http://castlecops.com/postlite7736-.html)

Happy surfing and stay clean!
