Hello good people of this forum,

I seem to be another victim of the Zlob bad guys. The Zlob DNS Changer shows up in my Spybot scans repeatedly, even after I have Spybot "remove" it. Following is my HijackThis scan.

Thanks in advance for your help.

When the tool is ready, it will create a log called files.txt save this document to your desktop.

Hi Markka,

This step scares me a little. Can you explain to me what exactly the results of it will be? I am afraid that I will be overwriting some important files. Specifically, what if I have installed a new version of the program in question since the creation of the "bak" folder?

Thanks,

cakes

Hello :)

We are moving good files out of bak folders, because those bak folders are bad.

cakes

2007-08-13, 22:06

Will we be overwriting the original file? For example, will C:\Program Files\QuickTime\bak\qttask.exe be overwritten with the one in the bak folder?

cakes

2007-08-13, 22:19

Just to clarify - with several of these programs, the version of the file in the bak folder is older than the version in the main folder, because I have installed a new version since (apparently) the bak was created. Will I be overwriting these newer versions by running FindAWF? If so, what should I do?

Thanks again for your help.

Hello :)

Go to Jotti's Malware Scan (http://virusscan.jotti.org/).
*Click on the "Browse"-button
*Find this file: C:\Program Files\QuickTime\qttask.exe
*Click on the "Submit"-button
*Copy/paste the results of Jotti's into a notepad.

Also send these files to Jotti's:

Hi Markka,

Well, I guess I'm a little impatient, because before I saw your last reply I decided to run the FindAWF utility #2 on some of the programs you identified. Here are the programs I told FindAWF to look at:

"C:\Program Files\Spamihilator\bak\spamihilator.exe"
"C:\Program Files\Common Files\Mediafour\bak\MACVNTFY.EXE"
"C:\Program Files\Mediafour\MacDrive\bak\MacDrive.exe"
"C:\Program Files\Mediafour\MacDrive\bak\MDDiskProtect.exe"
"C:\Program Files\Common Files\Roxio Shared\System\bak\EngUtil.exe"

And here is the log the program created after I ran it:

At this point, I ran Spybot, and it did not find the Zlob DNS Changer. Am I clean?

Thanks again for your help, and sorry if I went off the script a little. :-)

Hi Markka,

I followed your instructions - when you said "Reboot the computer in normal mode", does that mean I was supposed to do the DrWeb scan in safe mode? I did it in normal mode.

Here are my results:

It is not a big thing where you ran DrWeb ;) Normal mode is OK :)

Choose this file: aolsetup.exe

And move it to here:

Hello :)

Also, could you tell me what stage of the process we are in? Have you figured out what's wrong with my computer yet? Do I still have the Zlob problem?
We have got the Zlob out of your computer.

Markka,

I couldn't find this file in Windows Explorer - it doesn't really show the files in the directory, only the "packages" or whatever. I was able to find and delete the file using cmd. I noticed a lot of other hidden files in there.

So since we got rid of Zlob, what are we doing now?

Thanks again for all your help.
