View Full Version : Spurious security warnings?
BolderBiker
2007-09-06, 20:45
I absent-mindedly clicked on some pop-up when visiting an internet site and now have a series of security pop-ups that appear at annoying frequency. I believe that they are all spurious. "Moshi" described the symptoms accurately in a recent, terminated thread (http://forums.spybot.info/showthread.php?t=17216), so I will just paste her description of the problem:
Hi,
I kept getting the following popups:
a) Windows Security Alert
Your computer is making unauthorized copies of your system and Internet files. Run scan now to prevent any unauthorised access to your files! Click here to download spyware remover...
If I click on the YES button to download the spyware remover (I'm not logon though), the browser would bring me to hxxp://go.winantivirus.com/MTY2NjU=/2/6018/ax=1/ed=1/ex=1/455/
Is this site to be trusted? How can I get rid of this popup?
b) URGENT!!! Windows Security Notification!
2953 Privacy Violations Found! Click here to download and install software to eliminate them!
If I click to download, the browser would go to hxxp://go.privacyprotector.com/.......
c) Warning: possible malware infection!
Malware files are detected on your computer! It's strongly recommended to scan your system immediately in order
d) Your computer is infected!
Windows has detected spyware infection!
It is recommended to use special antispyware tools to prevent data loss. Windows will now download and install the most up-to-date antispyware for you.
Click here to protect your computer from spyware!
If I click where it instructed, the browser goes to the hxxp://go.winantivirus.com/MTY2NjU=/2/6018/ax=1/ed=1/ex=1/455/
I've tried using the spybot to check problems and to fix them but after rebooting the system, the errors appear again.
What has happened to my system and What should I do? Thanks!
I would ony add the additional symptom that access to Control Panel appears to have disappeared, and that Norton Internet Security / Antivirus detects no problem.
Here is the Hijack log:

hi BolderBiker,
first we will use hjt, then look for some files to delete:
scan with HJT, put a checkmark beside the items below, close all windows and click fix checked.
F2 - REG:system.ini: Shell=Explorer.exe C:\WINDOWS\system32\printer.exe
O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [WinAVX] C:\WINDOWS\system32\WinAvXX.exe
O4 - Startup: system.exe
O4 - Global Startup: autorun.exe
O20 - AppInit_DLLs: systems.txt
-----------------
next:
navigate to the system32 dir and look for and delete these three .exe's
WinAvXX.exe
printer.exe
winntify.exe
if you cant delete them bring up task manager by clicking on ctrl-alt-delete. if you see them listed under the process tab, click and end process on them. then try to delete the .exe
--------------------------
first stop is here:
Download SmitfraudFix (by S!Ri) to your Desktop:
http://siri.urz.free.fr/Fix/SmitfraudFix.zip
Extract all the files to your Destop. A folder named SmitfraudFix will be created on your Desktop.
Open the SmitfraudFix folder and double-click smitfraudfix.cmd
Select option #1 - Search by typing 1 and press Enter
This program will scan large amounts of files on your computer for known patterns so please be patient while it works. It will create a file named: c:\rapport.txt
stop at this point and post a HijackThis log along with the contents of the c:\rapport.txt.
Note : process.exe is detected by some antivirus programs (AntiVir, Dr.Web, Kaspersky) as a "RiskTool"; it is not a virus, but a program used to stop system processes. Antivirus programs cannot distinguish between "good" and "malicious" use of such programs, therefore they may alert the user.
---------------------------
next stop:
Please download ComboFix (by sUBs) from one of the following links:
http://www.techsupportforum.com/sectools/sUBs/ComboFix.exe
http://download.bleepingcomputer.com/sUBs/ComboFix.exe
Save it to the Desktop.
Double-click combofix.exe and follow the prompts.
CAUTION: Do not mouse-click ComboFix's window while it is running.
It may cause it to stall.
When finished, it produces a log.
Please provide the contents of the ComboFix log in your reply--
-----------------------------
after the above, post a new hjt log, the smitfraud log and the combofix log.

Hi Shelf Life: Many thanks for your help.
Before the SmitfraudFix "C:\rapport.txt" report, I should mention that this pesky thing is switching off Norton Internet Securities' "Phishing Protection", even after I have restored it using Symantec's fix.
Anyway, here is the :C:\rapport.txt" report, after having completed all the preceding steps that you outlined:

Hi Shelf Life:
It looks like your prescriptive instructions has cured the problem. Thank you. I will do some work on the computer for a while to see if the problems re-occur but I believe the nightmare may be over. Do you know what type of infection/intrusion my computer experienced?
BTW, I agree "Security is a Process, Not a Product"......Unfortunately, a process I violated when clicking unwisely on a misleading pop-up on an otherwise innocent site.

hi BolderBiker,
ok good. cruise around make sure its all ok.
Do you know what type of infection/intrusion my computer experienced
its called smitfraud. there are countless different fake spyware removers you are prompted to download. they scan and find all kinds of horrible stuff on your computer. the catch is to "remove it" will cost you a fee.
and you can get it from a malicious website and many other ways.
i have some short malware install videos on my website. one is from just visitng a website:
http://security-central.us/SafeHex/trojan%20video.htm
once it all looks good we will make new restore points.

Hi Shelf Life:
I have worked with the computer all day, and it seems to be back to normal. I guess computers are like your body: you don't fully appreciate good health until you don't have it! Should I now go ahead and create a restore point?

hi BolderBiker,
be back to normal
good
now go ahead and create a restore point?
yes, you can do it like this:
One of the features of Windows ME or XP is the System Restore option, however if a malware infects a computer with this operating system it can be backed up in the System Restore folder. Therefore, clearing the restore points is agood idea after malware is removed.
To reset your restore points, please note that you will need to log into your computer with an account which has full administrator access. You will know if the account has administrator access because you will be able to see the System Restore tab. If the tab is missing, you are logged in under a limited account.
(winXP)
1. Turn off System Restore. (deletes old possibly infected restore point)
On the Desktop, right-click My Computer.
Click Properties.
Click the System Restore tab.
Check Turn off System Restore.
Click Apply, and then click OK.
2. Reboot.
3. Turn ON System Restore.(new restore points on a clean system)
On the Desktop, right-click My Computer.
Click Properties.
Click the System Restore tab.
UN-Check *Turn off System Restore*.
Click Apply, and then click OK, then reboot

Hi Shelf Life.
I have switched System Restore off and on, with appropriate reboots, then created a "post-cleaning" Restore Point.
Many thanks for your invaluable guidance, without which I would still be enduring the frustrations, vexations and worry of the Smitfraud virus on my computer. May all your help to afflisted victims of computer infections be equally effective and equally appreciated.
With my sincere thanks,
BolderBiker
