Infection?

[drmsucks]

This originally started in the general forum where I reported that Spybot would hang during a scan on "virtumonde.dll." It was suggested that I go here. Below are my Kaspersky log and HJT log. Thanks for the help.

Welcome to Safer Networking, I wish to be sure you have viewed and understand this information.
"BEFORE you POST" (READ this Procedure before Requesting Assistance)
http://forums.spybot.info/showthread.php?t=288
All advice given is taken at your own risk.
Please make sure you have read this information so we are on the same page.

I see no evidence of the Vundo infection in your HJT log or the KOS scan which is clean. It is very rare for Vundo to be on a computer and Kaspersky Online Scan not to find it.

I will say I see these all running, and they will sure slow your computer:
D:\Program Files\a-squared Free\a2service.exe
D:\Program Files\Grisoft\AVG Anti-Spyware 7.5\guard.exe
D:\Program Files\Spyware Terminator\sp_rsser.exe
If you don't own those, I would consider uninstalling them.

Let's do this, return here: D:\Program Files\Trend Micro\HijackThis\HijackThis.exe <<< rename HJT.exe, call it drmsucks.exe then restart the computer and post a new HJT log, let's see if that shows us any malware.

Post also any error messages, any information you believe will help.

Thanks

[drmsucks]

Thanks for your reply! Posted below is the requested HJT log run with drmsucks.exe. I run AVG AV all the time as well as Spyware Terminator for "real time" protection. On demand, I periodically run Spybot, A Squared and AVG Anti-spyware.

With regard to symptoms, the computer runs fine - but hangs midway through a Spybot scan, always hanging (need to invoke task manager to shut down Spybot) at virtumonde.dll.

Absolutely no evidence of Vundo? Are you running the newest version of Spybot S&D 1.5.2? Are you sure you are allowing time for the scanner to look for Vundo files and then to move on. I have seen Spybot hesitate for several minutes, especially with as many files as Vundo has to look for. I can run other tools, but I have a gut feeling we are not going to find anything. Post this question here:
http://forums.spybot.info/forumdisplay.php?f=4
and see what they have to say. Post a link to this topic in that post and post a link to that topic here so I can see what they advise.

Thanks

[drmsucks]

Thank you for checking. I will do as you suggest with the new post.

FYI, I am running 1.5.18 with latest definitions and a scan always hangs at 62097/121366, virtumonde.dll. I know that Spybot takes more time to scan certain files - I originally aborted the "hung" scan after a couple of hours. Subsequently, after several minutes.

Will re-post where you suggested and cross reference.

Again, thanks for your help.
