View Full Version : Spyware Destructor

Hi,

I need help identifying & removing possible malware on my system. Occasionally, I get a popup in FireFox 2.0.0.14 (I rarely use IE) that says: "The page at http://scan.spywaredestructor.com says: If your computer has been running slower than normal, it may be stored with Adwares, Spywares or Malwares. Spyware Destructor can perform a quick and completely FREE scan of your system for malicious software. Download Spyware Destructor for FREE now!"

I saw this for the first time last night while surfing, mentioned it to my wife and she said she'd seen it a while ago and closed the window. When I saw the popup, I clicked the X on the window and it took me to a page that started a scan - I quickly closed the browser window and ran both McAfee and Windows Defender with nothing detected. Surfed quite a bit more today and didn't see it. This evening, while my wife was surfing it came up again (she was on MySpace at the time) and I had her printscreen it.

After a bit of googling, seems like this is relatively new (last week of April) or a clone of something else. I then downloaded SpyBot and here I am. Any help would be appreciated.

Of note: I've seen viruses/trojan/malware like this before on friends' and family's computers and usually took care of their problems by doing a fresh OS install, but I really don't want to do that just yet on this PC (its new, and I worry about having to reinstall Vista). This particular popup doesn't appear to be as aggressive as the things I've seen on others' computers, so I'm not quite sure I'm quite infected yet (but of course could be wrong). When I say that, I mean usually you see a million popups and the computer slows to a crawl. Knock on wood, this has not happened yet. Only that popup and performance is the same.

Also of note: After installing SpyBot it found 95 problems, all cookies.

Hi

Can't see anything unusual there. Let's run Kaspersky scan for just in case. Update outdated Java too.

Download ATF (Atribune Temp File) Cleaner© by Atribune (http://www.atribune.org/ccount/click.php?id=1) to your desktop.

Double-click ATF Cleaner.exe to open it

Under Main choose:
Windows Temp
Current User Temp
All Users Temp
Cookies
Temporary Internet Files
Prefetch
Java Cache
*The other boxes are optional*
Then click the Empty Selected button.

If you use Firefox:
Click Firefox at the top and choose: Select All
Click the Empty Selected button.
NOTE: If you would like to keep your saved passwords, please click NO at the prompt.

If you use Opera:
Click Opera at the top and choose: Select All
Click the Empty Selected button.
NOTE: If you would like to keep your saved passwords, please click NO at the prompt.

Click Exit on the Main menu to close the program.


Please run 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 start to download the latest definition files.
Once the scanner is installed and the definitions downloaded, click Next.
Now click on Scan Settings and select the following:
Scan using the following Anti-Virus database:
Extended (If available, otherwise Standard)
Scan Options:
Scan Archives
Scan Mail Bases
Click OK.
Under
select a target to scan
, select My Computer.
The scan will take a while so be patient and let it run. As it scans your machine very deeply it could take hours to complete, Kaspersky suggests running it during a time of low activity.Once the scan is complete:
Click on the Save as Text button.
Save the file to your desktop.
Copy and paste that information into your next post if the AV content will fit into one post only.
If the results of the anti virus scan itself will take more than one post to contain, you may upload it to http://rapidshare.com


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

If having a problme doing the above

Make sure that your Internet security settings are set to default values.

To set default security settings for Internet Explorer:

* Open Internet Explorer.
* Go to the Tools menu, then choose Internet Options.
* Click on the Security tab.
* Make sure that all four item (Internet, Local intranet, Trusted sites, and Restricted sites) are set to their default settings.

____________________

Your Java is out of date. Older versions have vulnerabilities that malware can use to infect your system. Please follow these steps to remove older version Java components and update to the latest version...

Updating Java:

Download the latest version of Java Runtime Environment (JRE) 6 Update 6 (http://java.sun.com/javase/downloads/index.jsp).

Ok, did as directed in the order that you suggested.

Ran ATF Cleaner, but one thing it said was disabled was "Prefetch". Everything else was OK.

Ran Kaspersky Online Scanner and it found 1 virus, 1 infected object. I'm guessing its the string "C:\Users\Anna\AppData\Local\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\2e75uq2n.default\Cache\9BD32C00d01 Infected: not-a-virus:Downloader.Win32.WinFixer.fs skipped" as it had a skull icon next to it. Funny that it says "not a virus". Will wait until you tell me how to proceed.

Deleted Java and installed latest version suggested.

Here is my Kaspersky log:

Hi

Actually it seems that Prefetch is not selectable in Vista. Clear Firefox cache by following instructions here (http://kb.iu.edu/data/ahic.html#fire2w). That should take care of the finding :)

Ok, cleared FireFox cache.

Does this mean my system is clean? The pop-up in question (from my first post) did not present itself on the same website for me as it did for my wife - that's why I was worried. Though I don't seem to be experiencing the expected behavior (slow performance and lots of pop-ups), I still would like to make sure it's eradicated. I have not seen the pop-up at all today and neither did my wife.

Thanks

Hi

Yes, it looks good now. I recommend you to get hosts file to make your surfing experience safer (I use it too :)). You can download it here (http://www.mvps.org/winhelp2002/hosts.htm). Make sure you read the instructions on how to install the hosts file. There is a good tutorial here (http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/forums/tutorial51.html)

Thank you very much for the HOSTS file information! I'd heard about this trick before but never really felt knowledgeable enough to do anything with it. The links you provided made it very easy to understand.

I manually edited the MVP Hosts file to include the spyware destructor urls that I know about, as I did not see them anywhere in that file.

I seem to be doing OK now, and now I have the added bonus of blocking LOTS of ads. Once again, thanks for your help.

Since this issue appears to be resolved ... this Topic has been closed. Glad I could help. :)

Note:If it has been five days or more since your last post, and the helper assisting you posted a response to that post to which you did not reply, your topic will not be reopened. At that point, if you still require help, please start a new topic and include a fresh HijackThis log and a link to your previous thread.

If it has been less than five days since your last response and you need the thread re-opened, please send me or your helper a private message (pm). A valid, working link to the closed topic is required.
