Need help with unknown infection

[brodieboy143]

I'm not an expert in the subject of infections and detecting them, so help here would be greatly appreciated

lately my computer has shown definitive signs of infection, with an error appearing on log on regrading logongui.dll or a similar file, and rundll32.dll fails ti initiate whenever i try

My Browser Settings are constantly being reset to accept all cookies in ie and mozilla firefox exceptions list is now clear after being set with spybot S&D

avira antivir is constantly detecting files in my temporary internet files, which i always quarantine, and plan to shred

Here is my HijackThis log

actually that should read userinit.exe not logongui.dll

Hi

You've got flash infection among all the others. That means if you have used external storages like usb pendrive or hard drive with the machine while it was infected it's quite possible that the infection is now on those too and if you plug infected drive to other system that will get infected too. So, it's recommended to reformat those drives you've used with the infected machine.


1. Download combofix from any of these links and save it to Desktop:
Link 1 (http://download.bleepingcomputer.com/sUBs/ComboFix.exe)
Link 2 (http://www.forospyware.com/sUBs/ComboFix.exe)
Link 3 (http://subs.geekstogo.com/ComboFix.exe)

**Note: It is important that it is saved directly to your desktop**

2. Double click combofix.exe & follow the prompts.
3. When finished, it shall produce a log for you (C:\ComboFix.txt). Post that log & a fresh hjt log in your next reply

Note:
Do not mouseclick combofix's window whilst it's running. That may cause it to stall

Combofix should never take more that 20 minutes including the reboot if malware is detected.
If it does, open Task Manager then Processes tab (press ctrl, alt and del at the same time) and end any processes of findstr, find, sed or swreg, then combofix should continue.
If that happened we want to know, and also what process you had to end.

If you have problems with Combofix usage, see here (http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/combofix/how-to-use-combofix)
