Malware help needed - "Warning - You have Spyware!"

[greenalfonzo]

Last Tuesday I started getting a flash at startup and at standby/shutdown of a box that stated "Warning! You are infected with Spyware! Install antivirus..."

I ran deepscans with ZA & Ad-Aware and found nothing. I ran spybot and found and deleted some virtumonde and spysheriff. After rebooting the problem then got worse with the warning permamently onscreen now and occasional pop-ups.

I forgot to add that I ran combofix already and posted the log in this thread: http://forums.spybot.info/showthread.php?t=30110

Hi

Uninstall Spybot for now to make sure TeaTimer won't interfere fixing. You may reinstall it after system is clean (I'll let you know when :)).


Your Java is out of date.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).
Scroll down to where it says
The J2SE Runtime Environment (JRE) allows end-users to run Java applications.

Click the
Download
button to the right.
Select Windows on platform combobox and check the box that says:
Accept License Agreement. Click continue.

The page will refresh.
Click on the link to download Windows Offline Installation with or without Multi-language and save to your desktop.
Close any programs you may have running - especially your web browser.
Go to Start > Control Panel double-click on Add/Remove programs and remove all older versions of Java.
Check any item with Java Runtime Environment (JRE or J2SE) in the name.
Click the Remove or Change/Remove button.
Repeat as many times as necessary to remove each Java versions.
Reboot your computer once all Java components are removed.
Then from your desktop double-click on jre-6u6-windows-i586-p.exe to install the newest version.


Start hjt, do a system scan, check:

O3 - Toolbar: (no name) - {2318C2B1-4965-11d4-9B18-009027A5CD4F} - (no file)

Close browsers and other windows. Click fix checked.

Open notepad and copy/paste the text in the quotebox below into it:



File::
C:\WINDOWS\system32\blphcnl4j0etdr.scr
C:\WINDOWS\system32\lphcnl4j0etdr.exe
C:\WINDOWS\system32\phcnl4j0etdr.bmp

Registry::
[-HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\~\Browser Helper Objects\{636D50B6-8A11-4671-800D-A86F9D429E21}]



Save this as
CFScript

A word of warning: Neither I nor sUBs are responsible for any damage you may have caused your machine by running ComboFix on your own. This tool is not a toy and not for everyday use.

http://users.pandora.be/bluepatchy/miekiemoes/images/CFScript.gif

Refering to the picture above, drag CFScript into ComboFix.exe
Then post the resultant log.


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.
