The reason why i got afraid is after last running the look 2 me destroy .exe ,i tried running ad aware and i saw that ad aware did not see cmdservices or coolwebsearch anymore.but now after 4 hours when i again ran adaware i am seeing the presence of cmdservice and coolwebsearch.as of now the browser has not started to pop up on its own.But i fear the worst.
the other suspicious objects according to adaware are
1. mru list
2.vx2
3.win32.trojan.dnschanger
4.other
This is in addition to cmdservices and coolwebsearch
Do tell me as to what i should do.
I deeply appreciate any help on the same.
Thanks in advance,
sant

Hi
The command service is shown in your running processes in your first log :-
C:\WINDOWS\YWRtaW4\command.exe
But surprisingly not in your O23 services section...
After that, it is shown nowhere in any of your logs...
1. mru list < mru list are nothing to worry about, they are simply lists of programs you have run, opened etc, the programs themselves may no longer exist, anything on these lists, you can ignore...
2.vx2 < your vx2 (look2me) infection is history ... this can only be a leftover..
These next 2 I cannot comment on without seeing your Adaware log ... please attach it..
3.win32.trojan.dnschanger
4.other
---
Also I cannot get you to fix anything with hijackthis untill you have hijackthis in a permanent folder ( for your own safety)
I have no idea where it is at the moment ... \tsplblr\h$\santhosh\HijackThis.exe
To put hijackthis into a permanent folder... here's how :-
PLease do this first - go to C: and create a new permanent folder (call it hijackthis) ...Then put (or download - choose "save" not "run") the hijackthis.exe file in it (You must unzip it if it's zipped)...... so you have C:\hijackthis\hijackthis.exe.....then run hijackthis by clicking this .exe file -that way you will have backups if you accidentally remove the wrong item ( running from a temporary folder it will not be able to create backups ) click Do a system scan and save a logfile
cheers

Hi
It certainly is back...
I want you to do the following :-
1. Download & setup ewido
2. run the l2m destroyer again
3. boot to safemode & Run ewido And hijackthis...
Here's how... (Please do this in the EXACT order I have posted)
First...
Please download delcmdservice (http://users.telenet.be/marcvn/tools/delcmdservice.zip) (by Marckie), and save it to your Desktop.
1. Unzip to your Desktop (a folder named delcmdservice)
2. Open the delcmdservice folder
3. Double-click on delreg.bat to launch the tool
Then...
Download ewido security suite (http://www.ewido.net/en/download/)install, update and run it.
Please set up as :-
1. When installing, under "Additional Options" uncheck "Install background guard" and "Install scan via context menu".
2. Run Ewido --- When you run it for the first time, you will get a warning "Database could not be found!". Click OK. We will fix this in a moment.
3. From the main ewido screen, click on update in the left menu, then click the Start update button.
4. After the update finishes (the status bar at the bottom will display "Update successful")
5. You may need to manually update the definitions which you can get HERE (http://www.ewido.net/en/download/updates/)
6. Exit Ewido. DO NOT scan yet.
Run the l2m destroyer now and save the log
Boot into safemode...and scan with Ewido
7. Click on the Scanner button in the left menu, then click on Complete System Scan. This scan can take quite a while to run.
8. If ewido finds anything, it will pop up a notification. We have been finding some cases of false positives with the new version of Ewido, so we need to step through the fixes one-by-one. If Ewido finds something that you KNOW is legitimate (for example, parts of AVG Antivirus, AOL pcAnywhere and the game "Risk" have been flagged), select "none" as the action. DO NOT check "Perform action with all infections". If you are unsure of an entry, select "none" for the time being. I'll see that in the log you will post later and let you know if ewido needs to be run again.
9. Once the ewido scan has completed, there will be a button located on the bottom of the screen called Save report.
Important - You need to click "Save report" and Save it to your desktop, or you wont have a log
Still in safemode...
Now run hijackthis
Place a checkmark next to any of these which remain :-

O23 - Service: Command Service (cmdService) - Unknown owner - C:\WINDOWS\YWRtaW4\command.exe
O23 - Service: Network Monitor - Unknown owner - C:\Program Files\Network Monitor\netmon.exe
still in safemode...
delete the following files (if found) :-
c:\windows\keyboard3.exe ... file
c:\windows\mousepad3.exe ... file
c:\windows\newname3.exe ... file
& this folder ...
C:\WINDOWS\YWRtaW4 ... folder
Now reboot to normal mode...
Run hijackthis and post a new log + the ewido log + the l2m destroyer log

In addition to this i have deleted the files that you have mentioned.Also i have deleted keyboard4.exe and newname4.exe.I have also deleted the files like keyboard4.dat and similar suspicious entries.Thankfully my comp is still running.
Presently i am running a symantec scan and the only issue till now is a trojan adclicker known as A0173848.exe which was present in
C:\System Volume Information\_restore{29FD9B63-4F58-4DB0-B2C4-8709D5244F27}\RP653\.
Please tell me that my comp is clean now.Thanks a lot for the time spent.Hope you have killed those viruses.

Hi
Sorry to hear of your bereavement...
You've done very well
Just this entry to fix in hijackthis :-
O23 - Service: Command Service (cmdService) - Unknown owner - C:\WINDOWS\YWRtaW4\command.exe (file missing)
Then find and delete this folder :-
C:\WINDOWS\YWRtaW4 ... folder
In addition to this i have deleted the files that you have mentioned.Also i have deleted keyboard4.exe and newname4.exe.I have also deleted the files like keyboard4.dat and similar suspicious entries.Thankfully my comp is still running.
That's fine ...
This is some info about that infection, if you are curious...
http://www.avira.com/en/threats/section/fulldetails/id_vir/1730/tr_dldr.vb.xv.html
Presently i am running a symantec scan and the only issue till now is a trojan adclicker known as A0173848.exe which was present in
C:\System Volume Information\_restore{29FD9B63-4F58-4DB0-B2C4-8709D5244F27}\RP653\.
It's in your system restore folder..
This will clear all your infected restore points...
Turn off (Disable) System Restore in XP :-
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.
Restart your computer.
Then...
Turn on (enable) System Restore :-
Follow the same procedure, but this time uncheck Turn off System Restore
if you have any problem with this... here's a link to instructions :-

Hi steam,

Steam,
I am unable to find the folder.I had tried clearing the same with Hijack this also.It gave me the message file not found.
Thanks for the virus info passed on.Do you have any suggestions for me to protect myself in the future.
I have a symantec antivirus,spybot,adaware.I keep updating the same to keep up with the viruses.I got this infection because i was using limewire and downloaded some file that cranked up my system.i have now removed limewire from my system.
Once again accept my heartfelt thanks for the great help.
Cheers,
sant

Hi steam,
I sure did find the folder as per your instructions and deleted it.The comp is behaving itself for the past couple of days.
I am sure that the same would have been impossible without your assistance.
Thanks a million steam for the help rendered.
