Registry change query

[xerxes]

I've had a Vundo-DJ infection + Zlob downloader which I THINK I've removed - however when I start up I get a Spybot popup with the following -

Spybot - Search & Destroy has detected an important registry entry that has been changed
Category: System Startup user entry
Change: Value deleted
Entry: SpybotDeletingB1119
Old data: command /c del "C:\WINDOWS\sqvgnrpx.dll_old

Should I allow or deny this change?

I removed Vundo-DJ using Avast! and Zlob using Spybot S&D, but the next run of Avast! found more Vundo-DJ infected files. On start-up I am getting a Spybot popup asking if I want to accept or deny a registry change to the entry 'Spybot DeletingB1119'. Am I still infected? HJT log below.

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 suggest you keep this computer offline except when troubleshooting, the junk may download more. If you have any tool I use, delete it and download it new from the link I provide. Read and follow the directions carefully, the tools will not work unless you do.

I will need to investigate before I can comment on if you are infected, looks like Smitfraud (ZLOB).

1) Spybot S&D: You need to read the instructions, under "Help" is the help file and tutorial so you will know how to handle requests from TeaTimer if you are going to run it. For now I need this information.
Open Spybot S&D then click "Help" at the top, then click About. Post for me the version of Spybot S&D you are running and just under it post the Latest detection update.

2) We need first to disable TeaTimer that it doesn't interfere with fixes. You can re-enable it when you're clean again:
* Run Spybot-S&D in Advanced Mode.
* If it is not already set to do this Go to the Mode menu select "Advanced Mode"
* On the left hand side, Click on Tools
* Then click on the Resident Icon in the List
* Uncheck "Resident TeaTimer" and OK any prompts.
* Restart your computer.
(leave TT disabled until we finish)

3) http://siri.geekstogo.com/SmitfraudFix.php <<< download Smitfraudfix from here and follow ONLY these directions.

Search:
Double-click SmitfraudFix.exe
Select 1 and hit Enter to create a report of the infected files. The report can be found at the root of the system drive, usually at C:\rapport.txt

Note: process.exe is detected by some antivirus programs (AntiVir, Dr.Web, Kaspersky) as a "RiskTool". It is not a virus, but a program used to stop system processes. Antivirus programs cannot distinguish between "good" and "malicious" use of such programs, therefore they may alert the user.
http://www.beyondlogic.org/consulting/processutil/processutil.htm

Post only the C:\rapport.txt

This is just a start.

Thanks

[pskelley]

Thanks for returning your information, Smitfraudfix found the infection and it also found this:
»»»»»»»»»»»»»»»»»»»»»»»» hosts
hosts file corrupted !
After we clean, in the next C:\rapport.txt, there may be a very large hosts file (items starting with 127.0.0.1) and I do not need to see it. Edit (remove) it from the C:\rapport.txt before you post it.

Clean:
Reboot your computer in Safe Mode (before the Windows icon appears, tap the F8 key continually)
Double-click SmitfraudFix.exe
Select 2 and hit Enter to delete infect files.
You will be prompted: Do you want to clean the registry ? answer Y (yes) and hit Enter in order to remove the Desktop background and clean registry keys associated with the infection.
The tool will now check if wininet.dll is infected. You may be prompted to replace the infected file (if found): Replace infected file ? answer Y (yes) and hit Enter to restore a clean file.
A reboot may be needed to finish the cleaning process. The report can be found at the root of the system drive, usually at C:\rapport.txt

Optional:
To restore Trusted and Restricted site zone, select 3 and hit Enter.
You will be prompted: Restore Trusted Zone ? answer Y (yes) and hit Enter to delete trusted zone.
Note, if you use SpywareBlaster and/or IE-SPYAD, it will be necessary to re-install the protection both afford. For SpywareBlaster, run the program and re-protect all items. For IE-SPYAD, run the batch file and reinstall the protection.

OK, it seemed to find quite a lot of stuff. One thing that confused me though, was at the point where Malwarebytes was scanning the System restore points, a pop-up appeared from my AV program (Avast!) for each of the 3 infected entries and asked what to do (I moved them to the virus chest). Does Malwarebytes interact with the AV software somehow?

Anyway, below are the logs -

Does Malwarebytes interact with the AV software somehow?No, in fact those System Restore files are protected. The programs may see them but can not do anything about them. We will clean those before we finish.

1) C:\Program Files\Java\jre1.6.0_05\ <<< update your Java program, see this information:
http://forums.spybot.info/showpost.php?p=12880&postcount=2

2) Please download ATF Cleaner by Atribune
http://www.atribune.org/public-beta/ATF-Cleaner.exe
Save it to your Desktop. We will use this later.

3) Open HijackThis and choose "Do a system scan only" then check the box in front of these line items:

O2 - BHO: (no name) - {2B0CA8B2-4808-464C-B6F7-40E16D8949DA} - C:\WINDOWS\system32\khfExwvu.dll (file missing)
O2 - BHO: (no name) - {7E853D72-626A-48EC-A868-BA8D5E23E045} - (no file)

Close all programs but HJT and all browser windows, then click on "Fix Checked"

4) Run ATF Cleaner
Double-click ATF-Cleaner.exe to run the program.
Click Select All found at the bottom of the list.
Click the Empty Selected button.
Click Exit on the Main menu to close the program.

Run the computer a little, then update your antivirus program and run a system scan. Post to tell me how the computer is running now, any malware symptoms at all?

Thanks

(leave TT disabled until we finish) <<< this means what it says, I do not want TT activated until you are sure you are clean. It may be spotting quarantined items in MBAM, infected System Restore files, please turn it off and leave it off.

Thanks

[xerxes]

All done, AV and Spybot S&D scans both clean. (I still have teatimer switched off). Everything looks OK so far. Any further actions required?

[pskelley]

We need to clean the infected System Restore files:
Turn off System Restore.
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.

Reboot

Turn ON System Restore,
On the Desktop, right-click My Computer.
Click Properties.
Click the System Restore tab.
UN-Check *Turn off System Restore*.
Click Apply, and then click OK.

MBAM is freeware, you may keep it if you wish.

ATF-Cleaner You will not find a better, free cleaners that uses no more resrouces than that one. Yours to keep if you wish.

If you are having any malware issues, let me know about them, otherwise I will wish you safe surfing:bigthumb:

I've done the System restore clean as specified. On re-enabling tea-timer, I am still getting the popup as described in my original post, i.e.

Spybot - Search & Destroy has detected an important registry entry that has been changed
Category: System Startup user entry
Change: Value deleted
Entry: SpybotDeletingB1119
Old data: command /c del "C:\WINDOWS\sqvgnrpx.dll_old"

This also occurs if I reboot. The file C:\WINDOWS\sqvgnrpx.dll_old doesn't actually exist. (A Google search suggests sqvgnrpx is a toolbar of some kind). I have not accepted or denied this change and am currently ignoring the popup. What is the best course of action here? - is there still a problem or is this just a relic of the removed problem?

[pskelley]

It is probably just a leftover in the registry, it is almost impossible to get all of the junk out of the registry and I hesitate to use registry cleaners because they often do more harm than good. Why don't you start by getting the newest version of Spybot S&D here:
Spybot-S&D 1.6 has arrived! 8. July 2008
http://www.safer-networking.org/en/
http://www.safer-networking.org/en/news/2008-07-08.html

Uninstall any old versions in Add Remove programs. Once you have the newest version, update it and immunize completely, then run a scan and remove what it finds. Spybot S&D moves anything you remove to "Recovery" in the event of an error. In ten years, I have never had to return anything from Recovery.

It may also be that the information is in TeaTimers memory, and the new version should take care of that.

Let me know...

[xerxes]

Yes, Spybot 1.6 has stopped the messages, probably something in TeaTimer's memory as you suggested. Thanks very much for your help. I shall be following up on some of the other advice, Spyware Blaster and a proper firewall being top of the list I think.

Thanks again.
