FAKEMSN8Beta .. plz help!!

[setione]

I recently got a virus/trojan(?) from MSN messanger ... the bug instantly disabled norton and then proceeded to alter some registry files ...

I ran Spybot - SD and it found several things including something called "FAKEMSN8Beta", which i assumed to be the origional parisite, and other bots which prevented me from going to almost anysite related to anti-spyware/virius help

...moreover, after runing Sybot agian , the program would not work .. it said
something about a "library of detection rules was needed to run" .. uninstalled and then reinstaled and then Spybot SD worked again .. I rebooted in safe mode and ran both progams again and found and deleted the same bots/bugs ...

reboot in to normal mode and this time only "FAKEMSN8Beta" was found ...

I could now visit other sites agian ...

I did several days research on various forums and found a little program called
MsnVirRem ... followed the instruction for this program and rebooted in safe mode and ran it ..

MsnVirRem found three items and posted them in a log (i do not have this log
anymore as i ran the program again and it automatically made a new log overwiting the old one .. incidentaly, the rescan found nothing)I believe the items were "csrss.exe" and "lsass.exe" (these were not the one's my system uses as the deleted ones were located in an oddly named folder (hidden) and both programs still show in taskmanager)rebooted in normal mode and then once again ran Sybot - SD and Ad-adwareSE and this time "FAKEMSN8Beta" did not show ... However, upon start-up i noticed that norton was still starting in "unenabled" mode everytime and i have to enable it
manually everytime. Now i went to get Ewido and ran it in safemode following the

instructions when installing: under "Additional Options" uncheck..

* Install background guard
* Install scan via context menu
ran in safe mode and it found a wack of cookies which i deleted. Went and got an online scan done by Panda ActiveScan and it found several trojans which were then deleted.

Rebooted my system and Norton still automatically disables itself on start-up. And i have ensured that the "Start Auto-protect when Windows starts up" box IS checked. Another occurance that i have noticed is that when i try to start WinTasks 5 it shuts down right away. I am not sure if this is the virus or not as no other applications are affected this way (although opening the registry editor used to cuase the same thing to happen, but this no longer happens).
I am convinced that whatever changes to the registry the virus initially did are still affecting my system and could use whatever advice you could give me. Here is my latest HJT Log:

Welcome to the forum setione
Your log looks fine
Try uninstalling the problematic programs, reboot then install them again.

Post a report from one or better yet both of these free online scans

Panda ActiveScan-Free online scanner,
http://www.pandasoftware.com/products/activescan.htm
Do a full scan > Click the my computer button
After the scan click see report then Save the report and post it back here please.

Kaspersky Lab - Free Online scan:
http://www.kaspersky.com/virusscanner
Click scan settings and place a check next to use [x]extended this database etc etc. Click ok.
Then choose: my computer: scan all your hard drives and mapped disks.
when finished click save as text and post that in your reply.

[setione]

thanks for taking time out of your busy schedule Lonny, much appreciated. I have run both the scans requested..

PandaScan Log found two cookies:


Incident Status Location

Spyware:Cookie/Hbmediapro Notdisinfected C:\Documents and Settings\LISA\Cookies\lisa@adopt.hbmediapro[2].txt
Spyware:Cookie/Atwola Notdisinfected C:\Documents and Settings\LISA\Cookies\lisa@atwola[1].txt

The Kaspersky scan found nothing


I have also unistalled/reinstalled Wintasks and Norton .. Norton still will not auto protect and Wintasks still disappears on start up ..

Thanks once again ..

[LonnyRJones]

Did you reboot after the uninstall and install's when prompted ?

Not sure whats up here, lets see if silent runners reviels anything
Download and run Silentrunners.Vbs post the log it creates please
http://www.silentrunners.org/sr_scriptuse.html click no to not skip the suplimentry searchs
Wait until there is a All Done message !!, Then open and post the log next to it.
Your antivirus script protection might interfear or alert, please allow it to run after a bit box will say done.

[setione]

Followed your advice and Norton now seems to work on start up, but Wintasks still crashes.

Here is my silent runners log:

Looks ok, can you get in touch with wintasks tech support and see what they suggest ?

[setione]

I believe i have this one solved .. i found that i had (or maybe the virus had) changed Norton to "manual" in services.msc .. once i changed it back to automatic .. it worked on start up eveytime .. as for wintasks, after your analysis of my system came back clean i began to think that there must be somthing wrong with this application .. sure enough, a little searching on the topic and i found a forum with several people complaining of the same problem .. they pointed me to some fixes and it now works as well .. I do appreciate the help though and it was nice to have a second opinion on this .. :bigthumb:

Replace it about once monthly to keep it updated

Im Glad we could help
Since the problems are solved Im going to close the topic now, this keeps others with similar problems from posting there logs/question here, they should start a new topic.

If you should need to post another log for the same PC let Me or Tashi know.
