Hijacked Links/Administrator Rights Issues/Other Problems [Archive]

Background:

I had been experiencing problems with my external HD, a WD5000D032 (it stopped being recognized) and decided to try and get some data recovery software to see if they'd help. Eventually I came across this piece of software on TPB (http://thepiratebay.org/torrent/4432630/Data_Doctor_Recovery_PRO_-14in1-_(portable)__FIXED_) to give it a shot, which clearly was a big mistake. Immediately my Symantec Antivirus gave a popup of a virus it had auto-protected, but clearly it didn't catch everything.

Now I see that my Google links are intermittently hijacked, and additionally, there seem to be deeper problems. I was using Computer Management->Disk Management to diagnose my HD problems, and noticed that my hard drives were no longer displaying. Even more tellingly, GetDataBack, which had previously no problems showing my disk drives, was now giving me a message saying "You must have administrator rights in order to access physical or logical drives." This is mind-boggling considering that my user account is still listed as having Administrator access. I also cannot create any new System Restore Points, and when I tried looking for past ones, was unable to find any (I guess they got deleted). Regardless, at this point I don't know what the problems really are. I use Ad-Aware, Malwarebytes Anti-Malware, Spybot S&D, and Symantec Antivirus (courtesy of my University) and neither seem to be able to remove the problem.

I'm hoping, in addition to identifying whatever malware I now have, that some advice can be given on how to re-enable whatever Administrator rights have been lost/disabled that are preventing me from at least seeing my disk drives in Disk Management, and whatever other settings may have possibly been altered.

Follow the directions carefully and in the numbered order.

1) uTorrent <<< all p2p programs must be uninstalled.

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)

Ad-Watch <<< may also block what we must do, disable it until you finish:

3) 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.

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

O2 - BHO: WormRadar.com IESiteBlocker.NavFilter - {3CA2F312-6F6E-4B53-A66E-4E65E497C8C0} - (no file)

O17 - HKLM\System\CCS\Services\Tcpip\Parameters: NameServer = 208.67.220.220,208.67.222.222

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

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.

(you do not have to download MBAM again if you still have it, but you must update the program and run it as instructed. The last scan you reported:
"No action taken", if the directions are follow, any items MBAM locates will say "Quarantined and deleted successfully"

6) Download Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware to your Desktop
http://www.malwarebytes.org/

* Double-click mbam-setup.exe and follow the prompts to install the program.
* Be sure a checkmark is placed next to Update Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware and Launch Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware, then click Finish.
* If an update is found, it will download and install the latest version.
* Once the program has loaded, select Perform FULL SCAN, then click Scan.
* When the scan is complete, click OK, then Show Results to view the results.
* Be sure that everything is checked, and click Remove Selected.
* When completed, a log will open in Notepad. Please save it to a convenient location. The log can also be opened by going to Start > All Programs > Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware > Logs > log-date.txt
* Please post contents of that file & a new HJT log in your next reply.

Note: If MBAM encounters a file that is difficult to remove, you will be presented with 1 of 2 prompts. Click OK to either and let MBAM proceed with the disinfection process. If asked to restart the computer, please do so immediately. Failure to reboot will prevent MBAM from removing all the malware.
