Possable Maxx++ Rootkit/exe files not working

[kennopey]

Hello,


When i rebooted my computer i only can see the wall paper, no icons or start menu. I found b.exe running and i can not run unhack me, spybot. I stopped the b.exe file from running. I tired to run a new task with explorer but i get an error that says windows cannot access the specified device,path or file. you may not have the appropriate permissons to access the item. I get this same error for most of my exe files such as Hijackthis. So i can not post a log file for it. I was able to run trojan remover for a little bit and it caught a trojan call poprock but never was able to remove the trojan because it was stopped.

can you please help me.

thanks

i finally got HJT to let me run a scan and figured i would post it here in hopes it helps....

Please note that all instructions given are customised for this computer only, the tools used may cause damage if used on a computer with different infections.

If you think you have similar problems, please post a log in the HJT forum and wait for help.

Hi kennopey and welcome to Safer Networking. :)

I'm Dakeyras and I am going to try to assist you with your problem. Please take note of the below:

I will start working on your Malware issues, this may or may not, solve other issues you have with your machine.
The fixes are specific to your problem and should only be used for this issue on this machine!.
The process is not instant. Please continue to review my answers until I tell you your machine is clear. Absence of symptoms does not mean that everything is clear.
If you don't know, stop and ask! Don't keep going on.
Please reply to this thread. Do not start a new topic.
Refrain from running self fixes as this will hinder the malware removal process.
It may prove beneficial if you print of the following instructions or save them to notepad as I post them.
Your security programs may give warnings for some of the tools I will ask you to use. Be assured, any links I give are safe.

Before we start:

Please be aware that removing Malware is a potentially hazardous undertaking. I will take care not to knowingly suggest courses of action that might damage your computer. However it is impossible for me to foresee all interactions that may happen between the software on your computer and those we'll use to clear you of infection, and I cannot guarantee the safety of your system. It is possible that we might encounter situations where the only recourse is to re-format and re-install your operating system, or to necessitate you taking your computer to a repair shop.

Because of this, I advise you to backup any personal files and folders before you start.

Download/run Rkill:

Please download Rkill from one of the following links and save to your Desktop:

One (http://download.bleepingcomputer.com/grinler/rkill.exe), Two (http://download.bleepingcomputer.com/grinler/rkill.com),Three (http://download.bleepingcomputer.com/grinler/rkill.scr) or Four (http://download.bleepingcomputer.com/grinler/rkill.pif)


Double click on Rkill.
A command window will open then disappear upon completion, this is normal.
Please leave Rkill on the Desktop until otherwise advised.
Note: If your security software warns about Rkill, please ignore and allow the download to continue.

Next:

Please download exeHelper (http://www.raktor.net/exeHelper/exeHelper.com) to your desktop.


Double-click on exeHelper.com to run the fix.
A black window should pop up, press any key to close once the fix is completed.
Post the contents of exehelperlog.txt (Will be created in the directory where you ran exeHelper.com, and should open at the end of the scan)
Note: If the window shows a message that says "Error deleting file", please re-run the program before posting a log - and post the two logs together (they will both be in the one file).

Scan with GMER:

Please download GMER Rootkit Scanner from here (http://www.gmer.net/download.php).

Double click the .exe file. If asked to allow gmer.sys driver to load, please consent
If it gives you a warning about rootkit activity and asks if you want to run scan...click on NO

http://i266.photobucket.com/albums/ii277/sUBs_/th_Gmer_initScan.gif (http://i266.photobucket.com/albums/ii277/sUBs_/Gmer_initScan.gif)

Click the image to enlarge it


In the right panel, you will see several boxes that have been checked. Uncheck the following ...

Sections
IAT/EAT
Drives/Partition other than Systemdrive (typically C:\)
Show All (don't miss this one)
Then click the Scan button & wait for it to finish
Once done click on the [Save..] button, and in the File name area, type in "Gmer.txt" or it will save as a .log file
Save it where you can easily find it, such as your desktop, and post it in reply
**Caution**
Rootkit scans often produce false positives. Do NOT take any action on any "<--- ROOKIT" entries
Note: Do not run any programs while Gmer is running.

When completed the above, please post back the following in the order asked for:

How is you computer performing now, any further symptoms and or problems encountered?
exehelperlog.txt.
GMER Log.
