Spybot showed I had Virtumonde and I've been getting Trojan horses.

[snsteve]

A few nights ago my AntiVirus (AVG Free) popped up indicating that threats had been found. A scan showed that I had several Trojan horses. I moved them to the vault. I again received a message from AVG saying that threats had been detected. The same Trojan horses were listed again. I tried using my Malwarebyte's but it wouldn't let me. I then ran a Spybot scan and it showed the Virtumonde in the results. I hit fix problems. I have continued to have problems.

I have tried re-installing Malwarebyte's by renaming the file like was suggested in an article I found. It will completely install and then I receive an error message when it tries to open.

I keep getting Window Script Host messages that say "Loading your settings failed. (Insufficient system resources exist to complete the requested service.)" I did turn off restore point while trying to follow the suggestions of an article I came across. I turned it back on after reading the instructions from the sticky note in this forum.

A scan with AVG today showed that there were some different Trojan horses. A new scan with Spybot today did not bring up Virtumonde, but in the bar at the bottom of the window it showed it was scanning "Virtumonde.sci"

I have made a backup of the registry with ERUNT as instructed.

[Cypher]

Hi and welcome to SNF, sorry for the delay the forum is really busy.
My name is Cypher, and I will be helping you with your malware problems.

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.
Read Back up your files (http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/windows7/Back-up-your-files)

please note the following important guidelines.

The instructions being given are for YOUR computer and system only!.
Using these instructions on a different computer, can damage that computer and possibly make it inoperable!
If you don't know or understand something, please don't hesitate to ask.
Only post your problem at One help site. Applying fixes from multiple help sites can cause problems.
Only reply to this thread do not start another, Please continue responding until I give you the "All Clean"
Absence of symptoms does not mean that everything is clear.
Please DO NOT run any other tools or scans whilst I am helping you.
Please DO NOT install any other software (or hardware) during the cleaning process. This adds more items to be researched.
Print each set of instructions... if possible...your Internet connection might not be available during some fix processes.
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.
The logs from the tools we use can take some time to research so please be patient.


If you haven't done so already, please read this topic READ this Procedure BEFORE Requesting Assistance (http://forums.spybot.info/showthread.php?t=288) where the conditions for receiving help here are explained.


Please post an Uninstall list.

Open HijackThis.
Click on the Open the Misc Tools section button.
Look under System tools.
Click on the Open Uninstall Manager... button.
Click on the Save list... button.
It will prompt you to save. Save this log in a convenient location. By default it's named uninstall_list.txt.
Notepad will open. Please post this log in your next reply.

it will ask to restart your computer (please allow it to)


Next.

Scan with exeHelper:

Please download exeHelper (http://www.raktor.net/exeHelper/exeHelper.com) and save it 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)
Please post the contents of the log.txt file in your next reply.
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).


Next.

Hi Cypher,

I tried Malwarebytes' once again with no luck. I then disabled the Lava Ad-Aware Service as you instructed. When I did the Unistall part, Malwarebytes' didn't show up in the list, but I went directly to the file in my Programs folder and uninstalled it. I then rebooted.

I then downloaded and tried to run the utility you linked to, but was unsuccessful. It would download, but when I would go to run it it would pop up and say "This utility will remove all components of Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware from your system. Are you sure you want to continue?" When I clicked yes, it would then pop up and say, "SHGetValue failed with error code 0" Then it wouldn't do anything.

Should I continue on with the rest of your instructions?

[Cypher]

Hi snsteve.
Don't worry about Malwarebytes for now please continue with the instructions below.

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

Show All (don't miss this one)
Then click the Scan button & wait for it to finish

Save it where you can easily find it, such as your desktop, and post it in your next reply**Caution**
