After scanning for problems produced a clean slate, I took a peek at System Startup and saw the following entry:

Located: HK_CU:Run, Lnokaxi
where: S-1-5-21-3361271000-3595603026-2878554568-1005...
command: rundll32.exe "C:\Documents and Settings\Kelli\Local Settings\Application Data\azeciris.dll",Startup

MD5: D41D8CD98F00B204E9800998ECF8427E
Warning: if the file is actually larger than 0 bytes,
the checksum could not be properly calculated!

good, bad, or ugly?

Hi,

Doesn't look like a good item.

Download DDS and save it to your desktop from here (http://download.bleepingcomputer.com/sUBs/dds.com) or here (http://download.bleepingcomputer.com/sUBs/dds.scr) or here (http://www.forospyware.com/sUBs/dds).
Disable any script blocker, and then double click dds.scr to run the tool.
When done, DDS will open two (2) logs:
DDS.txt
Attach.txt

Save both reports to your desktop. Post them back to your topic.

Hi again,

Disable Spybot's TeaTimer to make sure it won'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


Please visit this webpage for download links, and instructions for running ComboFix tool:

http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/combofix/how-to-use-combofix

Please ensure you read this guide carefully first.

Please continue as follows:


Close/disable all anti virus and anti malware programs so they do not interfere with the running of ComboFix, link (http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/forums/topic114351.html)
Remember to re-enable them afterwards.


Click Yes to allow ComboFix to continue scanning for malware.


When the tool is finished, it will produce a report for you.

Please include the following reports for further review, and so we may continue cleansing the system:

Before applying ComboFix, I ran MwB and got this:

then ComboFix:

then DDS:

then MwB:

http://forums.spybot.info/attachment.php?attachmentid=5054&stc=1&d=1275513250

After getting a clean run from MwB, DDS:

Is the eviction complete?

Hi,

It's looking better. Please update MBAM and run a quick scan (remove found items). Then post back the report.

It's difficult to get characters on their correct places :)

Are you still noticing any problems? If not, it's time to secure your system to prevent against further intrusions.


THESE STEPS ARE VERY IMPORTANT

Let's reset system restore
Reset and Re-enable your System Restore to remove infected files that have been backed up by Windows. The files in System Restore are protected to prevent any programs changing those files. This is the only way to clean these files: You will lose all previous restore points which are likely to be infected. Please note you need Administrator Access to do clean the restore points.

1. 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.

2. Reboot.

3. 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.
NOTE: only do this ONCE,NOT on a regular basis


Now lets uninstall ComboFix:

Click START then RUN
Now copy-paste Combofix /uninstall in the runbox and click OK



Please download OTC (http://oldtimer.geekstogo.com/OTC.exe) and save it to desktop.

Double-click OTC.exe.
Click the CleanUp! button.
Select Yes when the
Begin cleanup Process?
prompt appears.
If you are prompted to Reboot during the cleanup, select Yes.
The tool will delete itself once it finishes, if not delete it by yourself.


Note: If you receive a warning from your firewall or other security programs regarding OTC attempting to contact the internet, please allow it to do so.



UPDATING WINDOWS AND INTERNET EXPLORER

IMPORTANT: You Need to Update Windows and Internet Explorer to protect your computer from the malware that is around on the Internet. Please go to the windows update site (http://windowsupdate.microsoft.com/) to get the critical updates.

If you are running Microsoft Office, or any portion thereof, go to the Microsoft's Office Update site and make sure you have at least all the critical updates installed (Free) Microsoft Office Update.


Make your Internet Explorer more secure

This can be done by following these simple instructions:
From within Internet Explorer click on the Tools menu and then click on Options.

The following are recommended third party programs that are designed to keep your computer clean. A link as well as a brief description is included with each item.

hosts file:
Every version of windows has a hosts file as part of them. In a very basic sense, they are used to locate webpages. We can customize a hosts file so that it blocks certain webpages. However, it can slow down certain computers. This is why using a hosts file is optional!!
Download it here (http://www.mvps.org/winhelp2002/hosts.htm). Make sure you read the instructions on how to install the hosts file. There is a good tutorial here (http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/forums/tutorial51.html)
If you decide to download the hosts file, the slowdown problems can usually be avoided by following these steps:
Click the start button (at the lower left hand corner of your screen) Click run In the dialog box, type services.msc hit enter, then locate dns client Highlight it, then double-click it. On the dropdown box, change the setting from automatic to manual. Click ok
Run Secunia vulnerability check here (http://secunia.com/vulnerability_scanning/online/) and fix its findings.
Use a Firewall - I can not stress how important it is that you use a Firewall on your computer. Without a firewall your computer is susceptible to being hacked and taken over. Simply using a Firewall in its default configuration can lower your risk greatly. For more info, check this (http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/forums/tutorial60.html) webpage out.
If you don't have a 3rd party firewall or a router behind NAT then I recommend getting one. I recommend either Online Armor Free (http://www.tallemu.com/free-firewall-protection-software.html) or Comodo Firewall Pro (http://www.personalfirewall.comodo.com/download_firewall.html#fw3.0) (If you choose Comodo: Uncheck during installation Install Comodo HopSurf.., Make Comodo my default search provider and Make Comodo Search my homepage and install firewall ONLY!). Both providers have support forums that help with configuration related questions.



Just a final reminder for you. I am trying to stress these two points.
UPDATE UPDATE UPDATE!!! Make sure you do this about every 1-2 weeks.
Make sure all of your security programs are up to date.
Visit Microsoft's Windows Update Site Frequently - It is important that you visit http://www.windowsupdate.com regularly. This will ensure your computer has always the latest security updates available installed on your computer. If there are new updates to install, install them immediately, reboot your computer, and revisit the site until there are no more critical updates.


Once again, please post and tell me how things are going with your system... problems etc.

Have a great day,
Blade :cool:

Hi Blade,

Daily scans with MBAM and/or S&D have been clean.

Although I visit the Windows Update site on a regular basis, I had no idea about the Office Update site. Needless to say, my backlog is considerable. If I only want to install part of the list at a time, is it better to work from the top of the list down or the other direction? Is it the same answer for both update lists?

Thanks as always,

the dumboldboy

Chronological order would probably be better if you want to install those in separate parts.

Hi Blade,

Scans continue to show a clean computer. I finally finished the Windows and Office updates. *whew* I'll initiate the 3rd party applications over the next couple of days and update.

Thanks!

Hi Blade,

I hope your day is going well so far. MBAM on both users came back clean every run so far this week. I have installed the hosts file you recommended and am currently working with Secunia and its recommendations.

(As you may have noticed, my progress has slowed down a little bit. It's not that I've become disinterested in the process! Our 7-year-old granddaughter is staying with us for a couple weeks at a time this summer, and so a bit of my geek time has given way to Boppa time :D: .)

I am most grateful for the coaching: my command of the written word could never fully convey the peace of mind your help has given me.

May your weekend be a good one; I'll check back on Monday.

It's good to have some time off from computer :laugh:

Shall wait for further status update on Monday then. You too have a nice weekend :)

Hi Blade,

Scans continue to come back clean. I am currently working on Secunia's recommendations, which include plenty of updates. I'll keep you posted.

Hi Blade,

I hope you still have a team in the World Cup you are cheering for.

scans continue to show no ill. We had to give our grand-daughter back yesterday :-( , but at least I'll have more time for Secunia, et al.

Yep, Brazil is (hopefully after this evening too) still in :). I just hope referees make better decisions from now on.

Hi Blade,

Scans continue to come back clean.

While following Secunia's to-do list, I have encountered a group of Microsoft update recommendations that I am unable to act upon:

(note: the following were edited for brevity. In the actual scan, the lists of KBs are hyperlinks, and the same link always appeared multiple times in succession. The number of times varied.)

When I click on the links, I am taken to the appropriate knowledge base page, such as http://support.microsoft.com/kb/978542/. The page has a link for obtaining the update. However. that link takes me to http://update.microsoft.com/microsoftupdate, which does not download the corresponding patch.

What to do?

Big Thanks,

It would be recommended to install offered Microsoft related updates via Windows Update (that's listed before Secunia step on the final steps list I gave you).

Hi Blade,

Many thanks for your continued mentoring/coaching. At this point, I have done everything on the list (using Comodo for my firewall) except the patches I mentioned above. I'm thinking the Microsoft Update application thinks those KBs are unnecessary (perhaps their function has been superseded by another KB). Is there a way to confirm that, or should we just take their word for it, or am I missing something altogether? After all, I am...

Hi,

If you've installed all important updates available in Windows Update then it should be fine :)

...scans continue to produce no malfeasance, and I've realized we may very well have reached the point where my virtual training wheels can go in the closet.

In the six weeks or so since you took me under your wing I have received some of the best coaching _of my life_ , regardless of subject matter. I thank you very, Very, VERY much, and hope that Providence repays you and your Karma seven-fold.

:angel:

All the best,
