Downloader virus help removing an infected .dll

[Conny]

Norton Anti-virus continues to display a pop-up indicating that a downloader virus has been found, but Norton cannot remove the infected file. I've tried deleting it in safe mode and at the dos prompt, but message says "being used by another program", "file not accessible". I've read other very similar posts and I went ahead and created a hijackthis log:

File infected is: C:\windows\system32\encdit.dll

Thank you for any help that you can provide:

HI

Please download and run these :-

Download CCleaner from :-

http://www.filehippo.com/download_ccleaner/ (click the download tab)

During the installation be sure to UN-check the box for "Ccleaner Yahoo Toolbar" unless you want it.

doubleclick the ccsetup.exe file and install the program...

After installing, go to Start > programs > CCleaner > Options > Advanced > UNCHECK "Only delete files in Windows Temp folder older than 48 hours"

Make sure the "windows" tab is selected

Under "internet explorer" tick...

Temporary internet files
Cookies* > see Note below
History
Recently typed URL's (leave this unticked if you DON'T want to clear the drop down list in the address window of IE)
Delete index.dat files
Last download location
Autocomplete form history


under "Windows explorer" these are optional, but you can safely tick them all if you wish, they are only "most recently used lists"

Other explorer MRU's (leave this unticked if you DON'T want to clear lists such as the start\run list)

under "System"

Tick ALL these ...


under "Advanced"

no need to tick any of these (but you can if you want, and realise what they do)


Applications tab...

These will mostly clean out old log files for these applications...

Clean:- (if you use them)

Firefox/Mozilla (optional - leave the cookies - see note)
Opera
Sun Java
ZoneAlarm
...
Personally I clean everything in the applications tab... but you tick what you want...

Note: *If there are any cookies you want to keep (if you remove the cookie for a site you require a password for, you will need to re-enter your passward when you next visit that site) ... click options > cookies > then keep the cookies you want.

click "analyse" if you want to see a list of what is going to be removed, before it is removed.

Or

click "run cleaner" to let it get on with it's work... clicking this will result in the following pop-up

"This process will permanently delete files from your system. Are you sure you wish to proceed?"

click OK.

THEN........

Download ewido security suite (http://www.ewido.net/en/download/)install, update and run it.

Please set up as :-

1. When installing, under "Additional Options" uncheck "Install background guard" and "Install scan via context menu".

2. Run Ewido --- When you run it for the first time, you may get a warning "Database could not be found!". Click OK. We will fix this in a moment.

3. From the main ewido screen, click on update in the left menu, then click the Start update button.

4. After the update finishes (the status bar at the bottom will display "Update successful")

5. You may need to manually update the definitions which you can get HERE (http://www.ewido.net/en/download/updates/)

6. Exit Ewido. DO NOT scan yet.

Boot into safemode...and scan with Ewido

7. Click on the Scanner button in the left menu, then click on Complete System Scan. This scan can take quite a while to run.

8. If ewido finds anything, it will pop up a notification. We have been finding some cases of false positives with the new version of Ewido, so we need to step through the fixes one-by-one. If Ewido finds something that you KNOW is legitimate (for example, parts of AVG Antivirus, AOL pcAnywhere and the game "Risk" have been flagged), select "none" as the action. DO NOT check "Perform action with all infections". If you are unsure of an entry, select "none" for the time being. I'll see that in the log you will post later and let you know if ewido needs to be run again.

9. Once the ewido scan has completed, there will be a button located on the bottom of the screen called Save report.

Important - You need to click "Save report" and Save it to your desktop, or you wont have a log

reboot

post a new hijackthis log + the ewido log

cheers

Hi Conny

Sorry for the late reply ... I had an accident at work on 2006-07-27 (the day of your last post) & have only just been able to get back on-line...

Your problem... "Norton Anti-virus continues to display a pop-up indicating that a downloader virus has been found, but Norton cannot remove the infected file. I've tried deleting it in safe mode and at the dos prompt, but message says "being used by another program", "file not accessible". I've read other very similar posts and I went ahead and created a hijackthis log:

File infected is: C:\windows\system32\encdit.dll"

This file is registered as BHO, that's why Norton had trouble deleting it...

Ewido found the file ...

C:\WINDOWS\system32\encdit.dll -> Downloader.ConHook.aa : No action taken.
[220] C:\WINDOWS\system32\encdit.dll -> Downloader.ConHook.aa : No action taken.
[832] C:\WINDOWS\system32\encdit.dll -> Downloader.ConHook.aa : No action taken.

There are several ways to delete this ...

Boot to safemode run ewido again and let it delete all it finds...

Then run hijackthis and fix these entries (if still found )

O2 - BHO: (no name) - {f6bd6f62-e896-47f7-94cf-85bafac4dc4a} - C:\WINDOWS\system32\encdit.dll (file missing)
O20 - Winlogon Notify: encdit - C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM32\encdit.dll (file missing)

notice the entries should now say (file missing)

Reboot, run hijackthis again and confirm the entries are no longer found by hijackthis...

Then run Norton again and confirm the problem is resolved.

cheers
