I get popups and Trojans, AVG and S&B dn't remove them, or they reappear

[ruckus]

Hi,
Everything seems to run much better. Avg isn't finding as much crap as it was. I do seem to have picked something else up
I have banned all use of this PC except by myself until these issues are resolved.
Now in the system tray I have a little red sheild that alternates to a question mark and gives a system warning for spyware... suprise, suprise...
It links to 'spycrush'.com and spybot, avg, combofix don't fix it!! grrrr!
Here is my latest Hijack Log after having followed all your steps including updating Java

Also, everytime reboot my windows firewall turns itself off on restart.

[ruckus]

I was just reading some other threads and one of your team has mentioned that installing service pack 2 while infected is a BAD IDEA!!.. SHIT!!
All that crap that you discovered on my PC was preventing windows updates from being D/L'ed, hence my system being so far behind.
Upon removal of some of this spyware, the first thing my windows did was update itself, with lots of updates including SP2...
I get the feeling my troubles are not nearly over and I just ask for you to keep this in mind as you so kindly guide me towards the peacefulness of a clean PC.
I would also like to say that I have never, ever ended up with my PC in such a bad state of infection... is Spybot S&D + AVG free Edition enough to keep my PC safe once you have helped me clean it?

[ruckus]

Should I remove it?

c:\sccfg.sys,Hidden File

[miekiemoes]

Hi,

Have you been trying to download and install a codec to watch a video? Because that's how you got infected..

Do next please..

* Please download SmitfraudFix (by S!Ri)

* Reboot into Safe Mode`: ( without networking support !)
°To get into the Safe mode as the computer is booting press and hold your "F8 Key". Use your arrow keys to move to "Safe Mode" and press your Enter key.

* Doubleclick SmitFraudFix to start the tool.
Select option #2 - Clean by typing 2 and press "Enter" to delete infected files.

(Warning : running option #2 will set your desktop background blank again. But you can reapply your desktop background again afterwards

You will be prompted : "Registry cleaning - Do you want to clean the registry ?"; answer "Yes" by typing Y and press "Enter" in order to remove the Desktop background and clean registry keys associated with the infection.

The tool will now check if wininet.dll is infected. You may be prompted to replace the infected file (if found); answer "Yes" by typing Y and press "Enter".

The tool may need to restart your computer to finish the cleaning process; if it doesn't, please restart it into Normal Windows.
A text file will appear onscreen, with results from the cleaning process.

Post the log from smitfraudfix in your next reply together with a new hijackthislog.
The report can also be found at the root of the system drive, usually at C:\rapport.txt

c:\sccfg.sys is a part of FolderLock.

[ruckus]

I'm sure it's my flatmates hitting the porn sites, can I do anything to stop them d/l'ing? or is it easier just to not let them use the PC? I really need to let them check their emails THATS ALL!!
Doin the smitfraud thing now, do u want a hijack log after that?

[ruckus]

I guess you are starting to hate me by now!
Ran SmitfraudFix, that stooopid little system warning is still in the task bar 'Spycrush'. Here's the latest Hijack log anyways...

[miekiemoes]

I am sorry to hear that it's because of your flatmates that this computer gets infected all the time. Best what you can do here is talk to them, explain the dangers of the internet and create another useraccount with restricted rights and passwordprotect your useraccount.
Because, as you said, they mainly want to read their mails.
Read here about useraccounts and how to create them:
http://www.microsoft.com/windowsxp/u.../accounts.mspx

But we have to get rid of malware first, so perform my steps and yes, post a new HijackThislog afterwards as resquested

Edit - never mind I see you already posted the logs. Gimme a minute to analyze them.

[miekiemoes]

Do you have the log from Smitfraudfix? because that log is important..
It's on your C:\ with the name rapport.txt

Also, check and fix next entry in HijackThis:

O3 - Toolbar: Protection Bar - {DF4E7A0C-E233-4906-B4C1-A404356541FF} - C:\Program Files\Video ActiveX Access\iesbpl.dll (file missing)
O4 - HKCU\..\Run: [BitTorrent] "C:\Program Files\BitTorrent\bittorrent.exe" --force_start_minimized

This because I do NOT recommend p2p programs starting up with Windows.

I didn't update smitfraudfix last time before the scan

Do you think this PC might be nearly clean? I don't have any idea but you seem to be very schooled up so I guess you will know... also, do you think I had or have anything really bad like these 'backdoor trojans' I've heard about...the ones where you can never really trust your PC again unless you reformatt?
......and, why does the firewall turn off and the pc tells me I have no antivirus when AVG shows in the system tray?

[ruckus]

I just sent a big thankyou to yourself and this site for all your patience and helpfullness.... I think the whole world should know how awesome you are..(and the site). I want to donate but I obviously want to make sure my PC is safe and protected before I type in my C/C numbers!!
And I told them they have to buy you a coffee, or, hot chocolate or whatever k?
