trying to clean a friends PC

[ken545]

Lets run these through the Avenger Program, if you saved it then disregard the download link

1. Please download The Avenger by Swandog46 to your Desktop.

• Click on Avenger.zip to open the file
• Extract avenger.exe to your desktop

2. Copy all the text contained in the code box below to your Clipboard by highlighting it and pressing (Ctrl+C):

Files to Delete:
C:\dnsbak.reg
C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM32\arpl.exe
C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM32\spoolvs.exe
C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM32\tmp.reg
C:\WINDOWS\system32\xlibgfl254.dll
C:\DOCUMEnts and settings\COLIN wells\APPLICation data\xxx.exe
C:\DOCUMEnts and settings\COLIN wells\APPLICation data\update9999.exe

Note: the above code was created specifically for this user. If you are not this user, do NOT follow these directions as they could damage the workings of your system.

3. Now, start The Avenger program by clicking on its icon on your desktop.

• Under "Script file to execute" choose "Input Script Manually".
• Now click on the Magnifying Glass icon which will open a new window titled "View/edit script"
• Paste the text copied to clipboard into this window by pressing (Ctrl+V).
• Click Done
• Now click on the Green Light to begin execution of the script
• Answer "Yes" twice when prompted.

4. The Avenger will automatically do the following:

• It will Restart your computer. ( In cases where the code to execute contains "Drivers to Unload", The Avenger will actually restart your system twice.)
• On reboot, it will briefly open a black command window on your desktop, this is normal.
• After the restart, it creates a log file that should open with the results of Avenger’s actions. This log file will be located at C:\avenger.txt
• The Avenger will also have backed up all the files, etc., that you asked it to delete, and will have zipped them and moved the zip archives to C:\avenger\backup.zip.

5. Please copy/paste the content of c:\avenger.txt into your reply along with a fresh HJT log by using Add/Reply



Download and Save the Trial of Blacklight to your desktop.

• Download the Blacklight Beta graphical user interface version
• Double-click blbeta.exe
• Then accept the agreement
• Click > scan then > next
• You'll see a list of all items found. There will also be a log on your desktop with the name fsbl.xxxxxxx.log (the xxxxxxx stand for numbers).
• Copy and paste this log in your next reply.
• Don't choose the rename option yet! I want to see the log first, because legitimate items can also be present there, such as "wbemtest.exe"

Let me see the Avenger log and the Blacklight log please

Good job following all these instructions

Blacklight found no hidden files and your HJT log looks fine

How are things running now??

[FAUST]

Just got this msg from my friend

iam not geting any more messages regading being infected.no Win antivirus ads are coming up!

Thanks from my friend & myself I'd spotted the wareout but wouldn't have noticed half the stuff you found (Would've just cleaned HJT and hoped it was OK) so not only have we got my friend's PC clean but I've learnt some stuff 2.

Just hope he manages to stay clean.

[ken545]

Thats great, have him install these free tools. They will help keep him secure, but like the chain is only as strong as the weakest link, have him watch what sites he goes in or he could get whacked again.

Malware Complaints
Are you mad ? I mean really mad, seething mad, so mad your ready to spit, mad that you have taken your hard earned dollars to buy a computer only to have some Miscredents, Dirt Bags and Cyber Criminals install a malicious program on your computer without your knowledge or consent. You can post your complaint at the above site. If you live in the U.S.A. you can also report your grievance to your State Attorney Generals Office and the Federal Trade Commission's Bureau of Consumer Protection.

• How did I get infected in the first place ? Read these links and find out how to prevent getting infected again.
• Tutorial for System Restore <-- Do this first to prevent yourself from being reinfected.
• Tom Coyote
• TonyKlein CastleCops
• Grinler BleepingComputer
• Geeks To Go
• Dslreports

Here are some free programs to install, these are must haves to help keep you secure

• Spybot Search and Destroy 1.4
  Check for Updates/ Immunize and run a Full System Scan on a regular basis.
  
• Spyware Blaster It will prevent most spyware from ever being installed.
  
• Spyware Guard It offers realtime protection from spyware installation attempts.
  
• Win Patrol This program will warn you when any changes are being made to your system and give
  you the option to deny the change.
  
• IE-Spyad
  IE-Spyad places over 4000 web sites and domains in the IE Restricted list which will severely impair attempts to infect your system. It basically prevents any downloads
  (cookies etc) from the sites listed, although you will still be able to connect to the sites.
  
• Firefox 2.0 It has more features and is a lot more secure than IE. It is a very easy and
  painless download and install, it will no way interfere with IE, you can use them both.
  
• Zone Alarm Here is a free Firewall from Zone Labs, I
  wouldn't access the internet without it.

Glad we could help

Safe Surfn
