    Default No internet, restricted access

    On another computer, 2000 Pro, SP4, I have lost internet access and both AVG and ZoneLabs will not start. Also I am unable to move or copy files to on the computer and many folders, when viewed through Windows Explorer appear empty, though using the command prompt (cmd) I can still see the files.

    Spybot has removed some malware, but searching with HJT, after renaming it to get it to work, there is obviously still something bad there. Run out of ideas how to clean the rest off.

    HJT log to follow below.

    Thanks,
    Steve

    One or more of the identified infections is a backdoor trojan.

    This allows hackers to remotely control your computer, steal critical system information and Download and Execute files

    I would counsel you to disconnect this PC from the Internet immediately. If you do any banking or other financial transactions on the PC or if it should contain any other sensitive information, please get to a known clean computer and change all passwords where applicable, and it would be wise to contact those same financial institutions to apprise them of your situation.

    Though the Trojan has been identified and can be killed, because of it's backdoor functionality, your PC is very likely compromised and there is no way to be sure your computer can ever again be trusted. Many experts in the security community believe that once infected with this type of Trojan, the best course of action would be a reformat and reinstall of the OS. Please read these for more information:

    How Do I Handle Possible Identify Theft, Internet Fraud and CC Fraud?
    When Should I Format, How Should I Reinstall

    However, if you do not have the resources to reinstall your computer and would like me to attempt to clean it, I will be happy to do so.
    Should you have any questions, please feel free to ask.

    Please let us know what you have decided to do in your next post.

    Hi Blade,

    thanks for your response, I have chosen to re-format the disk and re-install a OS.
