Browser Hijack and Virus

[Off Track]

My PC (with Windows XP) is off the rails!

The past week most Google and Yahoo search results would redirect me to various sites, not the search result site. I used Spybot S&D, MalwareBytes and AVG 8.5, which usually found and quarantined various problems, including WIN32.TDSS.NTF, but they didn't correct the underlying problem. Search results are still redirected. Perhaps related, when I boot up I get a pop-up saying "Your System has no Paging File, or the Paging File is too small."

I downloaded ComboFix (have NOT run it), HiJackThis, AdAware, as well as IE 8 and some Windows patches. I also tried to update my Java, but am not sure where that stands.

NOW, Antivirus Pro windows keep popping up, and I can't launch any of the above programs including HiJackThis. Each time, Windows asks me what program I want to use to open them, instead of launching the program.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!!

Thanks

Hi Off Track

Please rename HijackThis.exe and let me if it runs now

Thanks Shaba.

Yes renaming HFT seems to have worked. Here is the log file.

I downloaded Gmer and extracted the files. When I try to open it, I get the windows message asking what program I want to use to open Gmer.exe.

I tried renaming it, but got the same message.

How do I get Gmer to run?

Thanks.

Please then attempt to run combofix next.

Shaba:

I downloaded the file mentioned to two places, and reran combofix. Bottom line, I saw the same error messages in all the same places, as mentioned the last time we ran it.

[Off Track]

Shaba:

I reviewed AVG automatic scan results for the last couple of days, and found a few things AVG found but could not heal. AVG says the following are "virus identified Packed.Hidden"

\\?\globalroot\systemroot\system32\vsfocetkopabwq.dll

and

c:\Window\Explorer.exe (1960)

Other viruses were automatically removed.

[Off Track]

Today's AVG scan found two "infections" AVG could not heal. They are the same two from the other days this week (except last night's clean scan). AVG says the following are "virus identified Packed.Hidden"

\\?\globalroot\systemroot\system32\vsfocetkopabwq.dll

and

c:\Window\Explorer.exe (3128)

I ran a trial google search, and the second result I tried to go to started to redirect and a received an AVG threat warning.

(I still get the paging file error as well every time I boot up.)

[Shaba]

Explorer.exe is false positive; another one isn't.

Open notepad and copy/paste the text in the codebox below into it:

File::
C:\windows\system32\vsfocetkopabwq.dll

Save this as "CFScript"

Then drag the CFScript into ComboFix.exe as you see in the screenshot below.



This will start ComboFix again. After reboot, (in case it asks to reboot), post the contents of Combofix.txt in your next reply together with a new HijackThis log.

Combofix should never take more that 20 minutes including the reboot if malware is detected.
If it does, open Task Manager then Processes tab (press ctrl, alt and del at the same time) and end any processes of findstr, find, sed or swreg, then combofix should continue.
If that happened we want to know, and also what process you had to end.
