I have malware "ludupiwi.dll"... maybe others too

[echo76]

I started noticing that I was getting random pop-up ads. I tried running a malware detection program, but it wasn't working, even after several re-installs. It turns out that the malware was deleting the .exe file. With the help of Comodo Proactive Defense mode, I discovered that a program called "ludupiwi.dll" continuously installed global hooks (whatever that means). Another suspicious file called "nijulosa" kept popping up in Comodo. I blocked access to those files, but I don't think that got rid of the malware. I looked in the system32 folder and noticed that there were several similar suspicious .dll files, all with the same date (7/31/2009). I was able to delete most of them, except two: ludupiwi.dll and jiputaru.dll. I also noticed that Windows Security Center, Automatic Updates keeps resetting to "off" after I turn it "on".

Hijack logfile is below. Could you please help me get rid of this annoying malware? Thanks!

Hello echo76 and welcome to the forums here at Spybot S&D.

:welcome:

Download ComboFix from one of these locations:

Link 1
Link 2

* IMPORTANT !!! Save ComboFix.exe to your Desktop

• Disable your AntiVirus and AntiSpyware applications, usually via a right click on the System Tray icon. They may otherwise interfere with our tools. Note: If you are having difficulty properly disabling your protective programs, or are unsure as to what programs need to be disabled, please refer to the information available through this link : How to Disable your Security Programs
  
  
• Double click on ComboFix.exe & follow the prompts.
  
  
• As part of it's process, ComboFix will check to see if the Microsoft Windows Recovery Console is installed. With malware infections being as they are today, it's strongly recommended to have this pre-installed on your machine before doing any malware removal. It will allow you to boot up into a special recovery/repair mode that will allow us to more easily help you should your computer have a problem after an attempted removal of malware.
  
  
• Follow the prompts to allow ComboFix to download and install the Microsoft Windows Recovery Console, and when prompted, agree to the End-User License Agreement to install the Microsoft Windows Recovery Console.

**Please note: If the Microsoft Windows Recovery Console is already installed, ComboFix will continue it's malware removal procedures.

Once the Microsoft Windows Recovery Console is installed using ComboFix, you should see the following message:

Click on Yes, to continue scanning for malware.

When finished, it shall produce a log for you. Please include the C:\ComboFix.txt in your next reply. Please also post an updated HijackThis log and let me know how it's running.

Notes:

1.Do not mouse-click Combofix's window while it is running. That may cause it to stall.
2. ComboFix may reset a number of Internet Explorer's settings, including making I-E the default browser.
3. Combofix prevents autorun of ALL CD, floppy and USB devices to assist with malware removal & increase security. If this is an issue or makes it difficult for you -- please tell your helper.
4. CF disconnects your machine from the internet. The connection is automatically restored before CF completes its run. If CF runs into difficulty and terminates prematurely, the connection can be manually restored by restarting your machine.

Please note: I uninstalled a few unnecessary programs last night and deleted more suspicious files (i.e., .dll files dated 7/31/09 or 8/1/09 with those strange names). Please let me know if there is anything more I need to do. I appreciate your help!

Looking much better. I see you have MalwareBytes installed. Please run it (making sure it's up to date) and post the log if anything is found.

Also, I would like you to run the following scan: Eset Online Scanner
Run with Internet Explorer

• Place a check mark in the box YES, I accept the Terms Of Use
• Click the Start button.
• Now click the Install button, or click the notification bar at the top of the window and choose to install.
• Click Start. The scanner engine will initialize and update.
• Do Not place a check mark in the box beside Remove found threats.
• Click the Scan button. The scan will now run, please be patient.
• When the scan finishes click the Details tab.
• Copy and paste the contents of the C:\ProgramFiles\EsetOnlineScanner\log.txt into your next reply.

Cleanup

If it's running well then I think you're all set.

Uninstall Combofix

• Click START then RUN
• Now type Combofix /Uninstall in the runbox and click OK. Note the space between the X and the U, it needs to be there.

The above procedure will:

• Delete the following: ComboFix and its associated files and folders.
• Reset the clock settings.
• Hide file extensions, if required.
• Hide System/Hidden files, if required.
• Reset System Restore.

Thank you

Comodo is not reporting any more suspicious "hooks", and I don't see any more suspicious .dll files in my system32 folder. So I think I'm all set.

Question: Could manually deleting those .dll files (as I did) have taken care of the malware? I wasn't sure if malware needed to be "uninstalled" like other programs.

Great. Think we got it. Yes, manually deleting them (if they let you) will take care of them. There is typically nothing to "uninstall", and even if there were I wouldn't trust it. The issue is usually being able to remove them, or remove them without them coming back. That's where the unhooking takes place and combofix does a nice job of that. We did some other scans to make sure nothing else was lurking and things looked good. You should be good to go.
