I've read the "before you post" so I think I'm doing this right. I've seen several other threads for this baddie but I assume the fix could be different for any given infection? Spybot S&D keeps detecting this trojan, even after I tell it to fix it. Anyway, here's my hjt log.

  • Please post contents of that file & a fresh hjt log in your next reply.

Are you using a router to connect internet? If you're login to it and check its DNS server IP addresses.
 
Thank you for your reply. I have done what you said, except for logging in to the router which I will do right away. During the scan my AVG antivirus kept popping up saying it detected a "Trojan horse PSW.Generic6.AQPD". Perhaps I should have had AVG turned off while running the Malwarebytes scan, I'm not sure. Anyway here are the logs

Hi

Have you checked DNS server addresses yet? :)


Please visit this webpage for download links, and instructions for running ComboFix tool:

http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/combofix/how-to-use-combofix

Please ensure you read this guide carefully and install the Recovery Console first.

The Windows Recovery Console will allow you to boot up into a special recovery (repair) mode. This allows us to more easily help you should your computer have a problem after an attempted removal of malware. It is a simple procedure that will only take a few moments of your time.

Once installed, you should see a blue screen prompt that says:

The Recovery Console was successfully installed.

Please continue as follows:

  1. Close/disable all anti virus and anti malware programs so they do not interfere with the running of ComboFix, link
    Remember to re-enable them afterwards.

  2. Click Yes to allow ComboFix to continue scanning for malware.

When the tool is finished, it will produce a report for you.

Please include the following reports for further review, and so we may continue cleansing the system:

C:\ComboFix.txt
New HijackThis log.

A word of warning: Neither I nor sUBs are responsible for any damage you may have caused your machine by running ComboFix. This tool is not a toy and not for everyday use.
 
Ok, I got the DNS addresses fixed. Had to go on a major search mission for the instrucion manual for the router, since I rarely have to go there. That's unnerving that this thing could make changes to my router as well. Does that mean it could possibly affect other computers on my home LAN also?

logs as instructed:

Does that mean it could possibly affect other computers on my home LAN also?

Hi

If those computers use same router then they would be affected but not infected. Only the traffic got routed thru bad DNS servers. When you have stronger password set than the default one the router you should be safer in the future.


Start hjt, do a system scan, check (if found):
R0 - HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main,Local Page = C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM\blank.htm

Close browsers and fix checked.



Uninstall old Adobe Reader versions and get the latest one here or get Foxit Reader here.


Uninstall old Java versions and get Java 6 Update 7 here.


Download ATF (Atribune Temp File) Cleaner© by Atribune to your desktop.

Double-click ATF Cleaner.exe to open it

Under Main choose:
Windows Temp
Current User Temp
All Users Temp
Cookies
Temporary Internet Files
Prefetch
Java Cache
*The other boxes are optional*
Then click the Empty Selected button.

If you use Firefox:
Click Firefox at the top and choose: Select All
Click the Empty Selected button.
NOTE: If you would like to keep your saved passwords, please click NO at the prompt.

If you use Opera:
Click Opera at the top and choose: Select All
Click the Empty Selected button.
NOTE: If you would like to keep your saved passwords, please click NO at the prompt.

Click Exit on the Main menu to close the program.


Please run an online scan with Kaspersky Online Scanner as instructed in the screenshot here.


Post back its report & a fresh hjt log.
 
I did change the router password while I was in there.

Removed R0 - HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main,Local Page = C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM\blank.htm with hjt.

Removed and updated Adobe and Java.

I downloaded ATF Cleaner and did the remove on the Main screen as you said.
However, the menubar items for Firefox and Opera are greyed out and can't be selected. I use both at various times. I tried a reboot, no help. Tried re-downloading ATF Cleaner, no change.

Ran the Kaspersky scan. Thought it would never finish.

However, the menubar items for Firefox and Opera are greyed out and can't be selected. I use both at various times. I tried a reboot, no help. Tried re-downloading ATF Cleaner, no change.
Click to expand...
Of some reason those options are occasionally greyed out as you said though the correspondent program(s) would be installed. No need to worry about that :)

Well congrats, it appears your system is all clean Are you still noticing any problems? If not, it's time to secure your system to prevent against further intrusions.


THESE STEPS ARE VERY IMPORTANT

Let's reset system restore
Reset and Re-enable your System Restore to remove infected files that have been backed up by Windows. The files in System Restore are protected to prevent any programs changing those files. This is the only way to clean these files: You will lose all previous restore points which are likely to be infected. Please note you need Administrator Access to do clean the restore points.

1. Turn off System Restore.
On the Desktop, right-click My Computer.
Click Properties.
Click the System Restore tab.
Check Turn off System Restore.
Click Apply, and then click OK.

2. Reboot.

3. Turn ON System Restore.
On the Desktop, right-click My Computer.
Click Properties.
Click the System Restore tab.
UN-Check *Turn off System Restore*.
Click Apply, and then click OK.
NOTE: only do this ONCE,NOT on a regular basis




Now lets uninstall ComboFix:
  • Click START then RUN
  • Now type Combofix /u in the runbox and click OK


UPDATING WINDOWS AND INTERNET EXPLORER

IMPORTANT: You Need to Update Windows and Internet Explorer to protect your computer from the malware that is around on the Internet. Please go to the windows update site to get the critical updates.

If you are running Microsoft Office, or any portion thereof, go to the Microsoft's Office Update site and make sure you have at least all the critical updates installed (Free) Microsoft Office Update.


Make your Internet Explorer more secure

This can be done by following these simple instructions:
From within Internet Explorer click on the Tools menu and then click on Options.
Click once on the Security tab
Click once on the Internet icon so it becomes highlighted.
Click once on the Custom Level button.
Change the Download signed ActiveX controls to Prompt
Change the Download unsigned ActiveX controls to Disable
Change the Initialize and script ActiveX controls not marked as safe to Disable
Change the Installation of desktop items to Prompt
Change the Launching programs and files in an IFRAME to Prompt
Change the Navigate sub-frames across different domains to Prompt
When all these settings have been made, click on the OK button.
If it prompts you as to whether or not you want to save the settings, press the Yes button.
Next press the Apply button and then the OK to exit the Internet Properties page.



The following are recommended third party programs that are designed to keep your computer clean. A link as well as a brief description is included with each item.

  • Download SpywareBlaster
    Spyware blaster is a program that stops known malicious activex controls from installing on your computer. It works by changing settings in your registry. It makes
    kill bits
    in the registry, so that certain activex controls can't install.
    If you don't know what activex controls are, see here
    You can download SpywareBlaster here here
    SpywareBlaster tutorial
  • hosts file:
    • Every version of windows has a hosts file as part of them.
    • In a very basic sense, they are used to locate webpages.
    • We can customize a hosts file so that it blocks certain webpages.
    • However, it can slow down certain computers.
    • This is why using a hosts file is optional!!
    Download it here. Make sure you read the instructions on how to install the hosts file. There is a good tutorial here
    If you decide to download the hosts file, the slowdown problems can usually be avoided by following these steps:
    1. [*]Click the start button (at the lower left hand corner of your screen) [*]Click run [*]In the dialog box, type services.msc [*]hit enter, then locate dns client [*]Highlight it, then double-click it. [*]On the dropdown box, change the setting from automatic to manual. [*]Click ok

  • Use a Firewall - I can not stress how important it is that you use a Firewall on your computer. Without a firewall your computer is susceptible to being hacked and taken over. Simply using a Firewall in its default configuration can lower your risk greatly. For more info, check this webpage out.
    If you don't have a 3rd party firewall I recommend either Online Armor Free or Comodo Firewall Pro (If you choose Comodo: Uncheck during installation "Install Comodo SafeSurf..", Make Comodo my default search provider" and "Make Comodo Search my homepage" and install firewall ONLY!).


Just a final reminder for you. I am trying to stress these two points.
UPDATE UPDATE UPDATE!!! Make sure you do this about every 1-2 weeks.
Make sure all of your security programs are up to date.
Visit Microsoft's Windows Update Site Frequently - It is important that you visit http://www.windowsupdate.com regularly. This will ensure your computer has always the latest security updates available installed on your computer. If there are new updates to install, install them immediately, reboot your computer, and revisit the site until there are no more critical updates.



Once again, please post and tell me how things are going with your system... problems etc.

Have a great day,
Blade :cool:
 
Thank you so much Blade for helping me get my computer back to right.
I appreciate it very much. I followed your instructions in the last post and everything seems ok. Things are a bit slow at times but I know that's because I don't have enough memory in this machine. I have windows on auto-update does that work as well? I don't need to go to the Microsoft site repeatedly in that case do I? As for firewall.. is Windows built-in firewall enough? I'm afraid one more thing running in the background will slow this down more. I didn't download the hosts file since you said that was optional.

I assume Spyware Blaster will run at startup in the background from now on or is that not right? Is there any point to Spybot S&D with all these other malware scanners and removal tools? Should I keep it around just in case?

Thanks again for your help. You do great work.
 
I have windows on auto-update does that work as well?
Click to expand...
Yes, it does.

As for firewall.. is Windows built-in firewall enough?
Click to expand...
XP's inbuilt firewall is not enough since it doesn't monitor outgoing traffic.


I assume Spyware Blaster will run at startup in the background from now on or is that not right?
Click to expand...
Yes, SpywareBlaster will run there without user interaction.

Is there any point to Spybot S&D with all these other malware scanners and removal tools? Should I keep it around just in case?
Click to expand...
Yes, it's point to have Spybot installed. I would had recommended it if you hadn't had it already :)


Some tips for making system faster can be read here :)
