Have I done something wrong?

Why are some posters helped and others ignored?

I really am desperate to get rid of vundo could someone please help?
 
hi,

sorry for delay, no shortage of posters. lets run vundofix first;

download and run vundofix.exe:

http://www.atribune.org/ccount/click.php?id=4

* Double-click VundoFix.exe to run it.
* Click the Scan for Vundo button.
* Once it's done scanning, click the Remove Vundo button.
* You will receive a prompt asking if you want to remove the files, click YES
* Once you click yes, your desktop will go blank as it starts removing Vundo.
* When completed, it will prompt that it will reboot your computer, click OK.
* Please post the contents of C:\vundofix.txt and a new HiJackThis log.

Note: It is possible that VundoFix encountered a file it could not remove.
In this case, VundoFix will run on reboot, simply follow the above instructions starting from "Click the Scan for Vundo button." when VundoFix appears at reboot.
 
Thanks so much for getting to me, your efforts are very much appreciated.

I ran the vundo and here is the hijack this log

hi,

ok thanks, log looks ok--maybe one too many anti-malware apps.
what about vundofix? can you post the log.
 
Hi

Sorry I forgot to post the vundo log, I've run it again without anything needed to be fixed.


Virtumonde.dll

seems to be the major problem now, I find I cannot search much of the time, visit certain websites or download things.
 
hi,

thanks for the info, another download to get and run:

Download Combofix from one of these links and save it to your Desktop:

http://subs.geekstogo.com/ComboFix.exe
http://download.bleepingcomputer.com/sUBs/ComboFix.exe


Doubleclick the combofix icon and follow the prompts. When its finished it will generate a log. Please post the log in your next reply.

Note: Do not mouse click combofix's window while it's running. That may cause it to stall or freeze.
 
hi,

hi Brodie100,

looks good. please repeat the malwarebytes scan. and post anew hjt log. hows it looking on your end now?
 
hi,

What seems to be happening is the computer seems fine for a short time and then I cannot search and even clicking on links I do not get a response most of the time, I cannot download programs and then later it seems a bit better.

It is as if my protection is allowing things past them to stop me doing things or it is letting another site know I'm online and that stops me using my computer properly if that makes sense? that is what it feels like anyway.

I'll do the malwarebytes scan, btw on the combofix my bitdefender picked up something which said "EICAR this is not a virus", I didn't take any action should I restore it now?

And I've just been doing a bitdefender scan should I post that? Or just Malwarebytes?
 
Did i download these with the combofix?

hi,

thanks for the info. NirCmdC.cfexe is a component of combofix.

you can post the malwarebytes scan please.once it looks good we can attempt to address the other issues which may not be malware related.

hi,

ok good and your welcome. you have to many anti-malware apps. more dosnt increase your protection, they only overlap in what they do and if you have more than one real-time protection running (not all anti-malware have this)it can chew up system resources.

you have or had?

ad aware
antimalwarebytes
a squared
avg antispyware
spy sweeper
spyware doctor

you should remove some of these via the add/remove programs panel. Personally i think two is plenty.
reboot computer after the uninstalls and please post a final hjt log.

shelf life
 
Hi, yes please tell me which you think are the best, I have found different ones find different things.

BTW what should I do with the objects my bitdefender has blocked as virus's and backdoor objects?

hi Brodie100,

you can remove combofix like this:

start>run and type in combofix /u
click ok
note: there is a space after the x and before the /

system restore:
One of the features of Windows ME,XP and Vista is the System Restore option, however if malware infects a computer it is possible that the malware could be backed up in the System Restore folder. Therefore, clearing the restore points is a good idea after malware is removed.

To reset your restore points, please note that you will need to log into your computer with an account which has full administrator access. You will know if the account has administrator access because you will be able to see the System Restore tab. If the tab is missing, you are logged in under a limited account.

(winXP)

1. Turn off System Restore. (deletes old possibly infected restore point)
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.(new restore points on a clean system)
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, then reboot
---------------------------------------------------
what should I do with the objects my bitdefender has blocked as virus's and backdoor objects?
Click to expand...

there must be some way to empty/delete whats in quarantine, poke around the interface.

i would keep spybot and malwarebytes, these are free, so are some of the others you have. if you paid for one or more keep them and remove malwarebytes and spybot.

another thing:
Vulnerabilities/exploits in versions of Sun Java may be responsible for some malware installs via your browser.

It is important to keep Sun Java up to date and also to remove older versions which may have vulnerabilites/exploits that can be taken advantage of to possibly introduce malware via your browser.

* 1. Uninstall old versions of Sun Java via Add/Remove Programs.
* 2. Click the Remove or Change/Remove button
* 3. Reboot your PC if prompted.

My Top Ten
The Short Version:

1) Keep your OS, browser and software up to date.
2) Know what you are installing to your computer. Do you trust the source?
3) Install, keep updated: antivirus and one or two anti-malware applications.
4) Dont click on adds/pop ups or offers from websites to install software.
5) Dont click on offers to "scan" your computer.
6) Dont click on links or install files you receive via E-Mail, IM, Chat Rooms or Social Sites. Do you trust the source?
7) Set up and use limited accounts rather than administrator accounts.
8) Consider using an alternate browser and E-mail client.
9) Install and understand the limitations of a third party software firewall.
10) If your habits include warez, cracks/keygens, P2P or visting adult sites you are much more likely to encounter malicious code. Do you trust the source?
