Services and Controller app has encountered a problem and needs to close

So it should be fine.

Then we use combofix:

  • Please open Notepad (Start -> Run -> type notepad in the Open field -> OK) and copy and paste the text present inside the code box below:

    Code:
    SRPeek::
    wscntfy.exe
  • Save this as CFScript.txt and change the "Save as type" to "All Files" and place it on your desktop.

    CFScriptB-4.gif

  • Referring to the screenshot above, drag CFScript.txt into ComboFix.exe.
  • ComboFix will now run a scan on your system. It may reboot your system when it finishes. This is normal.
  • When finished, it shall produce a log for you. Copy and paste the contents of the log in your next reply.
CAUTION: Do not mouse-click ComboFix's window while it is running. That may cause it to stall.
 
If so, we continue with this:

Please go to Kaspersky website and perform an online antivirus scan.

  1. Read through the requirements and privacy statement and click on Accept button.
  2. It will start downloading and installing the scanner and virus definitions. You will be prompted to install an application from Kaspersky. Click Run.
  3. When the downloads have finished, click on Settings.
  4. Make sure these boxes are checked (ticked). If they are not, please tick them and click on the Save button:
    • Spyware, Adware, Dialers, and other potentially dangerous programs
      Archives
  5. Click on My Computer under Scan.
  6. Once the scan is complete, it will display the results. Click on View Scan Report.
  7. You will see a list of infected items there. Click on Save Report As....
  8. Save this report to a convenient place. Change the Files of type to Text file (.txt) before clicking on the Save button.
  9. Please post this log in your next reply along with a fresh HijackThis log.
 
Online scan did not finish, browser crashed each time it got to 10,000 objects scanned.

During that time, no infections to be found.


On the other hand, the problem "seems" to be randomly fixed.
 
I'm happy with services.exe not crashing, because now i can just finish one of my thousand projects.

So, ready for final instructions!
 
OK, then please post a fresh HijackThis log and I will post you those instructions :)

Thank you very much for your time, Shaba. :thanks:
 
Looks like we are not done.

Some windows services are borked.

Please download the Registry Search tool by clicking on the "hard drive" icon halfway down this page:
http://www.billsway.com/vbspage/
Save it to the desktop and run it. If you get an alert from your antivirus about scripting, choose to allow the script to run. Search for fystemroot and click OK. Post the logfile from the tool here for me.
 
Please go to start - run - services.msc - ok

Find Background Intelligent Transfer Service and tell me what it says in Path to executable.
 
Yes but it has been changed by malware.

Please do another search for %fystemroot% and post back results.
 
Well there should be hits.

Download RegSearch by Bobbi Flekman.
  • Create a folder in your C: drive C:\Regsearch, and extract all the files from the zip archive into that folder.
  • Double click regsearch.exe to launch the programme.
  • Copy/Paste the following into the Search Box %fystemroot%
  • Click OK.
Regsearch will now search your Registry for the required strings, when it is finished it will open a Notepad file RegSearch.txt, saved to the Regsearch folder.

Copy/Paste that file into your next post.

This is the log you asked for.

So, what next?
