Smitfraud888 and "Virtumonde"

Ervonix · Jun 26, 2007

Several weeks ago Spybot Search & Destroy picked up Smitfraud888. Following this my anti-virus (CA) and Windows Defender, picked both Smitfraud and Virtumonde. I attempted to remove them and until recently, the symptoms were undr control and mostly non-existent. However, recently the symptoms have come back and the files have been re-detected, not to mention almost none of my scanners and removal tools are operaintg I already went through the collecting of log files and will post them in a few lines;however, I thought it might be important to note that in recent times what I thought was a near controlled problem is beginning to spin out of control. Spybot and Windows Defender, along with many other applications, are beginning to malfunction. Spybot no longer even scans, it pops up with "nothing found" the second I press look for problems button. Internet explorer is useless and now even Firefox is beginning to crash randomly. Here are the logs that the forum requested I include when seeking help, I hope that my computer can be saved from total catastrophe.

These were the results following the eTrust Antivirus Scanner

Scan Results: 70195 files scanned. 16 viruses were detected.

Before closing I thought a list of the symptoms might help (whether or not it will)
-exploere.exe closes and restarts every few minutes
-Spbot Search & Destroy does not scan in normal Windows and will no longer function when Windows is in safe mode
-Internet Exploere is inoperable; however, prior to it's inoperability I was being bombarded with pop-ups for Winfix 2007
-Firefox is randomly crashing
-I found over 500 new random dll's in System 32 that did not exist prior to my infection they have allbeen created with in one hour of one another approximately one week ago.
-Lavasoft Ad-Aware cannot find the infection
-Windows Defender and Spybot couldn't remove any infections prior to their now inoperable states
-CA can detect , but not delete or properly clean the infected files

I hope that should be enough to go off of to start. I could really use some help, I'm usually well versed and protected fom this type of things (or so I thought) but since I;ve never been infected before, I'm not exactly sure how to go about fixing this. I woud really appreciate the help.

Go to where your HijackThis is and Right Click on HijackThis.exe, select Cut, then open the new folder you just created (HJT) Right Click in the folder and select paste.

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

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.

Comodo BOCLEAN <= Stop identity thieves from getting personal information. Instantly detects well over 1,000,000 unique, variant and repack malware in total. And it's free.
Download Adaware
Adaware is a free program. It scans for known spyware on your computer. These scans should be run at least once every two weeks.
The program is available for download here
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
Download iespyad
It puts many bad webpages on your restricted zones list. This means that you can still view the
bad
webpages, but the webpages cannot do certain things (such as use javascripts and cookies).
If you need help understanding how it works, there is a tutorial here
Download it here
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

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.
Run the spybot and adaware regularly. (Once or twice a week minimum.)
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
