I need help! My pc has started displaying pop-ups which are posing as Windows informing me of security threats and prompting me to download supposed cures (I’ve never clicked ‘ok’ on any of these, as it’s evidently fake), and when I’m connected to the internet, both the pc and the internet connection are slowed down loads and I’m bombarded with pop-ups. The malware has also installed a security toolbar in Internet Explorer. I have Spybot S&D Teatimer running, and there's a constant stream of notifications telling me that BHO's and Winlogon Notifiers are trying to install themselves.
I've tried to get rid of it on my own, but as I can't get rid of everything, as soon as I connect to the internet everything comes back. What I've tried so far:
* I’ve run Spybot S&D several times, and despite numerous attempts to fix them, Virtumonde or Virtumonde.Generic always turn up in the scan.
* I’ve run Trojan Remover, and it removes various .dll & .ini files (different, seemingly randomly named files everytime). The 3 files that it has never been able to remove (they either don't get deleted, or if manually deleted they reappear of their own accord) are:
C:\WINDOWS\system32\mllmj.dll (Adware.Virtumonde)
C:\WINDOWS\system32\jmllm.ini (Adware.Virtumonde)
C:\WINDOWS\system32\jmllm.bak2 (Adware.Virtumonde)
* Ad-Aware 2007 spotted (and fixed) Win32.TrojanDownloader.Zlob, but it comes back when I connect to the internet
* I tried VundoFix to get rid of Virtumonde & it spotted nothing. VirtumundoBeGone deletes a randomly named .dll (a different one everytime I connect to the internet), but can't get rid of:
C:\WINDOWS\system32\mllmj.dll
The Kaspersky scan log is too long to post here, so I've attached it.
The HJT log follows:
