Why does Malware not show up as process?

On my machine, Spybot's Teatimer rejects a registry change about once every second from a program called "Winsync". Location is shown as "C:\Windows\ ppipay.exe reg_r" (end overruns space in Teatimer box). However there is no such file as "ppipay" or "winsync" found on my machine when searching for them.
Also, if this cryptic process is running and trying to write to the registry then why does it not show up in the Task Manager? What does show up is something called "raswex". If I kill this process it comes back within seconds. A Google (and Microsoft Knowledge Base) search on the terms "raswex" and "ppipay" shows nothing found. Winsync shows up as a valid process name but it may be hijacked by Malware which seems to be the case I have.
Hijack-This shows these in a scan but "Fixing" them only works for a few seconds and then they are back.
So to summarize my questions: Why does the name shown in the Spybot box not show up in the list of running processes in the Task Manager?
Also, has anyone ever heard of raswex or ppipay?
I'd like to fix the problem myself if I could understand it better. Although we are all extremely greatful for the expert moderators on this forum I would hope they would spread the knowledge about what is going on inside the Malware battle so their work load would be eased.
PS - if none of this makes sense and you just want me to post a Hijack log then please tell me.
Thank you, much.

Hi williad

That sounds like qoologic


Please disable SpybotSD TeaTimer
To disable SpybotSD TeaTimer:
Open Spybot and click on Mode and check Advanced Mode
Check yes to next window.
Click on Tools in bottom left hand corner.
Click on Resident icon and Uncheck the box next to Teatimer.
"resident tea timer"protection of all-over system settings) active"
Close SpyBot.
Dont turn it back un untill instructed

Please go here and follow instructions.
Before you post a log
http://forums.spybot.info/showthread.php?t=288
Post the hjt log here in this thread.
Someone will then take a look at the system and advise you.
 
Thanks for suggesting a good virus scan first. Because I'm on dialup and never open email attatchments I wrongly assumed that I wouldn't be infected. The last virus scan I did months ago showed nothing. So I updated the database (takes over an hour on dialup) and ran the scan. Found 2 viruses and 62 trojans. Could not fix 2 of them: W32/Poebot.dam and some kind of thing called New Malware.j. The trojans found were Prutec (this was the "raswex" process), E2Give, Qoolaid, Downloader (RK,FL and VG), QLowZones-38 and Proxy-FBSR.
BTW, Spybot continues to run the TeaTimer even after unchecking the box.
So here is my current Hijack This scan log:

Hi

Please repeat disabling tea timer, also you might need right click on its icon in the tray and choose exit.

Start Hijackthis and place a check next to these items If there.

That didn't seem to find anything so I did another Hijack scan which is posted below: (Please ignore the clock setting: It is never correct. Not sure why; the Battery is OK.)

Over the weekend I tried to run FindQuolaid again. I got the same text report as above but in watching the DOS window I noticed it said "The system cannot find the path specified" about 50 times. The last line said "Could not find C:\Peek1.txt" I tried turning on continuous virus checking of all file changes and re-booted. When it came up the Spybot resident was doing it's thing again with "Winsync". I right clicked and stopped it. Within a few seconds the Virus checker reported finding AND DELETING the mysterious ppipay.exe file. The strange thing is it said the associated application was Spybot TeaTimer ! Could this file have been hiding as the TeaTimer??
I ran Hijack This again and the scan looked clean to me. What do you think?

Hi

Turn off tea timer and leave it off untill we are finished with this thread please.

Did you go to that link and use the fix for your paticular system then try findqoologic again ?

If not lets skip that and use Ewido, download, install and update but it needs to be ran while in safe mode and dont open any folders while it is scanning or the infection might come back.
http://www.ewido.net/en/download/
 
Lonny, as I mentioned above, TeaTimer is unchecked in Spybot but it always comes up after a reboot. I have to turn it off with a right-click, Exit.
But it just runs in the background now that the malware seems to be gone.
That link you gave me for XP contains 3 files. There are no .exe files. Am I to run the .BAT file?
I downloaded Ewido and will run it tonight on my machine..
Thanks.
 
Hi There are no exe's here ?
http://www.tech-forums.net/computer/topic/29806.html
very simple instructions provided there, anyway skip that and install ewido

Try this for tea timer turn it back on within SpyBot then turn it off again by unchecking that option, now rightclick on its tray icon (if its still there) and choose exit, it shouldnt then start with windows.


Yes use ewido
 
Wow, this stuff is tenacious! Here is what happened last night. I shut off the TeaTimer as you suggested and then started a Ewido scan. It was running slowly so I let it run overnight. This morning it had found and fixed 162 "items". The report is below. But also, the virus checker had deleted Quoolaid about 8 times
AND the TeaTimer was running continuously blocking a register change from some [[long string of numbers] entity. I have the modem set to "Never dial a connection" so I don't think anything happened overnight.
______________________________________________
(can't upload the scan because it is 48KB).

Anyway it looks like there are still demons lurking.
 
Hi

You might need to split that ewido report into two or three files then attach them.
I suggest you uninstall SpyBot for now since tea timer wont turn off properly., you mention it might have interfeared I have to assume you did not run ewido while the pc was in safe mode as was suggested
 
Rats! I thought of it the next morning that I forgot to run it in safe mode.
So I tried that last night. Ewido is a very nice program. It only found one additonal item in safe mode. Here is the report:

Hi

Yes that BHO should be fixed

C:\WINDOWS\system32\firewall.exe < is that file still there ?

Your missing a normal item at the location below, thats why findqoologic didnt work
probaly have problems with other software as well, if you would like to repair it
make and import this registry file

Launch Notepad (not wordpad), and copy and paste the contents of the code box below into a new text file.
Save it as file name: "fixme.reg" (not including the quotes). Save as file type: All files (*.*) and save it on your Desktop.
Code: 
REGEDIT4

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\VirtualDeviceDrivers]
"VDD"=hex(7):00
Now double-click on the fixme.reg file you saved and click on the Yes button when it asks if you would like to merge the information. Once you get a successful message delete fixme.reg.
 
Tried that registry fix but it made no difference in the way that FindQuoologic ran. Still listed about 50 lines of "can't find file path" as above.

I ran Hijack This and killed that suspicious line. We'll watch to
see if it returns. The computer seems to be humming along fine now.
