Windows XP Security Malware keeps coming back

Update:

The program locks up when it starts scanning the drivers. Could this indicate faulty or infected drivers? Personally, I think it has something to do with running it in safe mode, because other scans (like mbam) go twice as slow when I'm in safe mode.

Anyway, after trying it a second time, it tried to lock up again when it reached the drivers, but I manually stopped the scan. I could then follow the rest of your instructions (run full scan on all drives, save logs, etc.). However, it was late, so I'll run the scans in the morning.

It may be worth noting that the quick scan did find a "backdoor" virus or something. Hopefully it was the darn downloader you mentioned.....
 
Well, the FULL scan has been going all day. Since it's scanning every file on my drives, I expected as much. The full scan is running smoothly though, and it's about 3/4 of the way done.

As for the backdoor, it was found again during the quickscan (before I stopped it from getting to the drivers). Here's the listed info.

Object: Process in memory: C:\Windows\Explorer.EXE:840
Status: BackDoor.Tdss.565
Action: Eradicated

Everything is still being done in Safe Mode. The laptop has not been connected to the internet or any other network for the past two days.
 
Big sigh.....

It got to the very end of the full scan, and it's trying to scan the drivers again. Again, when scanning those drivers, it scans very slowly. I could leave it on all night and let it finish scanning, especially since it decided to find all of the quarantined files from other anti-malware/spyware programs.
 
Well, I left the scan running overnight, and it was still scanning the drivers at a slow rate. I then manually stopped the scan. A whole list of infections is shown, but most of them were from quarantine folders in Spybot and MBAM.

Here's my problem though. I don't see any of those buttons that you listed in the instructions. I do have 5 buttons on the bottom: Select All, Cure, Rename, Move, Delete. Cure, Rename, Move, and Delete only become available after I click Select All.

After clicking Select All, what should I do? Should I move them or delete them? I'm just leaving the program open until I see your answer.

Lastly, here are the logs you requested.

Attached is the Dr. Web log. It was messy when I tried to copy/paste it.
 
Looks like most of those were already inactive.

Those can't be cured so delete is the option.

Let's see this next:

Locate if present the following file & delete it:

C:\windows\ntbtlog.txt

Restart the computer
Just before the OS loading screen starts hit F8 as if going to safe mode.
From the advanced boot menu choose "enable boot logging" then hit enter.
Post the following file:

C:\windows\ntbtlog.txt[/b
 
I couldn't enable boot logging AND run it in safe mode, so it ran in normal mode. I quickly copied the ntbtlog to my flash drive and turned it off. I didn't want the downloader to re-download the malware...

Here's the log.

Nothing bad there.

Let's see next online scan.

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.
 
Should I run this in normal mode or safe mode with networking? I can't run an online scan without... well, an internet connection. :confused:
 
Kaspersky detected threats, but did it cure/delete them?

Here's the logs.

Stil problems?
 
I deleted those files and folders as instructed. I won't be able to use the laptop for most of the day, but I will update you on its performance tomorrow.

Thanks for all the help! :bigthumb:
 
Well, no signs of that malware so far. However, I did have a weird occurrence. A window popped up asking me if I wanted to debug an error that happened to svchost.exe. I simply closed it, and my display settings went a little crazy for a second (title text of windows was a bit different). I then went to change them back, but it corrected itself.

Before that happened, I did notice that one entry of svchost.exe in the processes list was temporarily taking up about 25% of the CPU.

Other than those two things, it has been relatively "normal."
 
I haven't used the laptop since. I will be able to use it tonight, and I will update you again soon.

Thanks for hanging in there with me... :)
 
Has that re-occurred?

Shortly after turning on the system today, it DID re-occur. I also ended an svchost.exe process because it was using up 50% of the CPU. My display settings changed for a second, and when I went to change them back, it corrected itself (like last time).

What I don't understand is why all of a sudden a svchost process is taking up 50% every time I boot up.
 
It's also worth noting that when I was first using safe mode (when you first told me to), I had to adjust screen resolution so that everything could fit on the screen. Ever since then, when I'm in normal mode, everything "seems" like it is smaller than before (text, icons, etc.).

I just rebooted into safe mode to see if I could re-apply the old settings of monitor resolution to make everything appear large and clunky (only in safe mode), but that resolution option no longer appears.

Overall though, it seems to run smoothly after I end that svchost process.
 
"It's also worth noting that when I was first using safe mode (when you first told me to), I had to adjust screen resolution so that everything could fit on the screen"

That is normal in safe mode.

Are automatic updates on? That might explain high svchost.exe CPU usage.
