Persistent Trojans
« on: Jan 21st, 2008, 4:20pm »
Quote Quote  Modify Modify

After installing SuperAntispyware 4.0  I ran scans in both normal and safe mode that detected three (3) trojans, but the trojans could not be removed. (see below)
 
I also ran a full TH 5 scan... but with no trojans detected.
 
I'd appreciate any suggestion as to what to try next.
 
 
Trojan.WinLoad32/system (2 detected)
Trojan.DeskAdp

Sorry that you are seeing infections and that TrojanHunter is not helping you remove them.
 
Please submit the files that are supposedly infected to Mischel Internet Security for analysis.  Gavin/Magnus will analyze them and incorporate the appropriate rules for removal.  The link below describes how to submit files.
 
http://www.misec.net/forum/board/FAQ/1139308293
 
Once you get confirmation from Gavin/Magus that the files are truly infections and that rules have been incorporated in TH,
 
-  Run LiveUpdate to obtain the latest rules.
 
-  Reboot your computer into SAFE MODE and run a FULL scan with TrojanHunter.
 
After you have submitted the files above, please post a Hijackthis log back here and I'll take a look-see as to what infection you have and what can be done immediately while waiting for the analysis.
 
If you do not have Hijackthis on your system, see the link below.

What were the names of the files that you submitted?  
 
Have you done a full scan of your system with Kaspersky V7.0 since this all started and did it detect anything?

In addition to my post above, I can see problems via your HiJackthis log.   Please do this:
 
1.  Go to the link below and download Combofix.exe and save it on your desktop.
 
http://download.bleepingcomputer.com/sUBs/ComboFix.exe
 
2.  Close down all your security programs Except your software firewall.  This will prevent them from interfering with ComboFix.exe
 
3.  Double click combofix.exe & follow the prompts.  
When finished, it will produce a log for you.  
 
Note:  
Do not mouseclick combofix's window while it is running. That may cause it to stall.

 
4.  After Combofix completes its work, please post back here the log from Combofix.
 
5.  Post a new Hijackthis log.
 
Also, it looks like all your services are disabled.  Either that or you may not be running a normal standalone home computer?  Would you please do this:
 
1.  Go to START>RUN and type in   services.msc
 
2.  Click on OK
 
3.  When the Services window opens, scan down through the services and see if they are all disabled.

Kaspersky zapped the trojans that SuperAntispyware detected
earlier today. Interesting point ...  that SuperAntispyware couldn't remove what it detected! As it turn out, I didn't need ComboFix. By the way, Kaspersky flagged ComboFix as a virus carrier when I tried to download it!
 
As for services.exe, the information there appears normal to me.
 
You mentioned that my HJT scan contained certain data that caught your attention. Could you elaborate this point a bit?
Should I post another HJT scan now?
 
Thanks

The two startup items above caught my attention.  There is a Worm that uses the name iexplore.exe placed in the System32 folder as an infection.  It is not normal for iexplore.exe to be a startup entry.

I am wondering why your services like the ones shown above are all "Unknown owner"  
 
Yes, please post another HJT log.
 
As far as KAV detecting combofix.exe, this is normal because of what combofix.exe is/does.  It uses some of the same techniques to clean as the cybercriminals use to infect.

Could it have anything to do with the 64-bit OS that I'm running.

The only thing in your new HJT log that bothers me is the two startup entries below.
 
Quote:
O4 - HKCU\..\Run: [Internet Explorer] C:\Program Files (x86)\Internet Explorer\iexplore.exe  
O4 - HKCU\..\Run: [Internet Explorer983] C:\Program Files (x86)\Internet Explorer\iexplore.exe

 
I don't know why iexplore.exe is automatically started up on your system on reboot...much less why there are 2 entries for starting it up.  Does your home page automatically open when you reboot?

Would you please check something on your system.
 
1.  First make all your files and folders visible as per the link below.  
 
http://www.misec.net/forum/board/FAQ/1139610900
 
2.  Then do a search for the named vrmst32.exe  Do you find a file by this name?
