Place a check mark next to the following entries: (if there) 
 Important: Close all windows except for Hijackthis and then click Fix checked. Exit Hijackthis. ---------- Download, install and run CCleaner # Double click the CCleaner shortcut on the desktop to start the program. # On the "Windows" tab, under "Internet Explorer," uncheck "Cookies" if you do not want them deleted. (If deleted, you will likely need to reenter your passwords at all sites where a cookie is used to recognize you when you visit). # If you use either the Firefox or Mozilla browsers, the box to uncheck for "Cookies" is on the Applications tab, under Firefox/Mozilla. # Click on the "Options" icon at the left side of the window, then click on "Advanced." deselect "Only delete files in Windows Temp folders older than 48 hours." # Click on the "Cleaner" icon on the left side of the window, then click Run Cleaner to run the program. # After CCleaner has completed its process exit CCleaner. ---------- Download Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware from here or here Double Click mbam-setup.exe to install the application. 
 ---------- Next post add MBAM log A NEW Hijackthis log1. I booted my computer a few minutes ago and I see some drvbock.dll detected by AVG and AVG says it's a possible unwanted program or something like that and I pressed move to vault. 2. ok. I have done the Hijackthis system scan. Both entries you mentioned existed, so I fixed all as you recommended. 3. I have done the CCleaner cleanup. 4. I have not yet done the Malwarebyte check.... will do that later. I'm moving this to the Computer viruses and spyware forum. drvbock.dll is an unknown virus which is why AVG isn't fixing it. If MBAM doesn't get it we will go to more powerful tools. Don't worry, we'll get it!!! I scanned with spybot S&D program and I see MSDSip registry entries detected under VIRTUMONDE error. I will double check TOMORROW with the MBAM program and also with Spybot. Spybot said some of the virtumonde errors can't be fixed as they are detected to be in use in the memory and now I have to restart and have Spybot scan and clean before computer loads otherwise it might fail again. Also, like I said, drvbock.dll came up this time. drvriw.dll came up last time and if this problem still goes on, it might report a different dll is problematic. I think AVG isn't fixing the dll problems. But it knows it's problematic which is why i think the dll can't run error comes up-- AVG blocks it. Without following through on my instructions we will end up making this a very long process when it doesn't need to be. You'll notice that with every step I request it produces a log to be posted. Without "seeing" whats going on it's all just debate and guess work. I have to find the location of the infected file(s) to be able to know how to get rid of them.Hi evilfantasy, sorry I did not follow your directions. After all, you're the PC doctor and now, hopefully, we can get my computer healthy and back to sanity again, Anyway, here are a few things for you: 1. a MBAM Log (MBAM found 2 trojans) 3. new HJT log. 3. a AVG threat popup that appeared when MBAM scan completed. (I provided screenshot for you to look at and I clicked on 'move to vault' already) All three are attached with this message.... so check the attachments included [recovering disk space -- attachment deleted by admin]OK, we need to do another more thorough scan. This one won't take long. Download Combofix by sUBs from one of the below links. Important! Combofix.exe MUST be saved to and ran from the Desktop. 
 
 ---------- Next post add Combofix logcombofix wouldn't run on my computer. But anyway, I have reinstalled windows and all is okay now. Thanks for all the help earlier.Thanks for the update. I was curious why combofix would not run. I had double clicked it like any normal proram and the loading bar appeared and it stopped there, nothing going on but I could use my computer as noirmal. Anyhow, yeah no problem. thanks again evilfantasy for your help and I am happy that my computer is all good again | |
