Answer» Hi. Will it automatically look at ALL of the drives ?You can select the drive you want to scan by going to Advance Settings, Under scan targets, select Change and select the drive you want to scan. Your Avira should be disabled during the scan. Don't forget to re-enable it afterwards.ESET Online Scan Log File Results : [emailprotected] as downloader log: all ok # version=7 # OnlineScannerApp.exe=1.0.0.1 # OnlineScanner.ocx=1.0.0.6211 # api_version=3.0.2 # EOSSerial=41c60b2222d87546a6fbc2722440c753 # end=finished # remove_checked=true # archives_checked=true # unwanted_checked=true # unsafe_checked=true # antistealth_checked=true # utc_time=2010-09-20 10:13:01 # local_time=2010-09-20 11:13:01 (+0000, GMT Daylight Time) # country="United Kingdom" # lang=1033 # osver=5.1.2600 NT Service PACK 3 # compatibility_mode=512 16777215 100 0 466316 466316 0 0 # compatibility_mode=1797 16775141 100 94 221262 57615206 82556 0 # compatibility_mode=8192 67108863 100 0 85959 85959 0 0 # scanned=1299649 # found=0 # cleaned=0 # scan_time=16890If there are no other issues, we can do some CLEANUP. * Click START then RUN - Vista users press the Windows Key and the R keys for the Run box. * Now type Combofix /uninstall in the runbox * Make sure there's a space between Combofix and /Uninstall * Then hit Enter * The above procedure will: * Delete the following: * ComboFix and its associated files and folders. * Reset the clock settings. * Hide file extensions, if required. * Hide System/Hidden files, if required. * Set a new, clean Restore Point. ******************************* Clean out your temporary internet files and temp files. Download TFC by OldTimer to your desktop. Double-click TFC.exe to run it. Note: If you are running on Vista, right-click on the file and choose Run As Administrator TFC will close all programs when run, so make sure you have saved all your work before you begin. * Click the Start button to begin the cleaning process. * Depending on how often you clean temp files, execution time should be anywhere from a few seconds to a minute or two. * Please let TFC run uninterrupted until it is finished. Once TFC is finished it should restart your computer. If it does not, please manually restart the computer yourself to ensure a complete cleaning. ********************************** Looking over your log it seems you don't have any evidence of a third party firewall. Firewalls protect against hackers and malicious intruders. You need to download a free firewall from one of these reliable vendors. Remember only install ONE firewall 1) Comodo Personal Firewall (Uncheck during installation "Install Comodo SafeSurf..", Make Comodo my default search provider" and "Make Comodo Search my homepage" and uncheck any HopSurf and/or Ask.com options if you choose this one) 2) Online Armor 3) Agnitum Outpost 4) PC Tools Firewall Plus If you are using the built-in Windows XP firewall, it is not recommended as it does not block outgoing connections. This means that any malware on your computer is free to "phone home" for more instructions. Simply put, Windows XP contains a mediocre firewall. This firewall is NO REPLACEMENT for a dedicated software solution. Remember to use only one firewall at the same time. ********************************** Use the Secunia Software Inspector to check for out of date software. •Click Start Now •Check the box next to Enable thorough system inspection. •Click Start •Allow the scan to finish and scroll down to see if any updates are needed. •Update anything listed. . ---------- Go to Microsoft Windows Update and get all critical updates. ---------- I suggest using WOT - Web of Trust.

Do you think my computer is clear of the Virus/Trojan now? Was it a RootKit and had it blocked Avira's ability to update itself? Should I be using a software Firewall ? I was under the impression that the modem/router that my ISP provided offered sufficient shielding. Perhaps this incident shows that that is not so.There was no evidence of that infection that you referred to in your opening thread. I would say that your computer is clean. I don't wish to discuss any more about these scans because hackers and malware writers also visit these site and we don't want to give them any help with their evil exploits. As for the firewalls; I'm not sure how effective your router firewall is but a third-party would probably be better. It will annoying at first until the firewall learns your routine but after a bit you'll not even know it's there. Thank you very VERY much for all of your help.You're welcome. Resolved. I will lock this topic. If you need more help, please start a new thread or pm me to unlock this thread. |
