Removing a rootkit virus

freethepenguins

Hey,

I've had a few problems with my laptop lately and I installed the Avira security, it found a rootkit virus and it was unable to remove. I get the message that the file is critical to the O.S.. I have found where the file is and I still cann't remove it. Any one have any ideas?

This is the name of the file TR/Rootkit.Gen Trojan.

freethepenguins

here is the file path also

C:\WINDOWS\system32\drivers\hustirve.sys

hi

Download ComboFix here :

* IMPORTANT !!! Save ComboFix.exe to your Desktop

• Disable your AntiVirus and AntiSpyware applications, usually via a right click on the System Tray icon. They may otherwise interfere with our tools. If you don't know how to disable them then just continue on.
  
  
• Double click on ComboFix.exe & follow the prompts.
  
  
• As part of it's process, ComboFix will check to see if the Microsoft Windows Recovery Console is installed. With malware infections being as they are today, it's strongly recommended to have this pre-installed on your machine before doing any malware removal. It will allow you to boot up into a special recovery/repair mode that will allow us to more easily help you should your computer have a problem after an attempted removal of malware.
  
  
• Follow the prompts to allow ComboFix to download and install the Microsoft Windows Recovery Console, and when prompted, agree to the End-User License Agreement to install the Microsoft Windows Recovery Console.

**Please note: If the Microsoft Windows Recovery Console is already installed, ComboFix will continue it's malware removal procedures.

Once the Microsoft Windows Recovery Console is installed using ComboFix, you should see the following message:




Click on Yes, to continue scanning for malware.

When finished, it shall produce a log for you. Please include the C:\ComboFix\ComboFix.txt log in your next reply.

Thats some good advice the only thing I'd add is to skip the recovery console installation it will run fine with out and if you really need it you can boot from your OS recovery cd and get the recovery console. I must of used combofix to repair over a hundred machines and the only time it ever let me down was when I installed the Recovery Console - Not combofix's fault as the install is MS's but the laptop wouldn't boot until I repaired the boot.ini so I skip the RC install now and never had an issue.

ASJ112

Please install the recovery console, its rather important

freethepenguins

still cann't remove it, it appears to be reading the virus as part of the OS for some reason. I'm using avira anti-virus.

ASJ112

can you not run combofix at all ?

*Deregistered* - hustirve

but avira still finds the rootkit and when I try to just delete the file myself I get the following message

Cannot delete hustrive: Cannot read from the source file or disk.

ASJ112

you need to post the combofix log

freethepenguins

By log do u mean the report at the end, when the tool had completed running

ASJ112

yup

You should back up your data and then reformat the drive and reinstall your OS. It's the recommended solution for dealing with rootkits if you want to be certain it's removed.
