Laptop infected?

just do it · 24-02-2013 10:09pm #1

I've a sinking feeling I've a nasty bug in my samsung nc10 (windows xp). One evening it started acting up an now I've only limited access to programs. Desktop doesn't display all the icons it normally has and even the desktop photo doesn't display. Eset AV tells me there is an infected file but won't let me clean it.

I've followed the advice on the "Computer/ Technology FAQ" thread and here is the log from HijackThis:

I've downloaded and ran combofix but it disappeared when it finished so I'm unable to post to the log.

Then I saved it to the desktop and ran it again and got the following error message while it was running its scan:

And the plot thickens...

Now a "caution has come up on screen which reads:

ComboFix.exe may be downloaded from the above site. If you have downloaded from some other site, there's a likely chance that it may be tainted. For peace of mind, I suggest that you delete the current copy and get a fresh one.

That is the website I downloaded it from originally....

just do it · 24-02-2013 11:48pm

And now there is a C:\ prompt box with the following message:

Restart the PC in Safe Mode (Restart and keep tapping F8 before you see the windows logo and select Safe Mode)

When the PC starts you can run hijack this,
You can then select the following entries and click remove entries:

Rerun the Eset Scan again and it should be able to clean it in safe mode.

Open the folder C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\ and delete both the files 4y8gfXPKACzKwZ.exe and PQHhaIjQxaS.exe if they are still there.

The reason you cant see your icons is that the infected file has changed the files to hidden / and or system protected files.

There is a scan currently happening in c:\ prompt box so I'll see what comes ofthat. It currently says

Is now rebooting, fingers crossed

No joy

ED E · 25-02-2013 2:15am

Download, update and "burn" a kaspersky rescue live USB key and boot from that. Let it do a full system scan, chances are it'll get you back running

ASJ112 · 25-02-2013 11:20am

can you download combofix again but save it as "explorer.exe" or something like that, then run it in safe mode.

it run fully now ?

theidiots · 26-02-2013 11:57pm

Download Rkill.exe http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/download/rkill/
and run it in safe mode. This will kill all processes not relating to Windows and then download and run Malwares AntiMalware program. Try what the others said here then if Malwares Anti Malware does not fix it after running rkii

download a new copy of combofix from the same link, run it in normal mode and let it download and install the recovery console and run, post the log it gives.

if that fails, download malwarebytes, install it, update it, run a quick scan and post that log

Thanks ASJ

Hopefully I'll get at it tonight.

If you have a USB stick spare, get the AVG Rescue CD (http://www.avg.com/ie-en/avg-rescue-cd) and boot from the USB. It'll run from outside Windows and often can remove viruses that the antivirus running within Windows will be unable to remove.

To be honest, I always favour a complete reinstall of the operating system on an infected machine. You may be able to remove the virus eventually but you might not get all of it and if you have confidential information on the laptop, I would never be fully confident that I'm safe and secure after having a virus on your machine.

If you have an external drive available, back up your personal files and do a reinstall of the OS from the Windows XP CD.

Was in the process of doing this tonight when ESET notified me it has updated itself. This has not happened, and I couldn't get it to update, since the laptop became infected. I'm running a scan and lets see what comes of that...

Hi Just Do It,

Can you try running our Online Scanner ( http://www.eset.com/us/online-scanner/ ). Can you also please confirm what ESET VSDB you're using (Open ESET, click Update).

Alternatively you can contact ESET directly and we'll be more than happy to help.

Looks like it's sorted without running the recovery console. Should I do this anyway?

The NOD32antivirus scan came up with nothing. The start up menu was blank but I've re-instated the usual items on that. The desktop icons were hidden so I've made them visible again.

Thanks to everyone for their help with this and a special thanks to ASJ112. Thankfully I've an external hard drive which I back up each laptop onto weekly so nothing lost.

Next project - map what's on it (save to registry??), clean the hard drive and re-install. I'd you know what I mean

ASJ112 · 09-03-2013 10:43am

Its up to you regarding the recovery console. Basically if a PC ever gets completely messed up, having the recovery console installed already makes it easier to fix up.

Laptop infected?
