pd7.exe virus -- shawnd

Unknown · March 2005

Hello, how are you?

My computer got hit with several viruses last night. Trend Micro's free online scan got rid of all them except for one -- pd7.exe. Was wondering if someone could please tell me how to get rid of this file. I'm not sure if it's the virus that doing this, but something keeps changing my home page as well and setting it to http://www.search-paga.com/10039/.

I ran Spybot and deleted a few files and then ran Ad-Aware SE Personal and quarantined 48 files. I also ran Hijack This and have included the Logfile. Any help that could be provided would be greatly appreciated. Thanks so much for your time!

Shawn

Hi Buckeye_Sam. Thanks so much for your help. I really appreciate it. I deleted the files you told me to and started my computer back up. My homepage was set to blank so I set it back to it's normal destination. It went there no problem. However a few minutes later I clicked on the home icon and it took me back to the sketchy one that showed up when I got the virus, http://www.search-paga.com/10039/. Here is my updated log. Thanks again for all your help.

If this is familiar to you then don't remove it. Otherwise remove it when asked following the steps below.

Please download CWShredder but don't run it yet.
http://cwshredder.net/bin/CWSInstall.exe

Make sure that you can view all hidden files. Instructions on how to do this can be found here:

How to see hidden files in Windows

Run Hijackthis again, click scan, and Put a checkmark next to each of these. Then close all other windows--you should only see HijackThis on your Desktop--and click the Fix Checked button.

Reboot your computer into Safe Mode

Now run CWShredder, making sure to click "Fix".

Then delete these files or directories (Do not be concerned if they do not exist)

C:\WINDOWS\inetdata\services.exe

Reboot your computer to go back to normal mode.

Please run these two online scans.
Make sure they are set to clean automatically:

If there are files that can not be removed by the scans please include that information in your next post.

Reboot and post a new hijackthis log.

Hi, how are you?

Thanks for responding to my message. I am so thankful for any advice you can offer.

There's something hidden somewhere that is causing it to come back.

Download DLLCompare.
Double-click on DllCompare.exe to run the program.
Click "Run Locate.com" and it will scan your system for files.
Once the scan has finished click "Compare" to compare your files to valid Windows files.
Once it has finished comparing click "Make a Log of what was found".
Click "Yes" at the View Log file? prompt to view the log.
Copy and paste the entire log into this topic.
If you accidentally close out of the log it is also saved as log.txt to where you saved DllCompare.exe.
Click "Exit" to exit DLLCompare.

Here's what the DllCompare log said:

* DLLCompare Log version(1.0.0.127)

This virus is a pain in the butt! Thanks again for all of the advice you've given me thus far. I really appreciate it.

Ok, I'm taking off the gloves now. :shakehead
I guess we have to get serious with this guy.

Download a program called A2(or A squared). You'll need to register(it's free) in order to get the updates before you can run it.
http://www.emsisoft.com/en/software/free/

Once you have it updated, close it and don't run it just yet.

Please make sure that you can view all hidden files. Instructions on how to do this can be found here:

How to see hidden files in Windows

Reboot your computer into Safe Mode

Place a checkmark next to these entries, close all browsers and windows, and have HijackThis fix them by clicking Fix Checked:

R0 - HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main,Start Page = http://www.search-paga.com/10039/
F3 - REG:win.ini: run=C:\WINDOWS\inetdata\winlogon.exe
O2 - BHO: (no name) - {5321E378-FFAD-4999-8C62-03CA8155F0B3} - (no file)
O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [xp_system] C:\WINDOWS\inetdata\winlogon.exe
O4 - HKCU\..\Run: [xp_system] C:\WINDOWS\inetdata\winlogon.exe

Then delete this file:

C:\WINDOWS\inetdata\winlogon.exe

Reboot your computer to go back to normal mode.

Now run A2 and remove everything that it finds.

Once A2 has run it's course I want to see a different log from Hijackthis.

In Hijack This, click 'Open the Misc Tools Section".
Under the "Generate Startuplist log" button, check the "List also minor sections" box.

Now press "Generate Startuplist Log"
This will generate a text file that will list all applications that are loaded from practically every known startup location.

Go to Edit > select all, copy it and post its contents here.

Let me know what A2 finds and how it goes.

Hi Buckeye_Sam, how are you?

Deleted the files you said to and then ran A2 and hijack this. Here are the results.

Here is the Generate Startuplist Log:

Can you please download the file "Find It.zip" to your desktop from here - http://computercops.biz/zx/Zupe/Find%20It%20NT-2K-XP.zip . Unzip the contents to a folder, then open the folder and double-click on Find.bat. It will run for a minute, then produce a log. Please copy and paste that log here.

Thanks for all the time you've spent so far trying to help me fix this. I really appreciate it.

Buckeye_Sam · March 2005

This shouldn't be that difficult to kill. I'm puzzled. Please check to see if this file is present on your computer and let me know.

c:\windows\\tasks\sa.dat

When you ran Killbox did it delete the file?

Did CWShredder find anything on it's scan?

Can you manually delete this folder, or do you get an error?

C:\WINDOWS\inetdata

If you can delete it, run Hijackthis immediately and let me know if any file from that folder shows up in your running processes.

shawnd · March 2005

Did a search for c:\windows\\tasks\sa.dat, but couldn't find anything.

CW Shredder found and deleted CWS.Yexe

Tried to delete C:\WINDOWS\inetdata manually, but it said the file was being used by another program. Disconnected from the net and closed all windows, but still gave me the same message.

>When you ran Killbox did it delete the file?
I deleted all the temp internet files with Killbox and told it to delete C:\WINDOWS\inetdata on reboot. It's still there though so I guess it couldn't get rid of it. Are there any other files it should have deleted?

This things driving me crazy! Thanks again for all of your help so far.

Make sure you can see hidden files and look for this file again.

c:\windows\tasks\sa.dat

If you find it, delete it.

I'd like to try this tool to see if it will work on your infection.
http://www.derbilk.de/SpSeHjfix_Beta9.zip

Follow the prompts, but you should run it twice with a reboot between.

Let me know how it goes and post a new hijackthis log.

Please download and install AVG antivirus. Follow the prompts to download and install all updates and then run a complete scan.
http://free.grisoft.com/softw/70free/setup/avg70free_300a419.exe

Download this tool and run it.
http://securityresponse.symantec.com/avcenter/FxAgentB.exe

Please make sure that you can view all hidden files. Instructions on how to do this can be found here:

How to see hidden files in Windows

Place a checkmark next to these entries, close all browsers and windows, and have HijackThis fix them by clicking Fix Checked:

Reboot your computer into Safe Mode

Then delete these files or directories (Do not be concerned if they do not exist):

C:\WINDOWS\System32\sysprinter.exe
C:\WINDOWS\inetdata
C:\WINDOWS\cerbmod.dll

Run CWShredder.

Reboot your computer to go back to normal mode.

Download and run Microsoft's Antispyware application.

http://www.microsoft.com/athome/security/spyware/software/default.mspx

Remove everything that it finds.

Reboot and post a new hijackthis log. Let me know how everything went and any problems that you ran into.

Hello.

The AVG Antivirus found and "healed" the following:
-Trojan Horse Dialer.12AM
-Trojan Horse Dialer
-Trojan Downloader .Swall.26.AO

http://securityresponse.symantec.co...er/FxAgentB.exe said "Back door agent not found"

CWShredder didn't find anything

Microsoft's Antispyware application removed 9 files.

Ran Hijack This right after. Here's what it said:

As soon as I finished running Highjack This, the computer tried to change back to the old sketchy search engine - http://www.search-paga.com/10039/
and tried to install Cool.Search. However, Microsoft's Antispyware application stopped them both from loading.

Thanks again for all your help. Have a great day!

That's progress!

Please remove these entries from Add/Remove Programs in the Control Panel(if present):

Media Access

Please make sure that you can view all hidden files. Instructions on how to do this can be found here:

How to see hidden files in Windows

Place a checkmark next to these entries, close all browsers and windows, and have HijackThis fix them by clicking Fix Checked:

O2 - BHO: (no name) - {38D4D5D0-423E-4220-B6F9-30918C2AE4A4} - C:\WINDOWS\sasetup.dll
O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [Media Access] C:\Program Files\Media Access\MediaAccK.exe
O16 - DPF: {15AD6789-CDB4-47E1-A9DA-992EE8E6BAD6} - http://static.windupdates.com/cab/6...e/bridge-c7.cab

Reboot your computer into Safe Mode

Then delete these files or directories (Do not be concerned if they do not exist):

C:\WINDOWS\sasetup.dll
C:\Program Files\Media Access

Reboot your computer to go back to normal mode and post a new log.

Hi.

Removed Media Access.

Neither of these files,
O2 - BHO: (no name) - {38D4D5D0-423E-4220-B6F9-30918C2AE4A4} - C:\WINDOWS\sasetup.dll
O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [Media Access] C:\Program Files\Media Access\MediaAccK.exe, appeared on my log so I couldn't click to fix them.

sasetup.dll has tried twice to install itself on my computer since rebooting, but the Microsoft Antispyware app keeps blocking it.

Tried deleting C:\WINDOWS\sasetup.dll is safe mode, but comp wouldn't let me delete it.

Here is my updated log:

CoolWebSearch keeps trying to install itself on my computer every 5 minutes or so, but the Microsoft AntiSpyware app keeps blocking it.

Look to see if this file is still present.

C:\WINDOWS\sasetup.dll

Please make sure that you can view all hidden files. Instructions on how to do this can be found here:

How to see hidden files in Windows

Place a checkmark next to these entries, close all browsers and windows, and have HijackThis fix them by clicking Fix Checked:

O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [xp_system] C:\WINDOWS\inetdata\services.exe
O4 - HKCU\..\Run: [xp_system] C:\WINDOWS\inetdata\services.exe

Reboot your computer into Safe Mode

Run CWShredder. Let me know what it finds.

Then delete this directory.

C:\WINDOWS\inetdata

If it won't let you delete it, go into the folder and start deleting each file on at a time. If you get an error, right click on the file, select Properties, and make sure the box marked Read-only is unchecked. Then try to delete it again. If you still can't delete it, try to rename the file.

Reboot your computer to go back to normal mode and post a new log.

Hello again,

Sorry for the late reply. I had to go away for a few days for a work conference.

C:\WINDOWS\sasetup.dll isn't present. There is a file named sasent.dll that was created on March 19. Is this something similar?

Ran CWShredder, but it didn't find anything.

Deleted C:\WINDOWS\inetdata in safe mode, without any problems, but just rebooted my computer in normal mode and it's still there.

Here is my new log:
