Another Trojan - new member !

Good day, and thanks in advance for any help you can give. My name is Iain Brown, and I have some computer knowledge, but obviously not enough, as on the WIN2K machine in question there is a persistant hi-jack by Win32:Trojan-gen.

I have run the current versions of Spybot and AdAware (both updated): the machine runs AVAST anti-virus and I have also downloaded and run STINGER. AVAST reports a Trojan and takes the instruction to move it to the chest, but it does not cure.

IE gets put to home page www.search-paga.com/payse but is the tools display `payse' is replaced by 10039.

I have applied Hijackthis and attach the report. I guess I will have to remove some of the items, but which? - that is where I hope some kind soul will come to my aid.

Thank-you!

Iain

    Hi Iain and welcome to Short-Media.

    ===============

    Download CWShredder 2.14 from here.

    Download[/url] \'SpSeHjfix\' to the desktop and then
    right click a blank part of the desktop and select new folder, call it spfix
    unzip the file into that folder.

    Disconnect from the net and Close ALL OPEN PROGRAMS.
    Run 'SpSeHjfix'. and click on "Start Disinfection".
    When it's finished it will reboot your machine to finish the cleaning process.
    The tool creates a log of the fix which will appear in the folder.

    If it doesn't find any of the SE files or any hidden reinstallers it will say system clean and not go on to next stage.

    Run the shredder and press the *fix,* not scan and allow it to clean the infection. Close all browser and explorer windows before hitting the fix button.

    ===============

    Run HiJackThis then:

    1. Click "Config..."
    2. Click "Misc Tools"
    3. Click "Open Process manager"

    -

    Next, while holding down the CTRL key, locate (if present) and click on (highlight) each of the following:

    C:\WINNT\inetdata\winlogon.exe
    C:\WINNT\System32\dstart4.exe

    Now double-check and make sure that only those item(s) above are highlighted, then click "Kill process". Now, click "Refresh", check again, and repeat this step if any remain.

    ===============

    Run HiJackThis and click "Scan", then check(tick) the following, if present:


    R1 - HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main,Search Bar = res://C:\DOCUME~1\ADMINI~1\LOCALS~1\Temp\sp.dll/sp.html
    R0 - HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main,Start Page = http://www.search-paga.com/10039/

    Now, with all windows closed except HiJackThis, click "Fix checked".

    ===============

    Locate and delete the following item(s), if present. Make sure your able to "view system and hidden files/ folders:"

    files...

    C:\WINNT\inetdata\winlogon.exe
    C:\WINNT\System32\dstart4.exe
    C:\DOCUME~1\ADMINI~1\LOCALS~1\Temp\sp.dll

    -

    Note that some of these file(s) may or may not be present. If present, and cannot be deleted because they're 'in use', try deleting them in "Safe Mode".

    -

    Reboot.

    ===============

    To help protect your system from hostile ActiveX content, or special 'downloadable' files:

    Download, install and keep updated, SpywareBlaster. If you've installed it for the first time:

    1) Check for any available updates; if present, they'll be automatically downloaded and installed.
    2) Next, "Enable all protection".
    3) Exit the program.

    -

    Note: Remember to regularly check for updates.

    ===============

    Reboot and post a fresh HJT log and the log that was created by 'SpSeHjfix'.

    -

    crunchie.

    THANKS Crunchie!

    I have run the suggested actions, and the box seems to be behaving correctly now. I am very much obliged to you.

    The "after" HJT log is attached, as is the one from SpSehjfix.

    If there is anything else to do [I have installed Spywareblaster] please say.

    Thanks again ...... Iain

    Looks pretty good now :). You need to install service pack 4 for W2K and also service pack one for IE6.

    ===============

    Run HiJackThis and click "Scan", then check(tick) the following, if present:


    R0 - HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Search,SearchAssistant =


    Now, with all windows closed except HiJackThis, click "Fix checked".

    ===============

    That should do you :)..
