Trojan - Mebroot

Hi there

My husband ran a symatec virus scan and discovered we have a trojan - mebroot virus. The removal instructions tell us to restart the computer using the Windows Recovery consule.

I cannot get this to work, maybe it's not on our computer.

Please help me discover if this is indeed what I have and help me to fix it.

Thank you so much.

    Hello and Welcome to the forums!

    My name is Gringo and I'll be glad to help you with your computer problems. HijackThis logs can take some time to research, so please be patient with me. I know that you need your computer working as quickly as possible, and I will work hard to help see that it happens.

    Before we start: Please be aware that removing Malware is a potentially hazardous undertaking. I will take care not to knowingly suggest courses of action that might damage your computer. However it is impossible for me to foresee all interactions that may happen between the software on your computer and those we'll use to clear you of infection, and I cannot guarantee the safety of your system. It is possible that we might encounter situations where the only recourse is to re-format and re-install your operating system, or to necessitate you taking your computer to a repair shop.

    Because of this, I advise you to backup any personal files and folders before you start.

    Somethings to remember while we are working together.
      1.Please do not run any other tool untill instructed to do so!
      2.Please reply to this thread, do not start another!
      3.Please tell me about any problems that have occurred during the fix.
      4.Please tell me of any other symptoms you may be having as these can help also.
      5.Please try as much as possible not to run anything while executing a fix.


      If you follow these instructions, everything should go smoothly.

      I would like to get a better look at your system, please do the following so I can get some more detailed logs

      Download DDS

        Hello Marj14

        When I had you run DDS It made two reports I need the one called attached - if need be rerun the scan and send me just that part - thanks

        : Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware :
          Please download
        Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware to your desktop.

        [*]Double-click mbam-setup.exe and follow the prompts to install the program.
        [*]At the end, be sure a checkmark is placed next to
        • Update Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware
        • and Launch Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware
        [*] then click Finish.
        [*]If an update is found, it will download and install the latest version.
        [*]Once the program has loaded, select Perform quick scan, then click Scan.
        [*]When the scan is complete, click OK, then Show Results to view the results.
        [*]Be sure that everything is Checked (ticked) except items in the C:\System Volume Information folder and click on Remove Selected.
        [*]When completed, a log will open in Notepad. please copy and paste the log into your next reply

        • C:\Documents and Settings\Username\Application Data\Malwarebytes\Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware\Logs\mbam-log-date (time).txt


        Note: If MBAM encounters a file that is difficult to remove, you will be presented with 1 of 2 prompts.
        Click OK to either and let MBAM proceed with the disinfection process.
        If asked to restart the computer, please do so immediately. Failure to reboot will prevent MBAM from removing all the malware.

          Well those 2 scans say there's no problems. There is something wrong though.

          While I was working on these, the AVG logo in my taskbar appeared twice, it's never done that before. The Java logo also appeared, and I was not using anything that needed it to. Also, when I started the K scan, the program had an Windows error and shut down. I had to start it over. When my K scan was done, it also gave me the message to go to the virus encyclopedia to disable by pop up blocker. Could the pop up blocker have stopped results from coming through?

          Hello

          :P2P Warning!:
            IMPORTANT I notice there are signs of one or more P2P (Person to Person) File Sharing Programs on your computer.

            eMule
            Kazaa Lite


            Please note that as long as you are using any form of Peer-to-Peer networking and downloading files from non-documented sources, you can expect infestations of malware to occur
            Once upon a time, P2P file sharing was fairly safe. That is no longer true. You may continue to use P2P sharing at your own risk; however, please keep in mind that this practice may be the source of your current malware infestation

            I'd like you to read the Guidelines for P2P Programs where we explain why it's not a good idea to have them.

            Please read these short reports on the dangers of peer-2-peer programs and file sharing.
              Cyber Education Letter
              File sharing infects 500,000 computers

              I would recommend that you uninstall eMule Kazaa Lite, however that choice is up to you. If you choose to remove these programs, you can do so via Control Panel >> Add or Remove Programs.

              If you wish to keep it, please do not use it until your computer is cleaned.


              uninstall some programs
                1. click on start
                2. then go to settings
                3. after that you need control panel
                4. look for the icon add/remove programs
                click on the following programs

                Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment 6


                and click on remove


                Your Java is out of date.

                It can be updated by the Java control panel
                • click on Start-> Control Panel (Classic View)-> Java (looks like a coffee cup) -> Update Tab -> Update Now.
                • An update should begin;
                • follow the prompts.

                Please download mbr.exe from here to your desktop.

                Open NOTEPAD and copy/paste the text in the quotebox below into it:
                @echo off
                mbr.exe -t
                start mbr.log
                del %0
                

                Save this as fix.bat Choose to "Save type as - All Files"
                It should look like this: bat_icon.gif
                Place fix.bat next to mbr.exe & then double click to run it. A log file should open.

                Post the contents of that log in reply.

                :run combofix:
                  Please visit this webpage for download links, and instructions for running the tool:
                http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/combofix/how-to-use-combofix

                Please ensure you read this guide carefully and install the Recovery Console first.

                The Windows Recovery Console will allow you to boot up into a special recovery (repair) mode.
                This allows us to more easily help you should your computer have a problem after an attempted removal of malware.
                It is a simple procedure that will only take a few moments of your time.


                Once installed, you should see a blue screen prompt that says:
                  The Recovery Console was successfully installed.

                  Please continue as follows:
                  • Close/disable all anti virus and anti malware programs so they do not interfere with the running of ComboFix.
                  • Click Yes to allow ComboFix to continue scanning for malware.

                  When the tool is finished, it will produce a report for you.

                  Please include the report in your next post:

                  I was following the steps, I got to the activate combo fix one. I hut run, and instead of the combo fix screen coming up I got an AVG message (I couldn't disable it) saying we have detected malware, quarantine or allow it. Three different times. c\32788r22fwjfw\n.pf
                  c\32788r22fwjf\explore.exe and c\32788r22fwjfw\nircmd.cfxxe.

                  I quarantined them, then another one came up pointing to the combo fix app you had me put on the desktop. So I said quarantine that too.

                  Did I screw up?

                  Combo fix has been running since noon EST yesterday, it's still on the "preparing log" stage. Is this normal? It was 7:30 EST when I last checked before leaving for work.

                    The TFC seemed to have clear files from the "Help Assistant" account that we did not set up. This account is one reason that we thought we had the Mebroot Trojan.

                    We can't really assess how the computer is running as all I am doing is trying to fix these problems.

                    One thing that kept happening is the windows installer kept popping up, telling me to put in the net zero cd.

                    From what you can see, should the computer be clear? What about this Windows Assistant bogus account? Can we stop that windows installer from coming up?

                    What about this Windows Assistant bogus account?
                      this is not a bogus account ( has to do with remote assistance ) but not normaly enabled If you simply want to disable this user, please follow these steps: - Right Click on My Computer and select Manage - Within the Computer Manager window, double click on Local Users and Groups - Double click on the Users folder - On the right side of that window, you will see all of the available user accounts within your computer. Right Click on the HelpAssistant user account and select Properties - In the HelpAssistant Properties window, you will see an option to disable the account. Place a check mark in the box next to that option - Click OK twice to close those windows - Close the Computer Management window - Restart the computer

                    Can we stop that windows installer from coming up?

                    - Within the Computer Manager window, double click on Local Users and Groups

                    - This is not in the choices.

                    One more thing. Quite often when I close off with the x at the top of the screen, it opens a million windows that I need to shut down one by one. Can you help me fix that? Rogers called me last week and said there was a virus in my yahoo account. My Yahoo is my homepage.

                    In my control panel, user accounts, there is no windows assistant, maybe I got rid of it using that clean up too.

                    I can't delete the million windows the way you're telling me.

                    Rogers is my internet provider.

                    Computer is doing well besides these, we're almost ready to say goodbye, lol.
