Hi Jintan,
I just want to make sure that I've got things right so I don't mess up anything. When you say "Then load the XP CD into the CD-ROM drive and restart the system" are you talking about what you called the boot CD earlier -the disk that you are having me create - or should I still be trying to find an XP disk to use. Also, when you say "If the system only reboots to Windows stop and post back here ..." You mean if I don't see any promts from the CD, right? Sorry to ask such dumb questions, but I'm new to all of this and want to make sure that I've got it right. |

Yes, you are to use the CD you burned to do these steps. It has the setup part of an XP install disk, but just no copy of XP.
If you reboot, and the system does not allow you the option to press any key to "boot from the CD", and goes straight into locating Windows, then just post back here at that time, and we can discuss what BIOS changes you would need to make. |

OK. Got it; Thanks. I did as you said, and unfortunately, it did reboot to Windows, so I guess we'll have to make changes to the BIOS like you said.

Thanks, Jintan. I did as you said and reset the boot order in the Bios. After exiting the machine went back to the "Welcome to Setup" screen. I got out of that and got back in using SafeMode and found the file you asked for in C:\Windows. Here it is:

Good you got that run. But if the malware is there, it is loading as something with a legit name. Two items to check are that file ComboFix removed earlier, and then just assume a known boot level driver file is altered, and correct that. And add one other scan check as well.
Go here, press new topic, fill in the needed details and just give a link to your post back here (see the "Instructions for uploading files" there for help, if needed). Then press the browse button and then navigate to & select the following file on your computer. C:\qoobox\Quarantine\C\windows\system32\termsrv32.dll.vir You DO NOT need to be a member to upload, anybody can upload the files. You will not be able to see the file once uploaded. ------------ Go to Start - Run, type cmd (and press OK). At the prompt type or copy/paste the following, pressing Enter after each: cd\ mbr.exe -c 0 64 copy_of_sectors Then type exit and press Enter to close the command window. Then locate that C:\copy_of_sectors, and upload it to SpyKiller as well please. -------------- Click here and download jpshortstuff's SystemLook to your desktop, then click that file to open the scan display. In the open textbox, copy and paste the following (inside the Code box below): Code:
:filefind atapi.sys ------------- Go here and download USEC.at's radix_installer_trial.zip. Then unzip that and click the radixgui.exe to open the scan display. Then without making any changes click the Check button to start the scan. Once it has completed click the Save Log button and save that to a location you can return to. Then click the "X" to close the Radix scanner. !!!Caution - the Radix scanner has many settings and options, including many that can cause quick and permanent corruption to your operating system. Avoid the temptation to try any other options, scans or settings when using it. That will be a very large log file, so just zip a copy of it, then send it to jintan@malwarecrypt.com as an attachment. Please place "Submitted Files -jmterry/cth/rdx" as the email Subject. |

One reason to check that file ComboFix removed is that the name ties in with a service that runs in the DcomLaunch group. Which has been involved in many of these malware shutdown problems. I would like to see what is in that file.

Hi Jintan,
I since I still can't get online with this computer, I won't be able to upload the file as described in your instructions. Is it safe to put it on a thumb drive and upload it from another computter? |

If the files are zipped, they should be rendered non-functional. In a discussion about a different repair creating a new user account was mentioned, and as your user account seems to be partially crippled I would like you to go ahead and create a new one. Just reboot to Safe Mode, but log in with the Administrator account. Then go to Control Panel - User Accounts, and create a new user admin level user account. Reboot to normal mode, and log in as that new user account, and see if things improve.

Hi Jintan,
Sorry this took so long. I created a new account like you suggested, but since the shut down starts at the welcome screen when an account is selected, it didn't really help. I uploaded the files to SpyKiller that you asked for, and I just emailed you the Radix file. Here is the SystemLook file. Thanks again.

I will have to check SpyKiller as soon as I get time. I received the Radix file, thanks. Radix shows some SDT table calls being altered by an Ad-Aware service. I don't recall ever seeing this from Ad-Aware. If it is not a paid version, or you have a key available to reinstall a paid version, I suggest you go ahead and uninstall it, just to remove one extraneous factor there.
The only items of mention from the log are that there is quite a bit of activity related to the remote access helpassistant user account. I now notice this in some of the logs posted here. And some activity from the guest account as well. As malware has been altering at least the helpassistant account lately it would be a good idea to disable that. Go to Start > Run and type: cmd.exe and OK. At the prompt type or copy/paste each of the following, pressing Enter after each: net user helpassistant /active:no net user guest /active:no Then type exit and press Enter to close the command window. But for now go ahead with the Ad-Aware uninstall, being sure to reboot after. |

For some reason the one file uploaded that ComboFix had removed earlier came up as an empty folder. The MBR copy, however, was verified by at least three scans a Mebroot infected. So you will need to decide on repairs at this point. The only measures I have to offer will restore a Windows default MBR there, which will overwrite any existing MBR. If your system has a Dell hidden recovery partition, overwriting the MBR may also remove the means of accessing that. Not that I can offer an alternative, but do need your say so for repairing the MBR.

Hi Jintan,
Sorry for the long delay in my reply. So let me get this right:we need to replace something called the MBR, but doing so might prevent me from reinstalling the operating system at a later date if that becomes necessary. Now I were to reinstall everything that would wipe out all of my data and programs, but would it fix the MBR thing? I don't think that's what I want to do, but I'm just making sure. |

You can always later reinstall the operating system, but just not have access to the pre-installed hidden recovery files you could do that with. There has been some newer repair steps since the last time you posted here we can use, but I will still need your input on the MBR fix please.
|
|
#45
|

OK. Sorry to be a pain, but I'm trying to figure out if it's better to do the MBR fix or just try to save my data and do a full recovery since I don't have access to any operating system files other than what is on that hidden partition. Will I definitely lose access to those files?
