| Anomalous activity on computer Hi, First I'd like to apologize for not attaching any logs. I'm not sure if my problem is a legitimate concern, and I was hoping to get an initial opinion before downloading any programs or posting any logs (I'm a bit paranoid about posting these logs online, is there any information in them that would compromise my computer's security?). Lately I've been noticing some unusual behaviour from my computer, the strangest of which happened a few days ago. I found that whenever I would leave my computer idle, when I returned it would ask me for a username and password, something it had never done previously. The username was already provided but the password field was blank. I tried a few routine passwords I use but was eventually able to get passed the screen by just leaving the password field blank and pressing okay. In addition to this, my computer now immediately logs into my profile when I start up my computer, rather than asking me to select it (there's only one profile). The day before these two changes happened I downloaded two video editing related programs (fraps and handbrake) that seemed legitimate, and I think during the installation of handbrake I was forced to download .net framework 4 (I think I previously had 2.5?). I also ran a disk error checking which I hadn't done for a while. Another anomalous behaviour I've noticed over the past little while is that my virus scan, avg, always reports that my last scan was "not yet scanned", despite that I scan pretty regularly. Is any of this cause for concern? I'm running windows xp. |

| I hate to keep bumping this, but I really could use some help. There are a number of things I want to do on my computer but am choosing not to for fear of my information getting out. Have I not received a reply because I haven't posted the logs? If so, please let me know (ideally along with a reassurance that there's no danger associated with posting them). Thanks. |

| Hi Qwelps, and welcome to TSG, my name is Mark and I will be helping you. Sorry for the delay but there simply are not enough volunteer helpers to cope with the demand. First I must assure you that none of the logs we ask for will contain anything that can be used to compromise your systems security. Please follow these instructions and post both the logs. STEP 1 Please download Malwarebytes Anti-Malware
Note: A 14-day trial of Malwarebytes Anti-Malware PRO is available as an option when first installing the free version so all users can test the real-time protection component for a period of two weeks. When the limited time period expires those features will be deactivated and locked. Enabling the Protection Module feature again requires registration and purchase of a license key that includes free lifetime upgrades and support. If you continue to use the free version, there is no requirement to buy a license...you can just use it as a stand-alone scanner. NOTE: Some types of malware will target Malwarebytes and other security tools to keep them from running properly. If that's the case, use Malwarebytes Chameleon and follow the onscreen instructions. The Chameleon folder can be accessed by opening the program folder for Malwarebytes Anti-Malware (normally C:\Program Files\Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware or C:\Program Files (x86)\Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware). STEP 2 We need to see some additional information about what is happening in your machine. Please download DDS by sUBs from one of the following links and save it to your desktop.` DDS is a specialized tool that produces a Psuedo HijackThis Report (a scaled down and simplified version of 'HJT lines') that provides the same + more information in a condensed format.NOTE If your Anti Virus attempts to block the download please disable it following the instructions at the end of this guide.
After downloading the tool, disconnect from the internet and disable all antivirus protection. Run the scan, enable your A/V and reconnect to the internet. Information on A/V control HERE |

| Hi Mark, thanks for the assistance. A couple comments about the Malwarebytes process. First, I did not follow the bleepingcomputer.com instructions exactly, as they conflicted with the ones you provided. I did a quick scan as you instructed rather than the full scan instructed on bleepingcomputer. Second, I did not understand this part of your instructions: "Don't forget to check for database definition updates through the program's interface (preferable method) before scanning". Third, when updating malwarebytes, I buttoned through the update complete message a bit quickly. I'm fairly certain it said the update was successful, but is there any way to check if I have the most current version? Here is the malwarebytes log: Malwarebytes Anti-Malware 1.61.0.1400 www.malwarebytes.org Database version: v2012.07.07.05 Windows XP Service Pack 3 x86 NTFS Internet Explorer 6.0.2900.5512 User :: N-0A44DCE9BF284 [administrator] 7/7/2012 11:30:59 AM mbam-log-2012-07-07 (11-30-59).txt Scan type: Quick scan Scan options enabled: Memory | Startup | Registry | File System | Heuristics/Extra | Heuristics/Shuriken | PUP | PUM Scan options disabled: P2P Objects scanned: 207100 Time elapsed: 8 minute(s), 18 second(s) Memory Processes Detected: 0 (No malicious items detected) Memory Modules Detected: 0 (No malicious items detected) Registry Keys Detected: 0 (No malicious items detected) Registry Values Detected: 0 (No malicious items detected) Registry Data Items Detected: 0 (No malicious items detected) Folders Detected: 0 (No malicious items detected) Files Detected: 0 (No malicious items detected) (end) And here is the DDS log .

| Oh, also for malwarebytes, the last steps were different. I don't remember seeing any results, though I don't think I looked since I believe a message popped up saying nothing was found. Should I scan again and look for the "show results" button? I also had a few programs open while dds was running (just things relating to this), so I hope that's not a problem.

| Nothing of any significance is showing up in the logs. Please follow the instructions below and post the log from Security Check, Eset will only produce a log if it finds anything, be aware the Eset scan can take several hours to complete. The instructions for Malwarebytes need updating, thanks for pointing that out. It automatically checks for updates when you launch it, older versions didn't. The database I just checked is on 12.07.07.06 so you may have just missed a new update. Not to worry though, Eset is likely to find anything that Malwarebytes may have missed. Download Security Check by screen317 from Here or Here. Save it to your Desktop. Double click SecurityCheck.exe (Vista or Windows 7 users right click and select "Run as Administrator") and follow the onscreen instructions inside of the black box. Press any key when asked. A Notepad document should open automatically called checkup.txt; please post the contents of that document. Eset online scan instructions. IMPORTANT ---> Please make sure you follow the instruction to uncheck the box next to Remove found threats. Eset will detect anything that looks even remotely suspicious, this can include legitimate program files. If you do not uncheck the box, as instructed, Eset will automatically remove all suspect files which could leave some of your software inoperative. If you make a mistake these files can be restored from quarantine, but it would be preferable not to add any extra work to the clean up of your system.

| Please always make a new post if you wish to add further information as I only get notified when a new post is added and may miss something of importance that you may have added. As the scan came up clean there is nothing to worry about. Usually you would need to click on the Show Results button to display the log for copying into your posts here. As for DDS, no problem there either. |

| I am running AVG 2012, there are no instructions on the link provided on how to disable that specific version. I can right click on the AVG icon at the bottom right of my screen and check an option "Temporarily disable AVG protection". Should I just do that, or is there a particular thing that needs to be done? |

| Did the Eset scan. A couple of comments. First, at the start (along with the option to remove found threats) I think there was an option to scan archives or something. I left this unchecked. Was this the correct thing to do? Second, when the scan was going it jumped from 49% completion directly to 99%. Here are the results C:\Documents and Settings\User\Desktop\Unused\MsgPlusLive-485.exe a variant of Win32/MessengerPlus application |

| It's looking like your system is clean of any infections. The jump on the Eset scan completion monitor is normal. The setting to check Archives was not required. Just to be sure we had better check the file that was detected. Go to one of the following online services that analyzes suspicious files:In the "File to Scan" (Upload or Submit) box, click the "browse" button and locate the following file: C:\Documents and Settings\User\Desktop\Unused\MsgPlusLive-485.exe <- this file Click "Open", then click the "Submit" button. If you get a message saying "File has already been analyzed", click Reanalyze or Scan again. -- Post back with the results of the file analysis in your next reply. ___________________________________________________________________ Internet Explorer Your Internet Explorer is out of date, the latest version for XP has a better level of security which helps to stop malicious software from reaching your PC.
