It has regenerated. I believe the autorun.inf file is reloading it.

I assume your I drive is a removable drive like a flash or thumb drive. If you have access to it, please connect it and then do this:


I'm attaching a MountPoints Diagnostic.zip file to this post. Save it to your desktop. Unzjip it and double click the MountPoints Diagnostic.bat file and let it run. It will create a report in Notepad named Diagnostic.txt. Please upload the Diagnostic.txt file as an attachment.

Well, you should tell him that it's infected as he will be passing the infection around to anyone who uses it.

Please run the previous program even though you don't have the flash drive so we can clean up your computer.

That's exactly what I thought. The autorun.ini file is reloading the infection.

1. Please download The Avenger by Swandog46 to your Desktop.
  • Click on Avenger.zip to open the file
  • Extract avenger.exe to your desktop

2. Copy all the text contained in the code box below to your Clipboard by highlighting it and pressing (Ctrl+C):

Quote:
Files to delete:
C:\WINDOWS\system32\autorun.ini
C:\WINDOWS\system32\SSVICHOSST.exe

Note: the above code was created specifically for this user. If you are not this user, do NOT follow these directions as they could damage the workings of your system.


3. Now, start The Avenger program by clicking on its icon on your desktop.
  • Under "Script file to execute" choose "Input Script Manually".
  • Now click on the Magnifying Glass icon which will open a new window titled "View/edit script"
  • Paste the text copied to clipboard into this window by pressing (Ctrl+V).
  • Click Done
  • Now click on the Green Light to begin execution of the script
  • Answer "Yes" twice when prompted.
4. The Avenger will automatically do the following:
  • It will Restart your computer. ( In cases where the code to execute contains "Drivers to Unload", The Avenger will actually restart your system twice.)
  • On reboot, it will briefly open a black command window on your desktop, this is normal.
  • After the restart, it creates a log file that should open with the results of Avenger’s actions. This log file will be located at C:\avenger.txt
  • The Avenger will also have backed up all the files, etc., that you asked it to delete, and will have zipped them and moved the zip archives to C:\avenger\backup.zip.
5. Please copy/paste the content of c:\avenger.txt into your reply along with a fresh HijackThis log.



Then run the entire WinpFind3u fix again, the same as you did the last time.


Reboot and post a new HijackThis log please.

Please run WinpFind again but with this configuration:

Reboot to safe mode by pressing F8 at boot time & select safe mode in the list on the black screen
  • Open the WinPFind3u folder and double-click on WinPFind3U.exe to start the program.
    • In the Processes group click Non-Microsoft
    • In the Win32 Services group click Non-Microsoft
    • In the Driver Services group click Non-Microsoft
    • In the Registry group click Non-Microsoft
    • In the Files Created Within group click 60 days Make sure Non-Microsoft only is CHECKED
    • In the Files Modified Within group select 30 days Make sure Non-Microsoft only is CHECKED
    • In the File String Search group select Non-Microsoft
    • In the additional scans section, please select only these
      • Reg - Desktop Components
      • Reg - Disabled MS Config Items
      • Reg - Safeboot Options
      • Reg - Security Settings
      • Reg - Software Policy Settings
      • Reg - Uninstall list
      • File - Additional Folder Scans
  • Now click the Run Scan button on the toolbar.
  • The program will be scanning huge amounts of data so depending on your system it could take a long time to complete. Let it run unhindered until it finishes.
  • When the scan is complete Notepad will open with the report file loaded in it.
  • Save that notepad file and upload it here as an attachment please.

Try running Killbox on this file and see if that will speed things up for running WinpFind3u.

Rather than booting to safe mode, run it in normal mode but use these instructions:
  • Please double-click Killbox.exe to run it.
  • Select:
    • Delete on Reboot
    • then Click on the All Files button.
  • Please copy the file paths below to the clipboard by highlighting ALL of them and pressing CTRL + C (or, after highlighting, right-click and choose copy):

    [b]C:\WINDOWS\system32\Flashy.exe

  • Return to Killbox, go to the File menu, and choose Paste from Clipboard.
  • Click the red-and-white Delete File button. Click Yes at the Delete on Reboot prompt. Click OK at any PendingFileRenameOperations prompt.

If your computer does not restart automatically, please restart it manually.


Boot back into safe mode and see if you can run WinpFind3u now.
