Email-Worm.Warezov!sd5

[ChrisPhillips]

Hello,

I have a rather serious malware-related problem with my computer. I will provide as much information as I can regarding the issue.

Sometime last week, my little brother hopped on my computer and downloaded a "hack" for an online game he plays. I didn't know about this, as I was in Orlando. I'm assuming his cheat program contained a virus/worm that was embedded in it. I came back with various errors on my computer. Since everything of value is backed up, I thought little of it, and just initiated a destructive system recovery(full computer wipe to factory settings), as this has been my cure-all for many times past, and has worked very well. Even with a full computer wipe, the same problems persisted, so I purchased the heralded "Spyware Doctor" in an effort to fix the problem. Though it seems to be blocking many, many attempts to access files and sites labeled "bad sites", and repetitively reports that it blocks this "Email-Worm.Warezov!sd5" I still get the same errors at startup(pictured), and Spyware Doctor keeps detecting the worm on my system, no matter how many times it perceivably "fixes" the issue. Below are problems I am experiencing:
- The errors pictured below at startup
- Some programs in the startup list cannot start up, an error comes up regarding disabling kernel debugger.(I have not enabled this debugger, I'm assuming the worm at work is doing this)
- At times I cannot access the taskbar, start menu, or anything at the bottom of the screen(suggesting alteration with explorer.exe)
- Often receive a "Windows - No Disk" error
- Following the Windows No Disk error, I am unable to open task manager, confronted with a "Task manager has been disabled by your administrator"

Many resources have suggested starting up in safemode and running a scan. I have tried this, and my computer doesn't seem to be able to open in safemode. As soon as I go through the whole F8 thing at startup and select safe mode(or safemode with networking & with command prompt), it looks like it's about to start up, but before coming up, the system reboots.

I have ran spybot along with countless Spyware Doctor deepscans in an effort to fix this, but to no prevail. Any help would greatly be appreciated.

Thanks in advance,
-Chris

Hi and welcome to TSG,

Please visit Combofix Guide & Instructions for instructions for installing the recovery console and downloading and running ComboFix.

The only thing different from the instructions there is that when downloading and saving the ComboFix.exe I would like you to rename it to Combo-Fix.exe please.

Post the log from ComboFix when you've accomplished that along with a new HijackThis log.

Important notes regarding ComboFix:

ComboFix may reset a number of Internet Explorer's settings, including making it the default browser. This can easily be changed once we're finished.

ComboFix also prevents autorun of ALL CDs, floppies and USB devices to assist with malware removal & increase security. If this is an issue or makes it difficult for you, please let me know. This can be undone manually when we're finished.

Note: During this process, it would help a great deal and be very much appreciated if you would refrain from installing any new software or hardware on this machine, unless absolutely necessary, until the clean up process is finished as it makes our job more tedious, with additional new files that may have to be researched, which is very time consuming.

Also, please do not run any security programs or fixes on your own as doing so may compromise what we will be doing. It is important that you wait for instructions.
