Help removing Trojan.WinReg.LowZones.F

[godot666]

Hi, there. I'm infected with Trojan.WinReg.LowZones.F and can't seem to remove it. Any help greatly appreciated!

I've tried ewido, adaware, spybot, trojan hunter, symantec antivurs... nothing gets rids of it.

Using Windows XP

Here's my HJT log file:

Dunno, about the trojan....but I did find some nasty things in your log, including a dialer.

Get rid of these:

Hi godot666, Welcome to TSG!!

Run HJT again and put a check in the following:

Close all applications and browser windows before you click "fix checked".

Restart in safe mode

Open Windows Explorer. Go to Tools, Folder Options and click on the View tab. Make sure that "Show hidden files and folders" is checked. Also uncheck "Hide protected operating system files". Now click "Apply to all folders" Click "Apply" then "OK".

Delete these files:
C:\WINNT\whih.exe
C:\WINNT\qled.exe
C:\WINNT\rufeb.exe
C:\mtask32plus.exe


Reboot.

Download HJT again from this link: Hijackthis and post another log.

Reconfigure Windows XP to show hidden files:
Open My Computer. Select the Tools menu and click Folder Options. Select the View Tab.
Under the Hidden files and folders heading select "Show hidden files and folders".
Uncheck the "Hide protected operating system files (recommended)" option.
Uncheck the "Hide file extensions for known file types" option.

Click Start - Run - and type in:

services.msc

Click OK.

In the services window find: Windows Process Moniter

Right click and choose "Properties". On the "General" tab under "Service Status" click the "Stop" button to stop the service. Beside "Startup Type" in the dropdown menu select "Disabled". Click Apply then OK. Exit the Services utility.

Close all applications and browser windows before you click "fix checked".

Restart in safe mode

* Run Ewido:

• Click on scanner
• Click the Start Scan and the scan will begin.
• During the scan it will prompt you to clean files, click OK
• When the scan is finished, look at the bottom of the screen and click the Save report button.
• Save the report to your desktop

* Start Ccleaner and click Run Cleaner

* Restart back into Windows normally now.


* Run ActiveScan online virus scan here

When the scan is finished, anything that it cannot clean have it delete it. Make a note of the file location of anything that cannot be deleted so you can delete it yourself.
- Save the results from the scan!

Post a new HiJackThis log along with the results from ActiveScan and the ewido scan
