Suspect I may have a trojan/registry problem.

[lenainoz]

Hi. Thank you for having a look at this for me. I am running Windows XP (including SP2),. I have been running Nortons. I noticed that my computer became increasingly slow, slow,slow to start up, slowing down to being barely able to load pages. I was using Mozilla Firefox. Then I noticed that something was causing Nortons auto protect to be switched off at every startup. Since then, various programs have not been operating properly or freeze during operation. These include eg outlook express, Mozilla Firefox. Thinking it might have been a browser issue, I began using Internet explorer (6) instead, but it is still slow. I uninstalled and reinstalled Firefox (after having turned off XP's system restore function). Thinking it may have been a Norton's issue and because Norton's was not functioning properly, I uninstalled nortons and have replaced it for the time being with AVG. I ran Adaware and caught 3 critical bugs and some minor ones which I zapped. I ran Stinger with no result. I ran Spybot with no result and then read some bad bad press on Spybot so I got rid of that completely from my computer. I ran the paid version of xoftspy with no result, then read even worse press on xoftspy so I uninstalled that too!! I know that something is causing my computer programs to not respond after a time and is slowing down my computer and was causing Norton's to switch off the auto protect at startup, but I don't know what it is! I'm thinking trojan in the registry? because of it switching off the Nortons at startup. H E L P! Here is my hijack this log. Very many thanks.

problems!,

Welcome to TSG,

I have sent you an e-mail explaining the procedure. Please do not make any further posts in this thread but if you have any more questions you can ask me by e-mail and I'd be glad to help.

lenainoz,

Spybot Search & Destroy is an excellent program. You've probably been readying about the copycat version someone has created that is not connected with the original program in any way.

I suggest you reinstall it from the following link, to be sure you have the correct one, and perform a scan.

http://majorgeeks.com/download2471.html

Download the trial version of Ewido Security Suite here: http://www.ewido.net/en/download/

Install Ewido.

During the installation, under "Additional Options" uncheck "Install background guard" and "Install scan via context menu".

Launch the program.

It will prompt you to update click the OK button and it will go to the main screen. On the left side of the main screen click update. Click on Start and let it update.


Run Ewido:

Click on scanner

Put a check by the following before you scan:

• Binder
  [*]Crypter
  [*]Archives

Click the Start Scan button to start the scan.

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


Boot back to Windows normally and post another HijackThis log and the log from Ewido please.

 

[lenainoz]

Thanks again for your help thus far. I've followed your instructions. I have the Ewido log here for you followed by the hijack this report just done. Also, and this may mean zip, but I had a Runner Error appear just as I had started downloading Edwido. Runner file name (Kodak Software Updates.exe) lacks a '-' (the app id separator). (Thing is that I was not running either the software nor the auto updater at the time!!) I have had a lot of these Runner Errors of late for this and that. Cheers. leninoz

[Cookiegal]

I don't see anything to account for that in the log.

Can you tell me the exact runner error message you get please?

 

[Cookiegal]

Also, do a couple of on-line virus scans at these links:

http://housecall.trendmicro.com/ - be sure to check auto clean before scanning,

http://www.pandasoftware.com/activescan/

Please post the log created by the Panda scan.

 

[lenainoz]

Hi again. The error message I got is exactly as follows: On the top of the box, the title said - Runner Error. In the box said - Runner file name (Kodak Software Updates.exe) lacks a '-' (the app id separator)

That's it.

I ran Housecall and also Panda. Please note that I didn't see an auto clean option before Housecall started but it seemed to do it anyway. I ran only the virus scan. They now also have a vulnerability scan. I did not run that one. I ran the Panda scan. It said that there was 1 infected file. Here is the log.

Try uninstalling and reinstalling the Kodak program.

Would you mind telling us what solved the problem? This information could be helpful to others in the future.

After following your detailed instructions and finally doing the housecall and panda you recommended etc it seems to have sorted! It's a miracle! Thanks again.

Great!

Delete your temporary files:

In safe mode navigate to the C:\Windows\Temp folder. Open the Temp folder and go to Edit - Select All then Edit - Delete to delete the entire contents of the Temp folder.

Go to Start - Run and type %temp% in the Run box. The Temp folder will open. Click Edit - Select All then Edit - Delete to delete the entire contents of the Temp folder.

Finally go to Control Panel - Internet Options. On the General tab under "Temporary Internet Files" Click "Delete Files". Put a check by "Delete Offline Content" and click OK. Click on the Programs tab then click the "Reset Web Settings" button. Click Apply then OK.

Empty the recycle bin.


Now you should turn system restore off to flush out all previous system restore points, then turn it back on and create a new restore point:

To turn off system restore, on the Desktop, right click on My Computer and click on Properties.
Click the System Restore tab.
Check Turn off System Restore.
Click Apply and then click OK.

Restart your computer, turn System Restore back on and create a restore point.

To create a new restore point, click on Start – All Programs – Accessories – System Tools and then select System Restore.

In the System Restore wizard, select Create a restore point and click the Next button.

Type a name for your new restore point then click on Create.


I also recommend downloading SPYWAREBLASTER & SPYWAREGUARD for added protection.
