Trojan.Fakeavalert

[groc426]

Hi-
I don't won't to hijack this thread, but I have been infected by Trojan.Fakeavalert which G-Stress has also seemed to be infected by (or at least something similar). I've spent hours searching for a fix and stumbled upon this thread/forum, which has been a great help so far. I'm just hoping for a little help myself, but I am new to this. With the permission of the forum members I was hoping for a little help also.

I first found the file, located in C:\resycled\boot.com (which led me to this thread) and deleted the thread according to Cookiegal's instructions, along with searching for Pornovid in my registry (2 of which were found) and deleted. I also searched for kdtcc.exe, of which nothing was found. I installed malwarebytes and scanned, but it did not find anything. Thats all I've done so far. My problem now is that when I try to "open" my C: drive it tells me that it cannot find C:\resycled\boot.com. It will let me "explore" my drive, but not "open" it.

Again if it is okay with the forum users, specifically G-Stress and Cookiegal, I would love some assistance to ensure that I remove this trojan. You're help is greatly appreciated.

Edit: I should also mention that my Symantec AntiVirus realtime protection keeps catching temporary files (.tmp) being produced in my Local Setting\Temp folder. I delete them, but soon a different one will reappear.

Whoops...apparently my thread has been moved. I originally posted in this thread:

I apologize for posting in the same thread. I figured the problems were similar enough. But if anyone can help I would greatly appreciate it!

Edit:
And I believe this is what everyone requires...my hijackthis file:

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.
