Trojan.Nubuler

I some how seem to have gotten a Trojan.Nubuler on my PC. Norton picked it up but could not clean it. Any adivce on how to get rid of it would be awsome! Also, the scan picked up Adware.SpySheriff, its making a ton of pop-ups that are driving me crazy.

==============

Please download SmitfraudFix (by S!Ri)
Extract the content (a folder named SmitfraudFix) to your Desktop.

Open the SmitfraudFix folder and double-click smitfraudfix.cmd
Select option #1 - Search by typing 1 and press "Enter"; a text file will appear, which lists infected files (if present). We’ll get them next step.
Please copy/paste the content of that report into your next reply.

Note : process.exe is detected by some antivirus programs (AntiVir, Dr.Web, Kaspersky) as a "RiskTool"; it is not a virus, but a program used to stop system processes. Antivirus programs cannot distinguish between "good" and "malicious" use of such programs, therefore they may alert the user.

Add remove programs remove Ares as it is the likely source of your infections

===================

You should print out these instructions, or copy them to a NotePad file for reading while in Safe Mode, because you will not be able to connect to the Internet to read from this site.

Next, please reboot your computer in Safe Mode by doing the following :

• Restart your computer
• After hearing your computer beep once during startup, but before the Windows icon appears, tap the F8 key continually;
• Instead of Windows loading as normal, a menu with options should appear;
• Select the first option, to run Windows in Safe Mode, then press "Enter".
• Choose your usual account.

Once in Safe Mode, open the SmitfraudFix folder again and double-click smitfraudfix.cmd
Select option #2 - Clean by typing 2 and press "Enter" to delete infected files.

You will be prompted: "Registry cleaning - Do you want to clean the registry?"; answer "Yes" by typing Y and press "Enter" in order to remove the Desktop background and clean registry keys associated with the infection.

The tool will now check if wininet.dll is infected. You may be prompted to replace the infected file (if found); answer "Yes" by typing Y and press "Enter".

The tool may need to restart your computer to finish the cleaning process; if it doesn't, please restart it into Normal Windows.

A text file will appear onscreen, with results from the cleaning process; please copy/paste the content of that report into your next reply along with a new hijack log.

The report can also be found at the root of the system drive, usually at C:\rapport.txt

Warning: running option #2 on a non infected computer will remove your Desktop background.

DownLoad http://www.downloads.subratam.org/KillBox.zip

Restart your computer into safe mode now. (Tapping F8 at the first black screen) Perform the following steps in safe mode:

Double-click on Killbox.exe to run it. Now put a tick by Standard File Kill. In the "Full Path of File to Delete" box, copy and paste each of the following lines one at a time then click on the button that has the red circle with the X in the middle after you enter each file. It will ask for confimation to delete the file. Click Yes. Continue with that same procedure until you have copied and pasted all of these in the "Paste Full Path of File to Delete" box.

C:\WINDOWS\system32\4700c59b.exe
C:\Program Files\Ares
C:\Documents and Settings\Owner\Local Settings\Application Data\4700c59b.exe
C:\DOCUME~1\Owner\APPLIC~1\STEM~1
C:\WINDOWS\system32\ASEMBL~1\netdde.exe

Note: It is possible that Killbox will tell you that one or more files do not exist. If that happens, just continue on with all the files. Be sure you don't miss any.

START – RUN – type in %temp% - OK - Edit – Select all – File – Delete

Delete everything in the C:\Windows\Temp folder or C:\WINNT\temp

Not all temp files will delete and that is normal
Empty the recycle bin
Boot and post a new log from normal NOT safe mode

Please give feedback on what worked/didn’t work and the current status of your system

 

Which log did you mean? the HJT? If you did, then thats what the attachment is. As far as the status of my computer, All of the annoying pop-ups telling me I need to download this and that to "Clean my system" All the temp files in all the folders deleted fine. IN the part where you wanted me to use killbox C:\DOCUME~1\Owner\APPLIC~1\STEM~1 and
C:\Program Files\Ares
both said that the file did not exsit.

 

Fix this and use killbox to delete the file

O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [4700c59b.exe] C:\WINDOWS\system32\4700c59b.exe

 

I used killbox on the file name. It said that the file did not exsist. I then went into the system32 folder and did a serch for the file and nothing came up. Did something else delete it?

 

We either got it earlier or HJT did

How are things

Turn off restore points, boot, turn them back on – here’s how
