W32.Pinfi HELP!!!

[Akina]

I'm unable to open .exe files and all the images I right click on sites and save can only be saved as .bmp files, and I don't know what else is being infected with due to this virus. Well I went to

http://securityresponse.symantec.co.../w32.pinfi.html

And did everything they suggested twice, yet I still have this virus. I don't understand why.... I want a way for it be removed completely without having to do all this again if I'm going to receive the same result. I'll post what I did exactly so that can clarify more, but I doubt I did anything wrong.

1) I disabled System Restore
2) Virus definations were updated
3) I restarted my computer in safe mode
4) I ran a full virus scan (Using NOD), and then in the end it said there was still one file with the virus on it, then said it was cleaned
5) I deleted the PINF file in the Registry Editor.

I don't believe reformating my computer will help take off the virus... So please help me!

***NOTE*** Disable any active resident Anti-virus program before running the scans

Run at least one of these two on-line anti-virus programs.

As applicable, make sure the "heuristics" and "Auto Clean" boxes are checked.

If anything's found, allow it to clean the file. If it's "uncleanable" DELETE everything the virus scan finds.

Re-start the computer between each scan.

HiJackThis doesn't fix anything, it's an analysis tool.

Well......here we go.


Before we start, let's disable your System Restore. After the infection's been cleaned re-enable system restore.


Disabling System Restore in Windows XP Disable System Restore in Windows ME

IF, for some reason, you lose the ability to use IE or lose your internet connection...open HJT-->"Config"-->"Backups"-->"Restore".


Open HiJackThis. Click "Scan". Put a checkmark next to these:

Close ALL browser windows (except HiJackThis ) and click "Fix checked."


Re-start your computer.

Re-start your computer into safe mode:

How to start your computer in Safe Mode

NEXT:

Because XP will not always show you hidden files and folders by default, Go to Start > Search under "More advanced search options", make sure there is a check by "Search System Folders" and "Search hidden files and folders" and "Search system subfolders"

Next click on "My Computer". Go to "Tools" ---> "Folder Options". Click on the "View" tab and make sure that "Show hidden files and folders" is checked. Also, uncheck "Hide protected operating system files" and "Hide extensions for known file types" . Now click "Apply to all folders"

Click "Apply" then "OK".


NEXT:

Find and delete:

WinUpdt.exe






Also 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.

http://www.computerhope.com/issues/ch000225.htm

Next navigate to the C:\Documents and Settings\ <user's name>\Local Settings\Temp folder. Open the Temp folder and go to 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. Now click the "Delete Cookies" button and click OK.


Empty the Recycle Bin

Re-enable System Restore.

Re-start your computer and post another HJT log.

I was unable to find WinUpdt.exe. I used search but no luck

Right now it seems the virus is gone since I can play .exe files from the internet and save pictures not as .bmp files again, but that happened before when someone helped me before on these forums then after a day or two it came back. So I want to make sure it won't reappear to not go through this each day. Thanks for helping me.

[FinestRanger]

If it returns, let me know what the exact location it's residing.

 

[Akina]

I cant play .exe files that well again

 

[Akina]

And the other problems have come back... See, I knew it'd return within a day or two.

 

[FinestRanger]

Restart and post a fresh HiJackThis scan.

[FinestRanger]

Sorry for the delay...internet service was out.

Do you still need assistance?

 

[Akina]

It's okay, thank you for remembering about me ^_^ It seems everything is okay again!! Thank you so much! You don't know for how long I've been struggling with this virus and how much I've gone through. Again, thank you. Can I contact you in case something happens again?

 

[FinestRanger]

Can I contact you in case something happens again?

You can Personal Message (PM) me, however it'd be best for you to start another thread if you have future problems...you'll have more people review it, which will be faster for you.

You're welcome. Glad to hear everything's running well.
