I have a virus and i NEED help getting rid of it... please :)
« on: November 07, 2011, 07:08:07 AM »
I have a virus on my computer, i have tried several programs to find and remove it, it just keep etting worse. ON top of that i tried to plug in my external hardrive to put a file on it so i had it backed up and i could wipe my computer and re-install my back up, and it infected 2 of my backup files while it was plugged in and my full back up wont work now. I have acess to all of my back up files except for two of them, but when i try and do it, it skips random files. I have tried microsoft security essentials, hijackthis, and avast. they have all found things and are not able to remove them. it is at the point where i cannot open programs when im not in safe mode. please help me.

1. Send the c:\Windows\System32\u8adm8.com sample to avast as a Undetected Malware:
Open the chest and right click in the Chest and select Add, navigate to where you have the sample and add it to the chest (see image1). Once in the chest, right click on the file and select 'Submit to virus lab...' complete the form and submit, the file will be uploaded during the next update. Note: manually adding to the chest doesn't remove them from the original location, so they still have to be dealt with in that location.
Or
Send the sample to virus (at) avast (dot) com zipped and password protected with the password in email body, a link to this topic might help and false positive/undetected malware in the subject.

2. You say you removed them, but the log shows 'no action taken.' if so - Run MBAM again and allow it to deal with the detections, e.g. Remove selected, image2.

3. Continue with the other tools (OTL) and post the log, as quick as you are able to as essexboy is on UK time (now 10:35pm), so he won't be on-line for much longer.
Windows 10 Home 64bit/ Acer Aspire F15/ Intel Core i5 7200U 2.5GHz, 8GB DDR4 memory, 256GB SSD, 1TB HDD/ avast! free 24.3.6108 (build 24.3.8975.762) UI 1.0.801/ Firefox, uBlock Origin, uMatrix/ MailWasher Pro/ Avast! Mobile Security

yes i did click the remove button.. but it removed something that made my computer not start again.. and i had to do a system restore... so i lost the first log where i removed them and restarted my computer..

You have the consrv malware - please do not delete the file - let me do it cleanly

Download and Install Combofix
 
Download ComboFix from one of the following locations:

VERY IMPORTANT !!! Save ComboFix.exe to your Desktop
 
* IMPORTANT - Disable your AntiVirus and AntiSpyware applications, usually via a right click on the System Tray icon. They may otherwise interfere with our tools. If you have difficulty properly disabling your protective programs, refer to this link here
  • Double click on ComboFix.exe & follow the prompts.
  • Double click on ComboFix.exe & follow the prompts.
  • Accept the disclaimer and allow to update if it asks




  • When finished, it shall produce a log for you.
  • Please include the C:\ComboFix.txt in your next reply.[/b]
Notes:
1. Do not mouse-click Combofix's window while it is running. That may cause it to stall.
2. Do not "re-run" Combofix. If you have a problem, reply back for further instructions.


Please make sure you include the combo fix log in your next reply as well as describe how your computer is running now
