Title: Delta Homes infection
Post by: Derek Fabb on April 27, 2014, 10:35:33 PM
I'm running Windows 7. One of the users on the PC is infected with Delta Homes.
I've run Malwarebytes Anti Malware, OTC and aswMBR. The log files are attached below.

I cleared out suspicious looknig programs, and addons, also removed dodgy looking search services.

This appears in both Firefox and Chrome.

Any help in removing this will be appreciated.

Thanks

@ Michael,
IFEO registry values are PUP related. The average user is unaware of these entries.



@ Derek Fabb

Hi,
I will be working on your Malware issues. Let's start cleaning with tool known as 'Zoek'. Zoek will target and clean most (if not all) bad entrys.
As additional, it will preform some additional cleaning routines which should contribute to better and faster system response.


Please download zoek.zip or zoek.rar by smeenk ((http://www.mcshield.net/personal/magna86/Images/Zoek_icon.png)) from here (http://hijackthis.nl/smeenk) or here (http://home.kpn.nl/stefsmeenk/zoek.exe) and save it to your Desktop.
Unpack the archive...

I can't get the zoek application to work.

I have downloaded it.
Unzipped it
Turned off the Anti-virus
When I double click the application it goes and restarts windows.

Should I be running this as the infected user?
Title: Re: Delta Homes infection
Post by: Michael (alan1998) on April 28, 2014, 11:36:54 PM
Zoek is perfectly safe to use. Wait for Magna too help you
Title: Re: Delta Homes infection
Post by: magna86 on April 29, 2014, 01:18:50 AM
Hi Derek Fabb,

Have you try to download & run zoek.exe insted? Duble-click on icon to run the tool and then wait for tool to load itself. Sometime this take time.

When the GUI appears to you, paste the above script and hit Run Script button. Then just wait for zoek to finish his fixing. Zoek shall ask you for Windows repoot.

Title: Re: Delta Homes infection
Post by: Derek Fabb on April 30, 2014, 09:14:22 PM
I'm still unable to run the Zoek tool.
I've tried all three of the downloads, the zoek.exe, zoek.zip and zoek.rar.
Anti virus is disabled.
When I double click Zoek.exe I get a Windows box come up asking if I want to allow the program to update the computer.
I click yes
Then I get a box saying that Windows will be closed down in less than one minute.
Windows then restarts.

Thanks

Hi Derek Fabb,

Hm ... then we need to run some alter tools.

This would be easily resolved by simple uninstalling the toolbar from system but since MBAM target this PUP, we have to target the leftovers manually.

First, we'll run AdwCleaner. This tool should target a lot of known Delta Homes variants as well as other known PUP entries and in most cases it will remove large amount of bad things.
In practice, a lot of remains or updated/newer version of bad PUP software knows to left behind in system, untargeted by AdwCleaner. Therefore we need to re-check after this tool. For that check we will use FRST tool. Let's start ...





=> Please download AdwCleaner (http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/download/adwcleaner/) by Xplode and save to your Desktop.

Double click on AdwCleaner.exe to run the tool.
Press OK when asked to close all programs and follow the onscreen prompts.
Press OK again to allow AdwCleaner to restart the computer and complete the removal process.

.



.




=>Please download Farbar Recovery Scan Tool (http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/download/farbar-recovery-scan-tool/) ((http://www.mcshield.net/personal/magna86/Images/FRST_canned.png)) by Farbar and save it to your desktop.

Note: You need to run the version compatibale with your system. If you are not sure which version applies to your system download both of them and try to run them.
Only one of them will run on your system, that will be the right version.


Title: Re: Delta Homes infection
Post by: Derek Fabb on May 01, 2014, 09:02:12 PM
I've successfully run both of these. The log files are attached.

I've run this.
Initially I ran it as my uninfected user. Looking at the log file I saw that only files from user Derek were cleared.
Then I ran it again as the infected account.
Both log files are attached. The second log file is zipped.

I was using a shortcut to Firefox which was pinned to the task bar. That was still going to Delta Homes.
Interestingly, Firefox has gone from the Start menu, but running firefox.exe from C:\Program Files (x86)\Mozilla Firefox goes to the correct home page.
So Firefox looks to be free from this.
I tried IE in the infected account, and that still gets Delta Homes.

I really appreciate your help with this!

Hi,

Preform browser reset back to their defaults. You will not use your browser or personal info/settings. Read here how to do that.

Cool. If there is no problem, I would like to remove my tools.


The following will implement some post-cleanup procedures:

=> Please download DelFix (http://general-changelog-team.fr/fr/downloads/finish/20-outils-de-xplode/9-delfix) by Xplode to your Desktop.

Run the tool and check the following boxes below;
(http://www.mcshield.net/personal/magna86/Images/checkmark.png) Remove disinfection tools
(http://www.mcshield.net/personal/magna86/Images/checkmark.png) Create registry backup
(http://www.mcshield.net/personal/magna86/Images/checkmark.png) Purge System Restore

Click Run button and wait a few seconds for the programme completes his work.
At this point all the tools we used here should be gone. Tool will create an report for you (C:\DelFix.txt)

The tool will also record healthy state of registry and make a backup using ERUNT program in %windir%\ERUNT\DelFix
Tool deletes old system restore points and create a fresh system restore point after cleaning.
