On a computer at my friends house they use avast 4 free and the computer did some strange things lately so we did a boot scan. Now Avast has found in total 220 viruses. From these viruses almost 100 are root kits and Trojans. Is there a outbreak that I don't know about? ???
How is this not detected by the normal Avast in the background and only with a bootscan.....?

Hoi EljoPc.nl,
Post omgaand eens even een HJT logfile tekstje bijgevoegd bij je volgende posting.
Er moet een reden zijn voor dit vreemde gedrag, wellicht twee residente av-scanners tegelijk op een machine gezet. In dat geval gaan ze elkaars signatures in de weg zitten. Ook Panda en avast schijnen elkaar in dit opzicht niet te verdragen, daar Panda in dit opzicht niet goed is afgeschermd. Het kan ook wat anders zijn maar een HJT logje analyseren kan geen kwaad, dunkt me,
groetjes,
polonus

Maybe the virus definitions were updated meanwhile...
Difficult to say if we do not have more info (some files names and paths, viruses names)...
-
Thanks for the quick reply, I will get this HJT soon.
-
220 malwares found or 220 infected files found?
Is avast up to date?
What OS? (completely updated?
What other security software?
If avast detects it whith a bootscan, it should normally have detected the things also when using the system in a normal way. Are the standard settings in avast changed? Did the person disabled avast (even for a short time)? Did the person just ignored the avast warning(s)?
-
For more info u can look at his signature below his reply :)
-
Which shows basicly nothing. Although it does show his OS is not up to date.
avast 4.x? Eh there was never a X version :P

Hi Eddy, MrAgent and EljoPc.nl,
I have to fully agree with my friend Eddy. This really does not say a thing, he speaks about a friend's machine. We can speculate what has been going on on that machine to come up with that record number of trojan/worm rootkit finds, but a HJT log will give us a better clue to come at the root of the problem(s)....
Could also have been the results of a fake av solution installation that came with some more of its obscure friends, some rounds of malicious downloaders and you could end up with "quite some unfriendly collection of miscreations" in no time,

It is not his computer but one at a friend's house. So, the signature means little in this case.

Hi CharleyO,
Good observation, from that I must conclude you are developing the analytical mind it needs to be a good malware fighter. Being attentive and reading what the poster says makes half the job of right interpretation,
let us now wait for the HJT log and analyze a bit further, until now there is little beyond speculation what we can do,

I'd say you should fix the entries you see in the added picture...
Additionally you should run MBAM (http://www.malwarebytes.org/mbam.php), SAS (http://www.superantispyware.com/) and/or ST (http://www.spywareterminator.com/de/Default.aspx)
(or you think about a reinstallation of the OS...)

Ok that we'll do, thanks
-
Run SAS in MS safe mode cause this will pickup a lot more in the normal MS way, and this has happen to me twice about 3 months ago.

In addition to what onlysomeone posted above, consider fixing the following :
Platform: Windows XP SP2 (WinNT 5.01.2600)
A newer version of service pack is available. Service packs increase the safety of your system. Visit Microsoft's windowsupdate site to download the newest version of the service pack.

Unnecessary (deactivated) entry that can be fixed.
