Malware alert popping up
« on: January 18, 2014, 11:28:44 PM »
Hello,
I mistakenly tried installing an expansion pack of Hawx 2 and perhaps thats when it happened...Avast started to show up pop ups that it has blocked a malicious site etc.Then I installed Malwarebytes anti malware....It detected malware and removed them(Think so,since I didnt see anything erroneous in the log and I had to reboot my system).But now Antimalware keeps on popping up saying that it has stopped a malicious transmission or something but the process isnt the same everytime(Dwm.exe,rundll32,chrome,utorrent).
What should I do?

Monitoring . . .

@ hrshovon
Beside OTL and aswMBR logs I shall also need the FRST logs ...


Please download Farbar Recovery Scan Tool () 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.


  • Double-click to run it. When the tool opens click Yes to disclaimer.
  • Press Scan button.
  • It will make a log (FRST.txt) in the same directory the tool is run. Please attach it to your reply.
  • The first time the tool is run, it makes also another log (Addition.txt). Please attach it to your reply.

Hi hrshovon,

There is no need to run tool two times. One will do.

FRSTScript (FixList) shall kill the malware and solve the problem. ComboFix is here for additional extra check.
PS: do NOT run ComboFix more than one time ! !




    1. Open notepad and copy/paste the text present inside the code box below.
    To do this highlight the contents of the box and right click on it. Paste this into the open notepad.
    NOTICE: This script was written specifically for this user, for use on that particular machine. Running this on another machine may cause damage to the operating system

There they are.
Btw...as soon as I ran ComboFix,I got a program crash message for "iexplore.exe"...is it okay???
My Taskbar was gone(May be because that program turned off explorer.exe)...is it okay too?

Hi,

Manual delete this folder: c:\programdata\InstallMate.

FRST has been remove active malware and crapware and ComboFix has been remove some mal_extensions that you had installed afterwards + CF was additionaly preform check ...

You are malware free.   Posted logs are now appear cleans and show no signs of active infection., therefore I shall remove used tools:



The following will implement some post-cleanup procedures:

It is necessary to uninstall ComboFix :
  • Click Start (or ) then Run.


    On Windows7 or Vista you may use Start Search field if Run is not available.

  • In the line of text type in (Copy) the following:
Code: [Select]
ComboFix /Uninstall
    Note that there is a space between " ComboFix " and " /Uninstall " .

    • then click OK (or press Enter ).
    Wait for the uninstall process is complete.




    => Please download DelFix by Xplode to your Desktop.

    Run the tool and check the following boxes below;
    Remove disinfection tools
    Create registry backup
    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.




    Btw,
    Quote
    C:\Users\Shovon\AppData\Local\Temp\utt2F8D.tmp (PUP.Optional.OpenCandy) -> Quarantined and deleted successfully.

    This is the leftover, it was created as a result of inattentive installation legitimate applications that contain droper for bad adware.

    still getting the Malware Alert message...the process is utorrent.exe

    You should know what this process is. It's uTorrent. Shutdown uTorrent or do not use it for download malware or ilegal staff.


    This should be it. Cheers,

    hrshovon
