Help Needed as well win32:sirefef-pl and win32:sirefef-zt

[Psybercop]

Greetings,

I got hammered with multiples yesterday (Zeroaccess, the ones above, Zbot.ovr, and anotherone I cannot remember).  This all started with Live Security Platinum hijacking my PC and installing a fake flash update.   Malwarebytes has cleaned some of it off, avast has also removed some things during boot scan as well.  I seem to be left with what is in the title now.  I have run aswMBR, OTL, FSS, and Rogue Killer to this point and these remain.  This seems to be the spot for good help so here I am.

I cannot attach OTL in this post as it is too big (204k) and I am unsure what to remove from it that might not be useful but would reduce the size.

Thanks in advance.

upload OTL to mediafire.com or similar....and post the download link here

Warning This fix is only relevant for this system and no other, using on another computer may cause problems

Be advised that when the fix commences it will shut down all running processes and you may lose the desktop and icons, they will return on reboot

Run OTL

• Under the Custom Scans/Fixes box at the bottom, paste in the following
  
  
  

  
  :Files
  C:\Windows\assembly\GAC_32\Desktop.ini
  C:\Windows\assembly\GAC_64\Desktop.ini
  C:\Users\Psybercop\AppData\Local\Temp\ax2h.exe
  C:\Users\Psybercop\AppData\LocalLow\Sun\Java\Deployment\cache\6.0\11\d6cd60b-317514f7
  C:\Users\PSYBER~1\LOCALS~1\Temp\msimaroro.exe
  C:\Users\Psybercop\AppData\Roaming\rtiet.dll
  C:\Users\Psybercop\AppData\Roaming\bretb.dll
  C:\Users\PSYBER~1\LOCALS~1\Temp\msimaroro.exe
  C:\Users\Psybercop\AppData\Local\{e747e13a-826d-429c-7fc8-a9d9005bb507}
  c:\windows\installer\{e747e13a-826d-429c-7fc8-a9d9005bb507}
  
  :Commands
  [purity]
  [resethosts]
  [emptytemp]
  [CREATERESTOREPOINT]
  [Reboot]
• Then click the Run Fix button at the top
  
• Let the program run unhindered, reboot the PC when it is done
• Open OTL again and click the Quick Scan button. Post the log it produces in your next reply.

THEN

Download and Install Combofix
 
Download ComboFix from one of the following locations:
Link 1
Link 2
 
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.
  
• 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.
3.  If after the reboot you get errors about programmes being marked for deletion then reboot, that will cure it.



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

FINALLY

Re-run OTL with the initial scan script as per the thread

[Psybercop]

Hi and thanks to you both for the responses.  I am attaching the requested logs.  Also I noticed in the OLT after combofix log that c:\windows\installer\{e747e13a-826d-429c-7fc8-a9d9005bb507} appears to be in there and this was the area of concern from the start of this as avast pointed to it as being a source for the trojan, should I be concerened that it is still there?  There are 2 desktop.ini files on my desktop now one with a gear and one with a lock on the icon, are these of concern? or can they be deleted?

I am grateful for this place and people like you!  If I could buy you guys a pint I would, since I can't, just know you have my eternal gratitude!

Computer does not seem to have anny hiccups at this point, and avast has not lost it's mind yet ( I had to delete Mcaffee since it would not let me disable it for combofix).

[Psybercop]

This was to big to include in the previous reply, but it is the OLT log before I ran combofix today.

Thanks again!

[essexboy]

That is now just an empty folder, but I will kill it on principle

Hi,

Attaching the OTR log for this run.  Also, aswMBR is still showing **File: C:\Windows\assembly\GAC_32\Desktop.ini  **INFECTED** Win32:Sirefef-PL [Rtk] and File: C:\Windows\assembly\GAC_64\Desktop.ini  **INFECTED** Win32:Sirefef-PL [Rtk] as being infected still.  Any thoughts?

[essexboy]

OK I will replace them again ..  One question do you know what programme is creating all these temp file ?

Hi,

Not sure which it is/was but I had adobe bridge and a virtual cam running.  I disabled them and the temp files didn't seem to show up this time.  Attaching the OTL file.

Thanks!

[essexboy]

How is the computer behaving now ?

[Psybercop]

Everything is still ok, no alerts and such.  I have not run aswMBR again yet, but all seems well.

[essexboy]

Once you are happy let me know and I will remove my tools

[Psybercop]

Hi,

I think all is well now    Thanks again for all of your help!!

[essexboy]

Subject to no further problems   

I will remove my tools now and give some recommendations, but, I would like you to run for 24 hours or so and come back if you have any problems 

Now the best part of the day ----- Your log now appears clean  :thumbsup:

A good workman always cleans up after himself so..The following will implement some cleanup procedures as well as reset  System Restore points:

Run OTL

• Under the Custom Scans/Fixes box at the bottom, paste in the following
  

  :Commands
  [resethosts]
  [emptytemp]
  [Reboot]

• Then click the Run Fix button at the top
  
• Let the program run unhindered, reboot the PC when it is done

Remove ComboFix

• Hold down the Windows key + R on your keyboard. This will display the Run dialogue box
  
• In the Run box, type in ComboFix /Uninstall (Notice the space between the "x" and "/") then click OK
  
  
  
  
• Follow the prompts on the screen
• A message should appear confirming that ComboFix was uninstalled

Run OTL and hit the cleanup button.  It will remove all the programmes we have used plus itself. 

We will now confirm that your hidden files are set to that, as some of the tools I use will change that

• Go to control panel
• Select folder options (Appearance > Folder options in category view)
• Select the View Tab.
• Under the Hidden files and folders heading select Do not show hidden files and folders.
  
• Click Yes to confirm.
• Click OK.

Your Java is out of date. Older versions have vulnerabilities that malware can use to infect your system.
Please follow these steps to remove older version of Java components and upgrade the application.

 Upgrading Java:

• Go to this site  and click Do I have Java
  
• It will check your current version and then offer to update to the latest version

SPRING CLEAN

To manually create a new Restore Point
 

• Go to Control Panel and select System
  
• Select System
  
• On the left select System Protection and accept the warning if you get one
  
• Select System Protection Tab
  
• Select Create at the bottom
  
• Type in a name i.e. Clean
• Select Create
  

Now we can purge the infected ones

• GoStart > All programs > Accessories > system tools
  
• Right click Disc cleanup and select run as administrator
  
• Select Your main drive and accept the warning if you get one
  
• For a few moments the system will make some calculations
• Select the More Options tab
  
• In the System Restore and Shadow Backups select Clean up
  
• Select Delete on the pop up
  
• Select OK
• Select Delete

Now that you are clean, to help protect your computer in the future I recommend that you get the following free programmes:

Malwarebytes.  Update and run weekly to keep your system clean

Download and install FileHippo update checker and run it monthly it will show you which programmes on your system need updating and give a download link

It is critical to have both a firewall and anti virus to protect your system and to keep them updated. To keep your operating system up to date visit

• Microsoft Windows Update

To learn more about how to protect yourself while on the internet read our little guide  How did I get infected in the first place ?

Keep safe  :wave:

Awesome work, Thanks again!
