So I'm getting some virus updates from Avast!... HELP!
« on: October 05, 2012, 11:59:06 PM »
Should I post the names of the viruses here?

I sent them to the chest, but I don't know if I should delete them or not...

I tried to post a image, but I could not figure it out.

Here are the 5 locations:

C:\TDSSKiller_Quarantine\25.07.2012_15.28.08\mbr0000\mbr0000\tsk0000.dta
C:\TDSSKiller_Quarantine\25.07.2012_15.28.08\mbr0000\mbr0000\tsk0001.dta
C:\TDSSKiller_Quarantine\25.07.2012_15.28.08\mbr0000\mbr0000\tsk0003.dta
C:\_OTL\MovedFiles\07252012_152241\C_Windows\assembly\GAC_32\Desktop.ini
C:\_OTL\MovedFiles\07252012_152241\C_Windows\assembly\GAC_64\Desktop.ini

Here are the names of the 5 viruses:
MBR:Pihar-D[Rtk]
MBR:Pihar-D[Rtk]
MBR:Alureon-B[Rtk]
MBR:Win32:Sirefef-PL[Rtk]
MBR:Win32:Sirefef-PL[Rtk]

That's all the information I have.  Is this adequate?

have you run TDSSkiller before?
have you run OTL before?

it seems you have not followed essexboys last instructions to remove his tools when the jobb was done, as what you are detecting is files that was quarantined by those programs

i have sendt him a PM so that he will be back with new instructions   ;)

Hmm the date indicates 25 July ... 

Run OTL and press the cleanup button

Thanks!

Actually, I did follow the instructions and cleaned everything up.  I deleted OTL off of my computer, in fact.  Should I just re install it and then run it again?

On a side note... my browsers keep trying to change their default search browser to search.snap.do.com... I've never used this, so I am confused... it even installed a add-on to Mozilla Firefox.  Is it correlated?

Thanks!
Connor

Lets clear the bad boy called snapdo

Download OTL  to your Desktop
Secondary link
  • Double click on the icon to run it. Make sure all other windows are closed and to let it run uninterrupted.


  • Select All Users
  • Under the Custom Scan box paste this in
netsvcs
BASESERVICES
%SYSTEMDRIVE%\*.exe
/md5start
services.*
explorer.exe
winlogon.exe
Userinit.exe
svchost.exe
winsock.*
/md5stop
CREATERESTOREPOINT


  • Click the Run Scan button. Do not change any settings unless otherwise told to do so. The scan wont take long.
    • When the scan completes, it will open two notepad windows. OTL.Txt and Extras.Txt. These are saved in the same location as OTL.
    • Post  both logs

NOTE: There was no "Extra.Txt" file.

Awesome.  Thanks so much.  Snap.do.com seems to be gone so far...  :)  Here's the new log.
