SVCHOST.EXE infected with malware
« on: June 09, 2015, 06:38:22 PM »
Hello

It seems to be a very common problem lately. However, I can't find out any other possibility than coming here and request some help. It has been a week or two that I have been infected by URL such as anythicago & more.
Would you help me to go through ?
thank you very much in advance !!

FRST + Addition attached

Scan with ZOEK

Please download ZOEK by Smeenk and save it to your desktop (preferred version is the *.exe one)
Temporary disable your AntiVirus and AntiSpyware protection - instructions here.

  • Right-click on icon and select Run as Administrator to start the tool.
  • Wait patiently until the main console will appear, it may take a minute or two.
  • In the main box please paste in the following script:
Code: [Select]
createsrpoint;
autoclean;
emptyalltemp;
ipconfig /flushdns;b
  • Make sure that Scan All Users option is checked.
  • Push Run Script and wait patiently. The scan may take a couple of minutes.
  • When the scan completes, a zoek-results logfile should open in notepad.
  • If a reboot is needed, it will be opened after it. You may also find it at your main drive (usually C:\ drive)
Post its content into your next reply.

You cannot have two antivirus products on the same PC. Either uninstall McAfee or Avast.

Hi jonasthing :)

After unintalling McAfee, did you also run the McAfee Consumer Product Removal (MCPR) tool to get rid of all leftovers ?
For instructions see http://service.mcafee.com/FAQDocument.aspx?lc=1033&id=TS101331 and scroll down to step 2.

Greetz, Red.
OS: Win 10 / iOS 17 / Debian 12 / Tails 5

On Demand: Malwarebytes
VPN: NordVPN ( NordLynx ) with Threat Protection ( Lite )

Temporary disable your AntiVirus and AntiSpyware protection - instructions here.

  • Right-click on icon and select Run as Administrator to start the tool.
  • Wait patiently until the main console will appear, it may take a minute or two.
  • In the main box please paste in the following script:
Code: [Select]
createsrpoint;

ffdefaults;
bitsadmin /reset /allusers;b
  • Make sure that Scan All Users option is checked.
  • Push Run Script and wait patiently. The scan may take a couple of minutes.
  • When the scan completes, a zoek-results logfile should open in notepad.
  • If a reboot is needed, it will be opened after it. You may also find it at your main drive (usually C:\ drive)
