    • The WAR Against Malware
Ok, so I did LOTS of virus scans repeatly and it came up with 3/40 viruses on eatch one. The question is, on Spybot S&D, it detected 6 viruses and when I scanned again, it detected 10 COMPLETELY DIFFERENT VIRUSES! I'm like: WHAT THE?! WHY DID SPYBOT HAVE TO SCARE ME AT THE VERY LAST BIT OF THE SCAN!?!?!?!??!?!?!??! REMOVE THE STUPID VIRUSES, SPYBOT!!!!!!!!

The question is, how can all these viruses reapear when I didn't download anything? Do I have a virus that downloads viruses!?!?!?!?!? If so, why isn't any of the Anti-Viruses detecting it?

If you suspect a virus down-loader then make sure avast and all your other security applications are up to date. Disconnect from the Internet (preferably unplug the system from the network).

Run a Boot-time Scan in avast and mark down the results. If you are not certain about the file (if the system needs it or not) opt for no action rather than deleting or sending to the chest. If you think it's a virus, send to the chest. This will prove valuable if the files are important and need to be restored.

If nothing pops-up during the avast scan, Run Malwarebytes Anti-Malware and Super Anti-Spyware.

Report back with findings (name of the virus, path where the file is found ie c:\folder\infectedFile, etc.)

  • Some days..... MOS...this bug's for you
Hi there,

We are going to need some information. Let's start with this scan tool.


.
Click here to download HJTInstall.exe
Please follow the prompts to ensure it is installed in the proper folder and
a shortcut is created.
  • Save HJTInstall.exe to your desktop.
  • Doubleclick on the HJTInstall.exe icon on your desktop.
  • By default it will install to C:\Program Files\Trend Micro\HijackThis.
  • Continue to click Next in the setup dialogue boxes until you get to the Select Addition Tasks dialogue.
  • Put a check by Create a desktop icon then click Next again.
  • Continue to follow the rest of the prompts from there.
  • At the final dialogue box click Finish and it will launch Hijack This.
  • Click on the Do a system scan and save a logfile button. It will scan and the log should open in notepad.
  • Click on "Edit > Select All" then click on "Edit > Copy" to copy the entire contents of the log.
  • Come back here to this thread and Paste the log in your next reply.
  • DO NOT have Hijack This fix anything yet. Most of what it finds will be harmless or even required.
Post the log that is produced.

.

  • Some days..... MOS...this bug's for you
Hi

A bit a spyware

C:\WINDOWS\BBSTORE\DSS\DSSAGENT.EXE
http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/startups/dssagent.exe-1446.html

.
You will need to disable Spybot's Tea Timer function, if it is running, as it may interfere. - this is a two step process.
First step:
  • Right-click the Spybot Icon in the System Tray (looks like a blue/white calendar with a padlock symbol)
  • If you have the new version 1.5, Click once on Resident Protection, then Right click the Spybot icon again and make sure Resident Protection is now Unchecked.  The Spybot icon in the System tray should now be now colorless.
  • If you have Version 1.4, Click on Exit Spybot S&D Resident
Second step, For Either Version :
  • Open Spybot S&D
  • Click Mode, choose Advanced Mode
  • Go To the bottom of the Vertical Panel on the Left, Click Tools
  • then, also in left panel, click Resident shows a red/white shield.
  • If your firewall raises a question, say OK
  • In the Resident protection status frame, Uncheck the box labelled Resident "Tea-Timer"(Protection of over-all system settings) active
  • OK any prompts.
  • Use File, Exit to terminate Spybot
  • Reboot your machine fully for the changes to take effect.
