Cannot Delete or move virus file
« on: April 26, 2009, 02:21:34 AM »
Hey i have problem in the form of this file:
C:\Windows\System32\ovfsthvcdcqqejrrwospshraopripidcwiqpau.dll
Avast keeps popping up with it, i tried deleting and it still pops up. I tried moving to chest but it says it's being used in a process. Then i did a boot up scan and deleted it, but it still came back. Avast says it's a, Win32:Alureon-V [trj]. I tried looking for the file in the folder but it does not show up. I wish to know whether this is a false alarm or not, thank you.

If it keeps coming back, there is likely to be an undetected or hidden element to the infection that restores or downloads the file again. What is your firewall ?

If you haven't already got this software (freeware), download, install, update and run it and report the findings (it should product a log file).

That means that (I think) Donovansrb 10 has inadvertently posted a scan report in your topic. (Or maybe thought it was pertinent to your issue. I don't know. Without further clarification from the member, I'd ignore it.)

What I'd do:
- Clean your temp and temp internet files. (Use disk cleanup, or ATF cleaner or Ccleaner.)
- Download MBAM http://www.malwarebytes.org/mbam.php , install it, update it, and run a full scan. If during the scan it prompts to restart to remove malware, please do so promptly.
- Post the scan report below.

Hope this does the job.

Thats all the anti-viruses that detect it as malware.

Be sure to do what Tarq57 and DavidR said!

What I'd Do:
Use ComboFix to destroy the virus. To get combofix, go here:
http://download.bleepingcomputer.com/sUBs/ComboFix.exe

Wait until someone posts the INSTRUCTIONS to use ComboFix for this event.

Donovan, without the actual file from the OP's computer, you can not know this.
It could be one of many variants, and could serve as a guide only, nothing more.

Ok, let me put it this way.
Where did you (Donovansrb) get the file from that you submitted to virscan?

Right. So it's a google hit.
You can use that as a guide to what the OP has reported, according to the description of the detection by Avast. But you have no idea what the structure of the file is, since you don't have it on your pc. And if you did have it, you would have no way of knowing that it's the same that the OP has.
The file he (or she) has that Avast has flagged may be a similar beast; it may be the same beast; or it may be a totally different beast or even a FP.
Without more info about the file - not some random file selected from Google - help should not be proffered, unless it is made clear when proffering the help where the "helper" is coming from, ie: what relevance is the info, how pertinent, what to do about it, etc.
Do you see?

Which means what?
Well, if you want to actually help, let people know where you're coming from. I do. You're talking to someone who is worried they have a virus, and it's not going away. This is a concern.
Posting some random excerpt without offering the context is not helping. I'm not trying to discourage you, but this is not a game to the person infected.

So you know what a trojan looks like.
Good for you.
