Avast found netdtoh.dll which it identified as malware so I placed this in the chest

I have searched for netdtoh.dll on the internet and can find no info so assume it is a virus

however

now several programs / processes say that cannot run on startup because netdtoh.dll is missing

do I need to stop the computer looking for this file some how?

Thanks

any help would be very greatly appreciated!

PS I have run a registry cleaner and spybot search and destroy

PPS firefox and itunes not working but other programs ok

PPPS netdtoh.dll was in the system32 folder - said something about system32 malware GEN

There have to be some registry associations/hooking to this file and possible a startup entry.

What exactly are the errors displayed ?

Strange that this file name returns zero hits on a google search, considering it is in the system32 folder.

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).

Don't worry about reported tracking cookies they are a minor issue and not one of security, allow SAS to deal with them though. - See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/HTTP_cookie.
Also available a portable version of SAS, http://www.superantispyware.com/portablescanner.html, no installation required.

the errors are when i try to start any program and several on start up

they all take the form

userinit.exe - unable to locate component

x - the application has failed to start because netdtoh.dll was not found. Re-installing the application may fix this problem.


on start up I get pop up boxes as above for all of the following....

userinit.exe, explorer.exe, xRaidSetup.exe, rundll.exe, ashDisp.exe, smax4pnp.exe, schedhlp.exe, xinside.exe, cledx.exe, nokiamusic.exe, nwiz.exe

etc etc

I did think maybe the dll identified as malware was required by the system so i foolishly restored it which got rid of all these error boxes but the netdtoh.dll was again identified by avast as malware

any help as to how I should proceed - much appreciated

interestingly i'm just running the MBAM setup and as I do so I get the same message saying MBAM setup can't locate netdtoh.dll so it can't start

I click on ok and then the setup process for MBAM continues anyway

wierd!

The problem appears to be related to a registry entry that attempts to redirect the userint.exe to use the netdtoh.dll instead.

Quote from: superhans
userinit.exe - unable to locate component

x - the application has failed to start because netdtoh.dll was not found. Re-installing the application may fix this problem.

Unfortunately reinstalling the application won't do anything as the application looks for userint.exe which has been redirected to the missing/removed malware file netdtoh.dll, so we need to try and remove this redirection.

- Also useful as a diagnostic tool - FileHippo Download - HiJackThis and post the contents of the HJT log file here. - HJT Information HiJackThis Tutorial.

Download and run HJT and post the contents of the log file (cut and paste or attach the log file) into this topic, you may need to split it over two or more posts depending on how large it is.

Hopefully this will show the redirection of the userint.exe and we can fix it with HiJackThis.

####
Run MBAM again and allow it to take care of (Remove) the Bad registry value that it found.

the same error comes up for all of the other exe's I listed above and whenever I start many programs

I know that, thisis basically what I said in my last post

Quote from: DavidR
Unfortunately reinstalling the application won't do anything as the application looks for userint.exe which has been redirected to the missing/removed malware file netdtoh.dll, so we need to try and remove this redirection.

If any program refers to the userint.exe file then that is redirected to the netdtoh.dll which is missing resulting in the error.

For example i've just installed HiJack this and got the following error

HiJackThis.exe - Unable to locate component

This application has failed to start because netdtoh.dll was not found. Re-installing the application may fix this problem.


hit ok and the application works fine though

Re: Placed Malware in Chest but now start up programs looking for the dll

That's weird as there is no reference to userinit.exe or netdtoh.dll in the hijackthis log, which blows my guess out of the water. Unless it is hidden from hijackthis, which is becoming more common as it doesn't seem to be keeping pace with malware developments.

You don't appear to have an active firewall - It should be capable of blocking unauthorised outbound Internet Connections. - What is your firewall ?

Fix using HJT:
R3 - URLSearchHook: (no name) - {9CB65206-89C4-402c-BA80-02D8C59F9B1D} - (no file)
I think this is related to the ASK toolbar which many consider spyware as it will gather data on your searches, which might be used for targeted ads. As a search engine it doesn't come close to google anyway. So if you know what the ASK toolbar came with I would disable it or uninstall it and do a custom install without the Ask toolbar.

Other than those, which are unrelated to the problem, I don't see anything obvious.

####
However, there are some google references to userinit.exe being associated with malware, probably in a different location to the legit userinit.exe file which should be in the windows\system32 folder. So try a search on your system for userinit.exe and see where it is found ?

You could try an on-line scanner and see if that reports anything, once you have established connection to the on-line scanner of your choice and just before you do the scan, stop File System Shield, start after completion.

****
Other than the above, I'm at a bit of a loss as to what else to suggest, if this is malware related as it seems it will need stronger tools and someone with more malware removal experience than me.

Below is an analysis of your HJT log showing any known problems :

We couldn't detect any active process of a firewall on your system. Possible reasons:
(1.) You are using the windows firewall or a hardware firewall.
(2.) You are using a firewall of an unknown vendor.
(3.) You are using a firewall, but for unknown reasons it is disabled
(4.) You don't use any firewall at all.
We recommend you to use a firewall. Download and install one or activate windows xp´s own firewall.

Re: Placed Malware in Chest but now start up programs looking for the dll

Windows Firewall is listed as on in the security center

I've run a boot time scan and AVAST didn't find any more virus'

So it's just the error message that I'm getting all the time now looking for that netdtoh.dll

I get these three things looking for netdtoh.dll before the login box pops up

winlogon.exe, services.exe, lscass.exe

then login box

then all the start up services ask for netdtoh.dll

Have attached a jpg of the error message
