Horrible Win32: Downloader NUA Trojan. Please Help!
« on: April 07, 2012, 06:44:20 PM »
Hi Guys,

On Thursday my laptop became infected with a horrible trojan virus and I simply cannot get rid of it.

Its called: Win32: Downloader NUA Trj

What it does:
WILL NOT let me into safe mode atall
Won NOT let me open certain programs like IE
Every 15 Seconds or so or if I try to open a program I will get Avast popping up saying "Trojan Horse Blocked" its not always in the same place though, it moves from program to program, (I've tried to find it but can never locate it)
Opening some programs like VLC results in this error message "error 0xc0000005"

What I did about it:
Plenty of boot scans, sometimes Avast finds it, sometimes not
ran Malware Bytes, Superantispyware, and Spybot search and destroy several times (they like avast were all updated before they ran) again sometimes they found the virus sometimes not.
I have also ran the AVG recovery disc but that didn't seem to do anything.
Uninstalled and reinstalled Avast to simply check I didn't have a fake version running. That too produced no effect

I do have another pc to work from so if you want to suggest something I should download I can. I'm figuring getting into safe mode might be the key but when I try the computer comes up with a blue error message and then powers off again. Whats equally weird is I have disconnected from the internet and avast still pops up telling me its blocked the Trojan Horse.

I hope you guys can help and any help is much appreciated.

Thanks

Jamie

This sucker looks like it's brand new variant.

See this for info: http://home.mcafee.com/virusinfo/virusprofile.aspx?key=1018857#none

McAfee indicates a bootrec /fixmbr is required. See removal instructions.

Since Avast is finding it, is it being quarratined?

hey,

I will follow MCafee's instructions. Avast is "blocking" it, not sure if that means its being quanrantined. I assume it is because its not causing me more issues.

Thanks for your help, I will reply again as soon as the MBR clean has finished.

They frown on anyone giving malware removal advice in this forum other than one of the Avast malware specialists; Essexboy, Jeff, or Oldman. So your going to have to wait till one of them respond.

Hi DonZ63,

Do not give a misreprentation of the facts here. To set things straight- in malware removal routines only qualified removal experts that has been trained officially and sufficiently, like indeed essexboy, oldman, jeffce and some others here, are allowed to guide in and through malware cleansing routines that should be guided in this way.
These officially qualified removal experts have no connection to avast, they are volunteers and users of the avast programs like the others here, but they have been trained through various special online anti-malware universities or boot-camps and are members of Unite for instance, the membership of which organization is a webwide guarantee that the person is a qualified removal expert, and knows what he/she is doing.
This to prevent that untrained users may do more damage than good. The other side of the coin is natuarally that the malware removal experts here will build up a gigantic expertise with all the different sorts of malware that has to be cleansed. Just like others here build up expertise in cold reconnaisance anaysis of malware  through url-scanning methods (Asyn, Pondus, spg Scott, !Donovan, etc.),

Hi

I have the exact same trojan and have no idea how to get rid of it :( It seems to be moving around my computer, avast is picking it up but can't pin it down

Apart from formatting I have no clue how to get rid of this thing, it has already destroyed some files and programs

Please help!
