    Tidserv virus help? not sure what to do :(

    Ive read conflicting information on how to remove this and what to use. My symantec antivirus picked this up this morning and im have trouble dealing with it. My internet explorer keeps randomly opening and closing, but i can not open it myself. i use firefox any way. Would like to know what to do? I have attached a highjack this log, but from here im pretty uneducated with dealing with these things.

    Thanks

    Welcome to TechSpot spuratic. I will help with the malware. I do ask though that you stay within out instructions, which you appear not to have read.
    Each forum has their own set of steps for preliminary malware removal. Ours can be found here: http://www.techspot.com/vb/topic58138.html
    This is because each fix is customized to the system it is 'fixing' and the malware that needs to be removed. And you will need to be patient.

    Your searches are being routed through a site in the Ukraine. I'm going to move some of the malware and then set up steps for you to follow:

    Please download OTMovit by Old Timer and save to your desktop.
    • Double-click OTMoveIt3.exe to run it. (Vista users, please right click on OTMoveit3.exe and select "Run as an Administrator")
    • Copy the file paths below to the clipboard by highlighting ALL of them and pressing CTRL + C (or, after highlighting, right-click and choose Copy):

      Code:
      :Processes	
      c:\users\spuratic\ntuser.dat{56471034-32db-11df-97eb-001b38b0739e}.TM.blf
      :Services
      
      :Reg
      
      :Files 
      C:\Users\spuratic\AppData\Local\Temp\Windows-Update-KB327462-x86-ENU.exe
      C:\Users\spuratic\AppData\Local\Temp\nspF49D.tmp\nsF5D6.tmp
      C:\Users\spuratic\AppData\Local\Temp\mrt.exe
      C:\Users\spuratic\AppData\Local\Temp\Mkh.exe
      c:\windows\system32\YoItzVlad22222.tmp
      c:\windows\system32\Fubar.tmp
      C:\__MACOSX
      
      :Commands
      [purity]
      [emptytemp]
      [start explorer]
      [Reboot]
    • Return to OTMoveIt3, right click in the "Paste Instructions for Items to be Moved" window and choose Paste.
    • Click the red Moveit! button.
    • A log of files and folders moved will be created in the c:\_OTMoveIt\MovedFiles folder in the form of Date and Time (mmddyyyy_hhmmss.log). Please open this log in Notepad and post its contents in your next reply.
    • Close OTMoveIt3
    If a file or folder cannot be moved immediately you may be asked to reboot the machine to finish the move process. If you are asked to reboot the machine choose Yes.
    ==============================
    When you have finished, run both of the following:
    [IMG]
    Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware
    • Please download Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware from from HERE
    • Double-click mbam-setup.exe and follow the prompts to install the program.
    • At the end, be sure a checkmark is placed next to
      [o] Update Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware
      [o] and Launch Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware
    • then click Finish.
    • If an update is found, it will download and install the latest version.
    • Once the program has loaded, select Perform Quick scan, then click Scan.
      * When the scan is complete, click OK, then Show Results to view the results.
    • Be sure that everything is checked, and click Remove Selected.[
      *] When completed, a log will open in Notepad. please attach this log with your reply
      [o] If you accidentally close it, the log file is saved here and will be named like this:
      [o] C:\Documents and Settings\Username\Application Data\Malwarebytes\Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware\Logs\mbam-log-date (time).txt
    ================
    [IMG]
    SuperAntiSpyware Home Edition Free Version
    • Please download SuperAntiSpyware from HERE
    • Launch SuperAntiSpyware and click on 'Check for updates'.
    • Wait for the updates to be installed
    • On the main screen click on 'Scan your computer'.
    • Check: 'Perform Complete Scan then Click 'Next' to start the scan.
    • Superantispyware will now scan your computer,when it's finished it will list all/any infections found.
    • Make sure everything found has a checkmark next to it,then press 'Next'.
    • Click on 'Finish' when you've done.

    It's possible that the program will ask you to reboot in order to delete some files.

    Obtain the SuperAntiSpyware log as follows:
    Click on 'Preferences'.
    Click on the 'Statistics/Logs' tab.
    Under 'Scanner Logs' double click on 'SuperAntiSpyware Scan Log'.
    It will then open in your default text editor,such as Notepad.
    Attach the notepad file here on your reply

    Leave the 3 logs. There are steps 5 and 6.
    I will also have you remove all the old Java versions, which are each vulnerabilities.

    Please do not run any other cleaning programs unless I ask you to. Do not use a Registry cleaner or make ant changes in the Registry.

    Well, that didn't work very well! I thought you could get by without Combofix, but no: I can set the entries up for removal from that:
    Please download ComboFix HERE:
    • With ComboFix, at the download window, please rename it to Combo-Fix(.exe) before downloading it.
      Important! Save the renamed download to your desktop.
    • Please disable all security programs, such as antiviruses, antispywares, and firewalls.
    • Double click on the setup file on the desktop to run
    • If prompted to download and install the Recovery Console, please do so.
      (Please note: If the Microsoft Windows Recovery Console is already installed, ComboFix will continue it's malware removal procedures.)
    • If prompted to update, please allow.
    • Click on Yes, to continue scanning for malware.
    • When finished, it will produce a log.Please include the C:\ComboFix.txt in your next reply.
    Notes:

    • 1.Do not mouse-click Combofix's window while it is running. That may cause it to stall.
      2. ComboFix may reset a number of Internet Explorer's settings.
      3. Combofix prevents autorun of ALL CD, floppy and USB devices to assist with malware removal & increase security.
      4. CF disconnects your machine from the internet. The connection is automatically restored before CF completes its run.

    Ok...doing so right now.

    Okay, we're going to back up for a minute. I don't want to start doing something with a file if it isn't needed. GMER shows 2 suspicious files but the first Combofix didn't indicate either of them. You can delete the exe file for Combofix on the desktop- the first log- then run Combofix again. I want to see if there's anything about 'atapi.'

    After Combofix, please do this online AV scan:
    Run Eset NOD32 Online AntiVirus Scanner HERE
    • Tick the box next to YES, I accept the Terms of Use.
    • Click Start
    • When asked, allow the Active X control to install
    • Disable your current Antivirus software. You can usually do this with its Notification Tray icon near the clock.
    • Click Start
    • Make sure that the option "Remove found threats" is Unchecked, and the option "Scan unwanted applications" is checked
    • Click Scan
    • Wait for the scan to finish
    • Re-enable your Antivirus software.
    • A logfile is created and located at C:\Program Files\EsetOnlineScanner\log.txt. Please include this on your post.
    Are you actually having any computer system problems at this point? Redirects? Pop-ups and so on?
  15. spuratic Newcomer, in training Posts: 24

    Hello

    I am running the online scan right now. To answer your question about pop-ups...Yes, they started with internet explorer and have moved on to my fire fox. They just randomly pop-up all the time now..10-15 per day. I also noticed today that internet explorer shortcut has been added to my desktop and i can not remove it (after deleting it is back after re-boot) will send both of the logs as soon as the ESET Online scanner is done..thanks
  16. spuratic Newcomer, in training Posts: 24

    Still scanning, but found trojan.

    WIN32/OLMARIK.WW Trojan has been found by the ESET online scanner. Its not even half way done though and im 1hr 21min into it.
  17. spuratic Newcomer, in training Posts: 24

    Finally done with the ESET...here are the cobo-fix and ESET logs

    It appears that you are also getting help in this forum: 04-09-2010, 10:56 PM. You received a reply which you have not acknowledged.

    While we appreciate that you very likely posted at multiple forums in order to ensure a response, that only serves to tie up the time of multiple helpers who could be using that time to help someone else who also has problems. Although there are many forums that handle HijackThis logs, there are not so many helpers; most of us help out at several forums. In addition, the results may not work out so well when you're following different instructions from different helpers. They may suggest different approaches for the same problem, all of which may be good; however, system conflicts may arise if different fixes for the same problem are applied simultaneously.

    In the future, for your sake as well as ours, please refrain from requesting help from multiple forums. Choose one, and stick with that one until they've resolved your problem.
