I was wondering why my system freezes, slowdown...

So I went to Trend Micro Housecall and full scan...

McAfee detected 2 malwares ( inside zip) and 2 spywares. One of them are TSPY_Banker..

I'm very worried right now.

Nod32 roots up nothing

Webroot SpySweepers picks up 48 spy cookies, including a trojan... Password something.


So i decided to scan it again,

List.

1. Webroot Spysweeper (Fully updated, version 5.5.7)
2. Eset Nod32
3. Trend Micro Housecall [Detected 4 threats, 2 malwares/2 spywares]
4. HJT is in c:\miranda32\crusty.exe

no rootkit has been detected.


I'm not surprised that AVG Anti-Spyware haven't detected anything.

But i realized i used Webroot SpySweeper.

I decided to save the log of that instead. I hope you are willing to bend a rule for this.

Thank you.
 
Have HJT fix these entries.

O1 - Hosts: 66.98.148.65 auto.search.msn.com
O1 - Hosts: 66.98.148.65 auto.search.msn.es

Other than that it`s clean.

Your Combofix log is also clean.

The malware inside the .zip folder is harmless as long as it remains in the .zip folder. deleting the .zip file will delete the malware.

What files were detected as being infected with the TSPY_Banker?

So after the fix, is it safe for me to use the banking again?

Of course, i will have to change password just for safety.

And few years ago ( Can't you believe it? )

I collected all stardocks applications, including the keygen and zip it up to "StarDock 2005 Desktop.zip"

Apparently, that time i uses Norton :D

Norton
Mcafee
Kaspersky / Bitdefender

Now I'm Nod32 users. :D

So... any advice on the new antivirus? I'm willing to spring to any antivirus at any cost.
 
If you`re going to use kygens etc, then it doesn`t matter what AV you get, you`ll keep getting infected.

Since you use your system for online banking, there`s no way I can guarantee it`s safe to use for such purposes, without being formatted first.

TS doesn`t condone piracy as you well know.

Regards Howard :)
 
I'm not going for piracy anymore. I'm going for legit.

Have any suggestion on the best antivirus ?

My budget is not at any limit.

:D

Plus, i fixed the host things.

What's up with that things anyway ?
