Aurora popup will not go away

[Lunatic]

A day ago I started getting a popup at random, even when internet explorer was not open. I got rid of the IE, installed firefox.

I ran adaware and spy bot and norton antivirus, all in safe mode.
I also ran hijackthis while in safe mode, aslo this other program someone said to try. Ill post both logs. The other program is called "Find It's"

laptop specs are as follow:
XP Home SP1
Mobile AMD Athlon XP 1789MHz
HP Pavilion ze4400
192MB PC2100 DDR SDRAM
40GB 4200RPM HHD

After looking it up online, I found out that Nail.exe is part of this aurora popup. But I have done several searches both in safe mode and normal mode and came up with nothing.

First off, you need IE for Windows Updates. Second check this thread and make sure you follow the exact directions.

After that run Hijack-This then post your log.

 

[Lunatic]

Yeah I know IE is needed for updates, I didnt uninstall it, not that I could.
I just took it off the desktop and quick launch and program files under the start menu.

 

[RealBlackStuff]

Boot in Safe Mode.
Switch System restore OFF.
Press Ctrl/Alt/Del simultaneously, select Taskmanager/Processes, select the process (if there), click "End Process" for:
ggcqtiq.exe
svcproc.exe (if there)

Next, click Start/Run and type services.msc and click OK. Look for the service:
svcproc.exe
When found, Stop it if it is running, doubleclick on it and change the Startup type to Disabled.

Next, copy and paste the following text from the quote box and save it on your PC as svcproc.reg

Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

[-HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\ControlSet001\Services\SvcProc]

[-HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\ControlSet002\Services\SvcProc]

[-HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\ControlSet003\Services\SvcProc]

[-HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\ControlSet004\Services\SvcProc]

PS: there is NO space in 'S vcProc', its SvcProc, this is a forum-quirk!

Next, double-click on the saved svcproc.reg to clean up your registry.

You say you have the nail.exe program (but I don't see it...)
Anyway, click Start/Run and type cmd and hit Enter. When a command prompt opens, type:
nail.exe /FullRemove and hit Enter.

You now MUST reboot in Safe Mode again!
Next, run a HJT scan and place a tick-mark in the little square before (if still there):
R1 - HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Internet Settings,ProxyOverride = 127.0.0.1
O2 - BHO: ohb - {999A06FF-10EF-4A29-8640-69E99882C26B} - C:\WINDOWS\System32\nsd1304.dll (file missing)

O23 - Service: System Startup Service (SvcProc) - Unknown owner - C:\WINDOWS\svcproc.exe

Now click on the Fix Checked button in HJT.
When done, delete the two highlighted bold .exe files.
Delete all files and directories from: C:\Documents and Settings\[username]\Local Settings\Temp
Repeat this for ALL [usernames].
Boot normal. When all OK, switch System Restore back on.

No, I dont have it. I just read that it was part of aurora but I didnt find it on the system.

Thanks Ill try this when I get home.

I also have popups from Aurora. I ran Ad-aware and Spy bot search and destrow with no luck. Below is my HJT log. What should I do?

I didn't have any luck. I am still getting popups. When following the steps that you posted, the following occured:
None of those programs showed up in the taskmanager.
I did not find svcproc.exe in the services.
When I do the full removal in dos should I get any type of confirmation that it has been removed? It seems like nothing happened.
In the HJT list, the following items were not listed:

O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [conscorr] C:\WINDOWS\conscorr.exe
O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [wfhjxr] c:\windows\system32\lswhee.exe
O23 - Service: System Startup Service (SvcProc) - Unknown owner - C:\WINDOWS\svcproc.exe

When I went to delete the files, conscorr.exe lswhee.exe and the Ebates folder were not present. There was a text file named conscorr but I did not delete it.
Here is my new HJT scan.

Thanks for all of you time and help! I can't believe how hard this thing is to remove.

 

[RealBlackStuff]

Do the same corrections as in my previous post, except:
conscorr.exe has disappeared and
lswhee.exe is now tdcytap.exe
This last file will have a DIFFERENT name EVERY time you start your PC, it will appear in the same place, so you should be able to follow it.

c:\windows\system32\tdcytap.exe
F2 - REG:system.ini: Shell=Explorer.exe C:\WINDOWS\Nail.exe

O23 - Service: SNMP Trap Service (SNMPTRAP) - Unknown owner - C:\WINDOWS\system32\snmptrap.exe (file missing)

If that does not work, get the 30-day trial version of Trojan Remover here: http://www.simplysup.com/tremover/download.html

Thanks I downloaded a free trial of ewdio and it removed it!!! Thanks for all of your help.
