Malware - AVSuite, Virtumonde, Smitfraud + Google Redirects

[shebagrl]

Four days ago, behind a locked wifi network on an XP machine, I was using Firefox normally, Googling away. Within 10 minutes, the fake AV popups started (AVSecuritySuite). I checked and was still firewalled, in addition to running Norton Corporate edition (virus definitions last updated 3 or 4 days prior). I immediately disconnected from the network and tried to close the programs, but was prevented from even opening msconfig. I rebooted normal and immediately opened msconfig (it seems there's a delay before the malware runs after a reboot.) I booted into safemode, ran a full AV scan, but nothing was found. I ran spybot and AVSuite, Virtumonde and smitfraud were found. I "removed" through spybot, followed Norton's instructions on how to remove lingering elements (disable sys restore, update virus definitions, run full av scan, deleted the added values to the registry.) I have yet to reenable the system restore because, after those steps, I got google redirects to ad sites. After a few more scans, some noodling around, and a dozen reboots in and out of safe mode, the redirects have stopped, as have the pop-ups. I'd like to get my system safe enough to reenable the system restore point. If you could help me, I would really appreciate it.

I followed your 6 removal instructions and the logs are attached.

Thanks in advance for your help!

Okay, I'll check these logs. In the meantime, please run the following:

Please download ComboFix from Here and save to your Desktop.

• 
  [1]. Do NOT rename Combofix unless instructed.
  [2].Close/disable all anti virus and anti malware programs so they do not interfere with the running of ComboFix.
  [3].Close any open browsers.
  [4]. Double click combofix.exe & follow the prompts to run.
• NOTE: Combofix will disconnect your machine from the Internet as soon as it starts. The connection is automatically restored before CF completes its run. If it does not, restart your computer to restore your connection.
  [5]. If Combofix asks you to install Recovery Console, please allow it.
  [6]. If Combofix asks you to update the program, always allow.
• Please do not attempt to re-connect your machine back to the Internet until Combofix has completely finished.
  [7]. A report will be generated after the scan. Please post the C:\ComboFix.txt in next reply.

Note: Do not mouseclick combofix's window while it's running. That may cause it to stall.
Note: Make sure you re-enable your security programs, when you're done with Combofix..
Re-enable your Antivirus software.


Run Eset NOD32 Online AntiVirus scan HEREhttp://www.eset.eu/online-scanner

1. Tick the box next to YES, I accept the Terms of Use.
2. Click Start
3. When asked, allow the Active X control to install
4. Disable your current Antivirus software. You can usually do this with its Notification Tray icon near the clock.
5. Click Start
6. Make sure that the option "Remove found threats" is Unchecked, and the option "Scan unwanted applications" is checked
7. Click Scan
8. Wait for the scan to finish
9. Re-enable your Antivirus software.
10. A logfile is created and located at C:\Program Files\EsetOnlineScanner\log.txt. Please include this on your post.

For the record, you didn't find Combofix in the steps! Please run Malwarebytes, which is included in Step 3: You would have found that it removes much of the malware:https://www.techspot.com/community/...lware-removal-preliminary-instructions.58138/

We don't remove the old restore points until the end of cleaning. Someday, Norton might catch on as to why they shouldn't be disabled at the beginning!

Please do not use any other cleaning programs or scans while I'm helping you, unless I direct you to. Do not use a Registry cleaner or make any changes in the Registry.

I'm sorry I had attached the wrong log file! I had run combofix prior to finding your instructions. Oops

I had run MBAM before, but mistook it's log file with that of the first combofix log when I first created this thread.

I have rerun MBAM and attached both the old and new logs. The combofix (fresh download) log and eset logs are attached, also. The results of the Eset scan show win32/bagle.gen.zip and a variant of win32/cimag.cw trojan were found.

Edit: Just a few mins ago, Norton auto-protect came up with a message that a risk was found (Backdoor.Tidserv!inf) but it could not be quarantined or removed. I've copied the information and pasted below:

Scan type: Auto-Protect Scan
Event: Security Risk Found!
Risk: Backdoor.Tidserv!inf
File: C:\System Volume Information\_restore{C4F251F9-D782-4487-9D6F-8D3C08306253}\RP2\A0001471.sys
Location: Unknown Storage
Computer: COLD_LAMPIN
User: COLD_LAMPIN\SYSTEM
Action taken: Clean failed : Quarantine failed : Access denied
Date found: Monday, July 12, 2010 4:51:28 PM

 

[Bobbye]

The Eset log shows 2 entries> both have already been handled. Qoobox is where Combofix puts the quarantined files, so that entry has been handled. The other is the entry Spybot has quarantined, so go into that program and delete those files.

Regarding the Norton auto-protect:
File: C:\System Volume Information\_ is where the system restore points are held. Not to worry- it's not active in the system and will be removed at the end of cleaning. At some point you must have had the TDSS server malware and it was removed.

The reason you see "Action taken: Clean failed : Quarantine failed : Access denied" is because this is a System Folder and Norton can't remove it. Maybe someone will write their program not to even try to remove it and alarm the user! The only danger it presents is if you did a System Restore and should happen to pick the date the malware got into the restore point.

Both of the Mbam logs are clean.
==================================
Custom CFScript

• 
  [1]. Close any open browsers.
  [2]. Close/disable all anti virus and anti malware programs so they do not interfere with the running of ComboFix.
  [3]. Open notepad and copy/paste the text in the code below into it:

File::
c:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\Spybot - Search & Destroy\Recovery\SmitfraudCgp.zip
c:\windows\Hmuvasoyuyebi.dat
c:\windows\Bdanitubalikoqa.bin

DDS::
uInternet Connection Wizard,ShellNext = iexplore
uInternet Settings,ProxyOverride = <local>

Folder::
c:\documents and settings\NetworkService\Local Settings\Application Data\ppggwhjei
c:\documents and settings\shebagrl\Local Settings\Application Data\qrxxbvjmy
c:\documents and settings\LocalService\UserData

Registry::
Driver::

Save this as CFScript.txt, in the same location as ComboFix.exe

Referring to the picture above, drag CFScript into ComboFix.exe

When finished, it will produce a log for you at C:\ComboFix.txt . Please paste in your next reply.
====================

Download the HijackThis Installer HERE and save to the desktop:

1. Double-click on HJTInstall.exe to run the program.
2. By default it will install to C:\Program Files\Trend Micro\HijackThis.
3. Accept the license agreement by clicking the "I Accept" button.
4. Click on the "Do a system scan and save a log file" button. It will scan and then ask you to save the log.
5. Click "Save log" to save the log file and then the log will open in notepad.
6. Click on "Edit > Select All" then click on "Edit > Copy" to copy the entire contents of the log.
7. Come back here to this thread and paste (Ctrl+V) the log in your next reply.

NOTE: Do NOT have HijackThis fix anything yet! Most of what it finds will be harmless or even required.

Please paste the new Combofix report and HijackThis log in your next reply.

OK, I did all of those steps (thanks for the java uninstall tip - I had no idea!)

Thanks so much for the help so far! I reran spybot to see if I could remove that one entry, but it came up clear -- seems that whatever was noted in that log is what is already removed/quarantined, too.

So far, everything seems to be running smoothly, but I would love to make sure everything is ok before I re-enable the system restore point.

I really appreciate your help -- I don't know what I would've done without this forum! (Well, I know what I would've done, but it wouldn't have been pretty lol)

 

[Bobbye]

Spybot has already "removed" the entry by putting it in Quarantine. You need to delete the contents of the quarantine folder. The logs look okay to me.

Removing all of the tools we used and the files and folders they created

• Uninstall ComboFix and all Backups of the files it deleted
• Click START> then RUN
• Now type Combofix /Uninstall in the runbox and click OK. Note the space between the X and the U, it needs to be there.
  
  

• Download OTCleanIt by OldTimer and save it to your Desktop.
• Double click OTCleanIt.exe.
• Click the CleanUp! button.
• If you are prompted to Reboot during the cleanup, select Yes.
• The tool will delete itself once it finishes.

Note: If you receive a warning from your firewall or other security programs regarding OTC attempting to contact the internet, please allow it to do so.

• You should now set a new Restore Point and remove the old restore points to prevent infection from any previous Restore Points.
• Go to Start > All Programs > Accessories > System Tools
• Click "System Restore".
• Choose "Create a Restore Point" on the first screen then click "Next".
• Give the Restore Point a name> click "Create".
  
• Go back and follow the path to > System Tools.
  [*]Choose Disc Cleanup
  [*]Click "OK" to select the partition or drive you want.
  [*]Click the "More Options" Tab.
  [*]Click "Clean Up" in the System Restore section to remove all previous Restore Points except the newly created one.

Empty the Recycle Bin
Keep up the good work- here are some tips for you:

Please follow these simple steps to keep your computer clean and secure:


Stay current on updates:

• Visit the Microsoft Download Sitefrequently. You should get All updates marked Critical and the current SP updates: Windows XP> SP2, SP3.
• Visit this Adobe Reader site often and make sure you have the most current update. Uninstall any earlier updates as they are vulnerabilities.
• Check this site often.Java Updates Stay current as most updates are for security. Uninstall any earlier versions in Add/Remove Programs.

Make Internet Explorer safer. Follow the suggestions HERE This Tutorial will help guide you through Configuring Security Settings, Managing Active X Controls and other safety features.

Do regular Maintenance

• Remove Temporary Internet Files regularly:
  [o]ATF Cleaner by Atribune
  OR
  [o]TFC
• Disable and Enable System Restore:
  [o]See System Restore Guide This will help you understand what this is, why you need to clean and set restore points and what information is in them.

Have layered Security:

• Antivirus Software(only one): Both of the following programs are free and known to be good:
  [o]Avira Free
  [o]Avast Home
• Firewall (only one): Use bi-directional firewall. Both of the following programs are free and known to be good:
  [o]Comodo
  [o] Zone Alarm
• Antispyware: I recommend all of the following:
  [o]Spywareblaster: SpywareBlaster protects against bad ActiveX. It places kill bits to stop bad Active X controls from being installed. Remember to update it regularly.
  [o]IE/Spyad This places over 4000 websites and domains in the IE Restricted list which will severely impair attempts to infect your system. It basically prevents any downloads (Cookies etc) from the sites listed, although you will still be able to connect to the sites.
  [o]MVPS Hosts files This replaces your current HOSTS file with one containing well know ad sites etc. Basically, this prevents your computer from connecting to those sites by redirecting them to 127.0.0.1 which is your local computer.
  [o]Google Toolbar Get the free google toolbar to help stop pop up windows.

Ler me know if you need more help.

 

[shebagrl]

THANK YOU SO MUCH! Your help has gone above and beyond exceeding my expectations -- I am so thankful for finding TechSpot and for your help. It's official...I love you, man. :grinthumb

I got all the last steps done and will definitely take your advice on the additional precautions to take. One question -- would you suggest the a/v programs and firewall in addition to the Norton I have and the Windows firewall? I just want to make sure before I get them.

Thanks again!

 

[Bobbye]

You're very welcome. Glad to help.

You should have only 1 antivirus program and 1 software firewall. If Norton has both of these, do no add another of either.

As far as firewalls go, the Windows firewall only listens at incoming ports. I think it's better to have the bi-directional firewall which listens at outgoing port also. There are 2 recommendations for these above. My better recommendation would be to remove Norton and it's bloat, add one of the free antivirus programs and one of the free bidirectional firewalls. Links in my post above. Since Norton is a paid program, you might want to wait until the end of the subscription to replace.
