Hi. I am having problems with a trojan right now. Keeps coming up as Dialer.CID. I ran through all of your steps under "Trojan pakes, and other nasties, preliminary removal instructions".

I am posting all of the log files except for the AVG Spyware logfile. I forgot to save this one, but if it's needed i will run through all the steps again.
 
Hello and welcome to Techspot.

Download the pocket killbox programme from HERE. Extract it but don`t run it yet.

You might want to copy and paste these instructions into a notepad file. Then you can have the file open in safe mode, so you can follow the instructions easier.

Turn off system restore.(XP/ME only) See how here.> http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/forums/tutorial56.html

Boot into safe mode, under your normal user name(NOT THE ADMINISTRATOR ACCOUNT). See how here.> http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/forums/tutorial61.html

In Windows Explorer, turn on "Show all files and folders, including hidden and system". See how here.> http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/forums/tutorial62.html

Open your task manager, by holding down the ctrl and alt keys and pressing the delete key.

Click on the processes tab and end process for(if there).

SystemCheck.exe

Close task manager.

Run HJT with no other programmes open(except notepad). Click the scan button. Have HJT fix the following, by placing a tick in the little box next to(if there).

R0 - HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Toolbar,LinksFolderName =

O2 - BHO: (no name) - {849B9523-785F-4014-9CAF-079FB4A74C61} - (no file)

O2 - BHO: (no name) - {a43385f0-7113-496d-96d7-b9b550e3fcca} - (no file)

O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [SystemCheck] SystemCheck.exe

O16 - DPF: {F5D98C43-DB16-11CF-8ECA-0000C0FD59C7} (ActiveCGM Control) - http://tgs.gov.mb.ca/roadinfo/help/downLoadIE/Acgm.cab

O20 - Winlogon Notify: wingsa32 - C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM32\wingsa32.dll

Click on the fix checked button.

Close HJT.

Locate and delete the following bold files and/or directories(if there).

SystemCheck.exe Search your system for this file and delete all instances of it.

Run the killbox.exe file. When it loads type the full path to the file you would like to delete in the field and check the delete file on reboot button. press the Delete File button (looks like a red circle with a white X). It will prompt you to reboot, select no until you have finished inputting the files you want to delete, only then allow it to reboot and hopefully your files will now be deleted.

This is the filepath you need to enter into killbox.

C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM32\wingsa32.dll

Once your system has rebooted, turn system restore back on and rehide your protected OS files.

Post a fresh HJT log and let me know how your system is running.

Wait for Howard to reply, he'll be your saviour;)

EDIT: Too late, he already did! lol
 
Done!!

Hi Howard,

OK. I tried everything you said with killbox.exe and what not. Seems to have worked. So far the PC is doing ok. Here's the new HJT log attached.

Thanks again.

Hi Howard,

One more thing. I just finished running my AVG Anitvirus, and it came up with 10 Dialer.CID trojans, and then healed them all. Just wondering if that is going to cause anymore problems, or if they should be gone?
 
Make sure you have the latest definition files for AVG.

You might want to copy and paste these instructions into a notepad file. Then you can have the file open in safe mode, so you can follow the instructions easier.

Turn off system restore.(XP/ME only) See how here.> http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/forums/tutorial56.html

Boot into safe mode, under your normal user name(NOT THE ADMINISTRATOR ACCOUNT). See how here.> http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/forums/tutorial61.html

In Windows Explorer, turn on "Show all files and folders, including hidden and system". See how here.> http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/forums/tutorial62.html

Run a full system scan with AVG and delete whatever it finds, this includes anything in the virus vault.

Reboot into normal mode, turn system restore back on and rehide your protected OS files.

Run AVG again and see if it finds anything.

Let me know the results please.

Regards Howard :)

Fresh HJT

Hi Howard.

OK. When i went to remove this with HJT:

O20 - AppInit_DLLs: dxclib303562752.dll

It was no longer there. Also, when i went to use Killbox it was nowhere to be found in the C:\Windows\System32 folder. So, hopefully it is gone. However, my PC did reboot on it's own. Not sure if that has anything to do with it, but that's the second time it's rebooted itself in 3 days.

Also i've attached a fresh HJT log.

Thanks again.
 
That`s excellent, your HJT log is clean.

If you have any further virus/spyware problems, please post in this thread.

hi there, i would have thought that if it was a virus that was shutting down your pc, it would have done it a lot more frquently, nevertheless, it may me worth doing another virus scan scan to be on the safe side. by the way, are you running a firewall??? if not go here and get the free one,it better than windows firewall.
after saying this, howard will keep you right...
