Hello,
My laptop was recently attacked by the Vundo Trojan. I followed the 8 steps removal procedure. I am attaching the 3 logs with this thread. Please help me resolve the issue. Thanks.

Did you follow the instructions in Mbam to reboot to delete the malware?

Do NOT use System Restore while the system is being cleaned> this entry> C:\SYSTEM VOLUME INFORMATION\_RESTORE indicates that the malware is in the restore points. We will drop the old restore point and create a new, clean on when the malware has been removed.

You have Symantec/Norton entries as well as McAfee. Decide which you want to keep and remove the other:
Norton Removal Tool is HERE

McAfee Removal Tool is HERE

I suspect you are not starting up, shutting down or surfing very fast. That is because you have to many processes starting on boot. (running processes, 04 entries, 023 services set to Automatic) That means they have to load, will run in the background, then each needs to shutdown. This is a waste of your resources as most can be started manually as needed. You are also using IE8 which is fat with bloat, using a lot of the system memory:

Examples: Media players (QuickTime Task, iTunes helper, ipod, Real Player updater, , Camera utilities, printer, PDF reader, Sonic, and on and on. you might want to look into that and the many Vaio processes Sony pre-loads. The ZoneAlarm Spyblocker is pre-checked on some update sites. I discourage using it because it is a BIG resource user.

I now understand what I missed. Thanks a lot for your reply. I will immediately follow the instructions and will post the new logs. Thanks once again.

Hello,
I have followed all the instructions given in your post. I did not uninstall IE8 or other BOG resource user, but I will slowly look into what to keep and what to remove. I also uninstalled the weather channel programs and zone alarm spyblocker. I could not find viewpoint manager to uninstall. I could only find Viewpoint player which I have not yet uninstalled. I am attaching all the 4 logs along with this comment. Please verify and let me know if my PC is safe. Thanks a lot for your precious time.

Run Combofix:
Please download ComboFix. HERE:

With ComboFix, at the download window, please rename it to Combo-Fix(.exe) before downloading it.

Please disable all security programs, such as antiviruses, antispywares, and firewalls.
Also disable your internet connection.

• Run Combo-Fix.exe and follow the prompts.
**Understand that things like your system clock changing and your desktop disappearing might happen. Do not worry, because all will be restored later.
• Wait for the scan to be completed.
• If it requires a reboot, please do it.
• After the scan has completed entirely, please post the log here. The log will be located at C:\ComboFix(.txt)

Do not click on the ComoboFix window, as it may cause it to stall.

CF disconnects your machine from the internet. The connection is automatically restored before CF completes its run. If CF runs into difficulty and terminates prematurely, the connection can be manually restored by restarting your machine.

Rescan with HijackThis when through. Attach Combofix report and new HJ log.
If they're clean, we will finish up.

RE:: Vundo attack..... Logs attached... Pls help!

Hello
When I started my PC in safe mode, I could not find PIFSvc.exe under Start> Run> msconfig> enter> Selective Startup> Startup menu to UNCHECK it.

I did not find pudomehi.dll under Right click on Start> Explore> Windows> System 32

Can I enable my system restore?

Please find the latest HijackThis.log and ComboFix.txt with this file. Thanks once again for all your help.

P2P software/programs are a major contributor to your infections.

We reserve the right to withdraw our support:
If such programs are found in your logs
Should you not agree to their removal.
As they are normally set to bypass your Firewall and Anti-Virus software
Filesharing/P2P Programs serves as a constant threat to your computer

Uninstall:
c:\program files\Azureus << you decide ;)

If you remove it, reboot and post new combofix log
 
RE:: Vundo attack..... Logs attached... Pls help!

Hello,
I had uninstalled Azureus even before I posted my last set of logs, but some how the windows uninstaller did not remove the Azureus folder and some files within it in the "C:\Program FIles" directory. That is what was listed in the ComboFix log that I attachet last time. It is all gone now. I am attaching the new ComboFix log with this post. Thanks once again for your wonderful help.

Open notepad and copy/paste the text in the quotebox below into it:

Killall:
Snapshot::
File::
c:\windows\system32\tebejuyi.dll.tmp
c:\windows\system32\valafuwe.dll.tmp
Folder::
c:\program files\Viewpoint
c:\documents and settings\All Users\Application Data\Viewpoint

Save this as:
CFScript

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

Then attach fresh combofix log.
