Removing one of the latest variants of lop.com

[Pieter_Arntz]

This post is by no means made because I want to avoid helping any of you to remove lop.com infections. Neither is it ment to promote or disqualify any anti-spywaresoftware.

Actually it is only a warning to steer away from lop.com and to give you an idea of what it changes on your computer.

First I disabled all resident spywareprotection and my firewall so I would not "cripple" the installation.

In the installer it makes very little difference whether you click Accept, Decline or the red cross in the upper right corner, so no escape there.

These are the items changed after the installation in my Hijackthis log:

O18 - Protocol: ayb - {07C0D34D-11D7-43F7-832B-C6BB41726F5F}

Explanation:
R0 and R1 entries are changes made in the registry to change your IE searchbar, searchpages, startpage, search bar page and search assistant.
A list of lop.com domains can be found in this thread:
http://www.wilderssecurity.com/showthread.php?t=7367
O2 entries are Browser Helper Objects, dll´s that are called upon once you open an IE Window.
A list of known BHO´s can be found on this site:
http://www.spywareinfo.com/bhos/
Sometimes toolbars are added as well, listed in HijackThis under O3. A list of known Toolbars can be found here:
http://www.spywareinfo.com/toolbars/.
Don´t be surprised if you can´t find them there. Lop.com creates random CSLID´s as well as random names for the dll´s and it´s main executable, which can be found under O4. That is the Startup entry. There you will find the only give-away that has been consistently present: the funny looking -QuieT (always capital Q and T)
The O17 entries are changes to the LSP (winsock2). The wrong way of removing these will cost you your connection to the www.
The O18 entry is a change in your protocol.

A short explanation and downloadlinks for HijackThis can be found here: http://www.tomcoyote.org/hjt/#quick

So far the best way to prevent getting infected by lop.com is by using SpywareBlaster, SpywareGuard and Adwatch (part of AdAware Plus + Pro) or Spybot S&D Resident.

To get rid of lop.com search the entries listed above (taking into account all possible variations) and have HijackThis fix them.
Then scan your computer for remnants with your favorite spywarecleaner.

I hope this helps someone.

Pieter

Adapted links
Once more adapted links and added info on toolbars

Pieter - Thank you. That's a great 'roadmap' of what to look for if lop were to somehow get past your defenses. Pete

Hi Pieter,

I have a question about the O18 change on the protocol: ayb, do you know what this does? And if Lop is starting to make changes to the protocol things are going to get worse fast. Or maybe I'm wrong.

Loki

[Pieter_Arntz]

Thnx Pete,

Getting it seems to be fairly easy, since they release new versions quite frequently.
Getting rid of it completely (without using Total Uninstall or System Restore) takes me over an hour, and I practice.

Regards,

Pieter

Loki

Hi Loki,

I don´t know why they chose to make that change or what is does, but I agree it´s very invasive. Maybe one of the real experts knows more about that.
That is not new to this variant however, they´ve been doing that before.

Regards,

Pieter

[Loki]

Thanks Pieter,

I hope someone knows what that change is doing and why. The protocol is how are computers talk to each other and to change something there seems Lop might what more then just to make spyware.

Loki

Back up your registry, before installing anything, then if something like Spyware is installed restore your registry using the back up.

[Primrose]

Thanks for the work and info Pieter..they sure keep it a moving target and that was a good write up.l

Loki

That creates a new protocol that Internet Explorer can interpret it as the beginning of an address. Lop's software uses it make IE load content using an ayb://whatever address. CommonName does this, Google does it, mIRC does it, and several other programs do this.

As comparison to the first log in this thread, a log made after installing the new version of Messenger Plus (which comes with lop bundled).

I din´t install this one myself, but found it on a reasonably well protected system, that had no other spyware on it.
So this may not be everything lop.com tries to change, but it gives you a good idea of how it has evolved over the last 3,5 months.

To our dismay other spywarecreators have followed their example, in randomizing elements, thus complicating the lives of the "good guys" that are trying to keep their prevention and removal software up-to-date.

This one has also been using:
O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [winactive] C:\PROGRAM FILES\WINDOW ACTIVE\WINACTIVE.EXE
to start up the main executable.

In all known variants the dll's can be found in the Application Data folder. For the older variants the .exe can be found in that folder as well.

Hope this helps someone,

Pieter

Added the winactive startup

[Pieter_Arntz]

A new version is being bundled with MessengerPlus.
These are the changes visible in my HijackThis log.
NOTE. I'm only posting the lop aka C2Media related entries. I also got Apropos and Autoupdater (PeopleOnPage) entries.

The folder- and filenames appear to come from a big but limited collection. The CLSID´s are random.

In the Program Files folder, three folders were added:
H:\Program Files\abouthide
Files: AMOK.exe = 32146 bytes
body grey.exe = 22528 bytes
For.exe = 135680 bytes
Platform Bait.exe = 214356 bytes
H:\Program Files\C2Media
File: Setup.exe = 7574 bytes
H:\Program Files\HtmGrim
Files: PHONE WIPE.dll = 196934 bytes
antepeak.dat = 6 kb

Recognition: in the folder where the executable is (listed under O4 in the HijackThis log), you will find one other executable represented by this icon:
(in my example the body grey.exe)
