Hi punkin!

Can you give us a bit more info such as what program/means did you use to determine that you were infected? (I am assuming here the clean/delet feature for the product wasn't sufficient to remove it)

What OS are you running?

Can you please download and run DCS's AutostartViewer from

http://www.diamondcs.com.au/downloads/asviewer.zip

Go to the "Main" menu and make sure that all three top options are selected and then press "Save" and then copy & paste the results here for us to review.

also if you are running NT/2K/XP,

Can you please download DCS's OpenPorts program from

http://www.diamondcs.com.au/downloads/openports.zip

Unzip openports.exe in your Windows directory, and open up your Command Prompt and type;

openports > openports.txt

and then press the Enter key

Then type;

openports.txt

and press the Enter key again, and then copy the contents of the file in Notepad and paste it here for us to review.

Thanks!

Dan

 

Hello Punkin!

Here is a link for Trend Micro's Virus Encyclopedia: http://www.trendmicro.com/vinfo/virusencyclo/default5.asp?VName=WORM_SPYBOT.A

It will give you some more info and instructions on what to do about it. Bookmark it for the next time you need to find what you have got.

(Note to Dan: I would have got here sooner but seems there are some network problems (mine) so I had to reboot. LOL.)

Best regards from Larry

 

Lol, Thanks Larry!

 

There is more than one spybot worm, and it could be this one:

http://www.trendmicro.com/vinfo/virusencyclo/default5.asp?VName=WORM_SPYBOT.GEN

thanks, any help welcome

Reiteration for clarification:

W32.Spybot.Worm removal instructions:
http://securityresponse.symantec.com/avcenter/venc/data/w32.spybot.worm.html#removalinstructions

W32.Blaster.Worm removal tool:
http://securityresponse.symantec.com/avcenter/venc/data/w32.blaster.worm.removal.tool.html

 

I also have the w32.spybot.worm in my iexplore.exe file. I have followed the Symantec instructions up to the point of starting the computer in safe mode, but then stopped because the next step is to delete the iexplore.exe file. If I do this, doesn't this disable my Internet Explorer? Please help. Thank you

 

In the steps online i don't see the iexplorer.exe mentioned to be deleted?
Or is it infected too?
Can you in the find/search locate another clean copy of that file?

 

Hi Jooske,
Thanks for the reply. When I said that the next step was to delete the iexplore.exe file, I guess I did not state that my Norton program told me that the infected file was the iexplore.exe file. Can I just find another file of this name from somewhere else and copy it to the same directory after deleting the infected one? Thanks

 

Thinking......... first of all try to locate if there are others on your system anyway.
what you can do, a way for not losing the file altogether if it doesn't work, in windows explorer, go to that infected file and rename it, for instance into iexplorer.exe.bak
so this disables it from functioning.
You have system restore still disabled?
Now first close all the av/at and other unnecessary stuff at this moment.
Then go to the control panel > software > add/remove, find the microsoft internet explorer (your version)
and click it one time; you should get a popup with an option for a repair install.
After that you'll have to reboot.
All security can be up again now.
Then try if the IE functions fine on internet which i hope it does.
If so, enable system restore and make now manually a new restore point!
If IE keeps running fine please delete the infected iexplorer.exe.bak file.
Fingers crossed!

If the file was a 0 bytes copy of the original you can safely delete it without all this extra trouble, btw!

 

i have that dang thang too! emmm heres my report?

Hi Kendall,

Did you have a look at the sites APlusWebMaster posted?

Also, I´m by no means an expert in these logs, but these look suspicious to me:

HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run\mIRC32
C:\WINDOWS\shostt.exe

HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\RunServices\mIRC32
C:\WINDOWS\shostt.exe

Wait for the real experts to jump in.

Regards,

Pieter

 

But you are: these are the same items as the "O4 - HKLM\..\Run" entries you'll find in a Hijack This log, and you're absolutely right to tag them as suspect.

The fact that this shostt.exe file has not one, but two startup entries (one in Run, and the other in RunServices) only reinforces the suspicion it's up to no good at all.

Kendall, would you please do the following:

Go to http://tomcoyote.org/hjt/ , and download 'Hijack This!'.
Unzip, doubleclick HijackThis.exe, and hit "Scan".

When the scan is finished, the "Scan" button will change into a "Save Log" button.
Press that, save the log somewhere, and please show us its contents.

Most of what it lists will be harmless or even required, so do NOT fix anything yet.
Someone here will be happy to help you analyze the results.

 

Is this the same problem http://www.dslreports.c

Reboot after doing so, preferably into safe mode and delete:
C:\windows\5-2-101-4.exe

Then download Spybot - Search & Destroy
After installing, first press Online, and search for, put a check mark at, and install all updates.
Next, close all IE windows, hit 'Check for Problems', and have SpyBot remove all it marks in red.

Or, download Ad-Aware at lavasoft.usa.com
After installing AAW, and before running the program, update by using the Globe icon.
Shut down and restart Ad-Aware.
Now press "Scan Now", "Select drives\folders to scan" and select the active partition (usually C: ), then 'next', and let Ad-Aware scan your drives.
It will find a number of "bad" files and registry keys. Click 'Next' again.
Rightclick in that pane and choose "select all" and click 'next'.
It will ask you whether you'd like to remove all checked items. Click OK.
Finally, close Ad-Aware, and reboot.

Regards,

Pieter

I purchased and ran McAfee. I scanned my system for viruses, it detected the same worm that you have in three separate files, and automatically cleaned them (a verification message displayed at the end of the process.)
