1344970 2013-06-07 10:54:00 Avast picked up a detection. Ran the ESET Nod32 online scanner, YIKES!!! 7 Infections.

Win32/Somoto.A
Win32/DownloadSponsor.A
Win32/OpenCandy
Win32/Somoto.A
Win32/Injector.AGWL trojan
Win32/OpenCandy
Win32/CNETInstaller.A

Googled the trojan, it appears to be a password stealing program!

Anyway, what to do to clean this? Obviously after its clean I'll be changing my passwords.
Speedy, I'll be posting a HijackThis log later tonight, or tomorrow morning.
Also, any idea how I got infected? I always virus scan downloads, run regular virus scans, have no torrent clients installed. And I've stuck to decent websites - no pr0n :p - where am I most likely to have picked these up from?

1344971 2013-06-07 11:03:00 Not sure where you got them, the only time a virus scanner has ever picked up a any nasty it's been a false positive. I have spent more time disabling the damn things to use what I want to use than actually use them for good :p The Error Guy (14052)

1344973 2013-06-07 11:24:00 Opencandy is part of some free programs. You have to do a custom install on some of them, so it wont install it

I would disable system restore. Is Java update 21 installed?? It's the latest version out AFAIK. Uninstall all previous versions.

Ah you downloaded something from Cnet didnt you?? DON'T get downloads from CNET, or DOWNLOAD.COM if they've got the word cnet in them. They're full of crap / malware.

They install their own crap into their downloads with their own installers, which include malware

If you want a program get it from the people who made it.

I would say thats what all the files belong to that Eset picked up (a download from cnet). Here's a site that mentions Cnet as a cesspool for malware (www.networkworld.com)
Speedy Gonzales (78)
1344974 2013-06-07 11:29:00 Yep, I've downloaded a few things from Cnet, I always make sure i do a custom install + make sure none of the 'install this as well' options are selected.
Will make sure not to in the future :)
Any idea about the password stealer? It appears to be the most serious.
Nick G (16709)
1344975 2013-06-07 11:32:00 The prob isnt doing a custom install. If you get files from Cnet. Everything there is infected with malware. Whether you do a custom install or not. Avoid this site and download.com!

Disable system restore scan the whole hdd, then use something like ccleaner to remove temp files etc
Speedy Gonzales (78)
1344976 2013-06-07 11:38:00 Ok, I'll do that.

Thanks.
(And no more cnet or download.com for me!)
Nick G (16709)
1344977 2013-06-07 11:39:00 lol good lad :p If you dont know what site the program is on, try filehippo. I would say this site is pretty safe Speedy Gonzales (78)
1344978 2013-06-07 11:52:00 Look on the other forum where you asked the same question -- the answers for how you got them are there - as well as the reasons and how to remove them ;)

Once again proves Avast is useless.

I'll have a look there.
