696419 2008-08-11 05:30:00 Hi,

I have been plagued with continued, multiple threats of the above virus for some months, now. I have tried a number of attempted solutions to no avail.

I have used computers for over ten years with no history of virus infections until this last year.

Historically, there have been a small number of folders which are continually infected, ie. my default downloads folder in my boot drive partition & an area on a data partition where I usually store my programme & apps backups. As executables are always the only files compromised, I assume this virus can only infect that file type.

I recently spent some four days following this page www.wilderssecurity.com

The only issues I had appeared to be a couple of hack-related sites in my favourites folder from some years back. I had forgotten about them. I deleted & repeated the instructions as detailed until my system showed clear for three entire checks.

My system remained clear for some weeks, but now the issue is back & as I started to write this, I had to delete some number of files, including the virus programme executable files of Hijack This, DSS, & other files.

Whatever is causing this is somehow reinfecting my system. Because I am not literate when it comes to virus', what can cause this particular virus to infect a system? Where can it hide? And what can be done to prevent it?

I have done all the normally specified preventions, like setting defaults & disabling activeX files. Thanks.

696420 2008-08-11 05:34:00 Disable system restore, then rescan with your Antivirus software (Get Eset Smart Security or Nod 32, they are the best).

Post a HijackThis log so that Speedy can analyze it.

696421 2008-08-11 05:42:00 See if these 2 files remove it (www.grisoft.com)

And yup post a hjt log

696422 2008-08-11 05:43:00 Thanks for the fast reply. Will do as stated. Should I always have system restore disabled? Also, as I use the free AVG antivirus, should I uninstall it, or just somehow disable it before I install one of the ones you posted? Cheers.

PS. Thought I might get slow reaponse as I was interrupted in typing my thread title by the danged virus threats. Guess I shouldn't have worried.

696423 2008-08-11 05:44:00 The link I posted, I dont think u install them, theyre small.

Just put them in the same folder and run the exe file

System restore SHOULD be disabled for now just in case it comes back

Once its removed you can enable it

Once it is removed, MAKE SURE Windows is up to date. As this exploits a vulnerability

696424 2008-08-11 07:30:00 OK. Installed & scanned using the files Speedy supplied. There were a number of files the programme was unable to open. It did a scan during reboot. The only files that were not able to be opened, I think, were associated with Outlook Express.

Did a full system scan. Clear. Used Adaware & Spybot previously, so they are pretty much useless.

Here is the HijackThis log.

Question: where does the virus hide? In what files? Apps?

PS. Windows is up to date & has been for over a week, when I realised that Windows Update was turned off: duh!

I'm a little bit confused. Are you saying you want me to check & delete ALL the entries you have in your last post?

Can I believe you think that WinMX nad/or Peer guardian Lite is the cause of my Gaelicum.A problems? Thanks for your assistance.

I'm signing off for the night, so will check back tomorrow.

696427 2008-08-11 10:10:00 Thats right, tick ALL of those entries

Thats what comodo is for

Then tick fix checked

If you dont want to listen, I wont reply again

Use trojan remover and select all of the options under utilities, that will remove all of those winmx entries in the hosts file

696428 2008-08-11 10:26:00 WinMX being a file sharing program, P2P is acting like a magnet for any infections.

Most P2P programs allow a back door ( easiest way to explain it) to your PC.

Once you have cleaned out the options speedy has advised, and scanned with Trojan remover, download from my sig, Malwarebytes, Super Antispyware, and spyware Terminator - with system restored turned off, update them and run those in full scan mode (will take a while), delete/remove any infections they find. Get Ccleaner while you're at it and clean out the system / temp files. ( when installing dont install the tool bar)

You also need to reset your your host file.

Trojan remover can do this from memory its under utilities / Reset host file.

If a infection has changed it then it can reinfect again.

As spartion mention download nod32 or Smart Security (www.eset.com) - those are 30 day trials, and fully functional. Avast is also a good free antivirus.

If you get Nod32 please advice and either myself or someone else can tell you how to set it to scan deeper/better than default settings.

Edited: Please listen to Speedys suggestion on removing the ones selected - if you dont the system will more than likely reinfect and end up going nowhere.
