Persistent virus, Ramnit A and C, I need help!!!

Hi,

I have a Ramnit Virus. Within a few second from a system load
my security NOD32 finds infected files. I can not run Mozilla, IE etc

I have Windows XP SP2

Please help!
_______________
If your computer is infected with this threat, please read the following:

Attention: Your computer is severely infected with Win32\Ramnit
what is now called, a cocktail infection. This is an infection that is
comprised of many different types of viruses and other malware, to
damage your computer, and use it as a zombie for its backdoor network.
In other words, your computer is under control of a hacker, and
regaining control is now next to impossible.

The first component is a backdoor trojan, which is a type of trojan that communicates with a hacker:
to transfer personal information about you, use your computer to help
perform a denial-of-service attack, redirect your internet searches in
order to make money off of your browsing habits, and can be a keylogger
to steal personal identifiable information to help rob your identity.

The second component is a rootkit, which is a type of malware to take control over your computer at administrator access,
having full permission to modify all of your device drivers, and
allowing itself to hide all the malware on the system. In other words,
it is a hackers way of taking control of your computer, and hiding in
the dark at the same time. This is a prime initiative of hackers to help
keep access to your computer, robbing all of your personal information,
and using your computer to send spam across the internet.

The third component is a file infector, which is a type of virus to purposely damage as many files as possible, in order to keep control of your system, so you have as little access as possible.

Not
only has your system been compromised severely, it is also highly
damaged, and if you do not commit to my suggested removal method below,
then your computer may not function anymore.

If you do any banking or other financial transactions on the PC or if it should contain any other sensitive information, please get to a known clean computer and change all passwords where applicable. Do NOT
change passwords or do any transactions while using the infected
computer because the attacker may get the new passwords and transaction
information. (If using a router, you need to reset it with a strong
logon/password so the malware cannot gain control before connecting
again.) Banking and credit card institutions should be notified to
apprise them of your situation (possible security breach). To protect
your information that may have been compromised, I recommend reading
these references:

• How Do I Handle Possible Identify Theft, Internet Fraud and CC Fraud?
  
• What Should I Do If I've Become A Victim Of Identity Theft?
  
• Identity Theft Victims Guide - What to do
  

Removal method:

It is recommended to do a reformat and reinstall of your operating system. The experts in the Advanced Malware Analysts
security community believe that once infected with such a piece of
malware, the best course of action would be a reformat and clean
reinstall of the OS. This is something I don't like to recommend
normally, but in most cases it is the best solution for your safety.

I recommend the following articles to read:

• When should I re-format? How should I reinstall?
  
• Help: I Got Hacked. Now What Do I Do?
  
• Help: I Got Hacked. Now What Do I Do? Part II
  
• Where to draw the line? When to recommend a format and reinstall?
  

Guides for format and reinstall:

http://www.GeekPolice.net/tutorials-guides-f13/how-to-reformat-and-reinstall-your-operating-system-t15119.htm

http://www.helpmyos.com/tutorials-software-alternatives-to-proprietary-f19/how-to-reformat-and-reinstall-your-operating-system-the-easy-way-t1307.htm

However,
if you do not have the resources to reinstall your computer's OS and
would like me to attempt to clean it, I will be happy to do so. But
please consider carefully before deciding against a reformat.
If
you do make that decision, I will do my best to help you clean the
computer of any infections, but you must understand that once a machine
has been taken over by this type of malware, I cannot guarantee that it will be 100% secure even after disinfection or that the removal will be successful.

Please let me know what you have decided to do in your next post. Should you have any questions, please feel free to ask.
__________________________
I have decided against a reformat, for many reasons. Please help me to
clean my computer of this virus as much as possible, I would really
appreciate it! Thank you.

  Here is my kaspersky log...
  I
  am trying to run the ESET online scanner but the link will not open in
  my Internet Explorer, and I cannot open Firefox or Safari anymore
  either! I have a laptop which runs fine...is there a way for me to
  download this software so I can then transfer it to my desktop computer?

  As you can probably see, most of your personal files are corrupted. Don't be alarmed, as this is expected.
  
  Also,
  in the Kaspersky log there, the Kaspersky AVP Tool that was used had
  gotten infected within minutes of starting its scan. We need to work a
  bit more efficient.
  
  The tools can be transferred, but keep in
  mind, if you use a flash drive, the flash drive will be instantly
  infected once connected to the system.
  
  Let's see...
  
  Please visit this webpage for a tutorial on downloading and running ComboFix:
  
  http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/combofix/how-to-use-combofix
  
  See the area: Using ComboFix, and when done, post the log back here.Ok
  I used my flash drive to dowload the tool onto my PC and used it
  following the instructions, so here is my log. What can I do now? Your
  help is so precious thank you.
  AttachmentsComboFix_log.txt (9 Kb) Downloaded 6 times
  Re-running ComboFix to remove infections:
  
• Close any open browsers.
  
• Close/disable all anti virus and anti malware programs so they do not interfere with the running of ComboFix.
  
• Open notepad and copy/paste the text in the codebox below into it:
  <blockquote>killall::
  Registry::
  [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\software\microsoft\windows nt\currentversion\winlogon]
  "Userinit"="c:\windows\system32\userinit.exe,"
  
  File::
  c:\program files\microsoft\desktoplayer.exe
  
  SysRst::
  
  Reboot::
  </blockquote>
  
• Save this as CFScript.txt, in the same location as ComboFix.exe
  
  
  
• Referring to the picture above, drag CFScript into ComboFix.exe
  
• When finished, it shall produce a log for you at C:\ComboFix.txt
  
• Please post the contents of the log in your next reply.

AttachmentsComboFix.txt (9 Kb) Downloaded 4 times
I tried 3 times to run the Kaspersky online scanner, and each time it tells me:

Launch of the Java application is interrupted! Please establish an uninterrupted Internet connection for work with this program.

What does this mean?Yeah. See if the ESET scan will work.

ComboFix is running in a reduced functionality, and will not give me enough info. This is because of the infection.

First topic message reminder :

Hi,

I have
a Ramnit Virus. Within a few second from a system load my security
NOD32 finds infected files. I can not run Mozilla, IE etc

I have Windows XP SP2

Please help!Ok, it has cleaned 44 out of 48 infected files (so 4 are still left uncleaned). Here is my log.1. Please download The Avenger by Swandog46 to your Desktop.

• Right click on the Avenger.zip folder and select "Extract All..."
  
• Follow the prompts and extract the avenger folder to your desktop
  

2. Copy all the text contained in the code box below to your Clipboard by highlighting it and pressing (Ctrl+C):

<blockquote>Files to delete:
C:\Program Files\QuickTime\QTSystem\QTCF.dll
C:\Program Files\iTunes\iTunesHelperSrv.exe
</blockquote>

Note:
the above code was created specifically for this user. If you are not
this user, do NOT follow these directions as they could damage the
workings of your system.

3. Now, open the avenger folder and start The Avenger program by clicking on its icon.

• Right click on the window under Input script here:, and select Paste.
  
• You can also click on this window and press (Ctrl+V) to paste the contents of the clipboard.
  
• Click on Execute
  
• Answer "Yes" twice when prompted.
  

4. The Avenger will automatically do the following:

• It will Restart your computer. ( In cases where the code to execute contains "Drivers to Delete", The Avenger will actually restart your system twice.)
  
• On reboot, it will briefly open a black command window on your desktop, this is normal.
  
• After the restart, it creates a log file that should open with the results of Avenger’s actions. This log file will be located at C:\avenger.txt
  
• The Avenger will also have backed up all the files, etc., that you asked it to delete, and will have zipped them and moved the zip archives to C:\avenger\backup.zip.

This
is my log for the Avenger task, and attached is my updated log for the
ESET scan. 34 files were found and one could not be cleaned (bottom). Is
this normal? Am I doing something wrong here? I have uninstalled my
antivirus (because it keeps interfering and obviously wasn't very
effective in the first place)and I usually disactivate my Firewall when
running a scan...should I always keep it on? Should I permanently
install an antivirus/antimalware right away or just follow your
step-by-step instructions first? Thank you!I will give you some tips on the antivirus later, if you like.

There could still be tons more infected files. So, we must keep on going till there are no more detections.

Please download Norman Malware Cleaner and save to your desktop.
alternate download link

• Double-click on Norman_Malware_Cleaner.exe to start the program.
  
• Read the End User License Agreement and click the Accept button to open the scanning window.

  computer to completely remove an infection. If prompted, reboot and run
  the tool again to ensure that all infections are removed.
  
• After
  the scan has finished, a log file with the date (i.e.
  NFix_2009-06-22_07-08-56.log) will be created on your desktop with the
  results. Please post the results, when complete.
  

Note: For usb flash drives and/or other removable drives to scan, use the Add button to browse to the drives location, click on the drive to highlight and choose Ok..the
L: is my external hard drive, which I thought might not be infected
because I hadn't plugged it in my computer for a long time, but I
scanned it just in case.. Now, ESET online scan once more, please.So I ran the scan again, and 62 out of 63 files were «cleaned»...I want to try something real quick...

2010/10/23 15:56:03.0687 ================================================================================Run MBRCheck.exe again by double-clicking on it.

• Wait until you see the following line: Enter 'Y' and hit ENTER for more options, or 'N' to exit:
  
• Enter 'Y' and then press Enter.
  
• When asked: 'Enter your choice:', select option 2 (Restore the MBR of a physical disk with a standard boot code) and press the Enter key.
  
• Now the program will ask: 'Enter the physical disk number to fix (0-99, -1 to cancel)'
  
• Enter 5 and press the Enter key.
  
• The program will show Available MBR codes followed by a list of operating systems as shown below:
  <blockquote>Available MBR codes:
  [ 0] Default (Windows XP)
  [ 1] Windows XP
  [ 2] Windows Server 2003
  [ 3] Windows Vista
  [ 4] Windows 2008
  [ 5] Windows 7
  [-1] Cancel
  Please select the MBR code to write to this drive:
  
  </blockquote>
  

• Please select your version of Windows from the list and enter the corresponding number and then press Enter.
  
• When prompted for confirmation: "Do you want to fix the MBR code?". Type the full word Yes (not Y or the fix will not work) and press Enter.
  
• Left-click on the title bar (where program name and path is written).
  
• From the menu chose Edit -> Select All.
  
• Press the Enter key to copy selected text.
  
• Open Notepad, paste that text into it and save to your desktop as MBRCheck.txt.
  
• When complete, you should see Done! Press ENTER to exit.... Press Enter on the keyboard.
  
• Reboot your computer to complete the fix and copy/paste MBRCheck.txt in your next reply.
  
• If your computer does not restart on its own, please restart it manually.
  

Important Note:
The Master Boot Record contains the Partition Table for the hard disk
and a a little executable code for the boot start. While fixing the Master Boot Record (MBR)
is generally safe, there is a small risk of damaging the MBR, which may
cause the computer to not boot up or it may corrupt a partition.

The following are signs of a damaged MBR:

• Invalid Partition Table
  
• Missing Operating System
  
• Error loading operating system
  

If it is the worst case scenario, and your computer cannot boot, please take note of the following:

Please
have your Windows CD available, which will allow recovering the boot
code via the Windows Recovery Console in case of any problems or install
the XP Recovery Console before proceeding with the above fix. Then, if any problems occur, the links below explain how to use and repair the MBR:

• How to use the Recovery Console
  
• How to fix MBR in Windows XP and Vista
  

If you do not have a Windows CD available, please let me know. You will need access to a computer that can burn CDs.I do not have a Windows CD available, but I have a 2 yr-old Ghost and also have access to a computer that can burn CDs.Not a problem. We have proven recovery methods, and since you have XP, we can say there is a good possibility for recovery.

I'll take over here since Jay is away.

Attention: Your computer is severely infected with Win32\Ramnit
what is now called, a cocktail infection. This is an infection that is
comprised of many different types of viruses and other malware, to
damage your computer, and use it as a zombie for its backdoor network.
In other words, your computer is under control of a hacker, and
regaining control is now next to impossible.

The first component is a backdoor trojan, which is a type of trojan that communicates with a hacker:
to transfer personal information about you, use your computer to help
perform a denial-of-service attack, redirect your internet searches in
order to make money off of your browsing habits, and can be a keylogger
to steal personal identifiable information to help rob your identity.

The second component is a rootkit, which is a type of malware to take control over your computer at administrator access,
having full permission to modify all of your device drivers, and
allowing itself to hide all the malware on the system. In other words,
it is a hackers way of taking control of your computer, and hiding in
the dark at the same time. This is a prime initiative of hackers to
help keep access to your computer, robbing all of your personal
information, and using your computer to send spam across the internet.

The third component is a file infector, which is a type of virus to purposely damage as many files as possible, in order to keep control of your system, so you have as little access as possible.

Not
only has your system been compromised severely, it is also highly
damaged, and if you do not commit to my suggested removal method below,
then your computer may not function anymore.

If you
do any banking or other financial transactions on the PC or if it
should contain any other sensitive information, please get to a known clean computer and change all passwords where applicable. Do NOT
change passwords or do any transactions while using the infected
computer because the attacker may get the new passwords and transaction
information. (If using a router, you need to reset it with a
strong logon/password so the malware cannot gain control before
connecting again.) Banking and credit card institutions should be
notified to apprise them of your situation (possible security breach).
To protect your information that may have been compromised, I recommend
reading these references:

• How Do I Handle Possible Identify Theft, Internet Fraud and CC Fraud?
  
• What Should I Do If I've Become A Victim Of Identity Theft?
  
• Identity Theft Victims Guide - What to do
  

Removal method:

It is recommended to do a reformat and reinstall of your operating system. The experts in the Advanced Malware Analysts
security community believe that once infected with such a piece of
malware, the best course of action would be a reformat and clean
reinstall of the OS. This is something I don't like to recommend
normally, but in most cases it is the best solution for your safety.

I recommend the following articles to read:

• When should I re-format? How should I reinstall?
  
• Help: I Got Hacked. Now What Do I Do?
  
• Help: I Got Hacked. Now What Do I Do? Part II
  
• Where to draw the line? When to recommend a format and reinstall?

How to reformat and reinstall your Operating System

How to reformat and reinstall your Operating System - the easy way

However,
if you do not have the resources to reinstall your computer's OS and
would like me to attempt to clean it, I will be happy to do so. But
please consider carefully before deciding against a reformat.
If
you do make that decision, I will do my best to help you clean the
computer of any infections, but you must understand that once a machine
has been taken over by this type of malware, I cannot guarantee that it will be 100% secure even after disinfection or that the removal will be successful.

Please let me know what you have decided to do in your next post. Should you have any questions, please feel free to ask.Thank
you, but as I said before, I have decided against a reformat, for many
reasons. Please help me to clean my computer of this virus as much as
possible, I would really appreciate it! I would also appreciate if you
looked at all the information I have sent from the beginning because
this process has been underway for 2 weeks now and we might be getting
somewhere... hopefully. So let me know what I can do now. Thank you!Please
let me know asap if you cannot help, so that I can look for help
elsewhere... Now, should I remove all the programs I've downloaded onto
my desktop while following your instructions, and can you please give me
some tips on antivirus/antimalware to prevent this type of problem from
happening again, once I've managed to fix it? Thank you!Hello. I am back from vacation and will continue from here.

• After reboot, post the contents of the log from Dr.Web in your next reply. (You can use Notepad to open the DrWeb.cvs report)
  

Many
objects were uncurable, so I "selected all" and when all the logos had a
green dot on them, I selected "move" but still it seems they have not
been moved. I tried this twice. When I attempted to exit, a message
showed up saying "The list of detected threats contains objects to which
no actions were applied. It is strongly recommended to neutralize them
b4 closing the application." So I will stop here and wait for your
answer to proceed.Avira Antivirus Rescue System

More info about SP3: http://www.GeekPolice.net/operating-systems-f20/windows-xp-service-pack-3-information-t16956.htm

Update Firefox

Firefox is out of date. Firefox is a very popular web browser, and if it is out of date, it is very vulnerable to security bugs, and other holes. To update it now, click Help > Check for Updates.


Update Adobe Reader

Please download the newest version of Adobe Acrobat Reader from Adobe.com

Before installing: it
is important to remove older versions of Acrobat Reader since it does
not do so automatically and old versions still leave you vulnerable.
Go to the Control Panel and enter Add or Remove Programs (Programs and Features in Vista/7).
Search in the list for all previous installed versions of Adobe Acrobat Reader. Uninstall/Remove each of them.

Once old versions are gone, please install the newest version.



Update Java

Please download the newest version of Java from Java.com.

Before installing: it
is important to remove older versions of Java since it does not do so
automatically and old versions still leave you vulnerable.
Go to the Control Panel and enter Add or Remove Programs (Programs and Features in Vista/7).
Search
in the list for all previous installed versions of Java. (J2SE Runtime
Environment). Please uninstall/remove each of them.

Once old versions are gone, please install the newest version.


Please
read the following information that I have provided, which will help
you prevent malicious software in the future. Please keep in mind,
malware is a continuous danger on the Internet. It is highly important to stay safe while browsing, to prevent re-infection.

Software recommendations

Antivirus/Antispyware

• Microsoft Security Essentials:
  this is Microsoft's free antivirus/antispyware program. It equips you
  with protection against viruses, spyware, trojans, rootkits, and worms.
  It is also light on the computer's performance. Note: when installing
  this, you have both an antivirus and antispyware. Make sure you also get
  a firewall.
  
• Avira Free:
  this is one of the most powerful, and easiest to use security software.
  The free version equips you with protection against viruses, spyware,
  trojans, rootkits, worms, and rogue software.
  

Firewall

• Tallemu Online Armor: the free version is just as good as the premium. I have linked you to the free version.
  
• Comodo Firewall:
  the free version is just as good as the premium. I have linked you to
  the free version. The optional security suite enhances the firewall by
  40% increase. If you would like to install the suite that includes
  antivirus, then remove your old antivirus first.
  
• PC Tools Firewall Plus: free and excellent firewall.
  

Note: Please keep ALL of these programs up-to-date and run them whenever you suspect a problem to prevent malware problems.

Resident Protection help
A
number of programs have resident protection and it is a good idea to
run the resident protection of one of each type of program to maintain
protection. However, it is important to run only one resident program of each type since they can conflict and become less effective. That means only one
antivirus, firewall, and scanning anti-spyware program at a time.
Passive protectors such as SpywareBlaster can be run with any of them.

Securing your computer

• Windows Updates - It is very important to make sure that both Internet Explorer and Windows are kept current with the latest critical security patches from Microsoft. To do this just start Internet Explorer and select Tools > Windows Update, and follow the online instructions from there.
  
• hpHosts file
  replaces your current HOSTS file with one containing well known ad
  sites and other bad sites. This prevents your computer from connecting
  to those sites by redirecting them to 127.0.0.1, which is your local
  computer's loopback address, meaning it will be difficult to infect your
  computer in the future.
  

Please consider using an alternate browser
Mozilla's
Firefox browser is a very good alternative. In addition to being
generally more secure than Internet Explorer, it has a very good
built-in popup blocker and add-ons, like NoScript, can make it even more
secure. Opera is another good option.

If you are interested:

• Firefox may be downloaded from here: http://www.getfirefox.com
  
• Opera is available here: http://www.opera.com/download/
