Hey,
Was infected with virusburst malware and countless other trojans last week downloading str codec for windows media player... Using various resources on the internet and a few programs (smitfraud, sdfix,ewido and of course the delightful adawareSE smile.gif ) i am pretty sure i have eliminated the infections... i was just wondering if you could possibley take a look at the adaware and hijackthis log files to make sure i havnt missed anything out..... If this is ok with your good selves i will post them at your request...
Thanks

Hi bigfish,

In order for the malware experts to assist you, please post scan-logs as set out in my post here: trojandownloader.Zlob, Malware that can be deleted but returns immediately

For the Ad-Aware log, Please make sure that you are using Ad-aware SE Build 106r1
Note: If your version is 6.0 and not the SE, you need to get the latest version from the above link. [If not SE, uninstall your old Ad-aware first, then install SE]
Then use the WebUpDate to get the latest Definition file SE1R124 19.09.2006
To do this Open Ad-aware - Click the WebUpDate button at the top right hand side of the Ad-aware screen (The world globe). Click "Connect"
Ad-aware will then download the latest Definition file for you.
To make sure it is updated , look at the main Ad-aware screen, and look under "Initialization Status". It should say the Latest Definition file.
then scan doing a "Full Scan", and then post your logfile here by using the Add-Reply Feature
Click to view attachment
By default, Logs are stored in: C:\Documents and Settings\USERNAME\Application Data\Lavasoft\Ad-aware\Logs\. (If you installed to a different path, please amend accordingly)
An easy way to get there is to click Start, click Run
And type in and press ENTER: %appdata% then click Lavasoft, then Ad-Aware and then Logs.
Scroll down to find the latest one that you have (by date & time)
and open it, right Click, select all, copy and then paste the contents of it here.
(Make sure that all of your Logfile has been posted, sometimes it will require two post's to get it all)

-Configuring Ad-Aware Full-Scan
1) Start Ad-Aware SE
2) Click on the link "Check for updates now" press the connect button and follow the prompts to ensure you are up to date.
3) Press the start button and in the Preparing System Scan window select the option "Perform full system scan", click on "Search for negligible risk entries" so that it shows a red cross i.e. is deselected and click on "Search for low-risk threats" so that is shows green tick i.e. is selected.
4) Click the next button to start the full scan, when the scan finishes click on the show logfile button. In the log window right mouse click and select "Select all..." then right mouse click again and select "Copy to clipboard" then paste in a reply to this thread.

Note my advice in the post listed at the top, concerning possible delays

Regards,

Spike
