antispynet owns me

47 min read

This thread's last reply is from December 24, 2006, 9:13 AM UTC. Software, malware, and removal-tool advice below may be out of date — treat specific steps and download links with caution.

I have been battling antispynet trojan or whatever it is for months now. Something has remained each time to allow it to re-install and continue to mock me. At first I stayed clean for a months, then just a week, now I can not clean it at all. Over the course of several attacks in several months, I've tried every course of action posted in these forums, some of which yielded day or week-long fixes, but none permanent. The last cocktail I tried was smitrem + ad-aware + AVG / ewido + a host of other helpers, all in different combos, safe mode, disabled system restore, scan and manually clean registry in safe mode, etc etc. As soon as I restart the pop-up is back and my HJT log shows more and more BHO hijacks each time, within seconds of rebooting. This time I my network cable was unplugged and it still re-installed everything upon bootup. If you've been looking for a challenge, I'm it. I'm just going to forego the rest of the usual ass-kissing, 'I need your brilliant minds, oh wise and powerful genies of the cyberkingdom, bla bla bla' but don't think I don't appreciate you.

Here's my HJT log:

OK, I downloaded a more recent smitfraudfix and completed all the recommended steps. Please note:
1) I may have overlooked the file at C:\Windows\system32\asgp32.dll because it's still present in the new HJT log, and present at that location. I swear it wan't there when I was exploring in safe mode, but maybe I just missed it. the svchost.exe file was not present in C:\WINDOWS either, nor is it now.
2) As with the last time I ran AVG/ewido, no report is made available. I doublechecked the congif and it IS set as you advised. I do not have that report for you. My version was downloaded only days ago, but perhaps I should uninstall and re-download, re-install that program.

I suspect I should correct these two issues and repeat the process, but I thought I'd share my current state and logs with you after this first attempt. The fraudulent pop-ups have returned already.

Here the two logs I have available:

Hi hiofisr,

Navigator is away for a while but will be back by the weekend. I promised him that I would look out for any posts, I will have a look through the log tomorrow (UK) and will get back to you later should I spot anything.

GT :thumbup:
Thanks for the update. I'll continue to monitor the forum for additional posts.
Hi,

I have been reading around and I believe that the problem could be to do with the file situated at the following address C:\WINDOWS\system32\asgp32.dll. Further research indicates that this often comes associated with many other malware so what I would like you to do is to try the following two programs

  1. Please start with an online scan using TrendMicro here. You can use either IE or Firefox. When the scan has finished click the Report tab and make a note of any red entries that are showing before scrolling to the bottom and selecting the delete option.
  2. Download combofix.exe from here
    • Double click combofix.exe & follow the prompts.
    • When finished and after a reboot, it will open a log, combofix.txt.
    Note: Do not click on combofix's window whilst it's running as it may cause the program to stall.
  3. Finally, I would like you to produce a list of installed programs to assist me in the diagnosis. To do this open your HijackThis
    1. Click on Open the Misc Tools section or Config… button, depending on how you are set up.
    2. If you used the Config... option then click the Misc Tools tab
    3. Select Open Uninstall Manager , a list of your installed programs will be displayed.
    4. Select the Save List… button and save the file to your desktop.
  4. Please post
    • A copy of this list in your reply
    • The combofix.txt log
    • Information on the TrendMicro scan
    • Please rename HijckThis.exe to HJT.exe, reboot and then post an updated HijackThis log

GT :thumbup:
The Trend Micro online scan yileded the following findings in red:
FREELOADER_TREKEIGHT
ADWARE_BHO_FREECOMMUNITY
DIALER_GENERICDIALER
ADWARE+BHOT_IEHELPER
ADWARE_BHO_DRUSEARCH
TSPY_DELF.VN

After clicking 'clean', the following could not be removed:
TSPY_PUPER
Along with a list of vulnerabilities that had not been patched.

Good morning Hiofisr,

That appears to have got rid of that asgp32.dll file! I will be a little while checking the logs but thought that a couple of housekeeping points would not go amiss in the interim.

  1. First I note that you are running HijackThis from the desktop, this is not a good idea as HJT makes backups of any changes made which permit us to return the computer to an earlier state in case either one of us makes an error in deletion. The Backup file is stored in the same directory as HJT. To prevent accidental deletion of this backup file can you please move HijackThis (HJT) to a permanent directory, perhaps C:\HijackThis or whatever takes your fancy.
  2. Once you have moved the directory then lets tackle those BHO (O2) entries once more. Start your HijackThis and click on Scan
    1. Click in the check-box to the left of each of the following entries, if found

    2. With all windows closed except HijackThis, select Fix Checked

I hope to be back with the results of the logs later but please reboot and then post a new HijackThis log from its new location :) I will be delighted if at least some of those BHO entries are gone!

GT :thumbup:
By golly I think we're getting somewhere! I have to admit I was growing doubtful, but you should see the smile on my face now!!

Moved hijackthis to C:\Program Files\HJT
The new log looks shockingly clean. No bogus pop ups as of yet.

Let me know what else I can do to fully remove all traces. Thank you for getting me this far!!
I guess that your smile is going to be a bit bigger than mine but not by much :D

Hopefully back to you again later this evening with a progress report

GT :thumbup:
Back again,

I am still working on the earlier logs and have found nothing to concern me yet but I am pleased to say that the HijackThis log appears to be clean! You do have a few programs that are running unnecessarily thereby taking up resources and one that is rather restrictive in use. I have recommended that they be stopped from within HJT, this does not mean that they are deleted, just stopped.

The DirectCD writer is not recommended for use because CD’s created by it are normally only able to be read by a similar CDROM, not much use if you are backing up your data. I note that you have EasyCD available and Nero, both of these are very good as is the Windows own version.

The first two entries are a link from Microsoft advising you that your homepage has been hijacked, please, after clearing these entries then reset your homepage as required.

Start your HijackThis and click on Scan
  1. Click in the check-box to the left of each of the following entries, if found

  2. With all windows closed except HijackThis, select Fix Checked

I am expecting Navigator back within the next couple of days so will leave him to carry on unless I find something urgent in the ComboFix logs.

GT :thumbup:
I've noticed that my Windows firewall is disabled and cannot be started. Is this related?
Related to attacks by Malware - Yes.

If that is the only Firewall that you have then, as a matter of urgency, obtain a better one as soon as practical. I can not stress enough how important it is that you use a Firewall on your computer. Without a firewall your computer is susceptible to being hacked and taken over. Simply using a Firewall in its default configuration can lower your risk greatly. For an article on Firewalls and a listing of some available ones see the link below. Computer Safety On line - Software Firewalls http://www.malwareremoval.com/forum/viewtopic.php?p=56#56 A tutorial on Understanding and Using Firewalls can be found http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/tutorials/tutorial60.html
