can't get rid of url.urtbk.com/trojan.vundo.h !

7 min read

This thread's last reply is from November 16, 2009, 5:50 PM UTC. Software, malware, and removal-tool advice below may be out of date — treat specific steps and download links with caution.

My computer was recently graced by the presence of url.urtbk.com virus/trojan. At first it opens up endless blank popups, but was later on blocked by my Webroot Firewall. However, I'm have trouble accessing websites and my computer processes a lot slower. I've tried to remove it through my Webroot Spysweeper, and Malawarebytes, but neither seemed to work. Malawarebytes solved the problem temporarily but shortly after it -- trojan vundo.h, appears to have found its way back again. I'm running on XP Home Edition, and probably SP2 since I recently reformatted my computer. Please help !

Hi le_Claire and welcome to Malware Removal. :)

I'm Dakeyras and I am going to try to assist you with your problem. Please take note of the below:
  • I will start working on your Malware issues, this may or may not, solve other issues you have with your machine.
  • The fixes are specific to your problem and should only be used for this issue on this machine!.
  • The process is not instant. Please continue to review my answers until I tell you your machine is clear. Absence of symptoms does not mean that everything is clear.
  • If you don't know, stop and ask! Don't keep going on.
  • Please reply to this thread. Do not start a new topic.
  • Refrain from running self fixes as this will hinder the malware removal process.
  • It may prove beneficial if you print of the following instructions or save them to notepad as I post them.
  • Your security programs may give warnings for some of the tools I will ask you to use. Be assured, any links I give are safe.


Before we start:

Please be aware that removing Malware is a potentially hazardous undertaking. I will take care not to knowingly suggest courses of action that might damage your computer. However it is impossible for me to foresee all interactions that may happen between the software on your computer and those we'll use to clear you of infection, and I cannot guarantee the safety of your system. It is possible that we might encounter situations where the only recourse is to re-format and re-install your operating system, or to necessitate you taking your computer to a repair shop.

Because of this, I advise you to backup any personal files and folders before you start.

Next:

I would like to view a list of currently installed software applications on you're PC. How to provide as follows:

Run HJT and click on Open the Misc Tools section.

  • Click Open Uninstall Manager...
  • Click Save list... and save it to your Desktop.
  • Copy and paste the file uninstall_list.txt into your next reply.
