That thread includes info about prior infections, removed by Spybot / AdAware. McAfee Security center has no positives. I have had no special requests for internet access from the firewall, except for this 'services.exe' which I removed, including the filedropper, the registry key to run the worm and the actual services.exe file. After that all scanners came up with clean status-reports.
but no malware analysis happened there. I'm not convinced it is a malware-related problem, but as it happened to almost coincide with the filedropper etc. it may be after all...
MY COMMENTS on the logs:
I see no immediate malware entries, but I only have a tiny bit of experience, so an extra opinion from more experienced malware fighters is welcome.
"Uniblue RegistryBooster 2009"=C:\Program Files\Uniblue\RegistryBooster\RegistryBooster.exe /S []
- I did not actually Run this software to fix anything. Only had it scan the registry to notice that it was telling nonsens. I then uninstalled the program, so I was surprised to find it in the currentversion run section of the log.
Shortcut to MEMO.lnk - C:\Documents and Settings\master\Desktop\Koen\2007 FinalMoveP133\Disk10\Program Files\memo\MEMO.EXE
- This is safe. It's a calendar tool I use for over 6 years

additionally, I ran a Kaspersky online scan, which came up with some stuff which seemed all quite harmless (in back-up files of old mailboxes etc. I kept them on my P133-win95 system, which I kept virusfree for 5 years without protection, until coolwebsearch took me by surprise), nothing active. It accused my cute3032 old cuteftp-installer to contain adware, as wel as my imageview.exe imageviewer-installer to contain a logger (C:\Documents and Settings\master\Desktop\Koen\Software\imgviewsetup.exe Infected: not-a-virus:Monitor.Win32.StarLogger.b), which is probably the module that asks for comments and user feedback...
So I'm still unsure if there's any malware active, or windows is just playing tricks. Is there a way to check if the Maximum Virtual Memory page file size has been altered recently?
I don't see anything malware related either. Did you do something to change Internet Explorer, such as install and remove IE7, repair IE6, etc? I ask because the log shows something changed around 8-13, though I cannot know what. Have you tried repairing IE6?
Thanks a lot for your opinion! really appreciate it!
I't 2AM over here, so I'm not sure if what I'm writing makes a lot of sense, but I did a search on creation date from August 13 till august 13. I can't find a way to export the result of the search function to a text file, but I am fairly convinced that it was either a important McAfee update or a windows autoupdate. There are auto-update logs that day, all starting with KB in front of the filename. I will do the search again tomorrow and take a closer look at these files. Some new .exe and .dll were installed, but nothing horrible at first sight. If I find extra info this week, I'll post it in this thread.
Some update logs that may shine a light on the events of that 13th of august:

Windows XP Update for Windows XP (KB951072) 13 augustus 2008 Automatic Updates
I suppose the active x updater could have played with the Internet explorer? I still use IE6 6.0.2900.2180 service pack 2 (service pack 3 update failed on the 19th of august, I just noticed this on the update server from Microsoft). Maybe upgrading to IE7 can fix my problem. (started approx. around second of october). So to be honest: I noticed the problem only much later than august 13th... . Does malware exists that makes permanent changes to memory behaviour / page file settings and stuff? Even after cleaning?
I stayed with IE6, because it ran extremely well without unexpected quits... My other option is to by some more ram or switch to firefox. :-) Or... to hope to find the glitch. I saw an error pop-up earlier today mentioning there was a socket error in G assert or something. I accidently hit the return key, before I could read it properly. It could be something quite different :-)
Any suggestions are welcome. I appreciate your help and feel already a bit guilty that I'm taking up some of your time you could spend on people with really serious malware acute infections. Mine were removed (I've had 2 malware issues recently (Virtumonde and win32.joleee.k). They were removed successfully by Spybot / AdAware.), and I'm actually beginning to think that my problem is not related to these, and it may be just a coincidence that I noticed the new problem at the same time (1 or 2 days before I noticed a filedropper / dropped file) on my desktop...
I did write about switching to Firefox, or adding RAM as a possible solution.
Meanwhile, I also took care of the Uniblue registry entry. I think it's a nice peace of sarcasm to make a registry cleaner, and then, when you choose to unintall, leave your own dirt behind in there... It's like a real life cleaning crew leaving mud traces on their way out :-)
Method 4: Reinstall Internet Explorer 6 by using the Ie.inf file
If you already have Windows XP Service Pack 2 installed, and you do not want to install Internet Explorer 7, you may be able to resolve problems with Internet Explorer 6 by using the Ie.inf file to reinstall Internet Explorer 6. To do this, follow these steps:
Let's see re-installing IE6 will help.
Click Start>Run and type (or copy and paste) %systemroot%\inf, then press Enter
Locate the Ie.inf file
Right-click the Ie.inf file, then select Install
If prompted for the XP installation cd, insert it to the cd-rom drive and click OK, or click Browse and navigate to and select the i386 folder on your drive (you may want to do a search for this ahead of time .... usually in C: or C:\Windows) then click OK
Restart the computer when the file copy process is complete
I'm not sure that I won't be bothered any longer from the memory problem yet BUT it looks very promising:
- internet explorer launch is faster now
- navigating / saving files is faster
- shutting down windows in global is faster
- Today, 24 hours after I did the IE6 fix, I got a new automatic update offer for Windows service pack 3. It downloaded and installed succesfully this time.
just guessing: something prevented internet explorer to unload temp data it kept in the process, to the actual temporary files folder. access to this folder is much faster also since the IE6 fixing procedure.
So thanks again. Unless I run into strange RAM-related error messages / behaviour again during the next day, I think looks a bit like a 'resolved' issue...
Lets make sure we rule out any rootkits, since your logs didn't show signs of malware. Download GMER
Right click and extract it to it's own folder on the desktop.
Open the program and click on the Rootkit tab.
Make sure all the boxes on the right of the screen are checked, EXCEPT for ‘Show All’.
Click on Scan.
When the scan has completed, click Copy and paste the results (if any) into this topic.
