Trojan horses

Hi. I noticed from other threads tha this has been a popualr problem lately. While i was serfing the net two weeks ago,lokking for info about realplayer, my borowing was redirected to download anti spy ware ...the rest of the story is very similar the other threads. At the time i had symantics antivirus. i removed it and installed Mcafee and did a full scan. some infected files were removed. (don't ask me about the names because i didn't write them down), but the annoying message is still popping. I need your help to remove the annoying constantly popping mesage of " Attention (name), some dangerous trojan horses detected in your system. Microsoft windows xp files corrupted. This may lead to the destruction of important files in c:\windows. Download protective software now." Help please!

 

Hi helpplease
Welcome to Windowsbbs.

Please do this.

Download a copy of HijackThis installer from here and save it to your Desktop.

1. Save HJTInstall.exe to your desktop.
2. Double-click on the HJTintall.exe icon on your desktop.
   (Let it install to the default location C:\Program Files\Hijackthis)
3. Continue to click Next in the setup dialogue boxes until you get to the Select Additional Tasks dialogue.
4. Put a check by Create a desktop icon and then click Next again.
5. Continue to follow the rest of the prompts from there.
6. At the final dialogue box click Finish and it will launch HijackThis.
7. Click on the Do a system scan and save a log file button.
   (It will scan and the log should open in Notepad.)
8. Click on "Edit" > "Select All" to highlight the entire Notepad contents.
9. Then click on "Edit" > "Copy ".
10. Come back here to this thread and Paste the log in your next reply.
    (Right-click in the message body field and select "Paste ".)

CAUTION: DO NOT have HijackThis "fix" anything without carefully following expert guidance. Otherwise, you might render your computer unstable or even unbootable. Most of what HijackThis finds will be harmless or even required.

Thanks
Geri

Hi
P2P - I see you have P2P software ( Limewire, BitTorrent uTorrent, BearShare etc… ) installed on your machine. We are not here to pass judgment on file-sharing as a concept. However, we will warn you that engaging in this activity and having this kind of software installed on your machine will always make you more susceptible to re-infections. It may be contributing to your current situation. This page will give you further information.

Please note: Even if you are using a "safe" P2P program, it is only the program that is safe. You will be sharing files from uncertified sources, and these are often infected. The bad guys use P2P filesharing as a major conduit to spread their wares and their infections.

References for the risk of these programs are here,
here and here.

I would strongly recommend that you uninstall them, however that choice is up to you. If you choose to remove these programs, you can do so via Control Panel >> Add or Remove Programs.

Note: Please be advised that continued use of these programs after being warned of the danger of infections from them, may result in the discontinued help of future cleaning of your system here at Windowsbbs Virus and Spyware removal.

Now please do this.

Now download Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware (MBAM) from here or here and save the file to your desktop.

Double click mbam-setup.exe to install the application.

• Make sure a checkmark is placed next to Update Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware and Launch Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware, then click Finish.
• If an update is found, it will download and install the latest version.
• Once the program has loaded, select 'Perform Quick Scan', then click Scan.
• The scan may take some time to finish,so please be patient.
• When the scan is complete, click OK, then Show Results to view the results.
• Make sure that everything is checked, and click Remove Selected.
• When disinfection is completed, a log will open in Notepad and you may be prompted to Restart. (See Note below)
• The log is automatically saved by MBAM and can be viewed by clicking the Logs tab in MBAM.
• Post the entire report in your next reply along with a fresh HijackThis log.

Note: If MBAM encounters a file that is difficult to remove, you will be presented with 1 of 2 prompts. Click OK to either and let MBAM proceed with the disinfection process. If asked to restart the computer, please do so immediately.

Thanks
Geri
