Full Version: Acer Aspire Infected

This is an Acer Aspire 3003 notebook running XP Pro. AMD Sempron 3.0 w/512 M RAM. This belongs to a friend’s foreign exchange student. When brought to me it was severly infected, several error messages at startup, popups, lockups etc. Ran the typical removals:
CCleaner
Cool Web Shredder
AdAware (Safe Mode – twice)
Spybot (Safwe Mode – twice)
AVG Antivirus
AVG 7.5 Anitvirus
Trend Micro Housecall
Cleaned up msconfig

Each scan found numerous infections (first run of AdAware found over 1200). Trend Micro Housecall would never complete. Got to the “Removing and Deleting
Spyware and Grayware”, and that’s it, would never get beyond this point, even after several hours. Ran hijack this, removed several entries (consider myself a good log analyzer) but need an expert. After reboot, AVG found several Trojans, and several new entries were discovered in msconfig (file attached). Also, HiJackThis has several new entries that weren’t there the last time (most notably NewDot). Was able to restore internet connectivity with LSP fix, but obviously problems remain. On startup I am now getting a “the system has recovered from a serious error, please tell Microsoft about this problem, etc.”. My HJT log file follows. Thanks in advance for your expert assistance.

Welcome to the forum. biggrin.gif
You definitely have an infected computer.

Run BitDefender Online Scanner
  • Using internet Explorer please go HERE to run BitDefender's Online scan.
  • Read the terms and then click I Agree
  • You may receive a Security Warning about the BitDefender ActiveX control, If you do, please allow it to install.
  • On the scanning Options screen, Press Click Here To Scan and then follow the on screen prompts.
  • Once bit defender is finished scanning your computer it will automatically remove the infections. Once the removal process is finished press the close button and a dialog box will appear asking if you want to send your scan log back to the makers of bitdefender. You do not have to do this but what you do want to do is press the button that says "view log" and then copy and paste that log into notepad and save it to your desktop as bitdefender.txt.
  • Reboot your computer

  2. Once the update is finished click the scan your computer button.
  3. Check Perform Complete Scan and then next.
