Hi and welcome to the Daniweb forums :).

==========

Please read.

thanks, was going thru this, but posted just in case it dosen't work

ok the microsoft wmsr tool says scanning for abot an hour but its not moving, guess it froze up

atf cleaner deleted some temp files giving me 700mb more space

gmer scanner keeps causing the pc to restart after it statrs the second scan

mba-m is getting an error when i try to launch it, says:
"Only part or a ReadProcessMemory or WriteProcessMemory request was completed."

has anyone else ever have issues like these before?

Can you please do the following.


===============

Scan with HijackThis and then place a check next to all the following, if present:


R3 - URLSearchHook: Yahoo! Toolbar - {EF99BD32-C1FB-11D2-892F-0090271D4F88} - (no file)

F2 - REG:system.ini: Shell=Explorer.exe "C:\WINDOWS\sembako-cjzjlnh.exe"

O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [000] C:\WINDOWS\db4d\services.exe
O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [Bron-Spizaetus-cjhnlotq] "C:\WINDOWS\ShellNew\bbm-qtolnhjc.exe"
O4 - HKCU\..\Run: [000] C:\Documents and Settings\ric_djohn\Application Data\csrss.exe
O4 - HKCU\..\Run: [Tok-Cirrhatus-2520] "C:\Documents and Settings\ric_djohn\Local Settings\Application Data\br6063on.exe"


Now, close all instances of Internet Explorer and any other windows you have open except HiJackThis, click "Fix checked".

===============

Locate and delete the following item(s), if present. Make sure you are able to view system and hidden files/ folders:

folders...

C:\WINDOWS\db4d


files...

C:\WINDOWS\sembako-cjzjlnh.exe
C:\Documents and Settings\ric_djohn\Application Data\csrss.exe
C:\Documents and Settings\ric_djohn\Local Settings\Application Data\br6063on.exe
C:\WINDOWS\ShellNew\bbm-qtolnhjc.exe

-

Note that some of these file(s)/folder(s) may or may not be present. If present, and cannot be deleted because they're 'in use', try deleting them in Safe Mode by doing the following:

  • Restart your computer
  • After hearing your computer beep once during startup, but before the Windows icon appears, press F8.
  • Instead of Windows loading as normal, a menu should appear.

Select the first option to run Windows in Safe Mode hit enter.

-

Reboot.

===============

After rebooting, rescan with hijackthis and post back a new log. Please let me know how your pc is now.

ok i used hijackthis to fix the higlighted files, the main problem is deleting

can't delete these two files

C:\Documents and Settings\ric_djohn\Application Data\csrss.exe
C:\Documents and Settings\ric_djohn\Local Settings\Application Data\br6063on.exe

the option to view system/hidden files "tools/folder options" is not available, i suspect the virus has hidden this as there is no shutdown option as well

here is the new log

Please download ComboFix by sUBs from HERE or HERE

  • You must download it to and run it from your Desktop
  • Physically disconnect from the internet.
  • Now STOP all your monitoring programs (Antivirus/Antispyware, Guards and Shields) as they could easily interfere with ComboFix.
  • Double click combofix.exe & follow the prompts.
  • When finished, it will produce a log. Please save that log to post in your next reply along with a fresh HJT log
  • Re-enable all the programs that were disabled during the running of ComboFix..

Note:
Do not mouse-click combofix's window while it is running. That may cause it to stall.

CF disconnects your machine from the internet. The connection is automatically restored before CF completes its run. If CF runs into difficulty and terminates prematurely, the connection can be manually restored by restarting your machine.

Run Combofix ONCE only!!
