Spyware causing lsass.exe/services.exe to terminate crashing pc

Question

I don't know exactly what's going on but I'm getting an alert from NT Authority/System that either services.exe or lsass.exe has terminated unexpectedly... status code 128... system will now shutdown and restart.

I know spyware has something to do with the whole thing since I have instances of root.exe and FireDaemon.exe in the services section according to hijackthis.

Here's the log...

Hi,

Please download AgoBot and SDBot removal tools from Sophos.

Download Ewido and install it. Double-click on its icon to run it, you will get "Database not found" error, click "OK" to it. Next, click "Update" button in the left pane and click "Start update" button to start the update process. After this, exit from Ewido.

Boot the PC in safe mode.

Go to Start > Run nad type services.msc and press ENTER. This will bring you Services window. Here navigate to the service named IPSEC NT Service (IPSECM) - Cat Soft and click "Properties". Here, in the "Status" dialog box, click "Stop". Next, in the "Startup type" dialog box, select "Disabled". Click "Apply" and "OK".

Do the above mentioned steps for these services too:-
FireDaemon Service: mmtask (mmtask)
Mouse Button Monitor (mousebm)
Mouse Cursor Monitor (mousecrm)
FireDaemon Service: smss (smss)
Windows Product Activation (wpa)
WUPDATE_TEMP

Run HijackThis and select these entries:-

O23 - Service: IPSEC NT Service (IPSECM) - Cat Soft - C:\WINNT\WUPDATE_TEMP\sys32.exe
O23 - Service: FireDaemon Service: mmtask (mmtask) - Unknown owner - C:\WINNT\WUPDATE_TEMP\FireDaemon.EXE
O23 - Service: Mouse Button Monitor (mousebm) - Unknown owner - C:\WINNT\System32\mousebm.exe
O23 - Service: Mouse Cursor Monitor (mousecrm) - Unknown owner - C:\WINNT\System32\mousecrm.exe
O23 - Service: FireDaemon Service: smss (smss) - Unknown owner - C:\WINNT\WUPDATE_TEMP\FireDaemon.EXE
O23 - Service: Windows Product Activation (wpa) - Unknown owner - C:\WINNT\System32\wpa.exe
O23 - Service: WUPDATE_TEMP - Unknown owner - C:\WINNT\WUPDATE_TEMP\root.exe

Close all other open programs and click "Fix Checked" in HijackThis.

Delete these files:-
C:\WINNT\System32\mousebm.exe
C:\WINNT\System32\mousecrm.exe
C:\WINNT\System32\wpa.exe

Delete this folder:-
C:\WINNT\WUPDATE_TEMP

Run SDBotGUI and click "Configuration". Here click "Scan All Files" and click "OK". Next, click "Go" to start scanning.

After this, run AgoBotGUI and click "Config". Here click "Scan All Files" and click "OK". Next, click "Go" to start the scan.

Finally run Ewido, click on the "Scanner" button in the left menu, then click on the "Start" button.
If ewido finds anything, it will pop up a notification. You can select "Clean" and check the boxes "Perform action with all infections" and "Create encrypted backup" before clicking on OK.

Reboot back to normal mode. Run HijackThis and post a fresh log. Also post whether SDBotGUI and AgoBotGUI found anything or not.

Hi Quezl, welcome back :D

Please follow these instructions to remove root.exe:

http://securityresponse.symantec.com/avcenter/venc/data/codered.removal.tool.html

http://securityresponse.symantec.com/avcenter/venc/data/w32.gruel@mm.html

And here for wpa.exe:

http://securityresponse.symantec.com/avcenter/venc/data/w32.esbot.b.html

FireDaemon.EXE is a legitimate program that allows you to run any program as a service. If you didn't install it yourself, it's possible that somebody with malicious intentions installed it to take control of your PC (or to spy on you).

Follow the recommendations and instructions in the links below to help protect your PC (Windows Update), clean your system up a bit, and give you some info on HijackThis.

When you've finished all that, close any open browser windows, scan with HJT, and post a new log please.

Thanks guys,

I went ahead and performed the fix as instructed by swatkat. Everything seems to have gone well with one problem...

services.exe is still terminating, which is still causing my pc to restart.

Whether it ever had anything to do with the spyware I had on my machine or not, I can't say, maybe you guys can help me with that.

Here's a post of a hijackthis log (WITHOUT IE open this time ;) ) and I'll go ahead and post the Ewido report as well.

::Report End

All I can report is when I'm in safe mode services.exe doesn't terminate.

Any help you guys can give me in pointing me in the right direction to get this fix would be a big help, like if I need to post my problem to another forum because it's not related to spyware.

Thanks guys for all you've done.

Hi,
Please download WinPFind and extract it to a folder. Next, double-click on the WinPFind.exe file to run it. Then click "Start Scan". After the scan, post the log of WinPFind.

All done (had to do it about 5 times since pc kept restarting)...

WARNING: not all files found by this scanner are bad. Consult with a knowledgable person before proceeding.

If you see a message in the titlebar saying "Not responding..." you can ignore it. Windows somethimes displays this message due to the high volume of disk I/O. As long as the hard disk light is flashing, the program is still working properly.

Hi,
Delete this file:-
C:\WINNT\system32\system.pif
Also, download Dr.Web CureIT and run a scan. Because, i can see a file called C:\WINNT\system32\.exe which may not be possible to locate!

Hey Swatkat,

I THINK I FIXED THE PROBLEM!

From the looks of things it actually never had anything to do with all the spyware I had on my pc (which you so graciously helped me take care of).

First I deleted C:\WINNT\system32\system.pif and was even able to find and delete C:\WINNT\system32\.exe and still no success. I ran Dr Web CureIT and it didn't really find anything so I was getting ready to post the bad news.

But after a search on Ggl I found out that there had been a problem with the Zotob worm and Win2k machines starting on Aug 15 (which is exactly when my problem started) for which MS released a security patch.

So I upgraded to sp4 and applied the security update 899588 http://www.microsoft.com/technet/security/Bulletin/MS05-039.mspx and BOOM, no more problem.

So pass the word if you get any other simular issues.

Anyway, thanks a million for all your help as I had a ton of spyware on my pc, which as usual, you guys came through for me like you do for so many other people.

But don't rest on your loins yet, because while this pc was on the fritz, I found out my trustie backup laptop had MORE spyware problems than this one did.

So look for a post for that one soon.

Thanks again, you guys are the best!
