The other computer
« on: May 12, 2009, 02:59:55 PM »
Some info:
This computer is my parents'.  It's about four years old, I think.  I'm pretty sure it has never been updated with anything but Norton 360.
If there is any info on the computer that you need, besides the HijackThis log, please let me know.
Problems:
- Browsers load very slowly
- Some .dll files are missing (I saw this in the log I'll post)
- A virus keeps popping up that Norton detects: backdoor.tidserv.exe
Norton does not seem to be able to resolve the problem.  It pops up daily.
- Sites are sometimes slow to load.  The browser occasionally has to be shutdown using taskmanager.
- When I do open taskmanager, I notice something weird that's been there for awhile.  Under the user applications that are running, even if there is no browser running, or one iexplorer.exe running, there is almost ALWAYS a browser program running in the background.  Mozilla has begun to display this problem.  I just noticed this.  Mozilla was the only browser running (one window, one tab in use), but the taskmanager list displayed 2 iexplorer.exe running and 2 mozilla.exe running.  I can shut down the programs, but they inevitably come back.

The best I have ever been able to do is keep the computer running semi-functionally.  There have been x number of viruses, spyware, adware on this thing over the years.  My father will click on any ad that pops up, and if it looks good, he is all for it.  If it promises him some wonder miracle to fix the problems he has generated over the years, he'll download it without a second thought.  I have explained numerous times the harmful consequences of these actions.  Nothing I say works.
What I would like is some help resolving the issues I stated above, along with any other issues that might be present, and then advice on how to keep this computer protected despite it's user.  I would also like to be able to repair the problems that have been caused, if that is possible.
I have seriously considered just letting him mess it up beyond all comprehension.  But I want one last try before I wash my hands.

So, here goes.  Here's the log:

I'm a little short on time tonight, but in the meantime, can you do the following please

Download ComboFix from one of these locations:

[color=\"#0000FF\"]Link 1[/color]
[color=\"#0000FF\"]Link 2[/color]
  • If you are using Firefox, make sure that your download settings are as follows:
  • Tools->Options->Main tab
  • Set to "Always ask me where to Save the files".
  • During the download, rename Combofix to Combo-Fix as follows:


    * It is important you rename Combofix during the download, but not after.
        * Please do not rename Combofix to other names, but only to the one indicated.
    SAVE IT ONLY TO YOUR DESKTOP

      --------------------------------------------------------------------
[color=\"#2E8B57\"]Disable your AntiVirus and AntiSpyware applications, usually via a right click on the System Tray icon. They may otherwise interfere with some tools[/color]
     
  • Double click on Combo-Fix.exe & follow the prompts.
  • As part of it's process, ComboFix will check to see if the Microsoft Windows Recovery Console is installed. With malware infections being as they are today, it's strongly recommended to have this pre-installed on your machine before doing any malware removal. It will allow you to boot up into a special recovery/repair mode that will allow us to more easily help you should your computer have a problem after an attempted removal of malware.
  • Follow the prompts to allow ComboFix to download and install the Microsoft Windows Recovery Console, and when prompted, agree to the End-User License Agreement to install the Microsoft Windows Recovery Console.


[color=\"#2e8b57\"]**Please note: If the Microsoft Windows Recovery Console is already installed, ComboFix will continue it's malware removal procedures.
[/color]



Once the Microsoft Windows Recovery Console is installed using ComboFix, you should see the following message:



Click on Yes, to continue scanning for malware.

When finished, it shall produce a log for you.  C:\Combo-Fix.txt
I'll need to see that log later
Afterwards: Do the following

Go to [color=\"#FF0000\"]Kaspersky website[/color] and perform an online antivirus scan.

   1. Read through the requirements and privacy statement and click on Accept button.
   2. It will start downloading and installing the scanner and virus definitions. You will be prompted to install an application from Kaspersky. Click Run.
   3. When the downloads have finished, click on Settings.
   4. Make sure these boxes are checked (ticked). If they are not, please tick them and click on the Save button:
            [color=\"#FF0000\"]Spyware, Adware, Dialers, and other potentially dangerous programs
            Archives
            Mail databases[/color]
   5. Click on My Computer under Scan.
   6. Once the scan is complete, it will display the results. Click on View Scan Report.
   7. You will see a list of infected items there. Click on Save Report As....
   8. Save this report to a convenient place. Change the Files of type to Text file (.txt) before clicking on the Save button. Then post it here.

Please include all the following in your next reply

1. The report from Kaspersky's
2. The log from Combo-Fix
3. Run a fresh scan and save logfile with Hijackthis and post it

This may take until the weekend to get done.  Just to let you know.
