I ran across a Trojan that Bitdiffender is not able to remove. I made sure that I had the latest update and ran a deep system scan before posting.

Below is a link to the log file:

Please provide instructions on how to remove this from my system. I am running Windows XP

Thanks for your help.

First, thank you for your quick response and help! I appreciate your efforts.

As requested, I ran an update and immediately followed that with a Deep Scan. As per the norm the trojan did show up and a log was generated. I will post the sendspace link below. I am completely new to this forum and have never encountered a trojan so problematic as this one. I appreciate your time, patience, and suggestions.... Best regards.

Alex,

I followed the directions I received via email, but when I go to the "Files" tab, all I can see is the C:, when I click on it, no files come up. I ran the scan to make sure I didn't miss something, and I can see the infected files under the "Rootkit/Malware" tab, but can not delete it from there. Am I missing something? - Gail

In order to remove the infected objects from your computer you need to perform the following steps:

1. Disable the BitDefender real-time protection and/or any other active security solution(s) that you are using; 2. Save the GMER tool (and then extract it if needed) to a location of your

choice:

RECOMMENDED: http://www.gmer.net/download.php

alternative: http://www.bitdefender.com/files/KnowledgeBase/file/gmr.zip

or use the version attached to this email: gmr.zip (not available for all email providers) 3. Make sure you close all active applications and then run the tool; 4. Allow the tool a few moments to load up and perform the initial scan; 5. In the upper left of the GMER window, you will see the tab "Rootkit/Malware" and ">>>"; Please click on ">>>"; Next click on the tab "Files"; 6. Use the tree list on the left to browse and the list on the right to locate the following file(s):

C:\WINDOWS\system32\hjgruitnpspwmt.dll

7. Once you located the file select it with one click (in the list on the right), then press the button "Delete"; A new window will open asking you to confirm (choose "Yes"); 8. Close the tool once this operation is complted.

In order to check whether the virus removal procedure has succeeded, we recommend another complete scan of your computer with BitDefender.

[how to DISABLE THE REAL-TIME PROTECTION on BitDefender 2009]

In order to disable the real-time protection please open BitDefender, "switch to Advanced View", go to "Antivirus" > "Shield" and click on "Real-time protection is enabled", select the time interval that suites your troubleshooting needs and click "OK" (the message will change to "Real-time protection is disabled"). The real-time protection should be enabled after performing the troubleshooting procedure.

If the situation persists or you require further assistance please do not hesitate to contact us.

Hello stormygsa ,

In some cases Gmer is not useful in removing some infected files. My colleagues have finished the analysis of the files that we had from you . We have sent you an email with further instructions on how to provide us a sample with a file from your system . Please reply as soon as possible.

Thank you .

Hi Alex,

I was able to do the beginning portion of the instructions -

1. Disable the BitDefender real-time protection and/or any other active security solution(s) that you are using; 2. Display hidden objects in Windows (how to information is written bellow);

I am having problems with this part -

3. Locate the suspect/infected files:

C:\WINDOWS\system32\hjgruitnpspwmt.dll

Help! I ran the bitdefender scan again and the trojan is still there.

Hi all,

I too have been hit by this virus, and after much searching of the net have done everything suggested so far.

Just a thought on a possible solution, I'm not the best with computers but might have stumbled across a way to manually sht this virus down - someone with far more knowledge will stop me if I'm wrong I'm sure.

What if you use the registry editor to disable it? It's located under HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE \ SYSTEM \ ControlSet003 \ Services \ CryptSvc. If you right click on this folder and go to permissions, select advanced, then untick "Inherit from parent the permission entries that apply to child objects", you can then remove the owner from having permissions. Which in theory means you're back in full control, so what would be stopping you from deleting the whole registry entry, followed byt he following files:

C:\WINDOWS\system32\crypt32.dll

C:\WINDOWS\system32\cryptdlg.dll

C:\WINDOWS\system32\cryptdll.dll

C:\WINDOWS\system32\cryptext.dll

C:\WINDOWS\system32\cryptnet.dll

C:\WINDOWS\system32\cryptsvc.dll

C:\WINDOWS\system32\cryptui.dll

Then, delete the quarantined files that BitDefender initially picked up on, and I'd think that the registry cleaner in BitDefender should clean up the last few links. I know it's not the perfect solution, but might be better than wiping your hard drive and reinstalling everything.

Or have I over-complicated things with the above and there's already a professional fix lol? Hoping a solution is made available soon.

Thanks,

Neon

I'm starting to get very frustrated now. I now have 56 infected files. Nothing you've told me to do has helped! Now what?

Sm3K3R

stormygsa ,in the intention of helping you i ve send you a PM with some advices.Reply me with a PM if any of those finds anything.

It would be nice to not delete what those scaners find ,but to archive the infected files (before removing them) with passoword infected and upload them to some file hosting service.Post here a link to those files maybe some virus resercher will look into it.

Do not mention those scanners name here .

Good Luck!

Link to the files that I mentioned, as you suggest Sm3K3R: http://www.sendspace.com/file/w2fipy

Also noticed it's not just HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE \ SYSTEM \ ControlSet003 \ Services but also HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE \ SYSTEM \ ControlSet002 \ Services, and disabling the owners permissions in one control set didn't work - permissions were fully restored (and OWNER added back to the list of permissions groups) once restarted, but this was before I'd realised it's in ControlSet002.

Hope this helps all, this thing is driving me nuts. Almost tempted to wipe the whole OS and start again <img class= " /> . I know it's not BitDefender's fault.

Later I'm going to deliberately infect another machine here, delete the files I mentioned and the registry entries and see what happens - it's an old machine and about to be wiped anyway so it won't hurt. Will post the results once I've done it.

Yell out if you want more info.

Thanks for your advice Sm3K3R,

Unfortunately, only two files were able to be removed using the programs you suggested. I can't get one of them to work on my computer either and the website does not have any troubleshooting ideas. I now have 56 files infected and figure I'm out of luck. Its very depressing since I rarely go to unknown websites and have no idea how I got this in the first place. I guess I'll have to pay someone to try and remove it or to reformat my computer, since I don't have the knowledge to do it myself.

I appreciate your help though.

Hello

I too have the same virus (approx 49 instances). I've tried downloading the AVIS and GMER apps, but I get an error when trying to run the AVIS app ("R6034 An application has made an attempt to load the C runtime library incorrectly. Please contact the application's support team for more information")

Looks like it may be missing a dll or something. Any ideas on where I can get a different build? Any other ideas?

Also, do you know when BitDefender will adddress this in their next virus definitions?

I've attached a copy of the GMER scan.

Thanks

Larry
