Recycle Bin Help

[tamster]

Each time i start up my laptop the recycle bin shows something in it without me sending it there,

RB6. tmp
TMP File
0KB

and

RB11.tmp
TMP File
0KB

This has started over the last week or two, is their anything to worry over,

Cheers lads.

Yes, that file has been determined to be bad - part of a computer infection... It probably means that a protection program is trying to deal with it, but that the main infection persists... Please post a HijackThis log so we can see what is going on...

http://www.merijn.org/programs.php

To run HJT, extract it to a permanent folder such as one you create like C:\HJT or the Desktop. Close all open windows and
browsers and make sure that all programs are enabled if you use msconfig. Run it and Scan, then Save the log.
When the log window appears, Right click to Copy it, open your browser and come here to Paste the entire log. Do
not make any changes until it is checked since most items are either benign or essential to the computer. Make sure that WordWrap is turned off in Notepad
and use as many posts as needed to paste it all here...

Your log looks okay and it is possible that the infection was killed by a program you have... However, I suggest you run this to get a better idea:

1. Download this file - combofix.exe
2. Double click combofix.exe & follow the prompts.
3. When finished, it will produce a log for you. Post that log in your next reply

Note:
Do not mouseclick combofix's window whilst it's running. That may cause it to stall...

[tamster]

Thanks for the help Budfred, sorry i have not posted sooner.

When i started my pc i got the same files in the recycle bin again

[Budfred]

It is not clear what the infection is, although it appears that ComboFix recognized it enough to remove some files... This one is somewhat suspicious:

C:\WINDOWS\system32\drivers\freedom.sys

See if you can find it and check Properties to see if it is a program/company you recognize...

Then I suggest running a couple more scans...

http://www.atribune.org/ccount/click.php?id=1

* Double-click ATF-Cleaner.exe to run the program.
* Under Main choose: Select All
* Click the Empty Selected button.

If you use Firefox browser

* Click Firefox at the top and choose:Select All
* Click the Empty Selected button.
* NOTE: If you would like to keep your saved passwords, please click
* No at the prompt.

If you use Opera browser

* Click Opera at the top and choose: Select All
* Click the Empty Selected button.
* NOTE:If you would like to keep your saved passwords, please click No at the prompt.

Click Exit on the Main menu to close the program.

Then this:

* Download Dr.Web CureIt to the desktop:
ftp://ftp.drweb.com/pub/drweb/cureit/drweb-cureit.exe

• Doubleclick the drweb-cureit.exe file and Allow to run the express scan
• This will scan the files currently running in memory and when something is found, click the yes button when it asks you if you want to cure it. This is only a short scan.
• Once the short scan has finished, mark the drives that you want to scan.
• Select all drives. A red dot shows which drives have been chosen.
• Click the green arrow at the right, and the scan will start.
• Click 'Yes to all' if it asks if you want to cure/move the file.
• When the scan has finished, look if you can click next icon next to the files found:
• If so, click it and then click the next icon right below and select Move incurable as you'll see in next image:
  
  This will move it to the %userprofile%\DoctorWeb\quarantaine-folder if it can't be cured. (this in case if we need samples)
• After selecting, in the Dr.Web CureIt menu on top, click file and choose save report list
• Save the report to your desktop. The report will be called DrWeb.csv
• Close Dr.Web Cureit.
• Reboot your computer!! Because it could be possible that files in use will be moved/deleted during reboot.
• After reboot, post the contents of the log from Dr.Web you saved previously in your next reply.

And finish (for now) with this:

* Click here to use the F-Secure Online Scanner

• Then click the Start Scanning button below.
• You should get a notification (bar on top) to install the activeX. Click on it and select to install the ActiveX.
• Once the ActiveX is installed, you should accept the License terms by clicking OK below to start the scan.
• In case you are having problems with installing the ActiveX/starting the scan, please read here.
• Click the Full System Scan button.
• It will start to download scanner components and databases. This can take a while.
• The main scan will start.
• Once the scan finished scanning, click the Automatic cleaning (recommended) button
• It could be possible that your firewall gives an alert - allow it, because that's a connection you establish to submit infected files to F-Secure.
• The cleaning can take a while, so please be patient.
• Then click the Show report button and copy and paste what's present under results in your next reply.

Post all the logs in as many posts as it takes to fit them all in...

Are those files still showing up?? How is your system running?? That may have taken out the bad files... Also, did you run ATF-Cleaner??

[tamster]

Yes each time i start up new ones are in the recycle bin

My laptot is running the same as before i noticed these files

ATF-cleaner i dont know what that is ,i hope/think i've followed everything you've told me to do

[Budfred]

ATF-cleaner i dont know what that is ,i hope/think i've followed everything you've told me to do

ATF-Cleaner was the first tool listed in my earlier post with DrWebCureIt and F-Secure... Go ahead and run it and then run these:

Download AVG Anti-Spyware from HERE

• Install AVG Anti-Spyware
• Double-click the icon on Desktop to launch AVG Anti-Spyware

You will need to update AVG Anti-Spyware to the latest definition files.

• On the top of the main screen click Shield and then [active] to change it to inactive
• On the top of the main screen click Update and then Start Update.
• Once the update has completed select the "Scanner" icon at the top of the screen, then select the "Settings" tab.
• Once in the Settings screen click on "Recommended actions" and then select "Quarantine".

Close ALL open Windows / Programs / Folders. Run AVG Anti-Spyware with it's updated definitions...it's important that all windows must be closed)

* Click Scanner and then the Scan tab
* Click Complete System Scan to begin scanning.

Once the scan is complete do the following:
* If you have any infections you will prompted, then select "Apply all actions"
* Once finished, click the Save report button, then click Save Report As and save it to your Desktop. (make sure to remember where you saved that file, this is important).

Close AVG Anti-Spyware and Reboot.

and then:

Please download SilentRunners from here:
http://www.silentrunners.org/Silent%20Runners.zip
Unzip it to the desktop and double-click on it. If you get any kind of warning message about scripts, please choose to allow the script to run. When the scan is finished, it will create a logfile on the desktop. Please post the entire contents of this logfile for me to see.

Post the AVG-AS and Silent Runners log when you are done...

Budfred, i did do the AFT cleaner earlier on and it never showed any problems

::Report end

I have ran the silent runners program and for the life of me i cant find it anywhere (its not on the desktop) is it called "combofix-quarantined -files"
and i am still getting the file in the recycle bin , it seems to be the same file now
RB4.tmp
TMP File
0KB

[Budfred]

ATF-Cleaner is not supposed to find anything to report, it just cleans out temporary folders...

Is that the whole AVG-AS log??

Silent Runners takes a long time to run and it is likely you closed it before fixing it... Let it run until it produces the log...

I am not sure what you are saying here...

Your log looks clean... I found at least one source that suggests those files could have been made by an antivirus and I am not familiar with the one you use, so that may be where they are coming from... If it is an infection, it seems to be a Hotbar item called SpamblockerUtility and I don't see any evidence that you have that other than those files... I suggest you clean out the Recycle Bin, go offline, turn off your antivirus (and set it to NOT load on reboot) and reboot... If the files are not created, it is a clue that the antivirus is the source... Turn the antivirus back on before going online... Let me know what you find...

Done as you have said , rebooted and NO files in the recycle bin

I have uninstalled the anti-virus "PC Guard" that i as using (i was never comfortable with it anyways)" and installed AVG A/V i hope that's ok

Thanks again Budfred for your time and patience, much appreciated

[Budfred]

Well the good thing about it is that it helped you find some other infections that weren't showing up...

Here is my prevention speech to help avoid future infection:

This is a good time to set up protection against further attacks. Read the article linked below about "How did I
get infected". You need an antivirus that is updated, a good firewall (a router firewall is not enough) and a
spyware blocker like SpywareBlaster and also IE-Spyads. Using a different browser like FireFox with NoScripts is better than IE...
All of these have good free versions available... be very cautious about any security software that advertises in popups or other intrusive ways, they are not only usually
useless, but also often have malware in them....
