  1. thank you for your response. I have since updated my mbam to 1.34. However, now I start receiving Error Code 731 (0, 6) upon detection of 1 malware. I don't know how, or why. I have been searching this error all over the net and I have not yet come up with a solution that will get rid of it. So as of now, I know there's at least one malware that mbam has successfully detected but crashed upon detection. Spyboy s&d told me I was clean, so did vundofix. I installed HJT last night as well and ran it and got the log. I did a skim through comparison between mine and some of the infected logs here but i don't seem to be able to find any abnormalities. I suppose posting HJT is the way. Can you suggest anything about mbam crashing?
  2. Since installing Malwarebytes about 2 months ago, I have been completely malware free, until today. I initially noticed the slowdown after I had adobe flash open for about 8 hours on my laptop. I only say that to provide a temporal reference to my discovery, not because i suspect flash doing something fishy with my computer. Anyways, the reason i know something's gone wrong is when i see my firefox opening new tabs on its own that are directed to no purposeful website in particular. Naturally I ran malwarebytes, and found one trojan.vundo which i took care of shortly after. The following is the log from that scan: Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware 1.33 Database version: 1654 Windows 5.1.2600 Service Pack 2 2009-02-24 12:17:24 AM mbam-log-2009-02-24 (00-17-24).txt Scan type: Quick Scan Objects scanned: 14984 Time elapsed: 2 minute(s), 25 second(s) Memory Processes Infected: 0 Memory Modules Infected: 0 Registry Keys Infected: 0 Registry Values Infected: 0 Registry Data Items Infected: 0 Folders Infected: 0 Files Infected: 1 Memory Processes Infected: (No malicious items detected) Memory Modules Infected: (No malicious items detected) Registry Keys Infected: (No malicious items detected) Registry Values Infected: (No malicious items detected) Registry Data Items Infected: (No malicious items detected) Folders Infected: (No malicious items detected) Files Infected: C:\WINDOWS\system32\wvUlkIby.dll (Trojan.Vundo) -> Quarantined and deleted successfully. Afterward I ran the scan couple more time to make sure nothing else was happening. I was thanking malwarebytes and god at this point for saving my laptop again. Then earlier today, I open firefox to check my gmail. But something is weird because access gmail takes never this long, and after 2 good minutes of trying, gmail gave up and redirected me to "sorry" splash page claiming it was receiving requests from what seemed like a virus or a spyware. I tried to access some of the other popular websites like yahoo or google and found out this spyware was interfering with my access to certain websites. Of course, this has happened before and last time it happened it was the result of the vundo virus. I ran vundofix.exe, which solved my problem last time, but it told me i was clean. I just ran malwarebytes again and spybot s&d only to find i have no infection. Gmail is still painstakingly slow. My memory usage for a blank page in firefox shoots up to 70-80 (normally it's 40ish), although it uses less than 15% of CPU. Any hints? If nothing seems obvious, i will post the hijack log.
  3. Hi, I reinstalled my windows two days ago (no apparent reason) only to find that AFTER the format>installation my computer is now housing deluge of malwares and spywares. How do I know this? I took the hint when my firefox started opening new tabs with absurd addresses and IE started launching anti-virus software ads in new windows (this my girlfriend is the witness, not me... well at least not as of now). The truth is, before this reinstall, I had a similar problem. I was initially infected with pop-up malwares (then vundo) that not only opened ads and windows but also blocked my access to several sites (like google.com), which led me to resort to what then seemed the last option: reinstall windows. So I did clean format reinstall but immediately after my resintallation I was greeted with familar popups that never went away. I did fix this problem, however, with Vundofix from atribune.org (IIRC). For the next 8 months, my laptop was virus/spy/malware free. Until today. Well. I suppose until today is sort of a misnomer because I did reinstall winxp 2 days ago, which I credit this late night posting of desolation to. Enough with the introduction. There are two questions, including what the title of this thread would like to address. 1. Why would my otherwise clean harddrive suddenly contract seemingly indispensable trojans and spywares AFTER clean installation? 2. I ran MAMS, and initially received Error Code: 731 (0,6) at the first confrontation with an infected object. So naturally I did some googling and came up with suggestions and recommendations for fixing this very error code--with no avail. None of the suggested solutions has resolved the situation for me. Which is why I'm posting a new thread (the last thing I want to do, trust me). So if the great minds of the malwarebytes forum could rectify what seems to be the toughest PC related challenges to date, it will be immensely appreciated. Thank you for reading.
