Trojan.Daonol keeps returning

[joeyb]

Hello. Malwarebytes will remove a trojan from my computer but the same exact thing keeps coming back every scan. It always seems to reappear right after it is deleted. Another problem I am having is that my browser unexpectedly closes and this has happened numerous times. I'm not really sure what is going on. I would appreciate any help. Thanks in advance.

Hi,

I see you are running Teatimer.

I suggest you to disable it because it can interfere with the changes you'll make on your system.

When everything is done and your log is clean again, you can enable it again.

If teatimer gives you a warning afterwards that some changes were made, allow this instead of blocking it.

How to disable TeaTimer <== click me for instructions.

Then, * Start HijackThis, close all open windows leaving only HijackThis running. Place a check against each of the following:

O2 - BHO: (no name) - {06849E9F-C8D7-4D59-B87D-784B7D6BE0B3} - (no file)

O2 - BHO: (no name) - {431E585F-0074-4A8C-B667-3F0196E093A3} - C:\WINDOWS\system32\byXRhIcc.dll (file missing)

O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [Alcmtr] ALCMTR.EXE

O4 - Global Startup: Microsoft Office.lnk = C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office\Office10\OSA.EXE <== this is a resource hog

O20 - AppInit_DLLs: hanjnq.dll

* Click on Fix Checked when finished and exit HijackThis.

Make sure your Internet Explorer is closed when you click Fix Checked!

Then, * Open hijackthis, click 'config' (bottom right)

Choose the tab 'misc Tools' on top.

Choose 'delete a file on reboot'

In the field, copy and paste next:

C:\WINDOWS\uer.qcx

Click open.

Hijackthis will tell you that this file will be deleted on next reboot and if you want to reboot now. Click Yes/ok

Your system should reboot now.

Let me know if that solved your problem.

[joeyb]

yes that solved my problem. everything appears to be good. thank you!

[miekiemoes]

Glad I could help.

Please read my Prevention page with lots of info and tips how to prevent this in the future.

And if you want to improve speed/system performance after malware removal, take a look here.

Extra note: Make sure your programs are up to date - because older versions may contain Security Leaks. To find out what programs need to be updated, please run the Secunia Software Inspector Scan.

Happy Surfing again!
