Receiving regular Malwarebytes popup regarding blocking an incoming IP

[AlexSch]

Dear all, thank you for your help.

 

I installed the PRO version of Malwarebytes on my daughter's XP machine (after picking up a problem on my own machine). Some malware was found and removed on her machine (the machine this report comes from). Popups then started regarding the blocking an incoming potentially dangerous sites, from various IP addresses (similar to other such postings on this forum). I am uncertain if I should follow the advice offered for others (since my case relates to incoming (not outgoing) IPs and this is an older machine running XP.

 

Here is the DDS log, advice would be greatly appreciated:

Dear MrC,

 

Thanks for the welcome and your help.

 

Proceeding:

 

When I went to the infected machine to respond to you (I read my email on my iPad) , there was a system message of the system having responded to a fatal error - I guess this is a symptom. The normal Windows suggestions came up on me reporting the error (i.e. ensure that Windows is updated etc.) Thinking on it, there were a couple of unhandled exceptions after having run Malwarebytes on previous days on starting up the machine (typically memory not available for read/write).

 

When I tried to login to the Outlook web app to gain access to my email on the infected machine, the login kept failing, I have a printout that I can share if that would help. In short - LiveId authentication code has returned error 0x80049234 (Post Ticket Time Window Expired). So sending you the Attach file was a temporary challenge. I managed to place it on DropBox (this posting comes from another machine where I can login to my mail)

 

The Attach file is available to this posting. I will now make a printout of your advice on the other machine and proceed as suggested, subsequent posts to follow.

Results to the previously requested actions:

 

1. I am not aware of any pirate s/w on my daughter's machine, there are definitely no torrents active. She bought the machine from her previous company (after that shut down).

 

2. System restore is enabled on the infected machine.

 

3. XP Pro version 2002 SP 3 refers. Celeron CPU 430 @ 1.73 GHz 1.49 GB RAM. (So I ran the 32 bit version of Rogue Killer.)

 

4. The killer found problems (and as instructed I have not changed anything in response).  The log is attached.

 

I did not see any new Malwarebytes IP warnings during the above action.

 

As an aside - what I did do just after my initial post was to change the machine's password as a precautionary measure, I did nothing else.

 

I hope this helps.

OK..lets run some scans:

First.....

Please read the directions carefully so you don't end up deleting something that is good!!

If you get the warning about a file UnsignedFile.Multi.Generic or LockedFile.Multi.Generic please choose

Skip and click on Continue

If a suspicious object is detected, the default action will be Skip, click on Continue

Please note that TDSSKiller can be run in safe mode if needed.

Please download the latest version of TDSSKiller from HERE and save it to your Desktop.

• Doubleclick on TDSSKiller.exe to run the application, then click on Change parameters.

  

• Put a checkmark beside loaded modules.

Responding to your stability question in the previous posting:

+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

I note that drive C: now has a lot more space, that is encouraging..

 

There were no further "system has recovered from a serious problem" type messages or unhandled memory exception events while running the scanning/cleaning processes.

 

I note that an app (that I believed caused problems on my other machine and as loaded when Samsung KIES is linstalled) namely "Myfree CODEC" was indeed identified as a PUP.

 

This XP machine is a slow machine, so I am uncertain if the long bootup time (relatively speaking) and the delays before opening Internet Exporer pages are due to that fact and the machine's lack of RAM, rather than an infection/malfunction.

 

Whle Malwarebytes was running its scan as logged above I again received another one of those "Successfully blocked access to a potentially malicious website: 60.173.11.155    Type incoming" message. That's bad news since that triggered my forum posting.

 

I tried to access the Office 365 web app in Explorer and I still see the following result (I can access that URL on my other machine that is running Windows 8.1):

 

 

Microsoft.Exchange.Clients.Security.LiveTransientHRESULTException: LiveId authentication code has returned error 0x80049234 PP_E_RPS_REASON_POST_TICKET_TIMEWINDOW_EXPIRED, indicating that there's a temporary problem with the remote server.

Should I remove any of the cleanup tools/scanners that are currently still on the XP machine's desktop, are there other actions that you recommend that might be having a residual effect? In the meantime I have AVG and Malwarebytes active at this time.

Some info on IP blocking:

The Website/IP Blocking is a good feature of Malwarebytes, but when it does its job....people think they're infected. Sometimes this is true, but we checked the system and I don't see any malware on the system.

My protection logs have similar notifications.

I have my notifications (only) turned off, that setting is under the "Protection Tab" in Malwarebytes.

If you would like to contact Malwarebytes about the problem, here's your options:

http://forums.malwarebytes.org/index.php?showtopic=119858

Here's some more information on IP Blocking by Malwarebytes:

IP blocks can indicate a number of things:

• They could indicate that MBAM is doing its job of blocking bad content on websites.

• They can also occur when running Skype and certain P2P programs, such as torrents. For example, please see this help desk topic about Skype and this one about P2P.

• In some cases the blocks are a false positive.

• However, they can also be a sign of infection, especially if the blocks are outgoing and they occur when no browsers are open.

--> There is more information about the IP blocking module in the FAQ - Section G (and in the Helpdesk topics HERE and HERE).

They include instructions on how to set MBAM to ignore a particular IP, if you wish to do so.

They also contain instructions on how to determine what process might be trying to make the connections.

You may also research the IP in question at www.ip-lookup.net or a similar site.

On the other hand, if you think the IP blocks might be a false positive, then please read this sticky topic before starting a new topic in the False Positives forum.

Alternatively, if you think you might be infected, based on the IP blocks and/or other suspicious computer behavior, then please read the following for the available options to have a malware expert assist you with cleaning process Available Assistance For Possibly Infected Computers.

Lets check your computers security before you go and we have a little cleanup to do also:

Download Security Check by screen317 from HERE or HERE.

• Save it to your Desktop.
• Double click SecurityCheck.exe and follow the onscreen instructions inside of the black box.
• If you get Unsupported operating system. Aborting now, just reboot and try again.
• A Notepad document should open automatically called checkup.txt.
• Please Post the contents of that document.
• Do Not Attach It!!!

Follow-on comments

++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

I will study the information you have provided on the IP blocking issue when I am more awake, thanks for that.

 

I did investigate where the IP addresses originated and I discovered that they came from the Netherlands and China. The Netherlands has some interesting spamming history that I dug up in the process.

 

It is very possible that Malwarebytes is doing its job as required, I will investigate further in due course. Maybe the inability to log into Office 365 is coincidental, I will research that in due course as well. (FYI - while typing this I received another one of those IP blocks, this time starting with IP 80.).

 

Shout when ready as regards the residual cleaning, thanks for your patience.

 

[MrCharlie]

Out dated programs on the system are vulnerable to malware.
Please update or uninstall them:

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Java™ 6 Update 17 <-----please uninstall from your add/remove programs
Java version out of Date! <-------Download and install the latest version (Java™ 7 Update 45) from Here. Uncheck the box to install the Ask toolbar!!! and any other free "stuff".

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

A little clean up to do....

Please Uninstall ComboFix: (if you used it)

Press the Windows logo key + R to bring up the "run box"

Copy and paste next command in the field:

ComboFix /uninstall

Make sure there's a space between Combofix and /



Then hit enter.
This will uninstall Combofix, delete its related folders and files, hide file extensions, hide the system/hidden files and clears System Restore cache and create new Restore point

(If that doesn't work.....you can simply rename ComboFix.exe to Uninstall.exe and double click it to complete the uninstall or download and run the uninstaller)

---------------------------------

Please download OTC to your desktop. (This will clean up most of the tools and logs)
http://oldtimer.geekstogo.com/OTC.exe

Double-click OTC to run it. (Vista and up users, please right click on OTC and select "Run as an Administrator")
Click on the CleanUp! button and follow the prompts.
(If you get a warning from your firewall or other security programs regarding OTC attempting to contact the Internet, please allow the connection.)
You will be asked to reboot the machine to finish the Cleanup process, choose Yes.
After the reboot all the tools we used should be gone.
Note: Some more recently created tools may not yet be removed by OTC. Feel free to manually delete any tools it leaves behind.

Any other programs or logs you can manually delete. (right click.....Delete)
IE: RogueKiller.exe, RKreport.txt, RK_Quarantine folder, C:\FRST folder, FRST-OlderVersion folder, MBAR folder, etc....AdwCleaner > just run the program and click uninstall.

Note:
If you used FRST and can't delete the quarantine folder:
Download the fixlist.txt to the same folder as FRST.exe.
Run FRST.exe and click Fix only once and wait
That will delete the quarantine folder created by FRST.
The rest you can manually delete.

-------------------------------

Any questions...please post back.
If you think I've helped you, please leave a comment > click on my avatar picture > click Profile Feed.

Take a look at My Preventive Maintenance to avoid being infected again.
