Comcast Constant Guard Bot message, please help.

[happyjay]

Hello,

 

I need your kind help with this warning message from Comcast Constand Guard. It showed 1 Bot Detected. Bot Name "TDSS-TDL_Generic", Type "Multi-Purpose". I have both "Malwarebytes Premium" and "symantec endpoint protection" enabled on my PC, and no warning message from any of them. The system is functioning fine and scans from above antivirus were clean too. I have no idea what to do next, can you please guide me to detect and remove potential rookit from my PC?

 

Thanks!

 

Jay

Thanks for your help. I attached these three log/report files for you to review. Please let me know what is the next step.

FRST.txt

Addition.txt

RKreport_SCN_09112014_072911.log

[kevinf80]

Download attached fixlist.txt file and save it to the Desktop, or the folder you saved FRST into.

NOTE. It's important that both FRST and fixlist.txt are in the same location or the fix will not work.

 

Run FRST and press the Fix button just once and wait.

The tool will make a log on the Desktop (Fixlog.txt) or the folder it was ran from. Please post it to your reply.

 

Next,

 

Open Malwarebytes Anti-Malware, from the Dashboard please Check for Updates by clicking the Update Now... link

When the update completes select > Settings > Detection and Protection > Enable Scan for rootkit and Under Non Malware Protection set both PUP and PUM to Treat detections as malware.

 

 

Click on the SCAN button and run a Threat Scan with Malwarebytes Anti-Malware by clicking the Scan Now>> button.

 

When the scan is complete, if there have been detections, click Apply Actions to allow MBAM to clean what was detected.

 

 

In most cases, a restart will be required.

 

 

Wait for the prompt to restart the computer to appear, then click on Yes.

 

 

Once completed please click on the History > Application Logs and find your scan log and open it and then click on the "copy to clipboard" button and post back the results on your next reply.

Next,

 

Please download Junkware Removal Tool to your desktop.

• 
  

Shut down your protection software now to avoid potential conflicts. (re-enable when done)
Run the tool by double-clicking it. If you are using Windows Vista, 7, or 8; instead of double-clicking, right-mouse click JRT.exe and select "Run as Administrator".
The tool will open and start scanning your system.
Please be patient as this can take a while to complete depending on your system's specifications.
On completion, a log (JRT.txt) is saved to your desktop and will automatically open.

fixlist.txt

[happyjay]

Thank you, I will run as your suggested this evening. Another quick question, in your fixlist file I found mobikey information. mobikey is a usb key for me to work from home, will the fix disable the ablility to use it?

[kevinf80]

The entries I have listed for removal (mountpoints2) are registry entries that store data and autorun actions for USB devices, such removals will not disrupt regulation of your system but will safegauard against possible malware/infection using such entries to gain unwarranted access.

[happyjay]

Thank you, I've finished all the fixes and scans you suggested.

We need to run an online AV scan to ensure there are no remnants of any infection left on your system that may have been missed. This scan is very thorough and well worth running, it can take several hours please be patient and let it complete:

 

Run Eset Online Scanner

 

**Note** You will need to use Internet explorer for this scan - Vista and Windows 7/8 right click on IE shortcut and run as admin

 

Go to Eset web page http://www.eset.com/us/online-scanner/ to run an online scan from ESET.

 

• 
  

Turn off the real time scanner of any existing antivirus program while performing the online scan
click on the Run ESET Online Scanner button
Tick the box next to YES, I accept the Terms of Use.
Click Start
When asked, allow the add/on to be installed
Click Start
Make sure that the option "Remove found threats"  is UNticked
Click on Advanced Settings, ensure the options
Scan for potentially unwanted applications, Scan for potentially unsafe applications, and Enable Anti-Stealth Technology are ticked.
Click Scan
wait for the virus definitions to be downloaded
Wait for the scan to finish

 

When the scan is complete

 

• 
  

If no threats were found
put a checkmark in "Uninstall application on close"
close program
report to me that nothing was found

 

If threats were found

 

• 
  

click on "list of threats found"
click on "export to text file" and save it as ESET SCAN and save to the desktop
Click on back
put a checkmark in "Uninstall application on close"
click on finish

 

close program

 

Copy and paste the report in next reply. Also let me know if you have any remaining issues or concerns..

 

Thanks,

 

Kevin.....

It found one thread in my download folder. That file I downloaded from the their official site, could it contain virus? Of course, I can delte it immediately.

ESET_Scan.txt

[kevinf80]

Yes please, delete that entry found by ESET.

 

Next,

 

Download "Delfix by Xplode" and save it to your desktop.

 

Or use the following if first link is down:

 

"Delfix link mirror"

 

Double Click to start the program. If you are using Vista or higher, please right-click and choose run as administrator

 

Make Sure the following items are checked:

 

• 
  

    Activate UAC
    Remove disinfection tools
    Create registry backup
    Purge System Restore
    Reset system settings

 

Now click on "Run" and wait patiently until the tool has completed.

 

The tool will create a log when it has completed. We don't need you to post this.

 

Part of the routine will be to create a registry back up with ERUNT,  the back up will be created here:

 

C:\Windows\ERUNT

 

When all is known to be well with your system you can delete that back up folder if you consider it as not needed...

 

If no remaining issues or concerns are we ok to close out.....
