Scan shows Tojan.Emotet. User cannot open browsers


Recommended Posts

I have three computers (so far) with this same problem.  The browsers won't open.  One of the computers, gets a message from Anti-Exploit when he clicks on FireFox that Malwarebytes Anti-Exploit has blocked an exploit attempt.  Application: Mozilla Firefox.  Protection Layer:  Malicious Memory Protection.  Protection Technique:  Exploit code executing from Heap Memory blocked.   When he clicks on Internet Explorer, he gets the same message with the application being Internet Explorer.  When I log onto the same computer as another user (an administrator) I can open both browsers without a problem.

This didn't work:  Opened Anti-Exploit and went to Settings > Advanced Settings and on each tab, I clicked Default Settings.  

This didn't work:  Ran a full scan in Malwarebytes Anti-Malware and removed the Trojan.Emotet malware and rebooted the computer.

Windows is fully patched.  

As a test, I stopped Anti-Exploit on one computer and the browsers worked again for the regular user.  

I have attached FRST scan results.  I searched the results for the text in the Malwarebytes blog under "Identifying the infected machines" and none of the text was found.

 Please help.  Thanks.

Hello Kevin and thanks for replying,

I went to www.virustotal.com and selected c:\ProgramData\kMGISrp.exe and it displayed this on the details tab (attached).

The computer automatically rebooted and when it came back up C:\ProgramData\kMGISrp.exe  and   C:\ProgramData\nT16F2AOBNbX.exe were gone. I'm running another Malwarebytes scan now to see if they come back.
