Hello all!

I am having quite a difficult time getting this virus out of my system. I "think" its a wmi infection but I'm unsure. a registry entry in windows\current version\run keeps reinstalling itself and i dont know how. Below are a list of cleaners i have ran to see if i can fix the issue. 

1. malewarebytes (detects and quarantines it, but it returns within a day or so.... even with out a reboot it comes back)

2.Superantispyware

3. kaspersky TDSS killer 

4. rkill

5. eset nod 32 (default anti-virus) 

6. adwcleaner

7.hijackthis

8. MBAR

Hello brandonm121 and welcome to Malwarebytes,

Continue with the following:

If you do not have Malwarebytes installed do the following:

Download Malwarebytes version 3 from the following link:

https://www.malwarebytes.com/mwb-download/thankyou/

Double click on the installer and follow the prompts. If necessary select the Blue Help tab for video instructions....

When the install completes or Malwarebytes is already installed do the following:

Open Malwarebytes, select > "settings" > "protection tab"

Scroll down to "Scan Options" ensure Scan for Rootkits and Scan within Archives are both on....

Go back to "DashBoard" select the Blue "Scan Now" tab......

When the scan completes quarantine any found entries...

To get the log from Malwarebytes do the following:
 
  • Click on the Report tab > from main interface.
  • Double click on the Scan log which shows the Date and time of the scan just performed.
  • Click Export > From export you have two options:
    Copy to Clipboard - if seleted right click to your reply and select "Paste" log will be pasted to your reply
    Text file (*.txt) - if selected you will have to name the file and save to a place of choice, recommend "Desktop" then attach to reply

     
  • Please use "Copy to Clipboard, then Right click to your reply > select "Paste" that will copy the log to your reply…


Next,

Download AdwCleaner by Malwarebytes onto your Desktop.

Or from this Mirror
 
  • Right-click on AdwCleaner.exe and select user posted imageRun as Administrator (for Windows Vista, 7, 8, 8.1 and 10 users)
  • Accept the EULA (I accept), then click on Scan
  • Let the scan complete. Once it's done, make sure that every item listed in the different tabs is checked and click on the Clean button. This will kill all the active processes
  • Once the cleaning process is complete, AdwCleaner will ask to restart your computer, do it
  • After the restart, a log will open when logging in. Please copy/paste the content of that log in your next reply


Next,

Download Farbar Recovery Scan Tool and save it to your desktop.

Alternative download option: http://www.techspot.com/downloads/6731-farbar-recovery-scan-tool.html

Note: You need to run the version compatible with your system (32 bit or 64 bit). If you are not sure which version applies to your system download both of them and try to run them. Only one of them will run on your system, that will be the right version.

If your security alerts to FRST either, accept the alert or turn your security off to allow FRST to run. It is not malicious or infected in any way...

Be aware FRST must be run from an account with Administrator status...
 
  • Double-click to run it. When the tool opens click Yes to disclaimer.(Windows 8/10 users will be prompted about Windows SmartScreen protection - click More information and Run.)
  • Make sure Addition.txt is checkmarked under "Optional scans"
    user posted image
     
  • Press Scan button to run the tool....
  • It will make a log (FRST.txt) in the same directory the tool is run. Please copy and paste it to your reply.
  • The tool will also make a log named (Addition.txt) Please attach that log to your reply.


Let me see those logs in your reply...

Thank you,

Kevin....

I HAVE MAE A DISCOVERY! There are a set of services that change their name after every reboot. These are the source of the issue, but i cant remove them. I have tried sc delete as an admin in safe mode, also navigated to the services in the registry and deleted them, but they keep coming back. Here a few examples of the names. 

CDPUserSvc_23d6fd8b

ContactData_23d6fd8b

and a few others that follow the same naming structure. After reboot, the number tagged at the end changes to something else random.

Malwarebytes log was clean, FRST logs show no evidence of Malware or Infection.. Do you have a log from Malwarebytes showing what was removed..

the only thing removed is/was trojan Mirai virus located in HKlocalmachine\software\microsoft\currentcontrolset\run. a program masking itself as bgclients is the culprit. This has been reoccuring for a bit now, itll be back in a few days after removal.

Hiya brandonm121,

Thanks for that log, still no evidence of Malware or Infection or any potential loaders...  One policy is unusual, i assume you have set that up...?

HKLM\...\Policies\Explorer: [ShowSuperHidden] 1

Try a scan with Windows Defender Offline, use option 3 from the link below:

https://www.tenforums.com/tutorials/42305-windows-defender-offline-scan-windows-10-a.html

The link also shows how to retrieve the log..

Thanks,

Kevin..

I do not believe a server makes any difference if you are running windows 10...

Open search function next to start flag, type or copy/paste Virus and threat protection into the search box, select that from best match, in the new window select scan optiion in the new window scroll to and select Windows Defender Offline Scan then select scan now
