I keep getting "blocked" from an Outbound website coming from opera.

[retrobow]

I am getting "Website blocked due to Malware" from the domain 77.111.246.47 every 2-3 minutes and I don't know why. I looked it up and it seems to be a high risk site, so I don't want to open it, but I don't know why my computer keeps trying to open in, and how to stop it. Someone please help.

[retrobow]

This started like 3 hours ago right after I downloaded the Bluestacks emulator, which I then deleted shortly after. That might have something to do with the issue, but I made sure to delete everything to do with bluestack from my pc.

Hello  @retrobow   and 

 

My name is MKDB and I will assist you.

 

 

Let's keep these principles as we proceed. Make sure to read the entire post below first.

• Please follow the steps in the given order and post back the log files.
• Please attach all log files into your post.
• Before we start, please make sure that you have an external backup, not connected to this system, of all private data.
• Only run the tools I guide you to. Please don't run any other scans, download, install or uninstall any programs while I'm working with you.
• As English is not my native language, please do not use slang or idioms. It may be hard for me to understand.
• If you do not respond within 4 days, your topic will be closed.
• Cracked or hacked or pirated programs are not only illegal, but also will make a computer a malware victim. Having such programs installed, is the easiest way to get infected. It is the leading cause of ransomware encryptions. It is at times also a big source of current trojan infections. If you are running any kin of illegal software on your system, please uninstall them now, before we start the cleaning procedure.

Sounds like the emulator bundles malware. This route of infection is typical.

 

Let's see what we can do.

 

 

• Please download the Malwarebytes Support Tool (MBST).
• Run MBST and accept license agreement.
• In the left navigation pane of MBST, click Advanced.
• In the Advanced Options, click Gather Logs. A status diagram displays the tool is Getting logs from your machine.
• A zip file named mbst-grab-results.zip will be saved to your desktop, please upload that file on your next reply.

 

[retrobow]

I clicked Gather logs, and when it finished it said that the mbst file was saved, but I can't find it on my pc, what folder would it have saved to, because it's not in downloads, desktop, or documents.

[retrobow]

Nevermind, I found it.

We will use FRST and ESET

 

 

1️⃣

We will use Farbar Recovery Scan Tool (FRST) to run a fix. FRST was downloaded together with MBST and should be located in your download folder: C:\Users\domin\Downloads\FRSTEnglish.exe

The fix may take some time, please be very patient and do not interfere.

 

• Please download the attached fixlist.txt file and save it to your download folder, which is C:\users\domin\Downloads\ in your case.
• You will find the file FRSTEnglish.exe (FRST) as well in this folder.

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

• Close all open programs and save your work.
• Run FRST.
• Press the Fix button only once and wait. Please be patient and do not interfere, even if FRST does not respond for some time. That's nothing to worry about.
• Please note: This Fix will remove all temporary files, empty recycle bin and will remove cookies and may result in some websites indicating they do not recognize your computer. It may be necessary to receive and apply a verification code.
• Please note: This step resets your Firewall settings and you may be asked later to grant permission for legitimate programs to pass through the Firewall. If you recognize the program, agree to the request.
• If the tool needs a restart, please make sure you let the system restart normally and let the tool complete its run after restart.
• FRST will create one log now (Fixlog.txt) in the same directory the tool is run. Please attach this logfile to your next reply.

 

 

2️⃣

Let me have you run a different scanner to double-check.

I would suggest a free scan with the ESET Online Scanner

Go to https://download.eset.com/com/eset/tools/online_scanner/latest/esetonlinescanner.exe

• It will start a download of "esetonlinescanner.exe".
• Save the file to your system, such as the Downloads folder, or else to the Desktop.
• Go to the saved file, and double click it to get it started. 
• When presented with the initial ESET options, click on "Computer Scan".
• Next, when prompted by Windows, allow it to start by clicking Yes.
• When prompted for scan type, Click on Full scan. 
• Look at & tick  ( select )   the radio selection "Enable ESET to detect and quarantine potentially unwanted applications"   and click on the Start scan button.
• Have patience.  The entire process may take an hour or more. There is an initial update download.
• There is a progress window display.
• You should ignore all prompts to get the ESET antivirus software program.  (e.g. their standard program). You do not need to buy or get or install anything else.
• When the scan is completed, if something was found, it will show a screen with the number of detected items.  If so, click the button marked “View detected results”.
• Click The blue “Save scan log” to save the log.
• If something was removed and you know it is a false finding, you may click on the blue ”Restore cleaned files”  (in blue, at the bottom).
• Press Continue when all done.  You should click to off the offer for “periodic scanning”.

Note: If you do need to do a File Restore from ESET please follow the directions below

Here is the fixlog and the eset didn't find any threats.

@retrobow

First, reboot your system.

Second, please run a fresh scan with FRST as well as SecurityCheck to check the results.

How is your machine running? Do you still get blocks from MBAM?

 

 

1️⃣

• Run FRST again.
• Do not change any settings.
• Press the Scan button.
• FRST will create two logs now (FRST.txt + Addition.txt) in the same directory the tool is run.
• Please attach these logfiles to your next reply.

 

 

2️⃣

I would like you to run a tool named SecurityCheck to inquire about the current security update status of some applications.

• Download SecurityCheck by glax24: https://tools.safezone.cc/glax24/SecurityCheck/SecurityCheck.exe
• If Microsoft SmartScreen blocks the download, click through to save the file
• This tool is safe.   Smartscreen is overly sensitive.
• If SmartScreen blocks the file from running click on More info and Run anyway
• Right-click  with your mouse on the Securitycheck.exe  and select "Run as administrator"  and reply YES to allow to run & go forward
• Wait for the scan to finish. It will open a text file named SecurityCheck.txt Close the file.  Attach it with your next reply.
• You can find this file in a folder called SecurityCheck, C:\SecurityCheck\SecurityCheck.txt

I have the malwarebytes notifications off, and I just checked, and I haven't gotten a block since 1 A.M. Yesterday, which I think was when I used FRST. Does that mean the malware is gone?

@retrobow

There is no active malware visible in the newest logfiles.

The malware tried to create a task, but was blocked by MBAM. We were able to delete it with the FRST fix.
