Pop Up Windows !! and Can't get rid of MS Juan in HKEY Local Machine !


Recommended Posts

HI everyone! I was looking in Google for ways to get rid of MS Juan that is located in HKEY_Local_Machine/Software/Microsoft/MSJuan and I found this amazing website so i decided to register. When I delete MSJuan it will appear again. I'm looking for an answer because I dont want to format my PC again. I will post the scan log here. I scan with Ad-Ware 2008 Pro and I removed all the threats but It did not get rid of MSJUAN and the advertising things.

This are the logs of the 3 programs .. It took me awhile to scan but I am finally done with that...I am here to follow more of your instructions thanks

I'm currently running the Panda scan on my system to see what the end report looks like. Yours is nothing like the scan reports used to look like.

However, there are some items of concern.

1. G:\Einer Hardrive In Here\HardDrive\Programas...ohol 120 keymaker.rar[keymaker.exe]

1. G:\Einer Hardrive In Here\HardDrive\Programas...BS Player Pro v2.20.949\KeyGen.exe

Key gens are from illegal software. We don't deal with that here legal or we quit. Illegal software is also a prime source of infection. What are the key gens for? Are you willing to uninstall the software associated?

I need you to please send these files to be analyzed:

C:\WINDOWS\system32\upuhnjnt.dll

C:\WINDOWS\system32\iulzft.dll

C:\WINDOWS\system32\iulzft.dll

Create a folder you name einzerox copy the files into that folder. Right click on it and choose, send to, zipped folder. Now please upload it to here http://uploads.malwarebytes.org/

Note: If the files are larger than 2MB each or combined you will need to send them separately. In this case name them einzerox1 ... einzerox2 and so on.

Run HJT again in scan only mode and put a check next to these items and click fix.

Hi thanks for the message. You said that my panda log looks different well it look different because I just copy it from the web I did not know where was the log file but i found it later. I am going to post it in here. Also about the keygens I deleted them so they are not in my system anymore. I sent you the files it said that was succesfully uploaded so I dont know if you get them I hope you have them or you can get it from here.

OK I need the HJT log always after the MBAM log.

O4 - HKCU\..\Run: [ares] "C:\Program Files\Ares\Ares.exe" -h <===== Ares is a P2P program and a huge risk. Most of the stuff your going to download with it is copyright protected and should be paid for. Getting it this way is illegal and can cost you more than an infected PC.

Remove these lines with HJT

Looks like Java is damaged or didn't install?

I'm waiting on word of the files for further instruction.

Oh ok sorry about that..I will do that for you. I am going to delete ares even though I used just to download music. Do you want me to uninstall Java and re-install it again? I also have another question for you. In the registry Editor there is this key called " MS Tracking System" which I think is not a Windows Keys. Do you think it belongs to the MSJuan Malware?

:) I know you use Ares to download music. But that music is not out there for free in most cases. It's stealing. I still haven't got to chat with Bruce. You are 3 definition versions behind on MBAM. This program updates often 4 times a day. You must update it every time you scan. I would need to see the entire reg key to give any sort of answer, but messing in the registry is so very risky. You can totally destroy the system.

Ok. I updated Malwarebyte to Database 930 and I scanned it and It did not reconize any threat. I will post a picture of the reg key. I have not do anything with that reg key. Thats why I told you.

Here is a pic of the Reg Key

Where is it? There are 4 distinct areas in the registry directory. Where is this key. What do you know about Mr. Enigma? MBAM came out with a new version too. Now 1.20.

The reg key is found in Hkey_Local_Machine/Software/Microsoft/MSTrackingSystem. I did some research about Mr.Enigma and this is what I found.

This isnt really an answer i just wanted to kno if when u delete it out of registry it comes back as MS Juan again but the next time it has sub folders....just wondering if u have the same problem as me....

Hi...well right now MSJuan is totally gone .. but you can't apply the same procedures of this threat to you computer because is not the same. Post a new topic and somebody will help you. Right now Im not finish with this. I am still getting help.

:) O4 - HKCU\..\Run: [ares] "C:\Program Files\Ares\Ares.exe" -h <===== Why is this back?

Do you realize using this software will almost guarantee infection again? Downloading music without paying for it is stealing and illegal. I already gave you one chance, the majority of help forums see a P2P program and your thread gets closed, end of story. They will not help someone involved in illegal activities and known behavior to cause infection. Malwarebytes does not condone this activity either and we will not continue to help someone obviously involved in illegal activity. Furthermore, your IP number and user name will go on a watch list and you won't get help here again either.

These files below all indicate something missing from the system. Java and SiteHound are damaged in some way.

Your log looks clean. We need to now reset a clean System Restore point. If you don't and you need to use System Restore you will reinfect yourself. Go to Start>Control Panel>System. Click on the System Restore tab and put a check in Turn off System Restore. Then click OK.

Now go to Start>Help and Support > Undo Changes to Your System or System Restore depending on the make of your PC. Click on what ever will open the System Restore box. You will see two options, Choose Create a System Restore Point. Give it a name like Clean Restore Point and today's date. Now if you need to use it you have it.

Many of these infections can be avoided with an added layer of prevention. All recommended programs are free and easy on system resources. You should install them as part of your protection arsenal. Keep MBAM and Spybot Search & Destroy and always immunize SBS&D when you update. You will also need at least one other scanning program Asquared or SuperAntiSpyware are good and there are several other excellent programs with free and paid versions. Read the overviews of what each program below does so you have an understanding of their importance and how to use.

A firewall and antivirus are also essential. The Windows firewall in XP is not sufficient.

Preform Windows Updates monthly on the second Tuesday or use automatic updates, and use your scanners weekly at the least. Always update before you scan.

Keep other software known for vulnerabilities updated also. Use the Secunia Inspector free scan to identify risks in outdated versions.

SpywareBlaster from Javacool Software

WinPatrol by BillPStudios

SiteHound by FireTrust

RogueRemover

hpHosts

The windows firewall is not sufficient to protect. It doesn't monitor outgoing traffic and this is a must. I use and recommend Online Armor Free

Also the full protection of MBAM is offered at a very low price. Give it a trial using the link in my signature.

Since this issue is resolved I will close the thread to prevent others from posting into it. If you need assistance please start your own topic and someone will be happy to assist you.

The fixes and advice in this thread are for this machine only. Do not apply to your machine. Please start a thread of your own and someone will be happy to help you.
