Antivirus 2010

badderek02 · September 11, 2010

Hi,

I was infected with "Antivirus 2010" so I ran Malware Bytes which located and cleaned the threat, supposedly. It told me to restart the computer in order to finish cleaning the threat, however whenever I restarted the computer I would rescan with Malware Bytes and "Antivirus 2010" would show up in the same path, "C:\WINDOWS\system32\us?rinit.exe". I ran Symantec AV and it would say I had no threats while Malware Bytes would find "Antivirus 2010" each time. I tried cleaning it in safemode also and everytime MB would find the threat while Symantec wouldn't. I actually repeated this process several times; run MB, restart, safemode run MB, restart, regular run MB, restart, safemode run MB... with running Symantec several times inbetween over the course of several days.

After some trial and error I finally went to the folder and id the "Antivirus 2010" executable (usrinit.exe) and manually deleted it. Once I did that MB no longer found any threats.

My questions are these:

1) Why did MB say the threat was "quarantined and deleted" but kept locating it after every reboot?

2) Is my computer safe now that I manually deleted the executable? Meaning did I make anything unstable. It seems to be running ok but it ran like this before I deleted the .exe.

I also ran Hi-Jack This and this is what came up. Can anyone help me with my 2 questions and decipher my HJT log?

Thanks in advance for any and all help. It is much appreciated!

How does the log look? Is there anything nefarious I should be concerned about?

I haven't experienced any problems after I dragged the usrinit.exe program into the trash. I just wanted to make sure my computer was clean of any spyware or viruses that Norton or Malware Bytes might have missed.

I will get to this latest fix as soon as I get home. Thanks.

I would like to see what Kaspersky brings.

badderek02 · September 16, 2010

Hi JSntgRv,

This is what the ComboFix said after I added those registry changes. I will get to the Kapersky later on.

Can you explain to me what these steps are? I'm curious to know what these logs mean and when I look at them I think I am reading hyroglyphics.

Thanks for your help.
