hi, help with hddlagi.dll please

[Melody.]

I am not sure if this the appropriate forum to post. If not, then I'm sorry.

Today I got an error message when started up, so I scan my computer and it found hddlagi.dll trojan horse and it showed about moved to virus vault. I thought the trojan horse is already gone but when I restarted my computer it still gave an error message about the same one. I re-scanned it twice but the scanner found nothing (still get error message when started up).

I'm new to this, is it already removed? Please help, thank you!!

ps. I looked in the log, there was no log about it. Please help.

**Note: If you need more detailed information, please visit the web page of ComboFix in BleepingComputer. **

Please note that these fixes are not instantaneous. Most infections require more than one round to properly eradicate.

Stay with me until given the 'all clear' even if symptoms diminish. Lack of symptoms does not always mean the job is complete.

Kindly follow my instructions and please do no fixing on your own or running of scanners unless requested by me or another helper.

Please download ComboFix from

Here or Here to your Desktop.

**Note: In the event you already have Combofix, this is a new version that I need you to download. It is important that it is saved and renamed following this process directly to your desktop**

1. If you are using Firefox, make sure that your download settings are as follows:
   
   • Open Tools -> Options -> Main tab
     
   • Set to Always ask me where to Save the files.
     

[*]During the download, rename Combofix to Combo-Fix as follows:

[*]It is important you rename Combofix during the download, but not after.

[*]Please do not rename Combofix to other names, but only to the one indicated.

[*]Close any open browsers.

[*]Close/disable all anti virus and anti malware programs so they do not interfere with the running of ComboFix.

-----------------------------------------------------------

• Very Important! Temporarily disable your anti-virus, script blocking and any anti-malware real-time protection before performing a scan. They can interfere with ComboFix or remove some of its embedded files which may cause unpredictable results.
  
• Click on this link to see a list of programs that should be disabled. The list is not all inclusive. If yours is not listed and you don't know how to disable it, please ask.
  

  -----------------------------------------------------------

  
  

• Close any open browsers.
  
• WARNING: Combofix will disconnect your machine from the Internet as soon as it starts
  
• Please do not attempt to re-connect your machine back to the Internet until Combofix has completely finished.
  
• If there is no internet connection after running Combofix, then restart your computer to restore back your connection.
  

-----------------------------------------------------------

[*]Double click on combo-Fix.exe & follow the prompts.

[*]When finished, it will produce a report for you.

[*]Please post the C:\Combo-Fix.txt for further review.

**Note: Do not mouseclick combo-fix's window while it's running. That may cause it to stall**

I downloaded the Combofix and followed the step to temporary disabled the antivirus; however, the Combofix said that I have to uninstalled the antivirus in order for it to run even though I disabled it. Should I uninstall it?

[Maniac]

Temporarily, but yes please.

[Melody.]

Omg, I did the scan and everything and restarted my computer again, there was no more annoying hdlagi error!!! One more thing, is it okay to run the combofix to scan on the regular basis? Thank you so so much. You are a genius!! THANK YOU!!!

ps. I did rename to Combo-Fix before download but the text document is not Combo-Fix.txt

ComboFix.txt

[Maniac]

Awesome!

Please go and manually delete this one:

c:\documents and settings\P a m m y\Application Data\4717.bat

Let me know how are things now.
