Trojan:Win32/FakeSpypro & Trojan:JS/FakeSpypro

[bludgard69]

Funny thing.I deleted 10G of retore points right after I contracted this thing.
Live and learn,once again.So it was pretty mutch manual labor on this one.
I've got the Take Ownership Of on right-click.Nothing worked.Not even run as admin.
Thank you for your suggestions.I'll look deeper into them shortly.

I think I have this whooped.But,as Confucious says,"We'll See".

First, take a deep breath, calm down. Start the computer in Safe Mode. Find a flash drive and another computer, or if you're confident it's not running in safe mode, download SUPER Antispyware. Secondly, a trojan on a friend's computer once disabled executables for me as well. Right clicking on them and picking "Run as Administrator" allowed me to run them though.

You have plenty of options to deal with this thing. The fact that you're removing it and it's coming back means it's hiding somewhere. You can try rolling back your system with system restore and see if that helps. Otherwise, I'd suggest deleting the restore points because it's usually where viruses like to hide.

Possible Hindsight

Maybe MSE already rid my system of these entries earlier in the game?I do know it-MSE- dealt with this in stages.Don't know exactly what happened,I will do more reseach on this,though.Thanks for timely respons.

Another Malicious File

This has been with me from the start.I renamed it to see if that would help.Nothing found it.I ran "kfsuiwvtssd" through WE Search,and found "kfsuiwvtssd.boo"(which is what I renamed it-Because it sounded scary).Scanned it with MSE,OK.Scanned it with MBAM,INFECTED.Removed.

We'll see how this progresses.

 

[bludgard69]

No recurrence.Everything seems to be running better than ever.Kind of spooky.:huh:

Just An Afterthought...

Hey,Product FRED,maybe by me deleting all restore points left this trojan no-where to hide?

Funny thing.I deleted 10G of retore points right after I contracted this thing.
Live and learn,once again.So it was pretty mutch manual labor on this one.
I've got the Take Ownership Of on right-click.Nothing worked.Not even run as admin.
Thank you for your suggestions.I'll look deeper into them shortly.

I think I have this whooped.But,as Confucious says,"We'll See".

First, take a deep breath, calm down. Start the computer in Safe Mode. Find a flash drive and another computer, or if you're confident it's not running in safe mode, download SUPER Antispyware. Secondly, a trojan on a friend's computer once disabled executables for me as well. Right clicking on them and picking "Run as Administrator" allowed me to run them though.

That's most likely it. I'm glad I could help.

If the only place the files were being found in a scan was System Restore, clearing SR would, of course, remove infected restore points. That said, please note that System Restore is not an endless repository and as new restore points are created, older points are cycled out. Thus, an infected restore point is only a threat if the computer is re stored to that point. However, clearing System Restore should only be done after the computer is clean. Having an infected restore point is better than none should an error be made in the clean-up process.

 

[bludgard69]

No Lurkers About...

This thing had roots all over.Registry,AppData,Temp Files......I am new at this,so needless to say I was a bit intimidated at first.

Yeah,I got infected first.Didn't know it.System was running fine.I thought I would do a little maintenance-hadn't done any in a few weeks...Restore was full-Deleted.Ran CCleaner.AV\AM.Auslogics Disk Defrag-with Optimize.Ran Disk Check.ScanNow.Every thing peachy.Restart.


BAM!You know the rest of the story...........

Thanks for responding.

MSE Finds Infected .Zip

Finally,MSE found this file.All I can say is that it got the jump on MBAM.


As a treat,MSE left me my cool icon and the rest of the folders content-PNG images of said trojan.


BE ONE

Hi,Jaxryley.

Will MBAM remove this if I let it run freely again.Will it find it?I dont have real time protection through MBAM.Is ther a safe way to manipulate this thing to be rid of every thread?
EDIT:MBAM runs since MSE got it quarentined.Just doesn't even find the .zip file pasted on my desktop.I just scanned it-the .zip file- with both MBAM and MSE,neither found it a threat.
Only Bitdefender online scanner found it.

I'LL GET RID OF THIS HOSTAGE TAKING PIECE OF S***!
GAME ON!:sa:

Let me get back to you guys.I dealt with this thing for 5 hours to get my system back.I need a little time.I apreciate your timely response.

Copy and paste taskmgr.exe from the system 32 folder to desktop and rename to Opera.exe. Now Taskmanager will start allowing to kill the rogue's process then get a scan going with Malwarebytes, updated first of course.

Or you can go to Malwarebytes Programs folder and rename mbam.exe to Opera.exe and Malwarebytes should start even if the exe killing rogue's process is active.

You can rename to Firefox.exe as well. In fact renaming most exes to Firefox or Opera should allow them to run with this rogue active.

Wooow, intense!
Glad you got rid of it.

 

[bludgard69]

Thanks,JayC2.
And welcome to 7 Forums!

It was pretty intense.I guess it could be a lot worse.

Taught me to be more concientious about my browsing,and also how I let others use my laptop.Live and learn.

Wooow, intense!
Glad you got rid of it.

Are you running as admin all the time? If so create a standard user and assign it as admin and downgrade your current user to standard. Use a strong password.

Hi,bigcitycat.

Thank you and I have since modified user accounts and parental controls.
