Hello,
I've got a recent problem going with my xp system. At random moments, my computer locks up and I have to reboot. At the time of the initial episode, I had Bit Defender running.
When I try to scan the computer using BD or Spybot S&D, the computer locks up again during the scan. I have tried to scan from Safe Mode and have also downloaded and tried the following:
Kepersky
Avira
Uniblu Registry Booster 2
MalwareBytes
Spybot S&D
ATF Cleaner
AVG Antivirus
Norton Antivirus
ALL of the above, when running in scan mode, lock up the computer. I have tried everything and don't know what else to try. I currently have the AVIRA loaded as my resident antivirus.
Is there anyone out there that can help me resolve this problem? I think it is in my registry, but not sure. The Malwarbytes got a few bad files out as did Avira, but the problem remains.
I appreciate in advance any information that may help me rid my computer of this bug.
Thanks

to start off; if you now have Avira loaded as your resident antivirus program , may one ask how you uninstalled each of the other antivirus programs ,and did you EVER have more than ONE antivirus program installed at any time?

Apr 24 2008, 04:31 PM
I have had AVG and Avira running simultaneously, otherwise just the Avira. I also have Spybot S&D running as resident along with WinPatrol. Not good?
thanks

Forgot..I removed the previous antivirus via the control panel options for install/uninstalling programs.

Apr 24 2008, 04:41 PM
you mention Norton? did you use the Norton removal tool on it ?
http://service1.symantec.com/SUPPORT/tsgen...005033108162039using the control panel add/remove is not sufficient to remove Norton completely
of interest, how far BACK does your system restore go?
if you have more than ONE installed av at any time it it tantamount to having NONE as those that ARE on board will vyw for computer supremicy and NOT search for viruses

Apr 24 2008, 04:49 PM
Yes, used the Norton removal tool, which rid me of the LiveUpdate business. Norton really is a blimp of a program and overtakes everything.
Point taken with the multiple AV programs. For now it's just one. Not sure if it conflicts with the Uniblue Registry Booster 2 that is loaded.
How can you see how far back the system restore goes? I've had a look around and can't find this info. Sorry for the inexpertise...

no worries
if it is where it should be.......... go to start/programs/system restore/and open the section; have a nosey and look around rummage in there
this guide on here
http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/tutorials/tutorial56.htmlgives you pictures of what you can expect to find
try that rummage?

Thanks ruby1,
I will have a look at the tutorial.
I have found the system restore under the accessories/system utilities menu. It looks like the computer automatically set a restart point every day for the last few months.
I'll read the tutorial and see what I can do. But will resetting the system eliminate malware or trojans?
Many thanks,

it might help you to turn it back to before you had the clutter of programs on it to enable you to do some effective scans; if it will let you roll back,then , when you know exactly what appropriate protection programs you do have on there, you can see how the computer runs, do some basic housekeeping such as a defrag , run some basic scans and see if anything gets flagged up ; you will then still have system restore turned on as your safety net if any scans go wrong
you may ultimately need to turn Restore off to flush any malaware out OF the System restore
but that is not yet
see if it will let you roll back to a known clean and not- too- cluttered- with- extra- programs point?

run chkdsk and a defrag, sometimes the easiest solutions are best. Also do some online av scanning.

OK, I restored to approxamately one month ago (March 31). This was a time where I am sure there was no problems with the computer as far as lock-ups are concerned, and no excess of AV programs to add to the conflict. Just to add, I defragged the hd once a week, always regularly, before the problems started.
My first attempt to run Bit Defender AV scan after the computer rebooted, you guessed it...locked up.
I have now nullified the system restore, returning back to yesterday's date.
I am trying to understand the method of "turning restore off" to flush out the malware/bad files in the system. If I turn if OFF, then back ON, then I won't have a previous restore point to go to, correct?
Can someone give a little clarification as to the EXACT procedure for doing this so that I can retry to restore to a previous era without doing damage to the system? Not having this experience, I a hesitant to try things myself for lack of knowledge.
Thanks again for your kind help.

some nasties have a habit of 'sitting ' in the System Restore' section so that, even if you maybe run a scan and appear to be 'clean' , when you reboot the computer the horrid things are back again,
at present we know you do have system restore enabled and working, which is good
as you have previously had avg 7.5 antivirus program on there(?) why not try it again?
suggest remove the Bit defender , reboot and install avgantivirus;
http://www.filehippo.com/download_avg_antivirus/4029/fully update the definitions, reboot your computer into safe mode and do a full system scan
see if
it will let you run a system scan without locking up?
also, may one ask, as you are on XP have you service pack 2 installed and do you have any problems getting updates from the microsoft windows update site?

Apr 26 2008, 07:50 AM
Hello.. back again,
I downloaded AVG 8.0 with updated definitions, rebooted into Safe Mode and scanned. The AVG program only gave me the option to scan with a command line, which it did automatically. It found a few bad files, namely "fsmgmt.dll" aka Win32/Cryptexe.A and winlogon.exe, described both as "virus". It also found various Adware files and "adware.titanshieldantispyware", lots of that
After scanning it rebooted automatically to Windows standard mode. I looked in the AVG vault for these bad files, but they were not there. Not sure if the reboot was an automatic decision of AVG, or the bug that I have.
I subsequently scanned using AVG in standard mode and the first scan revealed these same viruses, but the computer locked up at about 2 minutes into the scan, so I guess that they have not been cleared from the system. They are not currently in the quarantine folder.
I tried running the AVG scan again, this time the computer rebooted automatically about 10 seconds into the scan. Didn't like that much.
Any ideas??
continued thanks...d

Apr 26 2008, 08:26 AM
please confirm that at this point in time you only have the ONE antivirus program installed which is the AVG?
I for one am still not convinced you DO have only ONE antivirus program on board; if you DO have more than one you WILL have problems
I linked you to taking on board avg 7.5 so not sure why you chose the newer 8.0 version?
if the computer will let you can you do a scan with superantispyware?
http://www.superantispyware.com/superantis...efreevspro.htmlits free exe is
http://www.superantispyware.com/downloadfi...ANTISPYWAREFREE you will need to install it, fully update the definitions and reboot the computer ; then run the program with the computer OFF line from the desktop icon and get a full computer scan done; when completed open the program and go to prefernces/statistics,logs ; can you highlight the report you should find and copy and paste it here please for the experts to examine ?

Apr 26 2008, 08:49 AM
Hi ruby1,
Yes, I only have one antivirus, AVG 8.0. I downloaded it from the page that you linked to. I just assumed that the 8.0 would be better as it is a later (complete) version. Has this somehow compromised the possibility to clean my computer out? Just wondering why 7.5 would be recommended over 8.0...sorry for that error.
I will download Superantispyware and try it...
back in a minute.
thanks,

another question: do I need to run Superantispyware in Safe Mode?
dmcrisp
Apr 26 2008, 09:18 AM
Hello again,
I installed Superantispyware and updated defs, rebooted, and scanned.
Scanned ok the Memory, 0 bad files
Scanned the Registry...locked up twice.
Both times the scan ends on: C\windows\current version\internet settings\zonemap\xxxxxxx, where xxxxx is some random website address (note: when i ran SASW a few days ago, the website location was nonexistent). The number of scanned files is the same 6477, but the ending filename (xxxxx) changes. First it was corroiere.it, next antivir2007.com. I have never visited these sites and cannot find these files on my hd.
Needless to say the scan did not finish and I have no report log.
thanks,
d

Hello again,
Tried Panda Active 2.0, McAfee, Onecare.live, Prevxcsi, F-Secure...all lock up and/or reboot the computer during the scan. Only run one program at a time and uninstall afterwards as to not conflict with other AV programs.
I'm at a loss...can someone please help??
Thanks,

am almost going to suggest you DO do a log for the team to check over to see if anything IS amiss
BUT
have you yet run a disc defragment
from
http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/forums/topic44690.htmlQUOTE
For a shortcut to the Disk Defragmenter,click on My Computer from the Start menu,right click on your hard drive,and choose Properties.
Then click the Tools Tab and click the Defragment Now button.
When the window appears,click the Analyze button.If it says your hard drive does not need defraging,click the Close button.
If it says you should defragment,click the Defragment button.
It does it's job in the background,sometimes finishing in a few minutes,other times a few hours. When it's done,your computer should run more quickly when opening and closing files.
????
to state the hopefully obvious this is run OFF line and with
nothing else being asked of the computer

Apr 28 2008, 08:15 AM
Hi,
Yes, I do regulare defrag and cleanups, almost one every two weeks. The recent analysis said that the drive C required NO defragmentation. I did it anyway after a SCANDISK/CHKDISK , all offline with no other programs or AV running.
Still having the same problems, now the computer is rebooting more frequently.
Not sure what a log is or how it's done, but I'm about to give up in despair. I don't know what else to do...
?
thanks,

http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/startups/gwum.exe-1893.htmlhere's just one example of some optional programs that are running that could be shut down
you have 2 antivirus programs running at the same time, this is a very bad thing!
windows xp needs no ram management programs, it's very good without them, using another program will only cause problems

Thanks for the advice. I rid my computer of the RAM things. They were loaded on the computer from the beginning. Anything to clear out the clutter is good, I guess.
As soon as I deleted these two programs as well as the BitDefender exe files that were running at startup, I rebooted. The computer locked up at the desktop. Subsequent reboot let to four "auto-reboots" and another lockup. I let the computer sit and cool off (as myself) for an hour.
Restarted okay this time. Here is the new log file...anything need reworking? Was the BitDefender the 2nd antivirus program that you were referencing? I think I got it off, but not sure.
thanks for the ongoing advice.
best,
darren

are you sure you have removed the Bit defender av?
can you please fully update , reboot and rerun a full system scan off line and in safe mode with the superantispyware;
also fully update the avg antivirus program; reboot and also run a full system scan
see if they report back as clear?
and, if I noted in the above correctly I think you have the spybot's tea -timer activated?

Hi again,
I DO believe that I've removed BitDefender successfully..do you see something that would indicate otherwise? I can't find any program assosciations but I'm not that familiar with the removal process other than by means of the control panel and startup programs.
I loaded the Superantispyware, updated, and scanned from Safe Mode. It locked up after about 6400 files checked in the Registry. Tried again, same result. The Memory was ok. This (and the other scanners) always lockup when scanning the registry.
Updated AVG, ran from Safe Mode (it scans only in DOS mode when in Safe Mode). It found some adware which I previously wrote about. I am not sure if it puts these in the vault, or what it does with the results. It took about an 1.5 hrs to run, so I didn't see the finished results, but the computer automatically rebooted and was locked up on the desktop. I don't think that this was the typical AVG procedure, but I don't know as I've never finished a complete scan.
The TeaTimer is activated. Should this be turned off. I understand that it is necessary with Spybot S&D. Should I eliminate the whole program from the computer while trying to resolve this.
Off for a stiff drink. thanks for sticking with me...
ciao,
dmc

teatimer should always be disabled when doing a scan and/or fix, even when scanning in safe mode the antimalware program may need to reboot and kill something at load up, if teatimer's trying to load and deny that change all hell breaks loose, I have seen a computer almost totally hosed this way.
spybot is a good program and very usefull, letting teatimer run is optional, teatimer is a powerful tool and like a loaded gun best left alone if you don't know what you are doing
dmcrisp
Apr 29 2008, 08:39 AM
Hmm..good information to have. I've disabled TeaTimer and rebooted. Tried to run SuperAntispyware in Safe Mode.
I just did a registry scan, as this is where things go bad, and they did again...locked up during the scan. I tried to reboot and then Windows did an "autoreboot" about 6 times. I just left the computer off for about 10 minutes.
I have notices that when scanning with Superantispyware, it always blocks up at the same point:
HKLM\SOFTWARE\MICROSOFT\Windows\CurrentVersion\Internet Settings\ZoneMap\Domains\XXXXXXX
xxx is some website..sometimes bogus, sometimes real. Some of the web addresses: corroiere.it, avast-downloads.com, antivir2007.com. etc...I hope this may be a clue.
I get the feeling that the computer is slowly dying. It seems that when it starts to act funny, it needs a cooling off period, like 10-15 minutes. Could this be that the system is slowly frying?
thanks again,

that sounds like 2 different problems, one I have a lot of experience with, overheating? make sure the inside of the computer is clean, give it lots of cool fresh air, make sure the cpu is adequately cooled
the other problem sounds like a remnant of a malware infection maybe with some registry corruption?

those who have the required 'permissions ' to post in this section on here
http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/forums/forum22.htmlare the 'specialist team' ,one of whom will check over the log and tell you IF your problem IS malware related or maybe eliminate THAT factor from the equation
if you wish ; go ahead and post a log IN that section ; if you DO then the mods will , as per forum protocol, lock THIS thread until you are known to be malware free
BUT please do also be aware that you may NOT get a reply for a few days
maybe others will disagree but I think it is, at this point, your best way forward to try to solve this?

this issue was not resolved, it's best to eliminate all other possibilites first
cleaning out the inside of your case was not addressed
I
concur with ruby that an expert needs to look at a hjt or dss log and see if they can find something that's been hiding from the tools used here
but they won't fix an overheating computer or a poorly maintained one, that's not what they are trained to do

Hello dmcrisp,
Now that you have posted your HJT log here:
http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/forums/topic144552.html you should NOT make further changes to your computer (install/uninstall programs, use special fix tools, delete files, edit the registry, etc) unless advised by a HJT Team member, nor should you continue to ask for help elsewhere. Doing so can result in system changes which may not show in the log you already posted. Further, any modifications you make on your own may cause confusion for the helper assisting you and could complicate the malware removal process which would extend the time it takes to clean your computer.
From this point on
the HJT Team should be the only members that you take advice from, until they have verified your log as clean.Please be patient. It may take a while to get a response because the HJT Team members are EXTREMELY busy working logs posted before yours. They are volunteers who will help you out as soon as possible. Once you have made your post and are waiting, please DO NOT make another reply until it has been responded to by a member of the HJT Team. Generally the staff checks the forum for postings that have 0 replies as this makes it easier for them to identify those who have not been helped. If you post another response there will be 1 reply. A team member, looking for a new log to work may assume another HJT Team member is already assisting you and not open the thread to respond.If after
5 days you still have received no response, then post a link to your HJT log in the thread titled "
Haven't Had A Reply In Five Days?".
To avoid confusion, I am closing this topic. Good luck with your log.
