When posting your problem, do not run and post a ComboFix log. ComboFix is a tool that should only be run under the supervision of someone who has been trained in its use. Using it on your own can cause problems with your computer. Any posts containing CF Logs will be ignored.

To receive help, you should instead provide a detailed description of your problem, detailed word-for-word error messages that you are receiving, screenshots of strange behaviour, and your operating system. This information is much more useful to our helpers than a ComboFix log.

Can you please post the logs from all the scans you have done minus the HiJackthis?


I didn't run HJT. NONE of the programs I used caught that virus but Stinger, which I have only a .jpg. I didn't see the save this file button until some time later when it was too late. But if you really want to see them:

Stinger I can't C&P. As you can see I ran Avira first and MBAM second and Avira didn't find anything. I ran SuperAntiSpyware but for the life of me I can't figure why the dates of the logs stop at 4-29-2011.

Hello, Trend Micro has been known to ignore submissions from users not running their products. However, in informal tests, selecting HouseCall (their online, free scanner) got a detection added, although in most cases no notification of the detection was received, and in some cases the submission was simply ignored.

Since It was Stinger they may look. I believe you saw it.
I would add be p;eased it is gone.

These are what I found.

I was going to post that support page in my last post but I thought you would be insulted! LOL I thought you would come back with something like: I know that! I can be such a paranoid woman sometimes!

You can't imagine how happy I am to see it gone. The one thing I have gotten out of fixing these three machines is just more knowledge to store in my head. Every time there is something that comes up that I am either clueless about or only know a little about, I research, come into techie forums and read or ask. That is actually the way I learned all that I do know. Last week it was rootkit attached to the MBR in a machine, this week, Devcon.

You guys are the best!

I forgot to add: Don't pay any attention to the paths in the first two boxes. I took the screen shot awhile after it found this so that up on top was just during the rest of the scan.

ImageShack. I was about to close that site out and WHAM!! FF shut down and TWO sites were brought up, one of them was one I recognized from the Win7 machine when I first got it, called WeeklyContest. The other one I shut down very quick. Seems I best do another scan. This should be very interesting.

Answering my own post. All was well with the computer. I don't know why that happened but in my attempts to replicate it, nothing and the scans showed nothing.

I am now at home with my computer. I run XP Pro SP3 on a Mac Mini (MacOs on the other partition) so I looked for Devcon on it. Nothing. I have a 'test' desk top and put in a hard drive with Win 2000 Pro. Wasn't there either. So, I am at a loss. I hope nothing ever happens to my MM. I can open a laptop and a desktop and a tower and know what I am doing. I haven't even opened this one!!

And since I am a back up queen, it wouldn't be data I worry about. HDD failure or something else. But this isn't the forum for that. Anyhow, what did you think of the Stinger file?

Jann (and I think for now we can put this topic to rest, eh?)

The scans showed that you are clean, so if your computer has no issues then more then likely the system is clean. If you have more issues please do not hesitate in reporting.

My work schedule is as follows: Mon and Tues 1800 to 0600, Friday - Sunday 1800EST to 0600, and Wednesday to Thursday 1800est to 0600. So if I do not respond right away I am at work.
