I need some help in trying to determine why a registry entry keeps getting changed after reboot. This is a POS system that speaks to other servers for polling sales and thought the internet is up and I can browse, It is still being rejected by the servers I think because of an entry in the registry. HKEY_USER\.DEFAULT\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Internet Settings
ProxyEnable with value of 1
ProxyServer http=127.0.0.1:54970
Capture.PNG (71.67K)
Number of downloads: 4
When I change the ProxyEnable value to 0 and delete the ProxyServer entry it returns when system reboots. I have scanned with these tools:
MalwareBytes
found a number of viruses including PUM.BAD.PROXY but with different port number than above. After safemode full scans and normal mode full scans, MalwareBytes says I'm clean
TDSS Killer
Found rootkit viruses and says they were succesfully removed
Eset Online Scanner
Only found what TDSS had quarantined so I deleted TDSS Quarantine folder.
Eset Nod32 5
Didn't find anything
Super anti-Spyware
Didn't find anything
Spyboy Search and destroy
Nothing
Hitman Pro
Finds this registry entry saying that Internet Explorer is using this proxy server deletes it but returns when rebooted
I have exhausted all of tricks and need some help getting rid of this. Like I said earlier this is a POS system and all work performed is done remotely. I thought of running ComboFix but wasn;t sure if anyone has used this remotely. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
