Vista desktop infected with Trojan:Win32/AgentBypass.gen!K

Hi

I have what seems like the exact same problem as Kid_B so i decided to just post in this thread.

As boopme asked Kid_B to do i did the scan with SUPERAntiSpyware and Malwarebytes Anti-Malware.
With MBAM it found nothing and with SAS it just found some tracking cookies but otherwise nothing.

When i restarted my computer after SAS was done after about a minute after i had loggged in Windows Defender came up and said that it found that trojan again. Also last night i did a scan with Dr.Web in safemode and after about 3hr it still found nothing.

How is it that only Windows Defender can 'see' this trojan and what do i do? I even have Norton running and did a full scan with that but still nothing.

Thanks in advance
AK

HI AK I split your topic away as you're going in a diifferent direction than the other poster. It's alwaya better to have your own topic.

Some infections are difficult to remove completely because of their morphing characteristics which allows the malware to regenerate itself. Sometimes there is a hidden piece of malware which has not been detected that protects files (which have been detected) and registry keys so they cannot be permanently deleted. Disinfection will probably require the use of more powerful tools than we recommend in this forum. Before that can be done you will need you to create and post a DDS/HijackThis log for further investigation.

Please read the pinned topic titled "Preparation Guide For Use Before Posting A Hijackthis Log". If you cannot complete a step, then skip it and continue with the next. In Step 6 there are instructions for downloading and running DDS which will create a Pseudo HJT Report as part of its log.

When you have done that, post your log in the HijackThis Logs and Malware Removal forum, NOT here, for assistance by the HJT Team Experts. A member of the Team will walk you through, step by step, on how to clean your computer. If you post your log back in this thread, the response from the HJT Team will be delayed because your post will have to be moved. This means it will fall in line behind any others posted that same day.

Hello A.K,

Now that you have a log posted here: http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/forums/t/193340/trojanwin32agentbypassgenk-infection/ 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.
