Infected with brower/search redirection

Working on a friends laptop. Doesn't really look infected until I noticed a lot of browser connection failures and search redirections - like to stopsign.com. Ran a good copy of NOD32 (updated) - nothing.

Tried to run Spybot S&D - won't execute after installed.

Can't connection to many free malware/antivirus sites to download a fix.

Computer runs fine otherwise. Not slow.

Aloha - and thanks.

Welcome to the BleepingComputer Forums.

Since it has been a few days since you scanned your computer with HijackThis, we will need a new HijackThis log. If you have not already downloaded Random's System Information Tool (RSIT), please download Random's System Information Tool (RSIT) by random/random which includes a HijackThis log and save it to your desktop. If you have RSIT already on your computer, please run it again.

• Double click on RSIT.exe to run RSIT.
• Click Continue at the disclaimer screen.
• Please post the contents of log.txt.

Thank you for your patience.

Please see Preparation Guide for use before posting about your potential Malware problem.

If you have already posted this log at another forum or if you decide to seek help at another forum, please let us know. There is a shortage of helpers and taking the time of two volunteer helpers means that someone else may not be helped.

Please post your HijackThis log as a reply to this thread and not as an attachment. I am always leery of opening attachments so I always request that HijackThis logs are to be posted as a reply to the thread. I do not think that you are attaching anything scary but others may do so.

While we are working on your HijackThis log, please:

• Reply to this thread; do not start another!
• Do not make any changes on your computer during the cleaning process or download/add programs on your computer unless instructed to do so.
• Do not run any other tool until instructed to do so!
• Let me know if any of the links do not work or if any of the tools do not work.
• Tell me about problems or symptoms that occur during the fix.
• Do not run any other programs or open any other windows while doing a fix.
• Ask any questions that you have regarding the fix(es), the infection(s), the performance of your computer, etc.

Thanks.

Thanks for your reply - is been a while and I have been traveling anyway.

The subject computer/laptop has already been cleaned and is back at work for this user. The trojan was a nasty one - Win32.TDSS.rtk. I got it cleaned using the usual tools and a lot of persistence. Sorry I don't have the final HJT log - it is on the infected laptop.

I did advise the owner that this was a very nasty virus and that some financial companies actually replace the harddrive with these type of rootkits.

The laptop now has fresh protection installed - NOD32 Smart Security - Java update - Windows update - Firefox - Malwarebytes and Spybot S&D. I will do another checkup in 2-4 weeks.

If you have a chance - let me know what you think of the original HJT that I posted. I also found NewHeur_PE.virus on the machine - and a bunch of porn.

Aloha

Thank you for letting me know. I am sorry I do not have time to give an opinion. We are very, very busy.
