    Welcome,


    Since you have tried all those scanners this may not be a malware issue since they did not find anything. May have to send you over to the other side of this forum where they will know more about this problem as we deal with malware issue only here, but let's do a couple scans that you might not of done yet.


    Download Dr.Web CureIt to the desktop:
    ftp://ftp.drweb.com/pub/drweb/cureit/drweb-cureit.exe

    * Doubleclick the drweb-cureit.exe file and Allow to run the express scan
    * This will scan the files currently running in memory and when something is found, click the yes button when it asks you if you want to cure it. This is only a short scan.
    * Once the short scan has finished, mark the drives that you want to scan.
    * Select all drives. A red dot shows which drives have been chosen.
    * Click the green arrow at the right, and the scan will start.
    * Click 'Yes to all' if it asks if you want to cure/move the file.
    * When the scan has finished, look if you can click next icon next to the files found:

    * If so, click it and then click the next icon right below and select Move incurable as you'll see in next image:


    This will move it to the %userprofile%\DoctorWeb\quarantaine-folder if it can't be cured. (this in case if we need samples)
    * After selecting, in the Dr.Web CureIt menu on top, click file and choose save report list
    * Save the report to your desktop. The report will be called DrWeb.csv
    * Close Dr.Web Cureit.
    * Reboot your computer!! Because it could be possible that files in use will be moved/deleted during reboot.
    * After reboot, post the contents of the log from Dr.Web you saved previously in your next reply. You can use Notepad to open the DrWeb.cvs report.



    1. Download this file - COMBOFIX
    2. Double click combofix.exe & follow the prompts.
    3. When finished, it will produce a log for you. Post that log in your next reply

    Note:
    Do not mouseclick combofix's window whilst it's running. That may cause it to stall.


    Post a new hijackthis log also please.


    If you have to use two posts to get it all back here that is just fine.

    Thanks for that.


    I found numerous suspicious files from combofix log and each one needs to be scanned to check validity.



    Go here to learn how to show hidden files/folders:

    http://www.xtra.co.nz/help/0,,4155-1916458,00.html#5

    Re-hide after we are done




    Go to next site:
    http://www.virustotal.com/en/indexf.html
    On top you'll find 'Browse'
    Click the browse button and browse to next file:


    D:\WINDOWS\system32\21.tmp


    Click open.
    Then click the 'Send' button next to it.
    This will scan the file. Please be patient.
    Once scanned, copy and paste the results as well in your next reply.


    If that one is to busy here is another option:


    http://virusscan.jotti.org

    And

    http://www.kaspersky.com/scanforvirus.html



    Do the same for these below please:


    D:\WINDOWS\system32\dna08e9ef4.dat
    D:\WINDOWS\system32\vrm.exe
    D:\WINDOWS\system32\vsm.exe
    D:\WINDOWS\system32\virport.dll
    D:\DOCUME~1\ALLUSE~1\APPLIC~1\dufqxypq.dll




    If you have trouble getting one scanned try a different scanner please and post the results for each file in case we need to kill files.

    Save 20% on AVG Internet Security 2012 Suite!
    Did you install a program called MicroBillsys

    Or maybe MBS Account Manager

    I found it on your system and it is related to bill paying from visiting porn sites and such and is considered a trojan/adware of some sorts and does all kinds of crazy things to your computer.

    We can remove it.


    Do something for me, click start>search>type in MBS Account Manager and do a search for that on your computer, also search for this MicroBillsys and let me know if it is found please.


    This is related to two of those files you could not find for scanning that showed up in combofix log.
