    crosspost: having again a bad day with this virus on log into xp pro


    hi all!


    this virus i have for at least 5 years....going on from my first
    notebook, it is with hdd which i have cloned onto another disk and
    repaired XP pro sp3. I have ben using malwarbytes, superantispyware,
    avast and trusword allalong and everytime i do find some new kind of
    spyware,trojan, virus or some other junk.


    i really don't make much of downloads but i did had some stupid
    applications and or some stupid programs which were security risks in
    respect that i was using this notebook as an important workstation.


    the last standing virus which i have now on my hdd is preventing me
    to
    long into adminstrator interface od win xp both regular and safe
    mode,
    i.e. i can't log into system. When i get the first log page there is
    no users icons to log into, i.e. there is no empty field to input
    username and password it is hidden, missing.


    i did solved that issue once before as i did had backup and i did
    have
    pointed that disk on another clean computer and cleaned the disk with
    some antivirus programs, i used combofix.exe also.


    this virus is a persistent one, and it bumps out of nowhere also
    after
    5 antivirus-spyware checkups and manually deleting and dsearching for
    "odd files" ...etc. maybe it is perlovga but i did everything i
    possibly could to get rid of it.


    One of old-school ways would be to put a fresh copy of system but i
    do
    have a load bunch of programs installed, and UI which i have adjusted
    through many years...if i do that, the only things i wouldn0t like to
    maintain are internet browsers favorites and their adjustmens, really
    it is not such a hard work but i would rather choose the search and
    destroy method manually or through the antivirus program...


    What to do to punch thi virus into nose and to bring back normal
    windows log-on console so as safemode.


    p.s. this happened to me yesterday for som 6th time as i was trying
    to
    log on into safemode into admin account ...

    You write much but actually write nothing about the nature of the malware you suposedly
    had for 5 years.

    You call "it" a "virus". Assuming that you have malware it is doubtful it is a virus.
    There are so few of them Today (or five years ago) while there are magnitudes more
    trojans. That is why the term malware is used. All viruses are malware but not all
    malware are viruses.

    You say you have used; Malwarbytes, Superantispyware, Avast, "trusword" and have also
    used ComboFix (dangerous tool if used wrongly or under certain circumstances).

    What is "trusword" ?

    What makes you think you have had a partucular malware for 5 years ?

    i have been using Truesword 4 and newer Truesword 5 from stronghold
    antivirus company---it is a good software for examinig computer but it
    is a security risk i guess.

    i have the same symptoms of this malware for 5 years ... this with
    locking up login console is the same symptom for all this years, i
    could only make an assumption that it started with the autorun.inf as
    a part of this malware as you call it. That all are viruses for me.

    I do also don't respect stronghold company i'm asssured they do not
    provide the good service for that 50$.
    As i was having their software or of trouble maker software i chose to
    install Trend micro Internet security package software called
    TITANIUM, but it also ahven't found this malware, yes i call it a
    malware as it replicates and it did that onto my other computer and
    notebook. I have spred additional licenses over my other two stations
    i.e. a notebook and a computer. I think Trend micro is a respectable
    company and i don't need any other anti-virus softwares anymore. TM +
    manual handling is ok.

    i hope so...

    p.s. i copied the wsaupdater.exe to system32 folder but again i could
    not to approach the system...

    i really couldn't to contrive about what other symptoms there were
    except that one, but with monthly cleaning the computer with that 4-5
    antivirus programs i did cleaned various infections such as newer
    remebered small virus K or something like that. I would like to
    know more on subject how to protect system when cleaned as a primary
    thing so not to let that infections, to stay uninfected in the future
    time..

    what i suppose you suppose is that i lack the knowledge for manually
    clean registry files or to search and destroy malicious files ...
    i did it manualy once over the hijack but it was good for a month or
    so, so it it is a replicative sonofabit..cs

    Nothing you have stated yet, are symptoms of an infected computer. A computer with errors
    and/or corruption yes, but not necessarily malware related unless you can provided
    SPECIFIC information.

    now i'm doing the manual repair of system files, system32 folder files
    were missing after manually tried to replace them...

    i don't have REPAIR option through xp pro sp3 cd, so i'll try the
    manual repairing these files by replacing them...

    but that's just the consequence but not the source of this problem.
    the goal was to replace windows logon console as this virus is acting
    on that permanantely.


    Thanks for your help, but you viruses are viruses, both malwares and
    viruses, there is no difference, and that is as it is. !

    your Friend,
    myscosop.

    p.s. guys writing about this virus on some forum "We need to know
    what the exact error message is. There maybe a way to get you booted
    by installing the correct drivers (DLLs) but you may need to perform a
    disc check to see if your harddrive is ok. Sometimes these viruses
    just screw with the files and sometimes they are able to destroy
    complete folders...
