Guest seanmichael60 Posted March 13, 2012 Posted March 13, 2012 Recently I was hit with 3 viruses. MSE caught them but one kept coming back. I let Microsoft support take over my computer and after they finished they assured me it was clean. I later found a file on my desktop and I didn't put it there. I deleted it, the short cut and the location it pointed to. I checked my event logs and founf the following entry; Microsoft Antimalware has detected malware or other potentially unwanted software. For more information please see the following: http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?linkid=37020&name=TrojanDownloader:Win32/Dofoil.O&threatid=2147653354 Name: TrojanDownloader:Win32/Dofoil.O ID: 2147653354 Severity: Severe Category: Trojan Downloader Path: containerfile:_C:\Documents and Settings\Dell\Application Data\A6AF17.exe;file:_C:\Documents and Settings\Dell\Application Data\A6AF17.exe->(UPX);regkey:_HKCU@S-1-5-21-1390067357-1767777339-1801674531-1003\SOFTWARE\MICROSOFT\WINDOWS\CURRENTVERSION\POLICIES\EXPLORER\RUN\\Pure Networks;runkey:_HKCU@S-1-5-21-1390067357-1767777339-1801674531-1003\SOFTWARE\MICROSOFT\WINDOWS\CURRENTVERSION\POLICIES\EXPLORER\RUN\\Pure Networks Detection Origin: Local machine Detection Type: Concrete Detection Source: System User: NT AUTHORITY\NETWORK SERVICE Process Name: Unknown Signature Version: AV: 1.121.908.0, AS: 1.121.908.0, NIS: 0.0.0.0 Engine Version: AM: 1.1.8101.0, NIS: 0.0.0.0 After seeing this I went into the registry and did a search for S-1-5-21-1390067357-1767777339-1801674531-1003 which is part of the above path. There are many entries in the registry. I'm familiar with the registry and editing it. However, I do not make modifications to it unless I know for a fact what I'm doing. Do I need to remove these entries from the registry? In my research I also found in Local Security Settings > Local Policies > User Rights Assignments several entries of the same string under the Security Setting column. Do I need to do any thing with these entries? Any help will be greatly appreciated. Continue reading... Quote
