angelali Posted September 21, 2013 ID:733053 Share Posted September 21, 2013 HiI ran a quick scan on my laptop and found PUM.UserWLoad.Of course, I was quite distressed and removed it immediately.I rerun a full scan of my laptop using malwarebytes and this time, the Trojan is no longer found.I rebooted my laptop and rerun a quick scan, the PUM.UserWLoad is no longer detected.Should I still be worried?I appreciate this is a particularly tricky Trojan to remove.As I use my laptop for Internet banking transactions, I am quite worried. (Have now changed all passwords)Is there anything else I should do or should I trust Malwarebytes detection skills?Prompt guidance truly appreciated.Thanks.

angelali Posted September 22, 2013 Author ID:733121 Share Posted September 22, 2013 Sorry was wrong about the csrss.exe process.I don't think its a trojan or corrupted.Forgive my anxiety to remove this issue.I followed your replies to another lady on how to remove the PUM.UserWLoad.So I've gone and deleted the registry keys for PUM.UserWLoad found by Rogue Killer.There were no files found.I reran the scan and the registry keys have not reappeared but I cannot be 100%.I'll reboot my laptop.Have attached the 2nd report from Rogue Killer.RKreport0_S_09222013_110950.txt Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

MrCharlie Posted September 22, 2013 ID:733213 Share Posted September 22, 2013 OK...next: Please download and run ComboFix. The most important things to remember when running it is to disable all your malware programs and run Combofix from your desktop. Please visit this webpage for download links, and instructions for running ComboFix http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/combofix/how-to-use-combofix Ensure you have disabled all anti virus and anti malware programs so they do not interfere with the running of ComboFix. Information on disabling your malware programs can be found Here. Make sure you run ComboFix from your desktop. Give it at least 30-45 minutes to finish if needed. Please include the C:\ComboFix.txt in your next reply for further review. ---------->NOTE<----------If you get the message Illegal operation attempted on registry key that has been marked for deletion after you run ComboFix....please reboot the computer, this should resolve the problem. You may have to do this several times if needed. MrC Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

MrCharlie Posted September 22, 2013 ID:733287 Share Posted September 22, 2013 Java is correct.Adobe Flash Player 10 Flash Player out of Date! <---please check for an update if available or uninstall and download and install Foxit Reader which is less vulnerable to malware and much better than Adobe. Don't install any toolbars that may come with it (ASK Toolbar).---------------------------------------------A little clean up to do....Please Uninstall ComboFix: (if you used it)Press the Windows logo key + R to bring up the "run box"Copy and paste next command in the field:ComboFix /uninstallMake sure there's a space between Combofix and /Then hit enter.This will uninstall Combofix, delete its related folders and files, hide file extensions, hide the system/hidden files and clears System Restore cache and create new Restore point(If that doesn't work.....you can simply rename ComboFix.exe to Uninstall.exe and double click it to complete the uninstall or download and run the uninstaller)---------------------------------If you used FRST:Download the fixlist.txt to the same folder as FRST.Run FRST and click Fix only once and waitThat will delete the quarantine folder created by FRST.-----------------------------Please download OTC to your desktop.http://oldtimer.geekstogo.com/OTC.exeDouble-click OTC to run it. (Vista and up users, please right click on OTC and select "Run as an Administrator")Click on the CleanUp! button and follow the prompts.(If you get a warning from your firewall or other security programs regarding OTC attempting to contact the Internet, please allow the connection.)You will be asked to reboot the machine to finish the Cleanup process, choose Yes.After the reboot all the tools we used should be gone.Note: Some more recently created tools may not yet be removed by OTC. Feel free to manually delete any tools it leaves behind.Any other programs or logs you can manually delete.IE: RogueKiller.exe, RKreport.txt, RK_Quarantine folder, C:\FRST, MBAR, etc....AdwCleaner > just run the program and click uninstall.-------------------------------Any questions...please post back.If you think I've helped you, please leave a comment > click on my avatar picture > click Profile Feed.Take a look at My Preventive Maintenance to avoid being infected again.Good Luck and Thanks for using the forum, MrC Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
