SVCHost.exe Bitcoin mining trojan


Recommended Posts

Firstly, I would like to thank everyone for any help I can get.

 

The issue started off when I noticed some strange behavior whereby my graphics cards seems to be working at 99% load all the time. I have download Malwarebytes and performed a scan on my PC. It seems that my PC has been infected with some sort of Bitcoin mining malware disguised as svchost.exe and has been utilizing my GPU at full capacity for the past weeks. 

 

The good news is Malwarebytes was able to quarantine and have everything under control (well done I must say, Kaspersky is not very useful since it could not find the malware), the bad news is that the malware is still on my PC. It comes back to haunt my GPU everytime I turn on my PC.

 

Attached are the files from the Farbar recovery scans.

 

Any assistance will be greatly appreciated

Don't Delete anything unless instructed to!

If you get the warning about a file UnsignedFile.Multi.Generic or LockedFile.Multi.Generic please choose

Skip and click on Continue

    Ensure Cure (default) is selected, then click Continue > Reboot now to finish the cleaning process.

    Note: If Cure is not available, please choose Skip instead, do not choose Delete unless instructed.

Your version of CCleaner is way out of date:
CCleaner (HKLM\...\CCleaner) (Version: 4.02 - Piriform)

Download and install the latest version, you can install it right over the top of the old one.

http://www.piriform.com/ccleaner/download

Run a scan to clean out temp files and let me know how the computer is.

OK.......

Lets check your computers security before you go and we have a little cleanup to do also:

Download Security Check by screen317 from HERE or HERE.

  • Save it to your Desktop.
  • Double click SecurityCheck.exe and follow the onscreen instructions inside of the black box.
  • If you get Unsupported operating system. Aborting now, just reboot and try again.
  • A Notepad document should open automatically called checkup.txt.
  • Please Post the contents of that document.
  • Do Not Attach It!!!

I noticed something that might/might not be a problem. From the past few days, i found that some of the windows gadgets seems to be missing. I always have a clock and Kaspersky's gadgets on my desktop, but sometimes they failed to show up during reboot. Right-click and choosing Gadgets seems to have no effect at all. Any Idea what might have caused this?

I'm not familiar with the Windows Gadgets, if you want...you can ask that question at this tech forum and they will help you out:

http://www.geekstogo.com/forum/forum/79-windows-vista-and-windows-7/

-----------------------------------------------

Out dated programs on the system are vulnerable to malware.
Please update or uninstall them:


----------------------------------------------

Adobe Reader 10.1.9 Adobe Reader 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).

---------------------------------------------

Mozilla Firefox 25.0.1 Firefox out of Date! <----please update your Firefox
https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/update-firefox-latest-version

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

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 /uninstall

Make sure there's a space between Combofix and /

cf2.jpg

Then hit enter. (it may look like CF is re-installing but it's not)
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)

---------------------------------

bwebb7v.jpgDownload Delfix from here and save it to your desktop.

  • Ensure Remove disinfection tools is checked.
  • Click the Run button.

Any other programs or logs you can manually delete. (right click.....Delete)
IE: RogueKiller.exe, RKreport.txt, RK_Quarantine folder, C:\FRST folder, FRST-OlderVersion folder, MBAR folder, etc....AdwCleaner > just run the program and click uninstall.

Note:
If you used FRST and can't delete the quarantine folder:
Download the fixlist.txt to the same folder as FRST.exe.
Run FRST.exe and click Fix only once and wait
That will delete the quarantine folder created by FRST.
The rest you can manually delete.

-------------------------------

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. (My Preventive Maintenance also found HERE)

Good Luck and Thanks for using the forum, MrC
