====================================================

ESET Online result:

====================================================

This scanner reported no infections.

====================================================

I chose to report ESET instead of Panda because after I ran Panda (which took many hours) I then pressed the wrong key in my browser and lost the results before I could grab them. Let me know if Panda results are still useful to have at this point.

Other notes:

Spybot found 5 virtumonde registry entries but it could remove only 4 out of the 5.

WinPatrol first brought this issue to my attention and it has proved valuable in identifying suspicious resources. It showed no active processes or services that were suspicious (to me) but it did report about a dozen hidden files that were malware (mostly dlls in the \windows\system32 directory). I could delete most of these but there was one file that it could not delete.

WinPatrol also revealed 3 startup tasks that were part of the infection. I could delete 2 out of the 3. The 3rd one immediately regenerated when I attempted to delete it. (And yet I could not identify an active process or service that was doing the regeneration.)

Note that my computer exists in a corporate setting, but there is no one to assist in diagnosis and repair.

I believe I have cleansed my system and am posting this followup note in case it is helpful to others.

The key item, as HijackThis shows in the log above, is:

AppInit_DLLs: C:\WINDOWS\system32\pomawiha.dll

Before I ran HijackThis, I found that file among the hidden files that WinPatrol found and attempted to delete it but I could not. I did manage to finally delete it but that did not help--something was clearly still running because whenever I deleted the entry from startup items it came right back. So I was quite puzzled by that.

I ran Spybot again and it again found 5 virtumondo items, and again could not delete 1 of them. It said it could do it on a reboot so I let it try. Upon reboot, I logged in, Spybot ran, and said it found 4 infected items. It did NOT say it fixed anything which left me guessing. Did it do something or not???

HijackThis still showed the above problem so I do not think Spybot did anything. Trudging on: The Info button for the item in HijackThis clearly indicated that just deleting that registry item would not be enough; I would also need to delete the file. Since I had already deleted the file earlier I now let HijackThis delete the registry item. And that cleaned my system!

Rechecking I now have a clean bill of health from HijackThis, Spybot, and Panda.

I am very much a novice at this--are there other things I should be verifying before I can say I am truly clean?
