To those here to help thanks.

I recently acquired a business pc that was believed to be "infected" upon running and installing Ad-Aware,Spybot s&d, and a anti-virus app.And scanning the anti-spy came back 100% clean but the a/v came back with 3 trojans. I ran Hijack This and came up with this log-file . . .

Logfile of HijackThis v1.99.1
Scan saved at 12:04:05 AM, on 6/30/2006

I was mainly concerned with entries 17 and the three #20 entries. I am not very skilled yet at reading these log files but am working on it. If someone could tell me if anything in this logfile shouldnt be running that would be great.

Many thanks for helping. - PeaInAPod :~)

number 20 is good its from spysweeper, i am also concerned about no 17, have you tried selecting and clicking fix.

i dont know what that is, have peer guardian running in the background, fully updated and surf the net, see if it tries to connect and if it is bad, peer guardian should pick it up and block it, and give you the name of what it is, otherwise i dont know.

soz couldnt be more help

I'm learning also but came up with these results for the items in question:

O17 - HKLM\System\CCS\Services\Tcpip\..\{87A66E96-718F-4A56-A196-BD1D76FE3D1B}: NameServer = 63.71.245.4 63.71.245.5

This is an internet/LAN connection to IP 63.71.245.4 and 5. It connects to Applied Computer Technologies of Illinois.

O20 - Winlogon Notify: igfxcui - C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM32\igfxsrvc.dll
O20 - Winlogon Notify: WgaLogon - C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM32\WgaLogon.dll
O20 - Winlogon Notify: WRNotifier - C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM32\WRLogonNTF.dll


In order they are:
Intel Graphics Accelerator Helper Module
Windows Genuine Advantage
WebRoot SpySweeper Module

All the 020 items seem to be OK. The one is question is the 017. Is it needed?

EDIT: I forgot to mention that sometimes SpySweeper and the Windows Genuine Advantage stuff don't always play nice together. I don't know what the problems are, but that's something to look at.

I searched dogpile.com for "Applied Computer Technologies of Illinois" and came up with a dial-up internet service thats operated by none other than ACT Internet (A=Applied, C=Computer, etc) so I guess it had something to do with his internet which he confirmed was with the ACT company. I still dont understand what it was doing but its from his Internet Company so it cant be anything malicious/harmful.

I would like to say Thank You to all who took time out of their day to reply to my thread so quickly. So to Dolphin2 and Phantom69 I wish you and the best of luck and many thanks.

I was wondering I would like to learn how to better read HijackThis logs is there any specific info/internet site that you can think of that would be a good place for me to start learning?? thanks :~)

im not sure about where to learn, but if you read a couple of threads here on ad where people have posted their hijack this logs and the problem has been solved. and you start familiarising yourself with windows processes and certain common software executables and registry keys. its really easy to pick up.

oh and btw, no problem dude.

There are several different ways to learn HijackThis logs. The best is: http://forum.malwareremoval.com/viewtopic.php?t=233&sid=256efac3a...

It's like a course you take to learn what tools to use.

Another site:
http://www.security-forums.com/viewtopic.php?t=13810&
------
HijackThis-scan-" class="korostus" target="_blank">http://www.malwarehelp.org/how-to-curepart-3-using-HijackThis-scan-

Then there is this: http://digg.com/security/HijackThis_Log_File_Analysis

I haven't used the last one, but it is supposed to be good. You just Copy and Paste the log file and it tells you the results.

Hope this helps.

I understand.

That last link can always be used for quick checks.

I just ran the posted log thru the HijackThis Log File Analysis on line. The only thing it questions was that 017 entry which we now know as safe. It asked if the IP address was known and if not, the entry should be deleted. Don't know how it will do with other infections but I'm going to try it out and see what it shows. Mostly I'm interested if it shows how to get rid of somethings that are bad.

Will post back results of some log scans.

---------

Here's a link to an infected log. Take a look at what it reports.

That online Malware Class thing is right up my alley. I am currently finishing high school and during the summer I can work on it at night and sometime during the day seeing as my job doesnt require me to be their full time (its great to be a kid :~) lol) anyway the links are awesome.

Glad you found them as useful. Also good to hear that you so interested that you would work on it during the summer and after work. You sound like a very energenic young person.

@Phantom69
I also understand your feelings on the course. Where are you planning on going? Just a general tour or do you have planned stops?

I live in southern Nevada. Temps here in summer can go as high as 115. During winter, I've seen it go below freezing (32). These are Fahrenheit. 46-0 Celsius.

I live in a small town in north western Illinois. We havent even got hills to climb on let alone Mountains. We live out in the country and are surrounded by fields. I never actually measured this or anything but you can probably see straight across the fields for a good couple miles! But when fall comes and they harvest the fields I got a good couple hundred acres of fields that I can ride my ATV through!! So its not all that bad here in Illinois I guess.

I don't like your Illinois winters. Ice storms are not for me!

@Phantom69
I've always wanted to visit Australia, but I'm afraid if I did, I may never want to leave! Aussie gals are something else!
