trojan.dropper/base

[btcomm]

The file is BASEMRE32.DLL it is located in system32 folder. When I remove it with super anti spyware I can no longer boot the machine, no matter what mode I select it will boot to a blue screen saying stop: 0000135 {unable to located component} where I can't do anything but turn the computer off.

Where is this file being referenced? Can I remove the reference so that when the file is gone I can still boot up?

I have searched the registry and it does not list this file, hijackthis log does not list it either.

I cannot find anything related to either basemre.dll (except your posts). Usually that's not good because malware often make up new names for themselves when infecting a pc.

I would still suggest submitting that dll to a multi scan site to see what other scanners make of it.. both to confirm it's actually malware and to find other names for the virus because that name above also garners no hits.

Also, let us have a look at the hijackthis log.

I seem to have some form of this virus too. AVG removes it but causes the no-boot BSOD. The name on mine is basepkk32.dll and is in the system32 folder. Not exactly sure what symptoms it causes since most computers that are infect have more then just one virus or trojan. But I get popups whenever i open a browser ranging from 'anti-malware' to porn. One computer with this infection couldn't actually browse correctly like a browser hijack. If you did a google search any link you clicked would come back with one of ten or so webpages that were not what you clicked. Windows update does not work either. And I can't turn on system restore on one computer.

All that to say, I'm not sure what this trojan is but superantispyware says it's a trojan.dropper/base which norton says should be easy to remove but doesn't detect it. And it's difficult to find information on a trojan that changes names. :P

Anyone found a good way to remove this without noobing the computer?

Tools I have tried and had some success, but unsure of how much include:
Norton, a-squared free, avg (free and trial), superantispyware, spybot, adaware, smitfraudfix, ccleaner, avast free, winsockxpfix, hijackthis(another guy who knows more how to use this tool then I ran it for me) and a few others I'm not thinking of right now.

Welcome to virtualdr.

Let us have a look at the logfiles from superantispyware and hijackthis. Copy/paste them into the next post you make.

Could you pls start a new thread? it can get very complicated dealing with more than one persons problems in the same place. You can reference this one for background on the issue.

thanks.
