I ran Ad-Aware this morning and had 41 data miners tracking cookies and items on MRU List.
I get two dialog boxes repeatedly, which are "A Script is Running" and "Error message - Do you want to Debug".
I get the "Do you want to debug" message as many as 30-40 times for a single webpage. Part of the error message says "Object not defined".
I have all scripts blocked in my Panda configuration. I had to remove this block in order for Silent Runners to run, so I don't know what this message means or where it is coming from.
I have attached a sample of both error messages. Whatever is going on is making my system creepy slow.
I will perform both of these procedures but there is one other central issue.
In the first thread, I posted the Kaspersky online scan, which identified a number of items as either trojans or a worm. In addition, twice I tried to use Panda to run a full scan of my computer ( I have two hard drives) but Panda was only able to complete 25% of the scan on my C hard drive.
So, I think that something else is going on but you are the expert in this area.
Here is the URL for my first post, which details everything that I did prior to posting this message in the HijackThis conference.
When I run the Kaspersky online scan, they do not make any recommendations about deleting files that I could find.
Summary Information:
1. Tried to run Panda scan twice and it failed twice.
2. SpyBot has updated their software including a registry backup. I downloaded and installed the new version 1.5.1 SpyBot. Then I checked for updates before running SpyBot. SpyBot found 6 tracking cookies which I removed and then I clicked immunize system against all exploits defined in SpyBot.
3. Ran Ad-Aware after checking for updates and it found 11 objects in MRU List -- Ad-Aware says that these are harmless but it is tracking which documents that I am using, etc.; so I don't think the designation of harmless is accurate. There were also 2 tracking cookie objects. The Tracking Cookie objects had a TAC rating of 3. I had Ad-Aware remove all.
4. Ran 2nd Kaspersky online scan and it overview report said 2 viruses and 6 infected objects as compared to the first report, which said 5 viruses and 9 infected objects. However, when I looked at the actual detail it showed 3 instances of net-worm ... (see attached) and 1 instance of email-worm (see attached.
All instances occurred in the directory where I used the program DBXpress to unpack a locked Inbox in Outlook Express. There should not be any infected files in the Inbox because they should have been caught by my various security measures.
The email-worm is reported to infect dbx files, among others.
One other pecularity is that my Google Toolbar in IE is no longer there. I went to download Google Toolbar but it wants me to enable Browser Helper Objects, which I decided not to do. I don't know if this is a good idea or not but first things first. I want to get this problem fixed first. Then I will deal with the Google Toolbar issue and switching to Kaspersky Internet Security suite. In FireFox, the Google Toolbar is still present in the browser.
Here is the Kaspersky online scan report:

If I were you I would be deleting those backup files on 'D' you created that are coming up as infected. Whether your various security measures should have caught them or not is debatable, but imo, we should look on Kaspersky's results as being accurate .
MRU results are fairly benign as they only show the Most Recently Used files you have accessed.
Or is Kaspersky just reporting that there is a worm there that has not been activated yet?
Yes. As I pointed out in the original thread they are currently archived in a benign state in those email archives. The only way they could be activated is if you opened those emails and those attached viruses by importing them back into the email program.
I don't think your pc was infected at any point during this procedure... the non-activated viruses in the temp int folders were deleted and now there's just these archived emails. Any other problem would now need to be fixed in a more typical method of troubleshooting (which is not by more virus scanning ).
That one other .ini file does appear to have been a false positive.
This is all brand new to me, since I haven't gotten any infection or notification of infected file in 5.5 years. I will go delete those archived entries, then I will attempt to run another Panda scan followed by another Kaspersky online scan. If the Kaspersky scan comes up clean, then I will install Kaspersky.
BTW, does anyone have any idea why my Google Toolbar went poop? I made some changes in advanced mode for IE. Is there some change there, which could have made the toolbar go poop.
