Solution for this problem is located at the bottom, note, This solution should only be used if ur anti-spyware cannot delete component by itself and u have tried multiple other ways.


Ok, so i got this annoying malware thing, i've found its main component, sstqn.dll, its in my system32 folder, i've tried to take it out, killbox, spybot, ad-aware, spyware doctor, kaspersky (kaspersky cant detect it ofcourse cuz its not a virus) anyway, i got the component, spyware doctor is picking up its traces as
Explorer.exe (C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM32\sstqn.dll)
firefox.exe (C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM32\sstqn.dll)
also...
Ad-Aware.exe (C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM32\sstqn.dll)
HijackThis.exe (C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM32\sstqn.dll)
but im running scans with those two so i kinda expect it to take them into consideration.
anyway, i can tell its inside my explorer.exe shell, and my firefox, but i cant delete it anyway, i tried also this Moveonboot program, that doesn't do anything
its gotta be either protected by some sort of other file somewhere i cant detect, OR windows is seriously not about to let that file be deleted.

Anyway, heres my HJT Log...

Apperantly with my research on google, i've seen alot of people take care of this Virtumonde Malware with no problem... but they also deleted different components and programs that were infected, i just got one little bastard component that wont delete, any help?
Any and all help will be deeply appreciated :)
sinse i've been wrestling with this thing for weeks now, and i could prolly learn a bit from this experience and be able to help others with similar problems.

PS. im really into network security :p
thats why im really interested when my computer gets infected somehow and i let myself try to figure it out before reaching for help, but in this case, im stumped.

Thank you :)

Ok forget the hole thing i figure it out,
here it is

Apperantly the sstqn.exe was binded with the WinLogon process, simple
went to safe mode
used KILLBOX to stop the winlogon service, and deleted,
when i did it without stoppin the process it said it cant be deleted, so, i started stoping one by one and tryin to delete the file, finally the little barstard got deleted! im not sure if thats the end of my problems (popups)
as it is not... apperantly just now a popup came up -.-''
ok! so i have a bit of a road ahead of me, i'll keep you guys updated

oh and hint, for future reference, remember if a file cant be deleted try stopping some processes
ALTHOUGH, some process may cause the BSOD, so be careful, just, keep a wise eye out :)
i think i might of damaged my system a bit by doing this... sooo im gna figure out what really happened

Pretty funny how as i posted my problem i figured it out huh? :/
it just hit me "why dont you take out a process and see?"
and when i did it and worked "Duh"

Ok it seems like im writting to myself here... anyway i found another problem, sinse i deleted the sstqn.dll and restarted...
my spyware doctor picked up another one... mlljh.dll... pretty much the same as sstqn.dll, same place, same thing, just dif name
argh, ok im gna figure this one,
One, there may be some other program on my comp that is replacing the missing component when i deleted it... cuz supposedly it was to find this one as well as sstqn.dll, but apperantly it only showed me one of them.. so i think these files are supporting each other, goin back and forth if one deleted, renew it... x.x'
i'll keep updating...

Ok heres what my TrendMicro Anti-spyware "venus Trap" found out...
some internet explorer pluggins! yay! -.-''
guess what their names are?
C:\WINDOWS\system32\sstqn.dll...

C:\WINDOWS\system32\mlljh.dll...

C:\WINDOWS\system32\gebbxyv.dll
C:\Docume~1\UserName\Locals~1\~DP2A.dll

C:\WINDOWS\system32\aatqr.dll

C:\WINDOWS\system32\awtqr.dll

C:\WINDOWS\system32\pyallfdx.dll

Im gna take a quick hint and say these are the files "support group"

and the little basterds are messing with my registry tools, giving me a restriction to disable ability to go into regedit... hah how i love the ways of viruses ^_^
smart little bastards...
TIME TO DELETE! :D

Note: U must take out the Winlogon process from safe mode, in normal startup it will restart ur computer to take out the process, or at least it did for me

Ok so this is turning out to be one hell of a trip, im done for tonight i'll update so far,
i deleted the mlljh.dll + gebbxyv.dll, sinse i was only able to find those, the other aatqr.dll didnt exist.. not sure why... but i deleted these the same way

NOTE!
When u take out the Winlogon process make sure u take the smss.exe as well, for some reason it only stays logged in when both are taken out, at the same time, if u just take out winlogon comp will restart, and if u do smss.exe first, then pause, then take out winlogon it will still restart... i have no idea how...
ANYWAY!
i deleted the two files with killbox after taking out the process, and so far, my scans have not shown any "Virtumonde" malware anywhere ^_^
although i am in the middle of the scan.. and im sleepy... but i shall update tomorow!
See how crazy i get when it comes to viruses, i seem to forget about sleep >.>'
anyway, i shall update, goodnight

WARNING: Getting rid of these components MAY be a HAZARD to the system, I have gotten the BSOD a few times... not sure if it is from this or not, i am currently fixing it with System Mechanic 6... Be Aware Of The "Casualties"
To me, it was worth getting off, that thing was pissing me off and slowing my comp to a snail.


Okay! its done, i finished it all.
With a minor set back...
The files, C:/WINDOWS/system32/sstqn.dll
C:/WINDOWS/system32/mlljh.dll
C:/WINDOWS/system32/gebbxyv.dll
and others listed that may be a part of it (i didnt find anytrace of thses)
C:\Docume~1\UserName\Locals~1\~DP2A.dll
C:\WINDOWS\system32\aatqr.dll
C:\WINDOWS\system32\awtqr.dll
C:\WINDOWS\system32\pyallfdx.dll

I deleted these files as followed...

1. Began Windows in Safe Mode
2. Loged In as Admin
3. Had a Program called KillBot
4. Opened KillBot
5. Used a program to Scan my system
6. Tried deleting the files listed normally, and with killbot
7. If not able to (in my case) i took out the process "smss.exe" and "winlogon.exe"
8. Then deleted the files sstqn.dll, mlljh.dll, and gebbxyv.dll
9. Windows will not allow restart after WinLogon is terminated, for the reason that WinLogon, as it names states, is the main component in logging in and out of Windows.
10. I used KillBot's Force Reboot to restart comp
11. Started in normal boot, scanned pc for malware (using Spyware Doctor)
12. No malware found, also it didnt show any separate malware that "VirtuMonde" downloads from web.

And thats all she wrote! do comment if you found this unseful in any way =]
and if you have a setback somewhere or any more info, please do comment and state it, this little bugger was tricky, but it did open up how to get it off and maybe a million other ones.

Oh and a note, the file rundll32.exe was deleted in the process.. not sure if it was due to the virus or my mistake, although i dont recall deleting it,
this file is mainly for system operations:
security center
add remove hardware/software
system settings
etc.
when its deleted the OS states the program cannot find rundll32.exe
remember the 32** in the name,
look for a site to reinstall the component, ez fix

Also Hi EP and people. I found this place again while looking through a oooollllllldddd backup. I have filled over 10TB and was looking at my collection of antiques. Any bids on the 500Mhz Win 95 fix?
Any of the SP crew still out there?

Impressed you have kept this alive this long EP! So many sites have come and gone. :(

Just did some crude math and I apparently joined almost 18yrs ago, how is that possible???

Rest in peace my friend, been trying to find you and finally did in the worst way imaginable.
