i tried boot time scannin and deleted these files but it reappears wen cmd opens

also tries microsoft malicious software removal tool

EDIT:

It is a trojan

sorry, i mis typd the trojan name, now its corrected

Id try a different Antivirus if that one isnt working (avg is free)

also, i was unable to find any information on 'Win32:hupogon-BQO' if you need help with this virus, it might help us to know what exactly its called

the trojan name is mis-typed

it actually

Win32:hupigon-BQO

It is safe to delete those files as they are not needed...

It sounds like they're getting restored from the dllcache folder. So you may want to try going into the command prompt and running sfc /purgecache then scanning your Windows directory for viruses.

previousla i did that

first run sfc /purgecache

then sfc /cachesize=0

still it resurfaces wen i open cmd

Boot into Safe Mode and scan the Windows directory.

As I said, i tried boot time scanning, found nothing

if iput it ignore in avast (clicking Noaction button)

another problem happens, sme process opens iexplore.exe and it consumes memory, there is lot of iexplore.exe

process in taskmgr

let me check once more with boot time scanning .....

Once you'll have cleaned those very visible things, get interested in the several invisible and stable rootkits your system is likely to be infected with.

just get Icesword and look in the process list for items in RED. those are items that are not visible to the OS directly(aka rootkits).

there are other ways to fond 'em but IceSword has never let me down

cmd.exe problem solved

its due to some autorun entry in HKLM\software\Cicrosoft\Command Processor

{thanx to Sysinternals autoruns}

its loads 2 memory by userinit {HKLM\Software\Microsoft\windows NT\CurrentVersion\winlogon}

userinit=C:\WINDOWS\system32\userinit.exe,rundll32.exe userinit.exe,rundll32.exe,rundll32.exe start,rundll32.exe C:\WINDOWS\system32\winsys16_061230.dll start

i deleted it and put just

C:\WINDOWS\system32\userinit.exe

wat is supposed to be default uerinit value ??

Now, problem is from winlogon and iexplore.exe

after loading desktop

iexplore.exe runs in background,

by checking with unlocker it is locked by winlogon.exe

how to prevent this? ,why winlogon starting it ??

The root of the Trojan is still hidden (ans i cant make un hide folders, it just resets)

and can be seen in list of screensaves as scrsys16_061230

Now, problem is from winlogon and iexplore.exe

after loading desktop

iexplore.exe runs in background,

by checking with unlocker it is locked by winlogon.exe

how to prevent this? ,why winlogon starting it ??

My guess is you have a kernel mode rootkit installed which is responsable for that. It is very likely that your iexplore.exe process is the genuine Internet Explorer that has been launched by it, has been injected with so-called FWB code by it and serves as a backdoor server. Well, it is a possible explanation.

You should look at your system with IceSword recommended above IMO.

checked with IceSword found nothing in red

btw iexplore.exe problem too solved

its bcoz ,i havnt configured the Phone and Modem options in CP

after setting region and code and all, rebooted there after no iexplore.exe process initiated by winlogon.exe

(i dunno y i should set this as i use cable internet connecting directly 2 the lan card )

to conclude that I hope the problem is ALMOST solved.

still the presence of scrsys16_061230.scr in Sreensaver list is a prob.

wen i select it, avast detects and moves to chest (i afraid even that triggers the reactivation of the trojan)

Another problem to add is that i cant unhide folders (it resets back to hide folders)

in registry i found that HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\Advanced\Hidden

is a REG_SZ value, is it actually a REG_DWORD?

maually making it a DWORD fails, as it automaically revert back to REG_SZ
