The process name is listed as uyitudbeg.exe*32 in task manager and is running from location : C:\Users\USERNAME\AppData\LocalLow\EmieUserList\lxvctjj\pytuerskksw

There are two folders EmieSiteList and EmieUserList and are both hidden folders not visible in the LocalLow folder even if I enable the system to show hidden files and folders.

I attached the results of FRST scan. Thanks for your help. I cannot manually delete the EmieSiteList and EmieUserList folders.

Hello,



They call me TwinHeadedEagle around here, and I'll be working with you.



Before we start please read and note the following:
  • At the top of your post, please click on the "Watch thread" button and make sure to check Watch this thread...and receive email notifications. This will send an email to you as soon as I reply to your topic, allowing me to solve your problem faster.
  • Please do not install any new software during the cleaning process other than the tools I provide for you. This can hinder the cleaning process. Please do not perform System Restore or any other restore.
  • Instructions I give to you are very simple and made for complete beginner to follow. That's why you need to read through my instructions carefully and completely before executing them.
  • Please do not run any tools other than the ones I ask you to, when I ask you to. Some of these tools can be very dangerous if used improperly. Also, if you use a tool that I have not requested you use, it can cause false positives, thereby delaying the complete cleaning of your machine.
  • All tools we use here are completely clean and do not contain any malware. If your antivirus detects them as malicious, please disable your antivirus and then continue.
  • If during the process you run across anything that is not in my instructions, please stop and ask. If any tool is running too much time (few hours), please stop and inform me.
  • I visit forum several times at day, making sure to respond to everyone's topic as fast as possible. But bear in mind that I have private life like everyone and I cannot be here 24/7. So please be patient with me. Also, some infections require less, and some more time to be removed completely, so bear this in mind and be patient.
  • Please stay with me until the end of all steps and procedures and I declare your system clean. Just because there is a lack of symptoms does not indicate a clean machine. If you solved your problem yourself, set aside two minutes to let me know.
  • Please attach all report using
    fjqb1h.png
    button below. Doing this, you make it easier for me to analyze and fix your problem.

  • Do not ask for help for your business PC. Companies are making revenue via computers, so it is good thing to pay someone to repair it.
  • If I don't hear from you within 3 days from this initial or any subsequent post, then this thread will be closed.

Twin Headed Eagle,

All seems to be well. I am in awe of your skills. Thank you. I am looking forward to your recommendations.

I am just curious, but why can I not see and/or delete the EmieSiteList and EmieUserList folders.

Thank you again. I will be glad to buy you a beer. Looking forward to your reply.

Because it is hidden under Application Data folder.

The Importance of Software Updating:

In order to stay protected it is
very important that you regularly update all of your software. Cybercriminals depend on the apathy of users around software updates to keep their malicious endeavor running.

Operating systems, such as Windows, and applications, such as Adobe Reader or JAVA, are used by tens of millions of computers and devices around the world, making them a huge target for cybercriminals. Downloading updates and installing them can sometimes be tedious, but the advantages you get from the updates are certainly worth it.




Recommended additional software:
icon_arrow.gif
TFC - to clean unneeded temporary files.
icon_arrow.gif
Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware - to scan your system from time to time in search for malware.
icon_arrow.gif
Malwarebytes' Anti-Exploit - to prevent plenty of mostly exploited vulnerabilities.
icon_arrow.gif
McShield - to prevent infections spread by removable media.
icon_arrow.gif
Unchecky - to prevent from installing additional foistware, implemented in legitimate installations.
icon_arrow.gif
FiheHippo.com Update Checker - to keep your programs up-to-date.
icon_arrow.gif
Adblock - to surf the web without annoying ads!



Post-cleanup procedures:


Download DelFix by Xplode and save it to your desktop.
  • Run the tool by right click on the
    51a5ce45263de-delfix.png
    icon and Run as administrator option.
  • Make sure that these ones are checked:
    • Remove disinfection tools
    • Purge system restore
    • Reset system settings
  • Push Run and wait until the tool completes his work.
  • All tools we used should be gone. Tool will create an report for you (C:\DelFix.txt)
The tool will also record healthy state of registry and make a backup using ERUNT program in %windir%\ERUNT\DelFix
Tool deletes old system restore points and create a fresh system restore point after cleaning.



My help is free for everybody.

Twin Headed Eagle,

We may not have found everything.

Process uyitudbeg.exe in task manager continues to exist and is running from this additional location:
C:\Users\Dad\AppData\LocalLow\Temp\lxvctjj\pytuerskksw

I've attached the results of the FRST scan.

I have not yet used DelFix to delete any tools.

Thank you for your help.

Regards,
ML

TwinHeadedEagle,

Looks good for now, but I am seeing uyitudbeg.exe*32 manifest itself in the additional locations:

C:\Users\USERNAME\AppData\LocalLow\Hewlett-Packard\lxvctjj
C:\Users\USERNAME\AppData\LocalLow\Adobe\dutqmvr\Local\Google\Chrome\User Data
C:\Users\USERNAME\AppData\LocalLow\Sun\dhwjrunjptz

Process uyitudbeg.exe*32 not appearing in task manager yet.

I've attached the results of a new FRST scan I've run after the fix you supplied above.
I have not yet used DelFix to delete any tools.
Thank you for your help.
Regards,
ML

TwinHeadedEagle,

Yes I can and I have now manually deleted the folders. Also emptied recycle bin.

I actually witnessed the infection propagating itself in the following location this morning. It created an application file called utiyudbeg with the google chrome logo next to it in the following location: C:\Users\USERNAME\AppData\LocalLow\Adobe\dutqmvr\Local\Google\Chrome\User Data

I guess it must replicate and hide to avoid detection and then explodes at a later time.

I've got nothing showing in task manager right now. I will shut down and reboot tonight after I get some things done. I will follow up and keep you posted if anything tries to reinfect or if it replicates once again after reboot.

Right now I owe you beer $.

Thank you.
ML
