Vundo (trojan.vundo.h) On Xp And External Hard Drive


Recommended Posts

Hi everyone, this is my first post, thanks for reading.

My new HP laptop runs Windows XP 32 bit. I have repeatedly contracted virtumonde and vundo in the past 6 months, and in past episodes I have used the factory-system restore CD to reset my hard drive and system settings, thereby erasing the virus.

But earlier this week, I ended up with Vundo again. I have used Avira, Spybot, and Malwarebytes, but as I've learned through experience, they delete instances of vundo, but do not remove the root cause. Malwarebytes pulls up 7 files on each run, each named Trojan.Vundo.H or Trojan.Vundo.BOH or Trojan.Vundo

This episode seems to be more complicated than earlier occasions. After performing a full restore, and before reloading software onto my machine, I plugged in my external hard drive - then Vundo infected my system again. It is completely impossible for me to reformat my external hard drive, as I have legally binding and career crucial documents on the external hard drive. I have run those programs on the external hard drive as well, and it does discover Malware files.

If it might help, I have a mac computer as well, so if there is any way to run an antivirus program from the mac to clean the external hard drive, I can do that.

Any help you can offer would be astoundingly appreciated. Best, Bill

With the external unplugged, I just ran HijackThis, pasted below.

I also ran Malwarebytes, and have pasted that log below as well
