suspicious executable at hard drive root


thrash-boy

Recommended Posts

well i opened my computer and opened my hard drive today, and just as i was looking for program files folder, i noticed a very strange exe file. Under it (because im in tiles view it showed the company beklow the file name) it says Mooky Da KiD. as soon as i saw that weird name i googled it and all the results turned out to be botnet related things. I also found this myspace.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I scanned the file with up-to-date AVG free and it turned out ok apparently.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Here are more file information form the version tab when you right click t and select properties:

End of file - 9982 bytes[/hide]

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

The name of the exe is 784hjdfhjsf[Caution: ExecutableFile]

 

 

 

It was created/last modified on Friday, October 24th (4 days ago)

 

 

 

It was last accessed today, but that might be because i accessed the properties of it

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

The files icon is also a bit odd. it look likes a simple command prompt window, but is slopped down to the right, and the bar at the top is a light cyan/teal color. the centre of the window is white with no writing.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Interesting there is also a rar file in my hard drives root, with a name hard to say here due to the censors.

 

 

 

the first part is the common f word, in lower case, often used to refer to people reproducing

 

 

 

immediately following that is 'l8o' with the ' bits

 

 

 

and finally a dot and then exe

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I haven't touched either file yet, and ill put them in a zip file and then upload them somewhere incase anyone wants to look at the actual files.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

----

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

anyway i want to know if my connection is being used to help perform ddos attacks (seeing as googling the files company name returned alot of botnet results), or if im sending spam mail to people or anything like that.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

thanks for all the help when it comes!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

EDIT: fixed a few typos

i removed files from the root of my drive and put them in a new folder.

 

 

 

i searched a bit more on that rar file, and found this: http://www.prevx.com/filenames/42359096 ... 2EEXE.html

 

 

 

doesnt look to good :(

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

so what i tried was extracting the rar file to check the file sizes with the sizes mentioned on that site. i extracted with winRar and 2 files came out, [F-word]l8o[Caution: ExecutableFile] and [F-word]lo[Caution: ExecutableFile] (change f word for real thing and remove brackets)

 

 

 

i didnt get a chance to check the file size because avg immediately kicked (atleast i know its working lol) letting me know they were threats:

 

 

 

threatsdetectedaj2.th.png

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

here is a link to a rar file containing the original exe file i was worried about, from Mooky Da KiD:

 

 

 

CAUTION: ONLY DOWNLOAD THE BELOW FILE IF YOU KNOW WHAT YOUR DOING! IT COULD CONTAIN MALICIOUS STUFF!

 

 

 

[hide=If your sure, click here!]http://www.savefile.com/files/1862714[/hide]

 

 

 

im not sure if i should post it here if i suspect it of being a botnet thing, but ill post it anyway, with a big red warning label, just incase someone who knows what there doing can get some info from it. mods remove it if you wish

ok another update, still haven't solved problem, just found more problems! :roll:

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

i downloaded the prevx csi from the link i posted last or first post from the website that had details on the first exe i found. i ran a scan and it found an item that it said was malicious, located in C:/windows/system32 (not good :( )

 

 

 

its called uzcpgs[Caution: ExecutableFile], is 362,636 bytes in size (not size on disc whatever that means)

 

 

 

it was created Friday, September something 2004, and was modified in Monday april 14th 2008.

 

 

 

the problem is i reinstalled windows completely with the Packard bell recovery program about a month ago, so it must have been in the manufactures (hp) package.

 

 

 

its a hidden file and cant be deleted because it says its in use.

 

 

 

Im not going to try delete it in safe mode yet because of when it was created.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

i just relised i havnt posted any system specs lol. im on win xp media center 2005 edition.

 

 

 

i have to go now but ill be back later to post more details and see if nayones found a solution!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

thanks

Nice, I'm not the only one with Media Center Edition here lol.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

As for the Hijackthis log, I'm very not sure about it, but some lines that look suspicious to me:

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

[hide=]The following 3 are for whatever epgSteam.net is.

 

 

 

C:\Program Files\epgStream.net\wmcGuideServiceProxy\wmcGuideServiceProxyHost[Caution: ExecutableFile]

C:\Program Files\epgStream.net\wmcGuideServiceProxy\wmcGuideServiceProxy[Caution: ExecutableFile]

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Still not sure, but now on something I think more serious:

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

C:\WINDOWS\system32\uzcpgs[Caution: ExecutableFile]

O23 - Service: getPlus® Helper - NOS Microsystems Ltd. - C:\Program Files\NOS\bin\getPlus_HelperSvc[Caution: ExecutableFile] < first time I see this one

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Again, whateveer epgStream.net is

Again, wait for someone to confirm these before doing anything, I'm not too savvy in the HJT logs thing, but I try to help and learn with them.

thanks for the help guys.

 

 

 

epgStream.net (epg = 'electronic program guide' i think) is related what i use to download the media center guide (like a tv guide that tells you what shows are on) information. Here in australia you have to use a 3rd party program like that because there are laws that prevent Microsoft hosting the guide information on there website or something, so you have to use something else.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

ill do another virus scan and see if anything comes up

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

EDIT: looked into that other file you found in the hijackthis log and its fine:

 

 

 

-23382.html]http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/startup ... 23382.html

 

 

 

aperently its an adobe product update checker thats ment to run on startup.

(Pardon my offside comment here... but that image really stuns me. :o ...)

 

 

 

Use an online scanner to scan your computer, Kaspersky knows that trojan now so you can use it.

Whoa... If that online thing says that their copy of NOD32 didn't find anything, but we know that something is there due to at least 3 other scanners, then I'm reasonably sure that site does not have their NOD32 setup and configured correctly. Especially since I've seen NOD32 stop new viruses before my eyes. This would tend to make me trust that online scanner much less. :(

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

(BTW, as for that "uzcpgs[Caution: ExecutableFile]" thing, I think Clare will be the one who knows what's up.)

NOD32 isn't the be all and end all of AV programs <<<Insult removed>>>
Wow... Could have gone all day without that kind of language. :-#

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

BTW, I'm not trying to be all dogmatic, like as if it were a "be all, end all"... What I'm trying to point out, however, is that if their setup were correct, then NOD32 should find whatever malware is present. That's all I'm trying to point out and make clear note of. :geek:

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Thanks for jumping way off the deep end over something that was just a bit stunning to my eyes, SilverSword. I'm really not as bad/awful/wacko as you may think I am, and I never will be... :roll:

Just because NOD32 doesn't detect it doesn't make it unreliable. No anti-malware program has a 100% detection rate. Never has done and I'd give it a 99.99% chance that it never will do.

No Doubt, NOD32 wont catch everything, nothing will.

"Any people anywhere, being inclined and having the power, have the right to rise up, and shake off the existing government, and form a new one that suits them better. This is a most valuable - a most sacred right - a right, which we hope and believe, is to liberate the world."

i downloaded and installed avira av free and done a scan, it found about 4 things. 2 or 3 were the files i already knew about that i had copied to my desktop and archived to upload in that post earlier, but 1 or 2 of them were things that either got there after my last avg scan (a bit over a week) or avg never picked up.

 

after i rebooted today it picked up the uzcpgs[Caution: Executable File] thing as i was logging on, and seems to have removed it nicely.

 

 

 

hopefully it should be all good now. thanks for your help guys
