HELP - Vundo lsass Removal

[gjt86]

A computer I am fixing has the Vundo or MS Juan virus, according to sources it seems to have embedded itself in lsass.exe since upon startup I receive several DLL errors (halojoge.dll) and I receive lsass.exe is not a valid windows image. SuperAntiSpyware and AVG seem to detect it but does nothing, I cannot restore to a previous point either. I have included a Hijack This log, and any help would be appreciated, I would love to remove this without having to reinstall Windows. Is this possible? Thanks in advance.

I got some of it removed, but malwarebytes isnt detecting it. However, SuperAntiSpyware is. Any help would be appreciated as stated, I gotta head to bed now and will check when I get off work. Thanks.

Try the scans in safe mode as it starts up with the OS. The dll errors are usually because the malware has been wounded and the malicious dll files have been removed, but not their pointers.

FIX the lines listed below with HJT:

O20 - AppInit_DLLs: nizaliko.dll c:\windows\system32\halojoge.dll

O21 - SSODL: befinofid - {c93f58ef-609b-486b-b36f-444f394ac845} - c:\windows\system32\henefepe.dll (file missing)

O22 - SharedTaskScheduler: mujuzedij - {c93f58ef-609b-486b-b36f-444f394ac845} - c:\windows\system32\henefepe.dll (file missing)

O22 - SharedTaskScheduler: kupuhivus - {9c895b71-09fd-4f46-bbd6-d7f96e30ce86} - c:\windows\system32\halojoge.dll (file missing)

Be sure to carefully make the selections.

Unfortunately, as good as HJT is, Vundo, Virtumonde, MS Juan and other variants have been coded to hide alot of their processes from HijackThis. The program needs to be renamed during the download process and again during the install. You shouldn't need to run HJT again, just the SAS and MBAM scans in safe mode. Restart, update then run again.
