NOD32 newheur_pe trojan?

[Guest]

[budking]

ok i noticed the other day that i somehow stumbled upon a virus of some sort. a process was running and saying it had created an error and must close every minuet or so. the process was called lssmon.exe. when i opened my task manager i noticed duplicates of another similar porcess called lsassmrg.exe under my user name and one process named lsass.exe in my system files ( i dunno if this last process is related) anyway i did a search for the two files lssmon and lsassmrg and found 2 files for each so i ended all the processes and deleted the files. lssmon is gone now for good but i still have lsassmrg and lsass files on my computer i dunno if their windows files or part of the virus. at this point i decided to get NOD32 and spybot S&D and glary registry repair and a-squared. unfortunately all these haven't been able to do anything with the exception of EOD32 it found files and quarantined them. including my firefox.exe and iexplorer.exe. it said all the files were unknown newheur_pe virus. all it does is quarantine them and has no fix. i restored firefox so i can get to you guys but when i open a firefox session i get this message : D:\WINDOWS\system32\spool.exe. i dunno if that's the root of all this or what. i cant find it at all. ive tried registry repairs and spyware removers nothing does it and i cant find the files for this thing on my own. if you guys could help that would be great. i did download hijack this if that would be any help to you guys although i dunno how to use it as im not familiar with it at all. any help or insight would be greatly appreciated.

This is from Rednose (one of the forum members):

I found this about the 04 items CSRLT.EXE and MSBLT.EXE :

http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/forums/index.php?s=2871051781008610adc97fa3973685f7&showtopic=168052&st=0&p=937978&#entry937978

It seems that SAS can remove them Smiley

And ofcource you can fix the 2 dead 02 items Wink

Thx Red!
