Maybe you know, maybe you don't, but I made a small removaltool (haxifx) to delete haxdoor and goldun infections.
http://users.telenet.be/marcvn/tools/haxfix.exehttp://download.bleepingcomputer.com/marckie/haxfix.exeWhen you start haxfix, you will get a menu with 4 options.
Option 1: Make logfileIf you use haxfix, always make a log file first.
The logfile is showing all services, safeboot services and notify keys, that are matching with the current haxdoor/goldun variants.
Haxfix checks for known SSDOL keys related to goldun.
Haxfix also checks if iexplore.exe is infected with a (known) goldunvariant. If so, it looks for a clean alternative in the dllcache or the tempfolder.
Catchme.exe has been integrated in haxfix since version 4.43. (thank You Gmer)
The logfile produced by Catchme, will be analysed by haxfix for matching haxdoor- or goldunvariants.
Option 2: Run auto fix.Option 2 deletes all haxdoor-notify keys that are found when one, or more then one, matching service/safeboot service is present.
You can use option 2 if the notify keys that are found, are related to haxdooor or goldun.
- If there is a notify key (xxxx) and the letters xxxx are found between the matching services or matching safebootservices, haxfix deletes them
- If there is an unknown notify key or a legit notify key (xxxx) in the logfile, and there are no matching services/safeboot services (xxxx), haxfix will not delete the keys
- If there is an unknown notify key or a legit notify key in the haxdoor-logfile and a matching service, don't run option 2 (auto fix) but use the manual fix (option 3) to add the key(s) manually.
- All known goldunvariants will be deleted with option 2.
- If ieplore.exe is infected, haxfix can fix this without reboot.
Option 3: Run manual fixThis gives you the possibilty to add one, or if necessary more then one haxdoor key.
When you start option 3, you 'll get a message:
echo Insert the haxdoorkey,
and then press Enter:
Insert the haxdoorkey without the numbers. (Ex: avpe, xtpt, fuxx,...)
When this is a valid choice (there is a check for the services/safeboot services), the key will be added to delete.
Next you have the possibilty to add a new key: Yes (press Y) or No (press N)
When do we use option 3?
Use option 3 if there are:
- unknown or legit notify keys with related services in the haxlog.txt file.
- no notify keys are found, but there are haxdoor related services / safeboot services. (be careful, don't add legit ones, because after reboot they are all gone.)
If you use option 3 to delete a haxdoorvariant, and one or more goldunvariants are present too, all infection will be deleted.
Option 4: Run unknow fix.The logfile produced by Catchme will be analysed by haxfix for hax- or goldunvariants.
If a match is found, you can delete them by using option 4 - remove unknown.
(this only works with the variants that uses notify and services regkeys.)
Variants that are not recognized by haxfix, but are detected by catchme, can now be deleted with haxfix.
A few remarks:If you see this in the logfile: registrysettings failed
use this command:
%systemdrive%\haxfix.exe /resetIf you don't get a logfile after reboot:
use this command:
%systemdrive%\haxfix.exe /afterMore information about the tool you can find on my website (or on the security boards).
