Computer getting all messed up!

Started messing up on April 1st (weird huh?) Really hope its not that Conflicker shit

I'll keep it point form..

- Internet slower than usual.
- Whenever I try going on a anti-virus website (AVG/Norton/etc.) The link gets redirected to some random ass link. Because of this.. my Anti-Virus/Spyware programs can't update anymore.
- Google search results also gets redirected to random links sometimes.
- Can't turn on Windows Firewall sometimes.
- Warcraft 3 crashes everytime a game starts.
- Firefox crashes every few minutes.
- I get signed out of MSN every few minutes.

There are more problems but can't think right now.. I'll update the list later.

I ran 3 scans: Malwarebytes, AVG and NOD32. Still no luck.. Might give it another scan tomorrow.

Any help and information is appreciated. Thanks!

"R1 - HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Int ernet Settings,ProxyOverride = *.local"

this line jumps out at me but don't know what it means

did you try scanning in SAFE mode?

Just finished scanning my computer with AVG and NOD32 in safe mode. Found a trojan horse but computer still acting the same. Malwarebytes stopped working for some reason.. Gotta reinstall it.

sounds like the conflicker virus to me...

Symptoms
Account lockout policies being reset automatically.
Certain Microsoft Windows services such as Automatic Updates, Background Intelligent Transfer Service (BITS), Windows Defender and Error Reporting Services disabled.
Domain controllers responding slowly to client requests.
Congestion on local area networks.
Web sites related to antivirus software or the Windows Update service becoming inaccessible.

yah at this point cut your losses and backup critical files and do a clean sweep. it is faster than hunting this little bitch down. not as satisfying, but effective.

That line is probably for Bypass proxy when the resource is on the local netowrk. (It's in your Internet Options in IE/Connections/LAN Settings/Proxy Server.

It's not the issue here.

If anything, I think it's these two lines:
O4 - HKUS\S-1-5-19\..\Run: [pibusiweje] Rundll32.exe "CWINDOWS\system32\vokuharo.dll",s (User 'LOCAL SERVICE')
O4 - HKUS\S-1-5-20\..\Run: [pibusiweje] Rundll32.exe "CWINDOWS\system32\vokuharo.dll",s (User 'NETWORK SERVICE')

However, they look like they are tied to specific user logins (the HKUS which is the HKEY_USERS hive) so it may happen only to certain people.

Try renaming that file vokuharo.dll (may need to boot up to safe mode to do it if the file is in use), and then restart to see if that helps.

You have a lot of stuff in your Run key. Must take you forever to boot up that machine...

+1 on Conficker. I'd say play it safe and reformat.
