I was hit by a slew of Java Script Exploits as well as Trojans this past week

Hello:

On 7/10/2012, my desktop machine got hit by a slew of Virus and Trojans which even though removed, they are impacting the use of my computer. Information below.

First 7.10/2012 Trojan win32/Tibs.IT Severe Threat detected by Microsoft security essentials and Quarantined Second 7/11/2012 0332 Trojan Win32/Tibs.It Severe Threat ditto ditto ditto and Quarantined Third 7/15/2012 ExploitJava/CVE-2012-0507.CG SEVERE THREAT AND QUARANTINED BY MSE. Fourth 7/15/2012 Exploit:Java/CVE-2012-1723.F SEVERE THREAT AND QUARANTINED MY MSE.

Since I have run Avast, it has not picked up on any of these in my system, but the damage seems to be done and wonder how I can reverse it? If I were to do a system restore before any of this ever happened would I be able to fix my machine myself. I know that the registry has been corrupted and that Microsoft has an "autoruns" program that they charge 100 bucks to run. Do you know of any place where I could obtain a similar program so that I can do this myself. I do know that in "autoruns" the YELLOW registry items need to be deleted. That being said can you help me please? I don't want to have to go through reformatting everything and starting all over :(. Days it takes and I end up losing a lot of stuff in the process. Thank you.

in addition, according to Avast Internet Security Report, look what sections of my computer are blocked or disabled from scanning.

Can anyone help me with this? This trojan is in my email and programs and causing havoc everywhere. So far, I see how it works by disabling the main sections of the computer that are need to be scanned to get rid of it. How can I fix this?

Thanks.

Hi,

It would also be a good idea to post in a dedicated security forum. You can also post there regarding malware removal live USB/CDs which would be sufficient and useful in a lot of situations:

Please also note that Autoruns is a free program.
