Hello, I've used Rootkit Hacker Defender on my computer, and i've found : Wrong Services : *SV: Serv-U (Serv-U FTP Server) PATH: c:\winnt\system32\winmgnt.exe *SV: tcp-ip (tcp-ip FTP Server) PATH: c:\winnt\system32\clspack32.exe *SV: DS1410D (DS1410D) PATH: SYSTEM32\drivers\DS1410D.SYS
And : -Searching for Rootkit Modules........ ( Found: 0 Suspicious modules ) -Trying to detect hxdef with TCP data..( Found: 1 running rootkits) ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- *ROOTKIT HACKER DEFENDER v1.0.0 IS INSTALLED IN YOUR HOST. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- -Searching for hxdef hooks............ ( Found: 1 running rootkits) ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- *ROOTKIT HACKER DEFENDER >= v0.82 FOUND. Path not available
So ... i've been (filtered)... I have disabled the three services, but i can't find the .exe, as i think, they have been hidden.
One of my friend has used Superscan, and he said to me that port 6600 and 16000 were opened. I've tried fport, and Opports but no port opened...
I've tried Ethereal, and i've seen that 6600 was used to connect and ircbot, like rbot to ssl irc, but i can't find any program name...
I need help... I think there is another way than to put some Live CD and boot on it...
Sorry for my english... Thanks !

kill can't kill a services !!! And if you don't know hacker defender rootkit, you can't find processes hidden by rootkit...

with Dameware NT Utilities the HXDEF Service isn't hidden. So you can remove the service. Good luck!

rkdetector is the tool he used to look for a rootkit. neo, as already said use Dameware NT Utilities to look for non common services. Stop and remove them. when you try to stop the rootkit you will get a massage like "service doesnt respond to controll functions" after some time. thats fine, just wait a few minutes and after that use fport to see the servu and the rest of the programs running.

As it's been said, use Dameware, I once "infected" a friend comp with hxdef by mistake, and I had to use that to remove it totally

there is another way to clean your system from hxdef-rootkit:
Boot windows into Rescue mode, do one of the following:
Insert the Windows OS Installation CD into the Drive. Boot from the CD Choose 'R' to enter the Rescue Console Choose the Windows installation you want to Clean from the list presented to you. Enter the Administrator Password.
Once in the recovery console, you have a few commands for this, including:
listsvc - lists services that can be enabled or disabled enable <servicename> <start-type> - enables a service, with a service type,
disable <servicename> - disables a service, but prints out the previous start-type, which should be recorded in case you need to re-enable the service.
Rkdetect is a little anomaly detection tool which can find services hidden by generic Windows rootkits like Hacker Defender.
Tool very simply. It enumerates services on remote computer through WMI (user level) and Services Control Manager (kernel level), compare result and display difference. In this way we can find hidden services which usual used to start rootkit. Similar approach can be used to enumerate processes, files, registry keys and anything that rootkits can to hide.
Tool consists from VBScript file rkdetect.vbs and sc.exe utility. Sc.exe it's standard Windows tool to work with SCM which you can find on any Windows Box with W2K3.
Usage: 1. Unzip archive. 2. If you don't trust me (I hope you don't :-), copy sc.exe (c:\WINDOWS\system32\sc.exe in my case) from Windows folder to the rkdetect folder. 3. Change dir to rkdetect folder. 4. Start it:
Query services by WMI... Detected 79 services Query services by SC... Detected 80 services Finding hidden services...
Possible rootkit found: HXD Service 100 Done
C:\detector>
Thanks for your attention and sorry for my English.

If you used hxdef on yourself like you said you did, i don't see how hard it is to kill. you ran the file so you know what directory it is in and the name of the .exe and service name, go to cmd in that dir and type hxdef.exe -:uninstall, and usekill.exe to kill the specific.exe use hct.exe or xnet.exe to remove the service. if you hid the rootkit.exe file in the .ini then it is alot harder to remove.

hxdef.exe -:uninstall has been mentioned, but I think if you grab a new hxdef and run that command I *believe* it will remove the actual rootkit...If not turn onfile/print sharing and connect to yourself with dameware, all files/services will be visible then...

Thanks for all responses but : when i had post this i had used rkdetector, patchfinder 2 without any success, Opports, fport, dameware, without seeing any suspected services, i have killed this :
but rootkit is here . i've tried hxdef... :uninstall etc... I've read how to mod hxdef to be undetectable, i've compiled mine but my KAV detects it, and not those which is installed.

use dameware from a remote machine to see the hidden services this will work in any case if you really find no strange service there is no rootkit installed

... or run your PC in "Safe Mode" and search for Rootkit files and Services.

hxdef infects safe mode as well so no use to try that there are some good programs out there to remove rootkits

if I only know hxdef's process name,like hxdef.exe,but I don't know his service name,how can I remove the hxdef rootkit? if I know service name,I can "net stop servicename" to stop the rootkit,but no like this tools to find the hide service name now.
