Hi all,

I have a problem with my Sql Server 2000 server. A malware captured the 1433
port when we restarted the SQL Server service. Now we have some users (that
uses TCP/IP to connect to the server instead named pipes) that can not
access to the server. The server is mission critical, can not be reset until
midnight to eliminate the virus. We want to kill the malware process but we
can not get the process id of the malware. We tryed with fport last version
downloaded from Foundstone but it does't lists the 1433 port as being in
use. But netstat -an clearly shows the 1433 port is listening. The Sql
Server Log says it could not be binded to 1433. So is it possible fport
fails to detect a process? Which other way can I use to detect the process
id of the malware apart of fport?

Thanks in advance
Sammy

Download MULTI_AV.EXE from the URL --
http://www.ik-cs.com/programs/virtools/Multi_AV.exe

It is a self-extracting ZIP file that contains the Kixtart Script Interpreter {
http://kixtart.org Kixtart is CareWare } 4 batch files, 6 Kixtart scripts, one
Link
(.LNK) file, a PDF instruction file and two utilities; UNZIP.EXE and WGET.EXE.
It will
simplify the process of using; Sophos, Trend, Kasperski and McAfee Anti Virus
Command Line
Scanners to
remove viruses, Trojans and various other malware.

C:\AV-CLS\StartMenu.BAT -- { or Double-click on 'Start Menu' in C:\AV-CLS}
This will bring up the initial menu of choices and should be executed in Normal
Mode. This
way all the components can be downloaded from each AV vendor’s web site. The
choices are;
Sophos, Trend, McAfee, Kaspersky, Exit this menu and Reboot the PC.

You can choose to go to each menu item and just download the needed files or you
can
download the files and perform a scan in Normal Mode. Once you have downloaded
the files
needed for each scanner you want to use, you should reboot the PC into Safe Mode
[F8 key
during boot] and re-run the menu again and choose which scanner you want to run
in Safe
Mode. It is suggested to run the scanners in both Safe Mode and Normal Mode.

When the menu is displayed hitting 'H' or 'h' will bring up a more comprehensive
PDF help
file.

To use this utility, perform the following...
Execute; Multi_AV.exe { Note: You must use the default folder C:\AV-CLS }
Choose; Unzip
Choose; Close

Execute; C:\AV-CLS\StartMenu.BAT
{ or Double-click on 'Start Menu' in C:\AV-CLS }

NOTE: You may have to disable your software FireWall or allow WGET.EXE to go
through your
FireWall to allow it to download the needed AV vendor related files.

* * * Please report back your results * * *

Try Process Explorer from SysInternals. In the properties of each process is
a page for tcp/ip info that will show if any port is used. TCPView may also
be helpful but Process Explorer is the king of process identification. You
also have the option to kill the process or process tree though that does
not work all the time. Also check your services as sometimes malware will
install as a service that you could try to stop/disable. --- Steve
