Nothing can protect you against bad behavior like willingly downloading and executing an exe.

Perhaps I should clarify.

I have no idea where the original Trojan on my PC came from. I'll list what happened once they got into my laptop.

They got into teamviewer.

they then went to
http://69.31.136.5/defaults/sendspace-pop.html
then went
http://aff.trafficjmp.com/geo/preset/162/1/0/0
Then went to some of my bookmarks
then went to
https://www.sendspace.com/file/cwyxow
which downloaded said trojan.

at about the same time they went to my website's provider and uploaded via FTP

A few minutes ago, our anti-virus scanner reported that a malicious file has
been uploaded to your 1&1 webspace.
WARNING thebitcoinmuseum.com/coinwidget/404.php WARNING
They told me that it came from IP 119.81.27.176

That's all I have so far...

This basically means that the hacker is Spanish, or at least speaks spanish. We're onto something.
If we can get some IPs that would be useful.
Not particularly, there is other Spanish speaking countries.
It would help greatly to know where is the file originated from. Link/forum/email etc.

Correct me if I am wrong but svchost.exe is actually a windows file.

You have mentioned windows defender before and I am pretty sure that windows defender uses svchost.exe

Perhaps it was infected?

The original service host (svchost) file is legit and it's signed by microsoft. and to make malicious files less suspicious hackers sometimes rename their files to match legit ones. So if you see it outside C:\Windows\System32 then that's not the real one.

In this case svchost acts like an archive file (zip or rar) and it's self extracting 3 files: dialected.exe, file.bin, and "Nuevo imagen de mapa de bits.bmp"
"Nuevo imagen de mapa de bits" is the translation of "New bitmap image" in spanish.

I am not sure the dialected.exe file is malicious, it's tagged by two antivirus engines but i can't analyze it, it keeps crashing inside the virtual machine.

So could this be a weakness on windows defender?
Not being able to block malicious software?
Windows defender doesn't protect you from all bad things http://thenextweb.com/microsoft/2012/11/09/windows-8-protected-from-85-of-malware-detected-in-the-past-six-months-right-out-the-box/
And that's not only windows defender, you shouldn't rely on anti-virus software to fully protect you anyway, they do some protection but it's not 100% secure.
The senior vice president for information security of Symantec (who make Norton antivirus) said that antivirus is dead, it's not as good as it used to be, antivirus did get better but so did the malicious hackers.

Then transferred a file that I've identified as a Trojan. I think I may have tracked it on to the secure pc.
I am sorry for your loss.

And if you can upload and send me that file via PM i could know who is behind that hack.

Here is a link to the file
WARNING! TROJAN! WARNING! TROJAN! WARNING! TROJAN!

Oh yeah.  Forgot to add that part too.  No stress on timeline getting it back here either Smiley

I would be able to provide you with a loan of 0.50 btc
Since these are special circumstances, you can take as much time as you want to pay me back, and I do not want any interest.

I am moving some coins right now, but when everything is confirmed, I will send the 0.50 btc to you.

Edit: I will send when you confirm this is ok for you.

Insert sappy, girly quote here....

Thank you guys, you both rock  Grin
