Trojan?

« on: November 26, 2001, 08:40:00 PM »

Recieved a mail today from someone i dont know with an attachment named setupdoc.scr and a text file called Att oooo2.txt.
the text file was o byte and the setup file was something about 100 kb. Scanned it with no results and checked it with a Trojan seeker.

When i closed down the machine i get an error beep same wnen i start it.

If i connect to internet Kernel 32 says it wants to go enjoy itself on the net.This warning is given to me by Zone alarm.Now Kernel 32 never wanted to amuse itself on the net before so im suspicious.........

Reformat or not thats the question.

Found that kernel 32 has been modified at the exact time that this bloody mail arrived.

Coincidence?

Going for a reformat tonight.

See you`all tomorrow.
Hope i havent sent this bloody thing to anyone of you.Zone alarm asked for permission for Kerbel 32 to acess the net but i denied that so.....

Blue get the latest virus defenitions for your scanner and KEEP them updated.

Kernel 32 is used by many trojans and that is DEFINATELLY a sign that you have been infectred with one.

There was no need for reformat however next time wait till i see yer post hehe. Togeather we can fix any nasty bud

Look most trojans you will be able to dinf here

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\RunServices Under that registry most trojans will add a key there.

So if your suspicios check there first

Hope ya be ok let us know how it went.

Blue, sounds like the Badlands. I got hit with one this morning, and I'm hearing it's spreading very quickly. Mine didn't execute though. However, Mcafee didn't catch it, though they claim it can. I put another topic here to that effect. If you reformat, you should be okay. If you clean it and you're running ME, don't forget the _restore folder!
