• Signatures for Zeus Bot

  Hello

  Let me know what signature must be activated for detect a Bot of Zeus activity? I need to create a new signature or there is any signature by default available.

  Thank you

  Kiran

  Hi Kiran,

  There is no signature integrated to detect Botnet Zeus attacks because they are very versatile.

  If you have one, the best thing to do is take a snapshot of the malicious if possible traffic and to create a personalized signature based on common criteria, you will find in all the attacks.

  Kind regards

• IM see: empty in my address bar for a second or two before going to a web page, it does not occur every time so I don't know what to think about this, is this a virus?

  Subject: Blank appear sometimes for a few seconds in the address bar, scanned computer with Zone Alarm Anti Virus - Spy Bot - Super Anti Spyware all found nothing. Sometimes the browser hesitates for 5-10 seconds before going to a page, I wonder if its related to the About: Blank

  It's probably nothing to worry about. Is that a name firefox uses blank pages.

• Virus or Trojan or something else that will activate the guest account?

  My computer is very slow, and every time I wake it from sleep I notice that the guest account has been enabled.  So I go into Control Panel and then users and groups and disable the guest account unblocking of the user and groups with my password, remove the check mark beside guest account and lock user accounts.  However, even if I am away from my computer, the check mark next to guest account gets back and the guest account enabled.

  Nobody else uses my computer.  Does anyone know of a Virus, Trojan, Bot, or anything else that might be my computer hijacking.  I have ClamXav, but nothing was found after several scans.  Help please.

  It is not a virus. Viruses don't do that sort of thing.

  Earlier, I think I've found that putting on find my Mac would automatically allow the guest account. Not sure if this is still true today. You can check by turning off to find my Mac, disable the guest account and then verify.

• Safari locked Zeus virus

  Should I be worried? Today, while trying to go to the Gmail site this (see photo) came on the screen and I had to do a closed hard.

  The message says windows detected that? Is the Zeus on the Mac virus.

  Older (about 5-6 years) iMac, running OSX 10.7.5 and Safari 6.1.6

  

  It's a scam. Do not call the number.

  If the pop-up recharge, force quit Safari (command option/alt - esc) and reopen it with the SHIFT key is pressed. If this does not work, disconnect from the Internet, go to Safari/history and delete the Web site. Quit and reopen with the SHIFT key is pressed.

• How can I know for sure if I do or do not have virus Zeus?

  I am running windows 7 ultimate and I am currently on the updates. I clicked on a link on facebook to see photos from a friend. He opened with undesirable for the thread and nothing showed. I closed it. Immediately I received a notice of default mailer for some obsolete addresses. I searched Snopes.com top 25 and found that it the Zeus virus delivery method. I never scan available and it was OK. I went to microsoft and download the scan and analysis tool and it was ok. How can I be sure that I do not have it?

  Hi James,

  1. what browser did you use to access Facebook?

  2. what security software you used for the virus scan?

  I suggest you analyze your computer by using Windows Defender in offline mode. Windows Defender offline can help eliminate hard to find malicious and potentially unwanted programs using definitions that recognize the threats. Definitions are files that provide an encyclopedia of potential software threats. Armed with definition files, Windows Defender in offline mode can detect malicious and potentially unwanted software and then inform you of the risks.

  Note: There could be a loss of data while performing a mode offline scan using Windows Defender to remove viruses as appropriate.

• can or is there something that can help me to remove the adware; virus win32/open candy from my computer?

  There are a lot of things going on in my computer right now, worries me to death, one is called an adware: win32/open candy I guess than the virus. And it is a small thing, but still worry thaat essentials of microsoft has removed only one of them. I also ran the microsoft Scanner and it has not picked up and was not deleted. And I want to change my password to something a little more decent right now. I try to start over all of mine from scratch, because I learned from microsoft a lot what they taught me. But I need a clean start. I need to do something of everything again. I don't want anyone to know who I'm not. I'm afraid that now. I would like to make a few settings that I feel I have to now change hotmail.com and facebook.com and with yahoo.com as well. But I have to be able to do this. I realize that this will be an alias. But considering what I had to go through last month, and even now, I think it would be much better for me.

• boot sector virus

  I had a bug in my boot sector, it restarts my system whenever the Windows startup screen appears. I tried a repair install, but no luck... Does anyone know a way for me to reach my office without a complete install? I don't want to lose all my data. I'm not BACK, but I can get a command prompt with the system recovery tool.

  If anyone knows any tips, let me know.

  Thx again for the advise... Oh, and can you recommend a protection software to prevent that is happning again? So many anti-malware there programs, & most are useless (if it's not dangerous). I worked with Spybot & AdAware for analysis & Adwatch as a background monitor, but they is not so great. I have Kaspersky, strictly for antivirus, but they always want more money for upgrades of definition... Just Lookin ' for ideas, I don't want to start this mess.

  Forums freakin ' rock.

  I'm glad that you were able to make progress and improvements. Some malware, including viruses, can be very stubborn to remove. Given the extent of malware detected on your computer, that I'd like to see a Hijack This log file. Unfortunately, these files of type logs are not allowed on this forum. However, you can create an account on the free forum on the link below and post the log file in the Virus/Malware forum and I'll have a peek. The forum is free.

  Spybot has been a pretty good scan. I've personally never had much faith in Ad-Aware. Malwarebytes and SuperAntiSpyware set standards these days at the malware scanners. Fortunately, in these times of economic stress, each have free versions.

  Kapersky is certainly a good anti-virus software, but, as you noted, taxes can start to add up. I chose the free version of Avast 5.0. Actually, I would almost bet that if you have installed Avast and completed a scan at startup you would find additional malware. Be aware that you can not have Avast and installed simultaneously Kapersky. This applies even if it is temporary.

  Avast Free Antivirus - downloads of free software and software reviews - CNET Download.com

  No matter what anit-virus software you choose. None have a 100% detection rate. Therefore, stay free malware requires a multi-layered approach. This means a good antivirus, a couple good malware scanner, a secure browser with the appropriate like AdBlock Plus, Better Privacy, ad - ons advise site MyWOT and, perhaps the most important ingredient, sound the user discretion. More about browsers and ad - ons available can be found on the link below.

• Remove virus horse of Trojan Generic10 HAI

  Scanned computer and have 2 infected RAR files cannot be sent to Virus Vault because the size exceeds the limit. How can I get rid of this infection? Not particularly computer savvy with paths etc means simple.

  The best approach for a very infected PC
  is a 'Clean Install' you can never be 100% certain that every last bit of the infections have been removed.

  That said if you have time and want to see how you can go to eliminate viruses, malware and bots then read on.

  Start by reading the following information of the Virus removal: (you must first install and run MalwareBytes)

  For me on a PC friends who had more than 60 infections and there is no CD of restoration and the key code has been lost, the article above "Malware Bytes", "AVG Free" and Norton NIS 2010 has been around.

  NIS 2011 trial software:

  (Note: the trial download Norton NIS requires a credit card, read the terms 'Opt Out' before you start)
  In addition, a second pass using Malware Bytes and NIS seems to have removed all infections.
