Trojan encoder

Hello

I use my macbook pro (yosemite 10.10.5 OSX) for a few years now with no problems, but today, I did a virus scan (I use the Dr. Web light free on the app store) and he came to a double threat Trojan encoder 4860 to my system. I did as advised by the software and neutralized them both.

Then I went to the finder and removed a few items that could be linked to the source of the threat (I'm guessing, it was sent via an email or attachment).

Is this enough? Is my computer in danger?

Can someone please advise? I took a print of the virus message screen if that helps.

Thank you very much!

Cedric

1. There is no anti-malware software can detect 100% of malware out there.

2. There is no anti-malware can detect anything by targeting the Mac because it

is no Mac malware in the wild and therefore, no "signatures" to detect.

3. the best way to prevent breaches the most is for you as the user is aware that

the most successful malware attacks rely on sophisticated social engineering

techniques preying on human greed, * and fear.

4 Internet pop-up windows telling the FBI, NSA, Microsoft, your ISP has detected malware on

your computer is designed to trick you into installing their malware thinking it's a

protection against malware.

5. some of the anti-malware market products are worse than malware

go where they are supposed to protect you.

6. be careful where you go on the internet.

7. don't download anything from sites, you know are safe.

8 avoid links that you receive in email, always be wary, even if you get something

you think a friend is, but that you did not expect.

9. If there is any question in your mind, then assume that it is malware.

  • Word file with macros trojan

    Hello world

    I have a doubt, recently I downloaded a file attachment to an e-mail, it was a MS Word file with macros and the Internet search that I discovered that it's a Trojan horse, the question is that if I downloaded the file and the Word automatically opens the file, but the context menu Macros told me that the macros are disabled and ask me if I still wanted to open of course, I said no!, then I deleted the file. According to it, its there any possibility that the Trojan horse could not install malicious software or opening certain ports? What I have to worry about something, in the case of installed malware of this macro, restore my mac, the problem is complete?

    If you get a pop-up message asking to put plugins or Firefox updated or anti-malware analysis then this message probably is a scam and you should never respond to such reporting to avoid being infected by malware.

    • Don't update Firefox via "> about" or by downloading and installing Firefox from Mozilla and server never using a popup or a link on a web page.
    • Plugins should be updated only through the plugin itself, or by visiting the home page of the plugin.

    I thank you in advance (and sorry for my English broken).

    What place and AVG report fact file?

    If this in the disk cache (AppData\Local) then this is probably a false positive and you can ignore it.

    Have you tried to empty the disk cache?

  • Why my stay of encoding will not be on Western?

    No matter how many times I click on 'view' and change my encoding of Unicode characters to the West, it keeps to the Unicode format by default. I found some info tells me to disable McAfee Site Advisor, but that has not fixed the problem either. With Unicode, the Chinese characters appear on my tabs, it is impossible to read or to close. It's not happy in I / E using the Site Advisor, so there must be a Firefox problem. Help! Please tell me how to solve this problem!

    The encoding only applies to the content of the web pages (i.e., the area of navigation) and not the user interface.
    Coding is normally derived the encoding that the web server sends via HTTP response headers.

    In your case, you see Chinese characters in the area of UI (tabs bar) and in this case the cause is an extension as shown above.

  • FF's download Gen:Trojan.Heu.JP.xu2@aiijmUgi of each site, I've tried.

    I tried to download FF from the Mozilla site with the heel, just tried on the site without the stub, try Softonic all with the same result. I tried to remove programs from the Control Panel program, but it won't uninstall. I had to go to drive C:, programs, Mozilla and remove each item individually. I am running Vista 32 bit. I really like firefox and believes it was one of the safer browsers on the site, but now I'm worried. I also read other questions about Trojans installed in 2014.

    Can't help that some antivirus clients still false positives for the stub installer even if it has existed since Firefox 18.0, yet the same antivirus is very good with the complete installation program.

  • Is the window.location (encoded square brackets) is a voluntary or involuntary changes?

    In Firefox, version prior to 35.0 window.location returned decoded hooks (e.g.: http://example.org/something[values]) as all other browsers we support for our Web site. In Firefox 35.0 and 35.0.1, hooks are encoded (http://example.org/something%5Bvalues%5D). Is this change is voluntary or is this a bug as a side effect of something?

    We use Sammy.js to create courses for access to the different pages of the Web site, and some roads are broken since version 35 because the hooks are not more detected by sammy. We can modify the library to decode the URI before the comparison, but I'd rather avoid making changes to an external library.

    I found looking for bugs for Firefox, it has been fixed in Firefox 36 or more.
