Trojan horse in the Dell Sound driver file?

01/11/08, I downloaded a http://ftp.us.dell.com/audio/R105155.EXE sound card driver
Last night, after installing the update of daily AVG, AVG Virus definitions immediately detected a Trojan Generic9.AYHW horse in c:\Program Analog Devices Devices\Core\smax4pnp.exe; in C:\drivers\audio\onboard\SMax4PNP.exe; and C:\dell\drivers\R105155\SMAXWDM\W2K_XP\SMax4PNP.exe
I don't know if this virus was sitting dormant until last night, or if she was active and AVG does not include it in their definitions until last night.  In both cases, it seems that the virus came from the Dell ftp server.  It's a known or new Trojan horse?  I had enjoyed hearing all the details about this particular virus and its effects.  Even if AVG detected it, the AVG virus encyclopedia does not recognize it.  And what does Dell to ensure free downlads of viruses on its ftp server?

  • How do you remove Trojan horse from the Windows\system\svchost.exe file located?

    How do you remove Trojan horse from the Windows\system\svchost.exe file located? I worked on this problem for 5 days. I've tried everything except wipe the hard drive completely and starting over. Windows xp pro sp3

    I bought a new diagnosis program and quarantined the virus once it has been identified. I tried to remove the virus in several ways, but it comes back. The best way that I thought would work enter safe mode and by changing the attributes of the svchost.exe file and then delete and checked the registry AWI hwo to the Web site, but it continues to be problematic.

    During the uninstallation of antivirus/antispyware/security programs always check for an uninstall

    ------------------------------

    Here's what I use and recommend: (these are all free and very effective versions.)

    Avast and Prevx proved extremely reliable and compatible with all I have
    launched on them. Microsoft Security Essentials and Prevx have also proven to be very
    reliable and compatible. Use MSE or Avast and Prevx, Prevx 3 but not all.

    Avast Home free - stop any shields is not necessary except leave the file system, Web,.
    Operational network (Script and behavior are also recommended in Ver 6 +).

    Prevx - Home - free

    Windows Firewall

    Windows Defender (is not necessary if you use MSE)

    Protected IE - mode

    IE 8 - SmartScreen filter WE (IE 7 phishing filter)

    I also IE always start with asset if filter InPrivate IE 8.
    (It may temporarily turn off with the little icon to the left of the + bottom
    right of IE)

    Two versions of Avast are available 6.x and 4.8 x

    Avast - home - free - 6.x stop shields you do not use (except files, Web, network, &)
    Shields of behavior) - double click on the icon in the Notification area - real time Orange - click on the
    Shield that you want to stop - STOP. To stop the Orange icon to show an error indicator-
    Click on the Orange icon - top right - settings - click on the status bar - uncheck shields you
    disabled - click OK
    http://www.avast.com/free-antivirus-download

    Avast 4.8 x - home - free - stop shields, you don't need except leaving Standard, Web,.
    and the network running. (Double-click the blue icon - look OK. - upper left - Shields details
    Finish those you don't use).
    http://www.avast.com/free-antivirus-download#TAB4

    Or use Microsoft Security Essentials - free
    http://www.Microsoft.com/Security_Essentials/

    Prevx works well alongside MSE or Avast

    Prevx - home - free small, fast, exceptional protection CLOUD, working with other security
    programs. It is a single scanner, VERY EFFICIENT, if it finds something come back here
    or use Google to see how to remove.

    Choice of PCmag editor - Prevx-
    http://www.PCMag.com/Article2/0, 2817,2346862,00.asp

    Also get Malwarebytes - free - use as scanner only. If you ever think malware and that
    would be unusual with Avast and occasional Prevx running with the exception of a low level cookie
    (not much), to UPDATE and then run it as a scanner. I have a lot of scanners and they
    never find anything of note that I started to use this configuration.

    Note: The Microsoft Safety Scanner ends 10 days after being downloaded. To restart a scan with the latest definitions of anti-malware, download and run the Microsoft Safety Scanner again.

    Note: The data files that are infected must be cleaned only by removing the file completely, which means that there is a risk of data loss.

  • Satellite T110-121 - Trojan horses on the installer?

    I recently bought a T110-121. Turned on, set up Windows 7. Uninstalled MacAfee. Deliberately no connection to the internet at all. VET AV. Ran installed AV scan. Showed 2 Trojan horses.

    I don't think that I can reach the screenshots here, but they were the two instances (one in the sys32) and the other in sys64 under the file mfplay.dll Windows directories. VET was not able to clean or delete, or I could, because I don't have the permission from TrustedInstaller to do. VETERINARY said that the Trojan TROJAN horse. WIN32. HOMEPAGE.

    Hi mikelawrence,

    > What is normal as Toshiba or Microsoft to distribute Trojan horses with new computers?
    Laughing out loud
    You are a funny guy :D

    Sorry, but to be honest, I'm sure that Toshiba or Microsoft distributes the horses of Trojan or virus with the new product.

    I think that your antivirus software gives you a false alarm and that's it!
    But about the antivirus, you wrote that you have installed "VET AV". I've never heard of this program, maybe that's the problem you have. This could be the Trojan disguised as antivirus program.

    In my opinion, you need to install a reliable antivirus program. AntiVir is a great freeware tool. Alternative, I recommend Kaspersky.

  • How to remove all of the Widcomm / Broadcom driver files without afecting Windows 7

    WIDCOMM/Broadcom Bluetooth does not connect to any device. I tried troubleshooting, uninstalling and reinstalling in various ways, including Revo (Revo search all installed files if installed with it, which wasn't my original case), without success. I want to clean the computer of any trace of the driver Widcomm/Broadcom again restart. As know, there is no way to remove all of the Broadcom driver files (sounds similar to drivers who need specific applications to remove their display files). I also need to clean the registry of this batch of Broadcom entered and port settings. Unable to set the permissions of port settings to delete HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Enum\BTHENUM and the BTH

He points to the guilty finding drivers and remove them. According to my experience, there is no need to reinstall the driver on remains stale. However. I'm not sure that any of these drivers will not need to Windows. I tried a few things from her tutorial without result. Shinmila link to the support site for Widcomm is no longer valid, and I couldn't find any support he...

    Where my questions:

    1. Can I safely delete all files found by searching on its method 2?
    2. How to clean the ports of registry and other settings?

    I am open to all ideas and suggestions which put me using Bluetooth, but from my experience, I believe that. as for the display drivers, I have to have my PC without remaining driver files and settings. Thank you for all provided assistance.

    The only reason why you could not delete the key \services\BTHPORT is because you don't have the appropriate permissions on some of its underlying subkeys, specifically you didn't have all the permissions on the subkeys of \BTHPORT\Parameters\ExceptionDB\VidPids.  I have no problem taking complete control over the underlying of the subkeys either directly or by inheritance and then removing the key BTHPORT.  Regarding PsExec switch-s allows him to start a process under the guise of the system account where you can pretty much do as you please.

    If the old drivers from Targus gave you problems, then I suggest that you use the latest drivers for Broadcom, of course, you won't know this they solve your problem until you try them.

  • I downloaded Firefox 3.6 on a vista 64-bit computer and got a Trojan horse with the download.

    Downloaded firefox 3.6 on a Vista 64 bit machine. Once downloaded, I started having viruses pop up (third party) caveats of protection. Windows defender and IE open and lock-up. It returns a warning whenever I run an application and prevents the execution of most of the programs. Never had this problem with the Mozilla software before. Just curious if anyone else has had a similar problem.

    First of all, go to http://www.avg.com/us-en/avg-rescue-cd-download and download the rescue CD. Follow the instructions to create the disc/usb. Then go to the web site of Firefox and download the installation files. Don't go to other sites to get the files.
    In Control Panel, choose to uninstall Firefox. Once the uninstall is complete, place AVG Rescue disk in the drive and restart, making sure that the PC boots to the CD/USB. Once the rescue is complete, restart and install Firefox. Make sure you have the latest version of the anti-virus software and firewall running. AVG, Norton and Panda is among the best. I had this problem when I clicked on the link for some antivirus England.It unnamed took over the system and would not let me do anything. I could only get them online by starting in safe mode with internet connection.
