Just got hit with some pretty serious malware programs, installed by theirself. They were taking control over my internet browsers, wouldn't let me view the task manager, and were closing out MSE. Luckily I was able to restore my system to earlier time today and that seemed to solve most of the problems. I'm running a full MSE scan right now and it has found like 3 more Trojans so far. Scary shit

When that happens, I just back up the important stuff and reformat. Usually ends up better in the long run.

That was my first thought actually, I already have all of my stuff backed up. I think I'll just reinstall when I install my Q9450 this weekend/next week. It's been about 6 months anyways.

Yeah, I'd limp along till the weekend, then wipe it out, too. Makes the most sense.

yup.

i only have a 60GB partition for the C: drive, and keep nothing but the OS and programs that need reinstalls anyway (things like office/PDF readers/web browsers etc) - anything that can run without a reinstall, goes on the other partition. makes formats much quicker to be up and running, and i can reinstall properly when i get the time.

Damn I'm surprised MSE didn't catch them before they installed :eek:

if you look in the history tab what does it say it's found

(pssst next time stay outta the Chinese porn sites)

MSE is like all the other free AV's, it really only catches them once they're installed, rarely beforehand.

Athlonite · Jul 23, 2010

Not from my own experience Mussels I've had it catch alot of stuff long before it's installed usually whilst it's still downloading it and it's sitting in the temp folder

I'm pretty sure I got them from a download from SourceForge. The first was "Antimalware Doctor", it was scanning and wouldn't let me close, I saw then that it was actually installed on the computer and was saying it needed to be activated. I think ctrl+atl+del may have launched the next, which was another fake one called "Antivir Solution Pro".

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rogue_security_software

It's been a long time since I've been attacked like that. Got to start being more cautious.

Athlonite · Jul 23, 2010

yeah seems those fake AV ones are getting some real smarts behind them it's pretty unusual for something from sourceforge to be infected though I thought they'd be a bit more vigilant obviously someone's built in a back door for the specific purpose of infecting the unwary have you emailed anyone sourceforge to complain about it very sternly

I don't know for sure it was from there, I just think it was. I downloaded and ran the program and within about 15 min the crap happened. I might look up that specific download on there and report it for inspection.

Athlonite · Jul 23, 2010

seems they have a twitter page or an email addy you can use but it seems mighty coincidental that you'd d/l a program and run it and then get hit with nasties maybe a little too coincidental if you ask me

Yeah I just sent them an email telling them what's up, with a link to the picture of the Trojans I showed earlier.

Athlonite · Jul 23, 2010

cool let us know how ya get on would be interesting to see what sort of response you get from them

Exactly how I do it, except my partition is a little larger, as most of my games get installed to the main partition. (Mostly steam)

my steam folder is on a different physical drive... you dont even need to reinstall it when formatting, all games are ready to go.

Wile E · Jul 23, 2010

I always did the copy paste thing. Well, I prefer to have my games on the RAID anyway, that's the only reason I keep a decent sized OS partition.

That's why I keep MS's Process Explorer on my parent's laptop. Those fake hits won't let you bring up task manager. So I just jump to the folder I put Process Explorer in, open it up and kill what ever I don't like. :nutkick:

Thanks, good taste lol, these fans and the heatsink are very good.

I suppose you don't have the fans attached to Scythe Kaze Server?
