Viking.gen2 trojan
« on: Apr 4th, 2007, 4:49pm »		 Quote Quote  Modify Modify
my antivirus program got an update yesterday, and one of the trojans VIKING.GEN2 was found in SYSTEM VOLUME INFORMATION  i've earlier had trojan(s) and i thought they were all gone, as superantispyware and trojan hunter don't find it
 
info from NVC is c:\system volume information\_restore\3d419849-1197-4061-845A-54BF968A6B65}\RP53\A0003745 .EXE
 
Any idea how to get rid of this critter?
 
NVC has quarantained it, but thats often not enough

Thanks siliconman, however i might have been a little hasty on this one ... i asked My virus scanner to remove it, and for several days, i havn't seen it on the NVC scanner either ... however if it jumps out of the forrest en near future, i have  
this instruction to try to eliminate it myself.
 
what worries me is, that i can not i the world imagene where i picked up this one, i havn't opened any suspicious files, or visited any sites, that i would suspect of hosting this type of troll's.  Huh

It could have been a temporary false positive in the NVC rules or if heuristics are using.   Wink
