This evening AVG8.5 detected this object; Trojan horse BackDoor.Generic11.TDY in this file; D:\i386\APPS\App23942\win2000\igfxcfg.exe @ 4:28 PM
Later AVG detected this object; Trojan horse BackDoor.Generic11.TDY here; C:\WINDOWS\system32\igfxcfg.exe @6:28 PM
Both objects were sent to the Virus Vault. I suppose one question I have is, "is this just the installer package which didn't fully execute"?
Additionally, the computer was scanned with; M$ Malicious Software Removal Tool (May) Nothing was found.
SUPERantispyware; found 73 tracking cookies from the usual suspects, which were removed.
And also "Ad Aware" free which found only tracking cookies, again from IE, and which also were removed.
My computer is asymptomatic, no problems, and full speed ahead.
Now, I know what you're thinking, this is an Emachines so how could one tell if it was OK in the first place, but it is.
So, my only question is, is this likely the end of this infection issue, or are there more surprises in store?
