small 28 au reported as a trojan but may not be?
Jona, thanks for input. Looks likely and I*ll go into that soon.
Meanwhile, following previous instructions, have run into a little confusion...
I Understand the sorting and classifying of Malware is time consuming and very costly.
Example: One firm*s scan reports: TrojanHorse Dropper.small.28.au
Search
www.3.ca Virus Database elements, [ small 28 ] [Enter no periods in small.28.au,= prevents search]
Returns three results.
One return stands out because of the recent date fitting the discovery. May 16/06
Win32/ Bagle.EA 16 Mar 2006 W32/Bagle-DO, Win32.Bagle.EA, WORM_BAGLE.DQ (Trend), Win32/Bagle.EA!Worm, W32/Bagle.FO@mm (F-Secure), W32.Beagle.DX@mm (Symantec), Email-Worm.Win32.Bagle.fs (Kaspersky)
Now this seems to be a Win32-bagle-EA type, and I presume holds [small.28] somewhere in it*s files. So this now seems like something other than a Trojan Horse(Dropper) or it could still be a Trojan. Although the definition here seems to be [Worm].
This raises many questions before learning the steps to disarm and remove this malware. TG
