Title: W32.Kuang2+ W32.Trojan-gen{UPX!}
Post by: Tire on August 26, 2003, 03:40:28 PM
Avast detected at me 2 viruses W32.Kuang2.
What is this the virus?

Let me guess. Avast reports the imscan.dll as infected? If so, it is a false alarm. You may use the boardsearch and search for kuang or Panda.

The whole path and filename would be fine!;)
And what windows do you use.

BTW: You could check the file using this link: http://www.kaspersky.com/remoteviruschk.html (http://www.kaspersky.com/remoteviruschk.html)

This means that one of your Emails or an Email you recieved maybe  contains code that  "forces" unpatched Outlook Versions to automatical execute attachements.

BTW: It is safe to delete all files and folders that are located in the"Content.IE5" folder, if Outlook and the Internetexplorer are closed.

BTW: can you find the filenames  (given by Avast) in the registry?

Okay, maybe we need a second opinion here.  Use the Link to Bitdefender and/or Trend micro shown on this link: http://www.rokop-security.de/main/onlinescan.php
I just saw that the Bitdefenderlink is in german language. Try this: http://bitdefender.com/scan/licence.php

OK.Thanks
BitDefender Scanner shows the error in the Polish option.

Please inform us what the other Av-Programm say or maybe find! Thanks

Avast individually does not know to delete trojan Win32.Trojan-gen{UPX!}.
Does this by BitDefender Antivirus Free and places in the quarantine - Avast
Why?

PS:Norton Antivirus 2003 does not see this trojan >:(

Hi,
Scanning resident BitDefender AV Free 7 causes the reaktion Avast.
Avast individually does not remove trojan Win32.........

Post by: raman on August 27, 2003, 07:52:46 PM
Sorry to say that, because my english is far away from being perfect, but it is not very easy for me to understand exactly what you  mean. Has Bitdefender found a virus and if so what virus was found? That is important to give you advice what to do, or what the Virus had done.

Does avast still find a Virus or  does it report your system as clear?

Hi,
Scanning resident BitDefender AV Free 7

Bitdefender Free does not have a "resident scanner", afaik
only Avast does
???

Post by: Tire on August 27, 2003, 10:13:39 PM
Avast generates errors. >:(
The result of scanning other resident antivirus:
NOD32 II
McAfee VS 7 Pro
PC-Cillin 2003
AntiVir PE 6

"N0 viral code", "No trojan found"

OK, the best thing to do is to send the suspected file either to support@asw.cz or directly to me: baudis@asw.cz

We will let you know about the result!

This is what i get on my PC

Virus Name: Win32:Trojan-gen. {UPX!}
File name: C:\Program Files\WinRAR\Zip.SFX
VPS version: 0308-2, 08/26/2003

I got this after installing the NEWEST version of Winrar v3.20, I also just finished installing Windows XP Home. So I believe this is a false positive scan.    ???   Can someone let me know, Thank You in advance
