ok, here are informations you resquested :
- i'm using windows 2000 pro up to date with the last critical patches.
i've also a personnal firewall (kerio) and spybot (with teatimer actived) installed on my computer.
- the version of avast is 4.6 home edition (downloaded yesterday), the virus database number is 0519-1.
at the time i write, a new version has been downloaded (0519-2) but no new scan has be made.
- many files were detected, mostly in c:\winnt\system32 with strange names (with .exe extension), and in
the last scan it detected corrupted files with something like ":$data" at the end of file's name (i think
it's ADS stream in file, but correct me if i'm wrong).
- i discovered it whilst browsing the web, because kerio and spybot launched together to warn me that suspects programs tried to execute themselves and/or change the default start page in internet explorer.
- by default, internet explorer is set to clean up temporary internet files when i close it, and there are only
few files in temp folder that i can't erase.
- when i try to start explorer or iexplorer, the memory grow up fast and i've to kill process.
(maybe because of kerio or spybot or ms anti-spyware, i don't know exactly)
If you want more informations, fell free to ask me.
Patrice.
