KICK A$$ BLASTER Posted September 7, 2009 Share Posted September 7, 2009 A few minutes ago I was trying to load up the Huddle home page and my anti-virus program went nuts. Three virus's and a trojan program were picked up by Kaspersky. Just a little FYI Link to comment
KICK A$$ BLASTER Posted September 7, 2009 Author Share Posted September 7, 2009 Ok, it happened again. This is what Kaspersky said it was: Trojan program Exploit.J5.Pdfka.ti Hope that helps Link to comment
dmarc117 Posted September 7, 2009 Share Posted September 7, 2009 my anti-virus software is saying a malware attack. clean it up!!!! Link to comment
SF409ers Posted September 7, 2009 Share Posted September 7, 2009 Same thing happened here as the home page was loading in. McAfee picked up a virus then my pc froze and had to be restarted. Ran Malewarebytes after restart and it detected a bunch of infections. From McAfee Log: Detection name: FakeAlert-WinwebSecurity.e (virus) File: C:\WINDOWS\Temp\_ex-68.exe Process: C:\WINDOWS\Temp\wpv941252249250.exe Hope that helps, can also send the Malewarebytes log. Firefox is still running abnormally slow so I may still have some work to do. Also when I restarted Firefox there was a new add-on I had to delete IIRC called "Vuze". Link to comment
darin3 Posted September 7, 2009 Share Posted September 7, 2009 Both of my laptops are now fux0red. I have no idea why. Link to comment
Tford Posted September 7, 2009 Share Posted September 7, 2009 _ex_68.exe was the malware program I ended up getting. Simple kill and delete fix but an annoyance nonetheless. Link to comment
WJW Posted September 7, 2009 Share Posted September 7, 2009 There was a momentary hack into our home page that was cleaned off about 10 minutes after it was inserted. Our hosting support team has found the entry point and is working on a security patch. This shouldn't be an issue going forward. Link to comment
SF409ers Posted September 7, 2009 Share Posted September 7, 2009 Anyone still having problems from this? My computer has been f*ed up all day since this occurred. Firefox is running at a f*ing snails pace and I can't seem to find the problem I do know that it wasn't happening before I came here this morning. I already deleted that initial virus but my log from Malwarebytes showed a bunch of stuff that looks far nastier. Was wondering if anyone has had any additional problems and if so what, if anything, has worked to fix the problem. Browsing right now is almost unbearable. Link to comment
WJW Posted September 8, 2009 Share Posted September 8, 2009 I learned this the hard way a while back. Some malware installs programs that re-infest your computer at startup. In case you don't know how to deal with that... Click on your windows start button - then click Run. From there key in msconfig and click okay. Go to the Startup tab and uncheck anything that you don't recognize as something you want to run at startup. Some things I've seen in the past are ctfmon, ikowin32, sorihade and bekoduya. You'll need to restart for this to take effect. When restarted run Malwarebytes again and you should be good to go. To be double sure check msconfig again and repeat the process. Link to comment
CaP'N GRuNGe Posted September 8, 2009 Share Posted September 8, 2009 Weird. I got hit by something last night too. Really nasty and I guess it could have been from the Huddle. Something called 9129837.exe. I ended up having to start in safe mode and do a system restore to Saturday. I did a full virus scan afterwards with McAfee and nothing showed. Hope that cleaned it up.
