Hi,
Somehow a Trojan has got onto my PC.
It was downloading loads of viruses (Dialer mainly).
I run Norton Internet Security, but that did not catch the installation of
the trojan. I does however catch the viruses as they are downloaded by the
trojan.
I have ran AVG, which found Dialer.tg infected in a file called
DrInstall.exe and cleaned that, as well as some dodgy registry entries.
But, I am still seeing some wierd things like thousands of 0byte files being
written to windows\temp. These are normally names SOSxxxx.TMP (replace xxxx
with a random number) or TMPxxxx.TMP
Now, I ran Trojan hunter tongiht also, that didn't find anything, bu tthere
is clearly something going on to keep creating these files.
Can anyone point me to what might be the cause of this and how I can get
rid?
Steve
