| I've seen two computers in the past week with problems that may be related.YW
Interesting how I am seeing a recent flurry of what appears to be variants
of the SubSys
type of Trojan.
| They wouldn't boot, both had blue screens with a STOP 8E. I removed the
| drives to try and copy data off prior to fixing the problem. Any Windows
| computer that tried to access these drives got the same BSOD even when the
| drive was connected via a USB adapter. Linux could see the file structure
| but not access any files. It appeared the bootsector and partition table was
| corrupted. I zeroed out sector 0 and was able to recover some data after
| that. The drives tested fine with several hd testing programs. The hardware
| on both computers checked out OK. Both customers said the last thing they
| saw was something that sounded like a typical rougue antispyware
| hijack/extortion. They fell for it and clicked on scan my computer now. On
| the next boot the problem occurred. It looks like something is trying to
| alter the partition table in an attempt to hide but failing miserably.

I would have used the hard disk manufacturer's diagnostic tool such as SeaTools and WDDiag.
Some adware has been known to muck with the MBR, etc.
