Full Version: Xs++ Virus!?
SE-NSE Forums > SE Firmware > Newbie Forum
Snowballe
Here is the thing,
I was at my friends house which do not have XS++ so I downloaded it.
It came packed in in a .rar file so i extracted it to the desktop, when I double click the .exe file to install his virus scanner starts whining about how it have detected a virus in the file angry2.gif .

Since the program dont recognise the virus (?but it knew it was one confused.gif ?) it asked if I wanted to search F-Secures database for more information. So I did, this is what I found.

"Agent.aa is a data stealing trojan..." [read the full summary here - http://www.f-secure.com/v-descs/agent_aa.shtml]

That was all I needed to hear, we removed the file asap byebye.gif .
So my question is have anyone else experienced the same, and is it really a virus?

This is really starting to freak me out because I got the same program installed on my computer at home. no.gif
(writing this from his comp. fyi)

Ohh and by the way i downloaded it from here -> http://forums.se-nse.net/index.php?showtopic=16338

It happen if you download from other site than se-nse. 4shared is safe because it have virus scanner. If you download SE stuff from the Limewire, it might have virus.

I was in my cousin's house (really far away). I need to download xs++ because I need to flash my phone.
But my cousin said "no" She think that downloading stuff can get the virus easily. (her laptop doesn't have anti-virus), So i download it and its nothing happen.

I take it shes very Naive as she does not realise a malicious scripted webpage can introduce a VIRUS into her computer? ohmy.gif

or even a macro in any of the top business packages that she may use to write her letters/c.v. etc ? ohmy.gif


You dont need to download anything even viewing or listening to streaming media can introduce all kinds of Virii! ohmy.gif

even the supposed fool proof MAC O.S. and even recently LINUX has had at least a couple of scares with Virii!!! ohmy.gif

my next question is ...if she has NO ANTI VIRII software installed HOW WOULD SHE KNOW if she DID GET ONE?

or more to the matter and more worrying... MAY HAVE ONE ALREADY??

Adware is also forum of Virii/Spyware that can also bring in MORE stuff sad.gif

Hehe I have some experience with these things... most likely it's a keylogger. If it's a derivative of BlazingTools Perfect Keylogger, it might have an option to remove it via Add/Remove Programs. Or, run Spybot Search & Destroy. BPK (BlazingTools Perfect Keylogger) is bundled onto the program that is run, and it should have a .dll file that's named weird... I know when I bugged my sisters laptop I said " Hey I found this really cool song program... it let's you edit the song and stuff" and I bundled BPK with it and called the dll svchost.dll lol.
