Virus.Zbot.B

There are many known and unknown threats to protect your PC from, and one thing you can never afford to do is become lax about your PC protection especially with threats such as Virus.Zbot.B out there. This sneaky Trojan will infiltrate your PC without you even knowing about it, and will go about its nefarious tasks without drawing any attention to it.

Its main goal is to gather sensitive information from the infected system, and relay this stolen data to a remote server where third parties will be able to access it. Once the Trojan is executed on the systm, it will attempt to connect to a remote server and download a configuration file.

If you wonder how this type of Trojan manages to gain entry to your PC, be weary of spam emails and opening attachments from senders unfamiliar to your. Malicious browser hijacking web domains also carry this Trojan and will use drive-by download tactics to drop it into your system.

Virus.Zbot.B will drop the following malevolent files in the system under these locations:

%System%\sdra64.exe
%System%\oembios.exe
%System%\ntos.exe
%System%\wsnpoem\audio.dll
%System%\wsnpoem\video.dll
%System%\sysproc64\sysproc86.sys
%System%\sysproc64\sysproc32.sys
%System%\lowsec\local.ds

Finding any of these files present on the system will be a clear indication of infection. Because its infiltration of the system is done so clandestinely, the user will have a hard time to identify and remove Virus.Zbot.B from the system without some help. Simply get rid of Virus.Zbot.B before it succeeds at its wicked goals.
