Virus.Neshta.A

Virus.Neshta.A is a particularly nasty virus which enters the system stealthily, and infects executable files. This virus is able to hide itself on the system in this way, and runs each time the infected .exe application is executed. Users will find it difficult to remove Virus.Neshta.A without some help, seeing as this virus will remain completely resident in the background and will not draw any attention to its presence on the system.

The purpose of Virus.Neshta.A is to allow surreptitious access of the infected system to its faceless developers. These incredulous hackers will use Virus.Neshta.A to log the activity of the user on the infected PC, thereby getting their hands on sensitive financial info, usernames and passwords. This virus can also make it much easier for other threats and malware to enter the system.

Virus.Neshta.A will infect the svchost.com file on the system, which resides in the main Windows folder C:\WINDOWS or C:\WINNT. It can also enter the system through infecting what seems to be a legitimate Google update, known as GoogleUpdate.exe.

In order to protect your system and prevent the certain damage which comes with this infection destroy Virus.Neshta.A immediately. This is safest achieved by making use of a genuine security tool which will not only erase Virus.Neshta.A but also adequately protect the system from future similar attacks.
