Trojan.Comquab.A

Trojan.Comquab.A is a Trojan dropper first detected in February 2011. This Trojan dropper is a seditious infection with backdoor capabilities. It enters the system surreptitiously, without alerting the user to its presence. Trojan.Comquab.A is classified as a severe threat to any PC’s security and safety, and should be removed as soon as detection occurs.

This Trojan enters the system in a variety of nefarious ways, the most popular being by bundling itself together with other types of malware. In recent times it has been reported that Trojan.Comquab.A bundles itself with other types of legitimate security updates and downloads obtained from third party websites. Websites using drive-by download tactics have also been reported as carrying the Trojan.Comquab.A infection.

Once Trojan.Comquab.A securely roots itself in the system, it will connect to the Internet without the user’s permission. This is done in an effort for Trojan.Comquab.A to report the new infection to its authors, and to receive further instructions. It will proceed to allow its authors unlimited access to the system, with the same user privileges the logged on user has. It will also proceed to download and execute many other types of malware, which will further compromise the system’s security and safety.

Because of its sly tactics, Trojan.Comquab.A will not alert the user to its presence on the system. This is pulled off by Trojan.Comquab.A completing all its actions in the system’s background. The only way the user will be able to detect and remove Trojan.Comquab.A is with the help of a genuine security tool. This will also root out any other installed malware which emanated from the Trojan.Comquab.A infection.
