greenmachine Posted May 3, 2006 Report Share Posted May 3, 2006 It is fake indeed. Ignore it (and please remove the direct link in your post so that it is not accidentally downloaded and installed by others). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
allegate Posted May 3, 2006 Report Share Posted May 3, 2006 I was wondering this myself. The URL provided set off many warning bells, as did the program name. I looked it up via google and got this:Threat: TrojanDownloader.loadadv Alias: Threat type: Trojan Downloader - Advice: RemoveThreat risk: Severe RiskSevere risk threats are typically installed without user interaction through security exploits, and may allow an attacker to remotely control the infected machine. Such threats may allow the attacker to install additional malware and use the compromised machine to participate in denial of service attacks, spamming, and bot nets, or to transmit sensitive data to a remote server. The malware may be cloaked and not visible to the user. These threats severely compromise the system by lowering security settings, installing “backdoors,” infecting system files, or spreading to other networked machines.Description: TrojanDownloader.loadadv is a group of files that download other malware and/or adware without notice or consent.TrojanDownloader.loadadv is typically downloaded through a security hole or though social engineering. © Copyright 2006 Sunbelt Software, Inc.Author: NULLAuthor URL: Author description: File Signatures:process: loadadv411.exe: MD5 Hash: 29f3df2894524ad2c35...process: loadadv400.exe: MD5 Hash: 36f09bca36e79afcf56...process: loadadv401.exe: MD5 Hash: e66894aa391b2ab4a92...process: loadadv402.exe: MD5 Hash: efacb01a45add8fa593...process: loadadv403.exe: MD5 Hash: d185a14860a5b507a08...process: loadadv404.exe: MD5 Hash: 2a0f59c7e10d7c7fc3d...process: loadadv405.exe: MD5 Hash: 13d737c1b138310be9a...process: loadadv406.exe: MD5 Hash: ac2cd4ed269afb6e36d...process: loadadv407.exe: MD5 Hash: b1f343be52553aa9bf9...etc., etc.via this URL: http://research.sunbelt-software.com/threa...&threatid=43801. any ideas where this came from?
