Default Re: Spyware scared the hell out of me!

Last virus that hit my laptop was the peper.a trojan

Troj/Peper-A is a Trojan which downloads files from the internet to the victim's computer.

Troj/Peper-A drops several copies of itself, with system and hidden attributes set, within the Windows system folder as randomly-named EXE files and adds an entry to the registry at

HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run

to run itself on system restart.

Note, the entry in the registry may point to a different copy of the Trojan after every reboot.

Troj/Peper-A also drops a hidden encrypted data file within the Windows system folder which contains information about the copies of the Trojan on the disk.

Troj/Peper-A has two copies of itself running at any time, one to download files from the internet and one to monitor the current processes IDs to make sure it is running. Thus, if one copy is terminated using the Task Manager, another copy is immediately started.
