Viruses and worms

hi folks!

i post a file , it’s not a virus but avast detect like a trojan

Please, don’t do this. Attaching files that avast! announces as infected is really not a good idea!

I don’t know what makes you think that the file is clean. The file, though named .exe.jpg, is an executable file in fact. When started, it checks for a presence of a known AdWare (TMKSoft XPlugin), tries to download a file from a strange IP address, write it to system directory and start it (including possible planning to be started on next restart).
It really doesn’t look like an innocent piece of code.

What is the name of that filem, where did you find it and what name does Avast give that “trojan”?

Or post a Hijackthis log: http://216.180.233.153/~merijn/files/HijackThis.exe

avast! detects it as Win32:Esednldr-B [Trj].
In my opinion, if it doesn’t find the adware installed (HKLM\Software\TMKSoft\XPlugin), it doesn’t do anything.
