Virus that Avast! is not detecting.

Got a pop up for this this morning DO NOT ATTEMPT TO OPEN IF YOU DONT KNOW WHAT YOU ARE DOING:

http://online-download-av1.info/install.php

Another fake antivirus installer, I’m thinking it might be an Antivirus360 variant but I’m not sure. Link is above for the experts to look it over. Virustotal results are here:

Any chance you can email the virus, zipped and password protected, to virus@avast.com ?
Include the password and file description in the body of the email, please.

-= Avira did not detect… It’s sorta weird… Maybe, a new virus…

Yeah Kasperksy too its strange for a new fake anti virus lol

It’s not unusual for these things to have zero detection when they first come out.

We’re always hoping that avast could detect these nasties quicker… a zero-day behavior will be good (will it be present on avast5?).

-= Hoping for better proactive detections…

this may help too

Forget it! These guys are always going to be one step ahead. If you can’t spot a scam yet, you’re doomed.

Doomed, laddie, doomed!

Having all sorts of problems removing av360 from a laptop: Here is the Hijack this log: can anyone help us? browser redirects to loyaltube10.com - (this is one of many different sites) - noticed a “discuss” in browser add ons - disabled it - all appears ok… but is it? Think it could be a TrojanDropper…

previous behaviour included- stopping access to regedit and CMD as well as disabling Zonealarm and avast!.. been a real bugger just to reinstall (not a lot you can do when malwarebytes or any security cannot be downloaded!!!) - anyhow - let me know if you notice anything unusual with the log:

Welcome to the forums, IDTPJules. :slight_smile:

You have used an old version of HJT. Please uninstall the old version and download the new version from the link below. Also, please post the complete log including the end.

It would also be better for you to start your own thread about your problem.


If you haven’t already got this software (freeware), download, install, update and run it, preferably in safe mode and report the findings (it should product a log file).
