i did an online scan and was told i had this trj/downloader.kq in c:\windows\sbcs.exe i did a full scan with avast and nothing came up so i scanned that file it came up with win32 trojano-169 found in file C:\WINDOWS\sbcs.exe it wont let me repair it or move it to chest any ideas? and is that the same virus the other place found? :-\
Yes it is the same. Unfortunatly there still is not some sort of agreement on how to name malware so different av companies can use different names for the same thing. Confusing for many users, I admit. But that’s the way it is. Let’s hope there will be a uniforming naming someday.
To deal with this trojan, run a boottime scan with Avast and it should be taken care of. Very likely the infection is active and that prevents Avast from deleting/moving it. The boottime scan should be able get around this.
Let us know if the problem is solved after the scan.
ok i deleted at bootime scan went to wins sbcs right clicked scanned folder was ok clicked to open it and virus warning came up same one as before so i scanned sherv warning came up so i moved to chest it went from screen then i clicked sbcs agin warning came back up and it put sherv back on screen even though its still in my chest??? am i being thick here? :-\
Hi,
what Windows-version do you have… ?
(if it’s ME or XP, then first disable system restore)
- try deleting again manually in safeMode (F8-Boot)
or via avast boot-time scan - and post a Hijackthis-log for diagnosis
More details & instructions can be found in the link " VirusRemoval" below inmy sig…
ok did that cant se it now but darent click on sbcs just in case lol heres my log

The log file is clean.
- Remove everything from the virus chest. (delete them)
- Disable system restore.
- reboot
- Check your system and remove the following files (if they are there)
c:\windows\sbcs.exe
c:\windows\msbb.exe
C:\windows\Prefetch\sbcs.exe-xxxxxxxx.pf (the xxxxxxxx can be numbers or letters)
c:\windows\Prefetch\msbb.exe-xxxxxxxx.pf (the xxxxxxxx can be numbers or letters) - reboot
It looks like there are some leftovers from malware you had installed.
ok i only found sbcs in windows no exe should i delete that? i found the exe in prefetch and deleted it i couldnt find the other one at all i deleted chest files too
ok i waited for answer yesterday but hmmmm i deleted sbcs file too it is sitting in recycle bin do i get rid??? afterwards do i system restore back on???
Empty the bin (remove it)
Only reenable system restore if you really have a need for it.
Personally I have it always disabled.
