Win32:Trojano-2560 [Trj]

Viruses and worms

I’m just wondering what the Win32:Trojano-2560 [Trj] trojan is. It is being detected once in awhile by Avast, maybe is being regenerated by another virus/trojan inside. Does anyone know what this trojan does? I can continue deleting it if it’s just a browser hijacker, etc but if it’s trying to steal my passwords, I’d like to know about it. How malicious is it? I can’t find any description of it online. Thanx

The name is avast!'s own name for the malware, so doesn’t tell us what it is.

If you can tell us the name of the file that avast! is finding the malware in, we might be able to find some information on it.

Or you could try submitting the file to Jotti’s multi-engine online virus scanner:

Have you done a boot time scan with avast!

Have you tried Ewido?
