| Removing Malicious Virus MS32DLL |
| About the virus |
This virus is somewhat marked as a Trojan virus, well, a lot of users doesn't know it's origin but it does take it some pretty nasty habits with it. It comes with the harmless look of MS32DLL.dll, but it comes with a very odd extention, ".vbs" (Visual Basic Script file). This sort of files can be run automatically if it is executed from the Auto run. When this virus effects one computer, it will automatically clones itself and transfer to any external drive, let it be a thumb drive, an external hardisk, or even a flash card (like SD Card, MMC or Compact Flash). I read a forum stated that some of the other virus that carries the same virus filename also put a text "Hacked by Godzilla" Title bar on Internet Explorer. And it will continue to infect any computer that connects to it. So far I am not sure whether it is infecting throughout the private network, but I will update if it does. |
