Winhex PoC virus

[Post on : June 16, 2007 00:32 | Category : Virus | by : smallmo] Reship : Original

About one year ago, a proof-of-concept virus for IDA was appeared. Most AV vendors reported this virus, and named it as W32.Gatt (a.k.a Gattman).

And today, F-Secure gave a post about a proof-of-concept virus for Winhex on their blog.

According to their report:
The virus prepends itself to all available .WHS (WinHex script) files. The infected WinHex scripts stop working and the only thing that they can do at that point is to spread the virus further.


F-Secure detected it as Vred.a.

Recommend it to anyone.
Search-and-destroy Antispyware is the best scan that I have used to keep my PC clean and working like new. It’s a great scanner that finds all the same bugs that other scans such as Norton can find. What’s even better is that it cost less than many of the other options. I found the antispyware solution from Search-and-destroy at http://www.Search-and-destroy.com and decided to give it a try. That was one of the best decisions I ever made. I’m very happy with this scanner and would recommend it to anyone that wants to protect and care for their PC so it will last as long as possible.
