Post Win32/camroki Trojan??
My Antivirus (microsoft security essentials keeps informing me that this is a trojan) However I have run a malwarebytes scan and it did not detect anything. I have tried searching online but was wondering if you guys could offer some help on my situation. I would hate to wasted hours finding this thing and possibly reformatting if its just a false positive.


Its saying win32/camroki trojan severe threat

Also Idk if this is from the trojan or not but my computer hangs on any windows update saying they failed.




Thanks guys

♥ 's Clorox

GG tazz.

Try using AVG free. If that shows you a trojan, it will usually move it to a virus vault. I'm not familiar with Sec Essential but i've heard it's garbage.

And the windows updater may be from the trojan. After you get that removed run [url="http://download.cnet.com/CCleaner/3000-2144_4-10547048.html"]Crap Cleaner[/url]. This will scan your registry and identify any major issues. Hopefully with that you should be able to update again.

MSE is far from garbage. It's not as paranoid as AVG/Avast but that's only due to fewer false-positives.

So far ive run malwarebytes to no avail, aswell as used ccleaner. My assumption is that my pirated OS (yah i was cheap) Was cracked using a method that Ms suspects as a virus. This could also be causing my updater to be buggy.
