Virtumonde.dll

by beach2912 - 11/26/10 9:31 AM

Spybot S & D keeps finding Virtumode.dll TrojansC-35 in
C:\Windows\System32\mfc40.dll on both of my computers. Tried fixing the problem, rebooting and rescanning and the problems keeps coming up. Scanned one computer with Malwarebytes Anti-Malware and no injections were found. Is S S & D creating a false positive? Thanks

beach..

It's a confirmed false positive and will be fixed with their update scheduled for next Wednesday. Also see "mfc40.dll"

If you would feel more comfortable, you can always submit it to them for confirmation.

How to report possible False Positives

Hope this helps..
Carol

Yes, this does help. I'll ignore the S S & D problem until after the Wednesday update and run my other anti-virus programs. Thanks Carol.

Got the same thing just as I clicked on a window that appeared while I was scanning with spybot asking me if I want to reboot for more accurate scan or something like that.And tried deleting it but does just re appear.May have been a coince while scanning and clicking on the window to yes reboot but didn't.
