I have been struggling with this virus for many months. What it seems to do is slow my computer down.

 

TrojanDownloader:Java/OpenConnection.OU

Exploit:Java/CVE-2010-0840

 

I'm running Windows 7. When I run a MSE full scan it finds it, but always fails to remove it. It just hangs about 3/4 of the way through the process. But SUPERAntiSpyware does not even find it. Why is that?

[GuiltySpark]

Probably not in the database yet.

 

Run a scan with HerdProtect and see if it's found and how many times just to rule out a false positive.

I've had this for quite some time and updated  SUPERAntiSpyware frequently.

What does herd protect say?

[oldyellr]

I ran HerdProtect and it found a bunch of stuff, but Exploit:Java/CVE-2010-0840 was not among them. Just running it a second time doing the cloud thing. I'm quite pleased with it. So many of these things find 4000 files, remove 200, then require you to purchase them to get the rest. That's what I call blackmailware.

Yea rogueware is a constant thing but herdprotect is a good multi scanner. Some AVs will pick up False positives from time to time.

 

Post the results back so we can see the detections.
