Frigate Posted December 11, 2011 ID:503504 Share Posted December 11, 2011 I don't know where I picked this one up, but it's been a persistent annoyance. No where near as scary as some of the other bugs I've dealt with. At least it doesn't prevent other programs from running. It does, however, drive up my CUPsage and takes up about 100 megs of memory.Attach.txtDDS.txthijackthis.log Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frigate Posted December 11, 2011 Author ID:503750 Share Posted December 11, 2011 And now ping.exe seems to be gone, but I have this new pest pest called plugin-container.exe that is showing up in the task manager. The behavior is pretty much the same, so I suspect that it simply changed its name to disguise itself. I don't know if this is significant or not.

Frigate Posted December 12, 2011 Author ID:503942 Share Posted December 12, 2011 Somehow I managed two pick up something really nasty, as in the sort that blocks antivirus programs from running. I restarted in safe mode and after finding the malware was sill present even in safe mode, I restarted again and ran system restore as soon as I could. After that, I had Malwarebytes run a scan the found two trojans, which it got rid of.This seems to have cleared out the bug, although I'm not sure if I'm in the clear or not.
