dataup.exe?


Recommended Posts

Hello,

I recently downloaded a program that installed tons of malware on my computer. I used MalwareBytes to get all of them out, except for one, called "dataup.exe".

After reading up on "dataup.exe", I found that it was a Trojan virus. MalwareBytes did not detect dataup.exe.

I found it on my C: drive, in Program Files (x86)/dataup.

There are the files located in the folder "dataup":

cm.bat

dataup.exe

NTSVC.ocx

runbat.vbs

There was also another folder I believe is linked to "dataup.exe", called "data_up", located in the same area as the "dataup" folder.

The contents of this folder are:

data_up.exe

What I did first was I ended the process "dataup.exe" in the Task Manager, and simply deleted the folders "dataup" and "data_up". I hoped that would solve the problem, but it did not. The folders simply came back with the same contents.

Any help on removing this piece of malware?

Thanks in advance.

Hi Guys,

 

Please update your MBAM to the current database and run a  threat scan.

 

Allow MBAM to remove what it finds and then restart your computer when it asks you too.
