mswqwbssika.exe


Recommended Posts

I'm running Windows XP64

Program self-installs from browsing infected website.

While running it disables the task manager and sets lan to connect through a proxy instead of "automatically detect settings".

It starts an "antivirus scan" with several pop-ups asking you to activate your anti-virus protection. Scan window and popups are persistant and overlay everything else on the desktop.

I was able to kill it by opening a command prompt and running "taskslist" and then "killtask /PID XXXX /f"

Only one process I was able to identify as being abnormal was mswqwbssika.exe

Full Malwarebytes scan (updated first) did not detect any malicious items.

  • The process of cleaning your system may take some time, so please be patient.

  • Instructions that I give are for your system only!
  • If you don't know or can't understand something please ask.

You're right, MBAM did not detect it with the latest updates, so please send it for analyse.
