Hi,
I got a strange detection warning since the data base update dated Monday May 12 2014.
ESET NOD 32 (v7.0.302.26, running Win XP 32-bit) detected "Startup scanner operating memory Operating memory Win32/Sirefef trojan" but does not give any detail (file /directory etcetera) and no mean for cleaning it.
- Running the utility "ESETSirefefCleaner.exe" gives "INFO: Win32/Sirefef not found"
- ESET SYSRESCUE CD does find anything
- MalwareBytes AntiMalware 20.0.1.1004 does not detect anything
- HitmanPro does not detect anything
- AVAST! Boot CD: idem
- Kaspersy boot CD V10: idem
- Kaspersky Anti-rootkit utility TDSSKiller: idem
- Neuberg Security Task Manager does not show any suspicious running process (see details in attachment)
- WireShark does not show any suspicious Internet traffic
- No slow down of the PC
Comparing a SysInspector report (May 14 2014) with a previous one (March 10 2014) shows as main difference ""Rootkit" = "@Trojan.Win32/Sirefef" ( 9: Risky )".
Does someone have any clue about this strange issue? A false positive linked to the latest virus database?
Thanks for the attention :-)
Andrew
