Hello everyone. I have a question that I need urgent help with... I believe that there maybe a keylogger program on my computer that is sending emails to email addresses on the yahoo network. I have looked through the processes running, There really is no foreign program running except for (oddly) two versions of explorer.exe. I have searched everywhere for the explorer.exe program that I believe may be sending these mysterios emails. What also is worth commenting on is this program or whatever it is, opens msmsgr.exe and sends emails to mailto:rsmoneyman89@yahoo.ca - rsmoneyman89@yahoo.ca . The only way I detected this was through symanatec email proxy, which gave the error that the recieving account was over quota. Every time I start the computer there is two explorers running. There is no run command for this program when the computer starts up and I really dont have any ideas where or what this program is? Even when i'm not on the internet this program is requesting access to the internet. Any Help? |

You might want to check out http://www.computercops.us - www.computercops.us Also, block port 25 and 2525 outbound and if you're running iis on your machine, stop the smtp service. -------------

Try running spybot s & d or adaware as they detect some keyloggers.
Also try trendmicro housecall online virus scanner incase it is a
virus!

huwnet is right - I'd add that you should rum more than one of the spyware/keylogger checkers. None of them catch everything and one usuallt catches things the others miss. Don't let it go though - take immediate action - your cc info could be being posted on some web site right now! -------------
