uncrypt.exe : Which virus/maleware causes this? How to remove?

F

Frank Miller

Hello,

any time I connect my USB-stick to my PC, immediately 2 files are
copied onto this stick:

uncrypt .eye attributes:rahs size:8.289.868
autorun.inf attributes:a size 0 bytes

Which virus/maleware causes this, what does this uncrypt.exe do and
which tooI can use to remove?
Eset antivir and Spybot SD 1.62 did not help.

Many thanks for any hint

Regards
Frank

Submit the executable file to jotti.org or virustotal.com and see what
they say. Who knows, you may have the first sample of an entirely new
malware. Even if your results are inconclusive, it may help the rest of
us to have this identified as soon as possible.

Hello FromTheRafters!
Submit the executable file to jotti.org or virustotal.com and see what they say.

Thanks for your helpful hint!

virustotal.com says, that 6 antivirus programs found something within
my file "uncrypt.exe".
For example Avira Antivir and McAffee found "TR/Agent.tcn",
BitDefender "Trojan.VB.NZF" PREVX reports a "High Risk Cloaked
Maleware"

I installed Avira Antivir (free version available on
http://www.free-av.de/en/index.html), it found the maleware and
deleted it.

Many thanks for your help!

Regards

Frank
