new poly win32

[evil^milk]

hey guys, while browsing for <lol> on magicteapot, i acquired

New Poly Win32.

mcafee antivirus keeps on detecting the same files and i keep deleting them but they come back. Any info on danger/removal instructions?

apparently it's spyware, has something to do with "heuteristics" and is "polymorphic".

#1 Magic Teapot.

#2 it's an internet forum.

#3 feeble suggestion to stay on-topic? respect -100.

i solved the problem, it seemed to be adware. For all you who have the same problem, download Titanium Antivirus by Panda-something and it removes the files.

Run your pc in safemode, delete teh file, scan the registry and then restart in normal mode and scan again. That should clear it out. The reason its coming back makes me thing that there is something in the registry that is causing it to re-create teh file again. You could also run the scans with your internet connection disabled.
