I can’t be the only one… Windows 8 Pro, fully updated. Chrome Version 28.0.1500.72 m One day Chrome just decides to start opening in Metro on my main rig. Here is the sequence of events: Power outage, bad UPS, you get the picture – Chrome v27 was running at the time, in desktop mode of course. Power came back on, Windows 8 loads – says it is installing Windows updates. Get back into Windows and...
I’ve had this annoying issue on (only one of) my Windows 8 machines, and that is the hot corners on the left side were not working. Is that what you call them, ‘hot corners’?? Anyway… I couldn’t get the open apps list from the top left, and I couldn’t even get the ‘start button’ in the bottom left corner (although I could at least put the cursor down there and still get to the start...
After getting seeing this (yet again) on message forums, and also getting a personal email about it from a D7 user this morning, I figure maybe I should blog it. I need some feedback on D7 Locksmith anyway. First, people don’t seem to realize that Windows 8 has two different types of user accounts – a local Windows account, and a Microsoft Live account. I’m not sure why some people haven’t noticed this, but maybe...
…or the ‘XBOX’ store since MS can’t seem to differentiate between the technologies – although the support is different. You will have your account history in the XBOX online store but try to get support from there, and you won’t, because they aren’t trained or capable of dealing with purchases made through Windows 8’s Video store. To get support, you’ll need to go in through http://commerce.microsoft.com despite your cues in Windows – this link comes straight...

The latest variant as discussed by Sophos is a user mode only variant (for 64bit OS compatibility) which is quite different in the removal process from previous versions. Fortunately, it’s easier! So I wrote a quick removal tool. Download the Removal Tool and Check out our Youtube Video and one from Britec09 here. The tool first scans the appropriate registry values for the infection, and if found it will extract the paths of the malware from...
Watch it here!
Still ISO a complete ZeroAccess malware sample… But thought I would share a few spots I’ve found to pick up various malware samples for others in their search… A lot of people know of www.malwaredomainlist.com a site listing infected domains. Unfortunately all but the most recent entries on the site are usually already taken down or no longer spread infection. Then there is http://www.offensivecomputing.net/ where you can directly download samples. I have several notes for you on this site....
Please email me your COMPLETE samples (I want a nice full infection here, no stubs!) Prefer you compress in 7z format, and password protect the archive. Then rename to a non-standard file extension. I don’t need my email provider rejecting important mail! Trying to collect good samples with which to make some new Youtube vids demonstrating removal techniques with D7. Thanks!
