Same Memman.vxd as mentioned in this thread:

I was unable to find additional information on this keylogger, but I'm assuming it requires more than just the one file to work, therefore my diagnosis.

rain40:

You may be entirely correct that the detection of "C:\WINDOWS\system32\Memman.vxd" as "SpyBossPro" is a false positive. I also realize that the detections of the file "Memman.vxd" has been identified as a false positives in the past. With that in mind, I offer the following.

Firstly, when I detect what I consider a possible false positive, I submitted the file to both of the following online scanners to ensure that it is not being detected by other anti-malware products:

• Online malware scan (virusscan.jotti.org)
• VIRUSTOTAL - Free Online Virus and Malware Scan (Virustotal.com)

Secondly, I suggest that you follow the recommendations in post #2 of the thread you referenced and send a copy of the file to Team Spybot so that they can analyze the file and determine:

• If it is in fact a false positive or not.
  --- and/or
• How to improve the detection signatures to separated possible from the real detections vs. false detections.

If you decide to send a copy of the file to Team Spybot, please reference this thread so that they have some background information.

... I was unable to find additional information on this keylogger, …

A Google search for the file "Memman.vxd" yields many hits.

... but I'm assuming it requires more than just the one file to work, therefore my diagnosis.

Possibly, but a .vdx file is a Virtual Device Driver (also called Value-added Driver) and is used in association with .exe files and therefore may constitute an actual threat.

hello,

sorry for this reoccurring false positive, I forgot to check if this file was detected by another rule set. This will be fixed asap.
