View Full Version : Cloud Protection malware
Does Spybot detect the Cloud Protection malware and can it remove it?
Thanks.
Hello vjaan,
Does Spybot detect the Cloud Protection malware and can it remove it?
Is your computer infected and do you have a Cloud Protection rogue anti-spyware program file that can be sent to our detectives? detections AT spybot.info
Best regards.
The "Cloud Protection" spyware windows are popping up on my brother's computer. We finally get them closed (using Task Manager) but they come back. He ran a McAfee scan which did not detect it. I have Spybot on one of my computers but cannot tell if it is able to recognize the Cloud Protection malware, so I don't know whether to recommend it to my brother.
There are no malware files that he would be able to locate on his own.
Thanks for your response.
Hello vjaan,
It is possible other malware was bundled with this newer variant in the WinAVPro family of rogues.
Someone can take a look at the system if you start a topic in the Malware Removal Forum (http://forums.spybot.info/forumdisplay.php?f=22) where a volunteer analyst will advise when available.
If you take that route please see the forum's FAQ first, it includes instructions in post #2 on how to provide DDS logs, which are the logs used for first contact analysis. :)
